Book Synopsis Relatively Speaking by : Alan Ayckbourn
Download or read book Relatively Speaking written by Alan Ayckbourn and published by Samuel French, Inc.. This book was released on 1968 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The play opens in the flat of Greg and Ginny, a young co-habiting couple, Ginny being the more sexually experienced. Greg finds a strange pair of slippers under the bed and is too besotted to believe they might have been left by another man (which would also explain the bunches of flowers and boxes of sweets filling Ginny's apartment). Ginny goes off for a day in the country, supposedly to visit her parents but actually to break things off with her older married lover, Philip. Greg decides to follow her. The next scene is on the patio at the home of Philip and his befuddled wife Sheila, whose marriage is clearly under strain. Greg shows up unannounced before Ginny, and wrongly assumes that they are her parents. Greg asks for her hand from Philip, while Philip mistakenly believes that the strange young man is asking permission to marry Sheila. Once Ginny arrives, she convinces Philip to play the role of her father. Meanwhile, Greg still believes that Sheila is Ginny's mother. The situation becomes increasingly complicated and hilarious.

Book Synopsis Relatively Speaking by : Eve Danziger
Download or read book Relatively Speaking written by Eve Danziger and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2001 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based upon 14 months of ethnographic fieldwork among the Mopan Maya in Belize, Eve Danziger examines the semantic complexity of particular kinship terms used among Mopan women and children and shows that a culture-specific analysis of their terms is superior to other non-ethnographically-based methods. In doing so she contributes not only to theoretical semantics and the ethnography of that area, but to the cross-cultural study of child development and language acquisition.

Book Synopsis Speaking of Race by : Celeste Headlee
Download or read book Speaking of Race written by Celeste Headlee and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2021-11-02 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Boston Globe Most Anticipated Fall Book In this urgently needed guide, the PBS host, award-winning journalist, and author of We Need to Talk teaches us how to have productive conversations about race, offering insights, advice, and support. A self-described “light-skinned Black Jew,” Celeste Headlee has been forced to speak about race—including having to defend or define her own—since childhood. In her career as a journalist for public media, she’s made it a priority to talk about race proactively. She’s discovered, however, that those exchanges have rarely been productive. While many people say they want to talk about race, the reality is, they want to talk about race with people who agree with them. The subject makes us uncomfortable; it’s often not considered polite or appropriate. To avoid these painful discussions, we stay in our bubbles, reinforcing our own sense of righteousness as well as our division. Yet we gain nothing by not engaging with those we disagree with; empathy does not develop in a vacuum and racism won’t just fade away. If we are to effect meaningful change as a society, Headlee argues, we have to be able to talk about what that change looks like without fear of losing friends and jobs, or being ostracized. In Speaking of Race, Headlee draws from her experiences as a journalist, and the latest research on bias, communication, and neuroscience to provide practical advice and insight for talking about race that will facilitate better conversations that can actually bring us closer together. This is the book for people who have tried to debate and educate and argue and got nowhere; it is the book for those who have stopped talking to a neighbor or dread Thanksgiving dinner. It is an essential and timely book for all of us.
Download or read book Stolen Legacy written by Dina Gold and published by Ankerwycke. This book was released on 2016 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This former BBC journalist's passionate search for justice is a suspenseful confrontation with World War II history. A fascinating journey." --Anne-Marie O'Connor, national bestselling author of The Lady in GoldDina Gold grew up hearing her grandmother's tales of the glamorous life in Berlin she once led before the Nazis came to power and her dreams of recovering a huge building she claimed belonged to the family - though she had no papers to prove ownership. When the Wall fell in 1989, Dina decided to battle for restitution. Built by Dina's great grandfather in 1910, the property was the business headquarters of the H. Wolff fur company, one of the largest and most successful in Germany during the early part of the last century. In 1937, the Victoria Insurance Company foreclosed on the mortgage and transferred ownership of Krausenstrasse 17/18 to the Reichsbahn, Hitler's railways, that later transported millions of Jews across Europe to the death camps. The Victoria, headed then by a German businessman and lawyer with connections to the very top of the Nazi Party, is still today one of Germany's leading insurance companies. But during the war it was part of a consortium insuring workshops at Auschwitz. When the Third Reich was defeated in 1945 the building lay in the Soviet sector - just past Checkpoint Charlie - and beyond legal reach.
Book Synopsis Speaking Truth to Power by : Anita Hill
Download or read book Speaking Truth to Power written by Anita Hill and published by Anchor. This book was released on 1998-10-20 with total page 385 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Twenty-six years before the #metoo movement, Anita Hill sparked a national conversation about sexual harassment in the workplace. After her astonishing testimony in the Clarence Thomas hearings, Anita Hill ceased to be a private citizen and became a public figure at the white-hot center of an intense national debate on how men and women relate to each other in the workplace. That debate led to ground-breaking court decisions and major shifts in corporate policies that have had a profound effect on our lives--and on Anita Hill's life. Now, with remarkable insight and total candor, Anita Hill reflects on events before, during, and after the hearings, offering for the first time a complete account that sheds startling new light on this watershed event. Only after reading her moving recollection of her childhood on her family's Oklahoma farm can we fully appreciate the values that enabled her to withstand the harsh scrutiny she endured during the hearings and for years afterward. Only after reading her detailed narrative of the Senate Judiciary proceedings do we reach a new understanding of how Washington--and the media--rush to judgment. And only after discovering the personal toll of this wrenching ordeal, and how Hill copes, do we gain new respect for this extraordinary woman. Here is a vitally important work that allows us to understand why Anita Hill did what she did, and thereby brings resolution to one of the most controversial episodes in our nation's history.

Download or read book Confusions written by Alan Ayckbourn and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2013-12-04 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A student edition of five one-act plays by Britain's most popular playwright. Ayckbourn's series of plays for 4-5 actors typify his black comedies of human behaviour. First produced in 1976, the plays are alternately naturalistic, stylised and farcical, but underlying each is the problem of loneliness. The Mother Figure shows a mother unable to escape from baby talk; in The Drinking Companion an absentee husband attempts seduction without success; in Between Mouthfuls, a waiter oversees a fraught dinner encounter. A garden party gets out of hand in Gosforth's Fete whilst A Talk in the Park is a revue style curtain call piece for the five actors. Whether the comedies concern marital conflict, infidelity or motherhood and take place on a park bench or at a village fete, the characters are familiar and their cries for help instantly recognisable. "Principally he is respected as a radical re-inventor of form" Dominic Dromgoole
Book Synopsis The Full Scoop on BS by : Peter Duncan
Download or read book The Full Scoop on BS written by Peter Duncan and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2014-05 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To truly be the full scoop instead of another load of BS, The Full Scoop on BS differentiates between types that are less or more harmful and reasonably explains why they differ. It examines the roots of that ubiquitous entity and the skill deficits which so often enable the worst kinds of BS. It provides a practical means of detection and eradication of the most-harmful types. In the process, this book promotes conscious, functional thought processes. Humour and anecdotes, and humorous anecdotes, help keep the normally academic concepts tangible, relevant and applicable to most people's lives. Despite the profane aspect of the topic and the sometimes-profane vocabulary of the author, no profanity appears anywhere within. Polite society often condemns profanity even though many past societies were treacherous, murderous and none too polite. Such is the nature of a world filled with BS.
