Download or read book Participatory Heritage written by Henriette Roued-Cunliffe and published by Facet Publishing. This book was released on 2017-01-18 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The internet as a platform for facilitating human organization without the need for organizations has, through social media, created new challenges for cultural heritage institutions. Challenges include but are not limited to: how to manage copyright, ownership, orphan works, open data access to heritage representations and artefacts, crowdsourcing, cultural heritage amateurs, information as a commodity or information as public domain, sustainable preservation, attitudes towards openness and much more. Participatory Heritage uses a selection of international case studies to explore these issues and demonstrates that in order for personal and community-based documentation and artefacts to be preserved and included in social and collective histories, individuals and community groups need the technical and knowledge infrastructures of support that formal cultural institutions can provide. In other words, both groups need each other. Divided into three core sections, this book explores: - Participants in the preservation of cultural heritage; exploring heritage institutions and organizations, community archives and group - Challenges; including discussion of giving voices to communities, social inequality, digital archives, data and online sharing - Solutions; discussing open access and APIs, digital postcards, the case for collaboration, digital storytelling and co-designing heritage practice. Readership: This book will be useful reading for individuals working in cultural institutions such as libraries, museums, archives and historical societies. It will also be of interest to students taking library, archive and cultural heritage courses.

Book excerpt: How have the lives of people in your past, inspired lives of faith in your family today? Are there stories you share with family and friends, that demonstrate the loving care of God? This book is a collection of memories that my children requested to have put in writing so that they will not forget. I hope you, too, will be prompted to preserve your family's stories, for the benefit of your own children and grandchildren. Included in this book are principles for living lives of faith, and some parenting suggestions that come from multiple sources. These were also requested by my adult kids. Several are now parents themselves. They find themselves using phrases they remember from our home. Now they want some explanation of their origins and application. I have tried to honor the memory and examples of those who lived before us. This book is also meant to challenge this generation to intentionally invest in the spiritual lives of their children, in order to raise the next generation who will know and live for God. These spiritual investments will become the legacy of faith God asks us to leave. Psalm 145:4 says, "One generation will praise Your works to another, and will declare Your mighty acts." May our faith stories collectively bring much glory to God. Ruth Christenson is a pastor's wife and mother of seven children. She grew up in Brooklyn, New York, where she lived until she graduated college. Ruth spent 27 years as a homeschool mom. She has frequently been asked to share principles of discipleship and parenting to help other parents lead their children to know and love God. Ruth manages a Book and Gift Store at a Christian Conference Center. When free to travel, she loves to spend time with her kids and grandchildren.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a rapidly evolving world, where ancient traditions and cultural knowledge are increasingly at risk of being forgotten, GRACE: Timekeepers of Ancient Cultural Legacy takes readers on an extraordinary journey through the efforts to safeguard humanity's most precious heritage. Born from the visionary minds behind the Advocacy Unified Network (AUN) and headquartered in Santipur, West Bengal, GRACE (Global Repository for Ancient Cultural Endeavours) stands as a beacon of hope in the realm of cultural preservation. This groundbreaking initiative, originally conceived in The Hague, Netherlands, aims to protect and promote ancient cultural traditions, artifacts, and knowledge systems for future generations. This book delves deep into the critical importance of preserving ancient cultural heritage in the face of mounting global challenges such as urbanization, climate change, and conflicts. From exploring the profound threats that jeopardize historical sites and traditional practices to highlighting the latest technologies, including AI-driven tools, 3D scanning, and virtual reality, GRACE: Timekeepers of Ancient Cultural Legacy presents a comprehensive and innovative approach to cultural preservation. Through a richly woven narrative, the book unpacks GRACE's founding mission, its strategic global presence, and its commitment to interdisciplinary research and education initiatives. Readers will discover how GRACE collaborates with governments, NGOs, cultural institutions, and local communities across the world to champion the cause of heritage protection. From digital archiving methods to successful case studies of community-led preservation projects, the book offers inspiring examples of how ancient legacies are being preserved with a forward-thinking approach.

With an emphasis on global collaboration, GRACE showcases the successes and challenges faced in building an interconnected, international network of cultural advocates. It addresses ethical questions about cultural ownership, intellectual property rights, and the restitution of artifacts while offering solutions to the delicate balance between cultural preservation and autonomy. Authored by a dedicated young team under the mentorship of global cultural experts, this book serves as a testament to their commitment and passion for preserving the legacies of the past. Dr. Rajendran Govender from Durban, South Africa, plays a pivotal role in guiding GRACE, sharing his vast experience to mentor the organization as it grows into the global force it was dreamt to be. At its core, GRACE: Timekeepers of Ancient Cultural Legacy is more than a call to action—it is a compelling vision for the future of cultural preservation. It challenges readers to rethink the ways in which heritage can be safeguarded, not only through traditional means but through the lens of modern technology and global cooperation. As GRACE continues to evolve, this book invites the world to take part in the mission to protect and celebrate humanity's shared cultural treasures.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Land Remembered has become Florida's favorite novel. Now this Student Edition in two volumes makes this rich, rugged story of the American pioneer spirit more accessible to young readers. Patrick Smith tells of three generations of the MacIveys, a Florida family battling the hardships of the frontier. The story opens in 1858, when Tobias and Emma MacIvey arrive in the Florida wilderness with their son, Zech, to start a new life, and ends in 1968 with Solomon MacIvey, who realizes that his wealth has not been worth the cost to the land. Between is a sweeping story rich in Florida history with a cast of memorable characters who battle wild animals, rustlers, Confederate deserters, mosquitoes, starvation, hurricanes, and freezes to carve a kingdom out of the Florida swamp. In this volume, meet young Zech MacIvey, who learns to ride like the wind through the Florida scrub on Ishmael, his marshtackie horse, his dogs, Nip and Tuck, at this side. His parents, Tobias and Emma, scratch a living from the land, gathering wild cows from the swamp and herding them across the state to market. Zech learns the ways of the land from the Seminoles, with whom his life becomes entwined as he grows into manhood. Next in series > > See all of the books in this series

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Through memoir style writing, author Sylvia Hoehns Wright demonstrates on the pages of Eco-legacy - a millennium woman's heritage the importance of a woman pondering her life in all its phases, from the beginning experienced to the future desired. Inviting readers to walk on a path worn smooth by generational expectation, Wright savors nostalgia for places that are near and dear to heart, recalls family traditions; and perhaps more importantly, enables renewal of experience. Challenging all to celebrate heritage because heritage is more than a possession, it is a gift: the birthright of our children. The present-day caretaker for her family's 7th generational property, Wright credits the legacy of a rural Virginia childhood and Quaker lifestyle belief - view self as caretaker, not owner of property: a perspective of providing for present without sacrificing future - as the source for her eco commitment.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: They Came By Ship: The Stories of the Calitrani Immigrants in America is the product of the Internet Age which brought together people researching their roots to their ancestral town of Calitri in Southern Italy. They came to know one another and, in many cases, rekindled old friendships and discovered distant relatives in second and third cousins. They began sharing stories on the Net of the good old days, recalling neighborhoods where their parents and grandparents had settled after emigrating from Italy. These communities included Brooklyn, New Rochelle, Tarrytown, Dobbs Ferry, Batavia, Mount Vernon in New York; Montclair, Paterson, Newark in New Jersey; Stamford, Bridgeport, Torrington in Connecticut; Dunmore in Pennsylvania; Washington, DC and Pittsfield, MA. Their recollections proved to be so interesting and poignant to all that they needed to be set down in permanent form and preserved for future generations. Mario Toglia of New York initiated this book project with Josephine Galgano Gore, Angela Cicoira Moloney, Fred Rabasca, Rick Morris and Mary Margotta Basile, descendents of original immigrants from Calitri. The book contains over 100 personal and biographical stories, which illustrate various aspects of the lives, traditions and customs of the Calitrani community within the Italian immigrant experience. Also included are several newspaper articles and obituaries, as well as a list of more than 4000 Calitrani names who settled in America.

Download or read book Preserving Whose City? written by Brian J. Godfrey and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2021-04-28 with total page 253 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With Brazil’s largest concentration of historic landmarks and famous landscapes, Rio de Janeiro’s passionate heritage debates have helped to define both the city and the country. Taking a critical preservationist stance, Brian Godfrey explores how historic designation and urban rebranding have shaped Rio’s distinctive sense of place. Official heritage programs date from the 1930s, when federal authorities centralized power and promoted nationalism. The city began a heritage-based strategy of urban revitalization and rebranding in the 1980s––the “Cultural Corridor” of historic places downtown. Subsequent rediscovery of the old “Little Africa” district and continuing struggles of favela communities have emphasized narratives of “counter-memory” against racism, social injustice, and governmental neglect. Meanwhile environmental activism has encouraged programs to conserve the historic landscapes of Rio’s famous mountains, forests, beaches, and bays. While historic preservation often presumes to conserve or restore heritage sites according to a preexisting authenticity, Godfrey shows how the past actually becomes a resource for present-day interests. Memory brokers have guided the reinvention of historic places, determining whose past has been preserved. Debates over the “right of remembrance,” he argues, shape place memories and identities in this spectacular if highly unequal megacity, which has much to teach the world about conserving cultural diversity and urban environments.
