Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Example in this ebook I KODIN ULOTTUVILLA 1. Leuto tuulenhenki keinutteli kepeästi paraillaan heilimöivää ruista, hipaisi kesäpukuisia pellonpientareita, pujottelihe läpi valkoisinaan kukkivien pihlajien ja liiteli yli pappilan suuren, vanhan puutarhan sieltäkin keräten liepeisiinsä kesän voimakkainta tuoksua. Sitä se sitten karisteli ympärilleen kuin sanoakseen jokaiselle: iloitse ja nauti, kesä on kauneimmillaan! Rovasti pysähtyi astunnassaan, nojasi keppiinsä ja katsoi ympärilleen. Tien toiselta puolelta tuntui mäntymetsän tuoksu, toisella lainehtivat kukkareunaiset pellot. Läheisen veräjän kohdalla oli joukko vielä kukassaan olevia pihlajia. "Morsiusneidoiksi" oli rovastilla tapana nimittää niitä. Itse "morsian" oli pappilan puutarhan ainoa, sinipunertavien sisartensa keskelle kohoutunut valkoinen syreeni. Kun se aukaisi täyteläiset kukkaterttunsa, oli se todella kuin morsian. Silmä katsoi sitä katsomistaan saamatta siitä kyllikseen. Oli kuin kesän koko ihanuus olisi hivellyt katsetta sen häikäisevässä valkeudessa. Tyytyväinen hymy nousi väreilemään rovastin lempeillä kasvoilla. Hän oikaisi kepillään pientä, maahan painunutta metsätähteä samalla kuin toisella hätisteli hyttysiä luotaan, tasaisesti ja hiljaa kuin mahdollisimman vähän häiritäkseen heidän kesäiloaan. Sitten hän uudelleen katseli ympärilleen nauttivasti tyytyväisenä kuin herkuilla nälkäänsä asetteleva lapsi. Tukassa hänellä jo oli paljon harmaita haivenia kasvoissa vielä enemmän vuosien sinne uurtamia ryppyjä. Monta kymmentä kertaa hän jo oli seurannut tätä luonnon puhkeamista keväästä kesäksi. Mutta aina se vaikutti hänen sisimpäänsä samalla vastustamattomalla voimalla. Sielu eli mukana luonnon heräämisessä. Mitä silloin merkitsivät pään harmahtavat haivenet? — Ai, ai, joko minä nyt taas!… Rovasti havahtui kuin unesta ja alkoi astua keputella männikön toiselle puolelle, missä uusi riihi oli kohoamassa pellon laitaan. Pari miestä paitahihasillaan ja otsa hiessä oli nostamassa seinää. — Taitaa tulla kuuma, liiaksikin, puheli rovasti tervehdittyään. — Ei ole työ hauskaa huonolla säällä, mutta ei ole helppo helteessäkään kirvestä heilutella. — Eihän se sen puolesta. — Toinen miehistä pyyhkäisi otsaansa. — Mutta tehtävä on. Mitenkäpä meikäläinen muuten tulisi toimeen! Toinenkin miehistä lakkasi tasoittelemasta hirrenkylkeä. — Olisi vähän tarvis rahaa. Juhannuskin on tulossa, sanoi hän harvakseen. Rovastin käsi tapaili kohta kukkaroa housuntaskusta. — Vai rahaa. No kuinka paljon? — Jos nyt kaksikymmentä. — Tai kaksikymmentäviisi — ehdotteli rovasti. — Parempi päälle kuin vaille, eikö niin? — Hän oli jo vetämässä seteleitä kukkarosta, kun ote katkesi kesken. Oli ehkä ollut varomatonta ehdottaa lisääkin. Tämä Koskinen oli vähän heikko luonteeltaan ja juhlat oli tulossa. Mutta olihan hän jo oikeastaan jättänyt juopottelun, oli liittynyt raittiusseuraankin. Setelit nousivat kukkarosta ja painuivat Koskisen kurotettuun käteen. — Jos tähellisen hankittuasi jää tähdettä, niin ostathan vaikka vehnästä lapsillesi, tuli isällisesti. — Ja Kustille myös, muista, Kustille myös. Sellaisia lapsia ei saa hyleksiä. Elämä on heille muutenkin kovaa. Koskinen työnteli vastaamatta rahoja kukkaroonsa. Sitten käsi kiitokseksi nousi sipaisemaan lakin reunaa niin, että lakki työntyi kappaleen matkaa niskaan. Kohta sen jälkeen heilahti jo kirves ja lastut alkoivat sinkoilla. Rovastin silmä jäi ihailevasti silmäilemään työnalla olevaa puuta. Se oli oikein ensiluokan hirsiä ja sen valkoinen kylki paistoi auringon valossa. Pihkaa oli pursunut esille muutamasta halkeamasta. Tuoreen puun tuoksu ja pihkan haju sekottuivat lauhaan tuulenviimaan, joka hyväilevän kepeästi pyyhkäisi ohi. Tuossa kaikessa oli kuin elämän ja kesän ylistystä. Rovasti tunsi sen. Ja hän tunsi myöskin, että elämä kaikesta huolimatta oli ihanaa. Mutta siinä oli paljon muutakin kuin ihanuutta. To be continue in this ebook

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This series of HANDBOOKS OF LINGUISTICS AND COMMUNICATION SCIENCE is designed to illuminate a field which not only includes general linguistics and the study of linguistics as applied to specific languages, but also covers those more recent areas which have developed from the increasing body of research into the manifold forms of communicative action and interaction. For "classic" linguistics there appears to be a need for a review of the state of the art which will provide a reference base for the rapid advances in research undertaken from a variety of theoretical standpoints, while in the more recent branches of communication science the handbooks will give researchers both an verview and orientation. To attain these objectives, the series will aim for a standard comparable to that of the leading handbooks in other disciplines, and to this end will strive for comprehensiveness, theoretical explicitness, reliable documentation of data and findings, and up-to-date methodology. The editors, both of the series and of the individual volumes, and the individual contributors, are committed to this aim. The languages of publication are English, German, and French. The main aim of the series is to provide an appropriate account of the state of the art in the various areas of linguistics and communication science covered by each of the various handbooks; however no inflexible pre-set limits will be imposed on the scope of each volume. The series is open-ended, and can thus take account of further developments in the field. This conception, coupled with the necessity of allowing adequate time for each volume to be prepared with the necessary care, means that there is no set time-table for the publication of the whole series. Each volume will be a self-contained work, complete in itself. The order in which the handbooks are published does not imply any rank ordering, but is determined by the way in which the series is organized; the editor of the whole series enlist a competent editor for each individual volume. Once the principal editor for a volume has been found, he or she then has a completely free hand in the choice of co-editors and contributors. The editors plan each volume independently of the others, being governed only by general formal principles. The series editor only intervene where questions of delineation between individual volumes are concerned. It is felt that this (modus operandi) is best suited to achieving the objectives of the series, namely to give a competent account of the present state of knowledge and of the perception of the problems in the area covered by each volume.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The influence of the lifespan approach has been an important feature of recent research in developmental psychology, as has a growing interest in the relationship between personality and development. This important new book, edited by two distinguished psychologists, explores the relationship between personality and development from a life-course perspective. The book presents current theoretical approaches and new empirical findings from ongoing studies conducted by leading researchers in North America and Europe. It is unique in focussing on successful personality development, where developmental psychology in the past seems to have focussed almost entirely on problem behaviour and risk of maladaption. The book has a multidisciplinary appeal and will be of interest to students and researchers in the fields of developmental psychology, adult development and aging, and personality and social psychology.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Victorian England, the perception of girlhood arose not in isolation, but as one manifestation of the prevailing conception of femininity. Examining the assumptions that underlay the education and upbringing of middle-class girls, this book is also a study of the learning of gender roles in theory and reality. It was originally published in 1982. The first two sections examine the image of women in the Victorian family, and the advice offered in printed sources on the rearing of daughters during the Victorian period. To illustrate the effect and evolution of feminine ideals over the Victorian period, the book’s final section presents the actual experiences of several middle-class Victorian women who represent three generations and range, socioeconomically, from lower-middle class through upper-middle class.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Home is simultaneously both a place-bounded anchor and a spatially open structure that changes over time. It is a meeting place of inhabitants, culture, past and present -- a multidimensional spatial and temporal intersection. Within the domestic space private and public, personal histories and shared cultural meanings overlap. This original and timely book moves in the tense area between home as a dynamic space with leaking boundaries and a stable, intimate, and secure shelter of one's own. Instead of trying to define what home is, the book explores home both as an idea and location in a variety of contexts. It examines the questions of home, inhabiting and belonging by focusing on home as historical, cultural, material, emotional, technological, gendered, and sexualised space. This book challenges the prevalent notion of home as a static shelter and emphasises home as a dynamic process. Home and its meanings are formed in the movement and daily use of space. As a dynamic process, home is not a container of social processes; it is a social process. By analysing a variety of phenomena from art to the Internet and everyday spaces from the late nineteenth-century to the early twenty-first-century the authors offer tools for the re-conceptualisation of home.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The home is, for many people, the location for their most intense relationships with visual things. Because they are constructed through the objects we choose, domestic spaces are deeply revealing of a range of cultural issues. How is our interpretation of an object affected by the domestic environment in which it is placed? Why choose a stainless steel teapot over a leopard print one? How do the images hanging on the walls of our homes arrive there? In placing contemporary art in the context of the ordinary home, this book embarks on the contentious topic of whether high art impacts on ordinary people. What is the size and nature of the audience for contemporary art in Britain? Do people really visit more art galleries than attend football matches? What is the significance of the home in relation to such questions? Indeed, what constitutes art in the home? This book carefully unpicks these questions as well as the troubled relationship between the home as a place of comfort and reassurance and the often unsettling and challenging images offered by contemporary art. Within the art world, the home has been addressed as a subject and even used as a temporary gallery and a space for installations, and yet it is not common for works by todays avant-garde artists to be conceived and marketed to participate in the domestic lives that most people live. Handsomely illustrated, this book unites contemporary art, craft and design, with sociology, anthropology and cultural studies to provide an unusual and forthright addition to ongoing art and culture debates.

Book excerpt: Exploring materialism and social relationships in modern culture Material Culture and Mass Consumption offers an in-depth exploration of objects, objectification, ideology, and materialism in modern society. Drawing from Hegel, Marx, Munn, and Simmel, the discussion delves into the physicality of the material world and attempts to understand materialism as a form of cultural expression. Targeting mass production as the root of mass consumption, rather than the result, this book positions material goods at odds with genuine social interaction and questions these relationships from the abstract to the intensely specific.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two of the key theoretical shifts over the past two decades of critical work have been the 'visual turn' and the 'material turn'. This book argues that these hitherto distinct fields should be understood as in continual dialogue and co-constitution and focuses on reconceptualising the visual as an embodied, material, and often politically-charged realm. This edited volume elaborates this conceptual argument through a series of contemporary case studies, drawn from the disciplines of Architecture, Sociology, Media Studies, Geography and Cultural Studies. The case studies included are paired around four themes: consumption, translation, practice and ethics. As well as exploring the bringing together of visuality and materiality studies, the contributors raise questions of social identity and social critique, and also focus on the ethics of material visualities.
