Book Synopsis Learning to Die in the Anthropocene by : Roy Scranton
Download or read book Learning to Die in the Anthropocene written by Roy Scranton and published by City Lights Publishers. This book was released on 2015-09-07 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In Learning to Die in the Anthropocene, Roy Scranton draws on his experiences in Iraq to confront the grim realities of climate change. The result is a fierce and provocative book."--Elizabeth Kolbert, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of The Sixth Extinction: An Unnatural History "Roy Scranton's Learning to Die in the Anthropocene presents, without extraneous bullshit, what we must do to survive on Earth. It's a powerful, useful, and ultimately hopeful book that more than any other I've read has the ability to change people's minds and create change. For me, it crystallizes and expresses what I've been thinking about and trying to get a grasp on. The economical way it does so, with such clarity, sets the book apart from most others on the subject."--Jeff VanderMeer, author of the Southern Reach trilogy "Roy Scranton lucidly articulates the depth of the climate crisis with an honesty that is all too rare, then calls for a reimagined humanism that will help us meet our stormy future with as much decency as we can muster. While I don't share his conclusions about the potential for social movements to drive ambitious mitigation, this is a wise and important challenge from an elegant writer and original thinker. A critical intervention."--Naomi Klein, author of This Changes Everything: Capitalism vs. the Climate "Concise, elegant, erudite, heartfelt & wise."--Amitav Ghosh, author of Flood of Fire "War veteran and journalist Roy Scranton combines memoir, philosophy, and science writing to craft one of the definitive documents of the modern era."--The Believer Best Books of 2015 Coming home from the war in Iraq, US Army private Roy Scranton thought he'd left the world of strife behind. Then he watched as new calamities struck America, heralding a threat far more dangerous than ISIS or Al Qaeda: Hurricane Katrina, Superstorm Sandy, megadrought--the shock and awe of global warming. Our world is changing. Rising seas, spiking temperatures, and extreme weather imperil global infrastructure, crops, and water supplies. Conflict, famine, plagues, and riots menace from every quarter. From war-stricken Baghdad to the melting Arctic, human-caused climate change poses a danger not only to political and economic stability, but to civilization itself . . . and to what it means to be human. Our greatest enemy, it turns out, is ourselves. The warmer, wetter, more chaotic world we now live in--the Anthropocene--demands a radical new vision of human life. In this bracing response to climate change, Roy Scranton combines memoir, reportage, philosophy, and Zen wisdom to explore what it means to be human in a rapidly evolving world, taking readers on a journey through street protests, the latest findings of earth scientists, a historic UN summit, millennia of geological history, and the persistent vitality of ancient literature. Expanding on his influential New York Times essay (the #1 most-emailed article the day it appeared, and selected for Best American Science and Nature Writing 2014), Scranton responds to the existential problem of global warming by arguing that in order to survive, we must come to terms with our mortality. Plato argued that to philosophize is to learn to die. If that’s true, says Scranton, then we have entered humanity’s most philosophical age--for this is precisely the problem of the Anthropocene. The trouble now is that we must learn to die not as individuals, but as a civilization. Roy Scranton has published in the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, Rolling Stone, Boston Review, and Theory and Event, and has been interviewed on NPR's Fresh Air, among other media.

First Place Most Inspirational Children's Book - International Latino Book Award (ILBA). Thanks to the teachings of our parents and grandparents, there are traditions in our families that are kept alive and carried on to new generations. Each tradition transfers values, goals, dreams, customs, and stories about the family group and the community that shares them, creating a collective identity. Anita and grandma’s Dulce de leche is the story of how Grandma Rosa teaches Anita the family’s recipe, ensuring the continuity of the tradition as a universal act of love between the past and the future.En nuestras familias existen tradiciones que, gracias a la enseñanza por parte de nuestros abuelos y padres, logran mantenerse vivas y se transmiten a las nuevas generaciones.En cada tradición se trasfieren valores, metas, sueños, costumbres e historias del grupo familiar y de la comunidad que las comparte creando una identidad colectiva. Anita y el dulce de leche es la historia de cómo la abuela Rosa le enseña a Anita la receta de la familia, logrando que se conserve la tradición como un acto de amor universal entre el pasado y el futuro. From the Author Writing Anita and Grandma's dulce de leche was an unforgettable experience. Every time I read this story, a smile shows up on my face because Anita is a happy character who inspires with her joy and curiosity. She enjoys playing with her dog Toffee, the Rooster Pambelé, the cat Pandora, and doing activities with her grandparents, Rosa and Fermín. They take advantage of every moment to teach her beautiful stories and family traditions. This time, Grandma Rosa teaches her the Dulce de leche's recipe, a confection typical in many countries, and that is honored in this book, the first volume of the ANITA series. The preparation and tasting of Dulce de leche is a true tradition that connects and integrates Anita's family with the neighbors. Grandma Rosa is proud of her roots and shares this tradition as a gesture of love with her community and life itself. Through their characters, Anita and Grandma's Dulce de leche, allows children to enjoy a story that reflects racial integration and cultural sensitivity. They also learn that traditions are part of human history where cultural aspects and affections are expressed and must be valued as part of a society that promotes diversity, inclusion, and multiculturalism. As an author, I present everyday experiences and approach them to readers naturally and sensitively so that the message becomes a topic of conversation that spreads the seeds of peace and love between human beings and nature. *** Escribir Anita y el dulce de leche de la abuela fue una experiencia inolvidable. Cada vez que leo esta historia, aflora en mi rostro una sonrisa. Y es que Anita es un personaje feliz, que contagia con su alegría y su curiosidad. Ella disfruta jugar con con su perro Toffee, el gallo Pambelé y la gata Pandora, y hacer actividades con sus abuelos, Rosa y Fermín, quienes aprovechan cada momento para enseñarle hermosas historias y tradiciones de la familia. En esta oportunidad, la abuela Rosa le enseña la receta del dulce de leche, delicia que es típica en muchos países y que se honra en este primer libro de la serie ANITA. La preparación y el deguste del dulce, es una verdadera tradición que conecta e integra a la familia con los vecinos y el entorno. La abuela Rosa se siente orgullosa de sus raíces y comparte esta tradición como un gesto de amor con su comunidad. En Anita y el dulce de leche de la abuela, aprendemos que las tradiciones tienen historia y que reflejan aspectos culturales y afectos que deben ser valorados como parte de una sociedad que promueve la diversidad, la inclusión y el multiculturalismo. Como autora, presento experiencias de la cotidianidad y las acerco a los lectores de una forma natural y sensible para que el mensaje se convierta en un tema de conversación y/o en un aprendizaje orientado a la paz y el amor entre los seres humanos y la naturaleza.
Book Synopsis A Comparative History of Literatures in the Iberian Peninsula by : Fernando Cabo Aseguinolaza
Download or read book A Comparative History of Literatures in the Iberian Peninsula written by Fernando Cabo Aseguinolaza and published by John Benjamins Publishing. This book was released on 2010-05-26 with total page 766 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Comparative History of Literatures in the Iberian Peninsula is the second comparative history of a new subseries with a regional focus, published by the Coordinating Committee of the International Comparative Literature Association. As its predecessor for East-Central Europe, this two-volume history distances itself from traditional histories built around periods and movements, and explores, from a comparative viewpoint, a space considered to be a powerful symbol of inter-literary relations. Both the geographical pertinence and its symbolic condition are obviously discussed, when not even contested. Written by an international team of researchers who are specialists in the field, this history is the first attempt at applying a comparative approach to the plurilingual and multicultural literatures in the Iberian Peninsula. The aim of comprehensiveness is abandoned in favor of a diverse and extensive array of key issues for a comparative agenda. A Comparative History of Literatures in the Iberian Peninsula undermines the primacy claimed for national and linguistic boundaries, and provides a geo-cultural account of literary inter-systems which cannot otherwise be explained.

Book Synopsis Routine Politics and Violence in Argentina by : Javier Auyero
Download or read book Routine Politics and Violence in Argentina written by Javier Auyero and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2007-04-16 with total page 121 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Close to three hundred stores and supermarkets were looted during week-long food riots in Argentina in December 2001. Thirty-four people were reported dead and hundreds were injured. Among the looting crowds, activists from the Peronist party (the main political party in the country) were quite prominent. During the lootings, police officers were conspicuously absent - particularly when small stores were sacked. Through a combination of archival research, statistical analysis, multi-sited fieldwork, and taking heed of the perspective of contentious politics, this book provides an analytic description of the origins, course, meanings, and outcomes of the December 2001 wave of lootings in Argentina.
Book Synopsis Figurative Inquisitions by : Erin Graff Zivin
Download or read book Figurative Inquisitions written by Erin Graff Zivin and published by Northwestern University Press. This book was released on 2013-01-31 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner, 2015 LAJSA Best Book in Latin American Jewish Studies The practices of interrogation, torture, and confession have resurfaced in public debates since the early 2000s following human rights abuses around the globe. Yet discussion of torture has remained restricted to three principal fields: the legal, the pragmatic, and the moral, eclipsing the less immediate but vital question of what torture does.Figurative Inquisitions seeks to correct this lacuna by approaching the question of torture from a literary vantage point. This book investigates the uncanny presence of the Inquisition and marranismo (crypto-Judaism) in modern literature, theater, and film from Mexico, Brazil, and Portugal. Through a critique of fictional scenes of interrogation, it underscores the vital role of the literary in deconstructing the relation between torture and truth. Figurative Inquisitions traces the contours of a relationship among aesthetics, ethics, and politics in an account of the "Inquisitional logic" that continues to haunt contemporary political forms. In so doing, the book offers a unique humanistic perspective on current torture debates.
