Book Synopsis Take the Silk Road Home by : Barry Terenna
Download or read book Take the Silk Road Home written by Barry Terenna and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2012-07-01 with total page 269 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two very different brothers, grow up in a close Italian-American family in a small town in Westchester County, New York. The responsible younger brother aids his reckless brother through the trials of his life. The book traces the journey of each brother through the 1960's to the present day, relating their careers, loves, and relationship with one another and the women in their lives. The story begins hundreds of years earlier with a glimpse of ancestors past, revealing very famous ties and ultimately leads to the curious events in the lives of both brothers.

Cultures and national heritage enrich the human interactions and connections between friends, families and lovers and show that different backgrounds are less important to relationships than human emotions.

Download or read book Becoming Other written by Alex Gillespie and published by IAP. This book was released on 2006-12-01 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The research reported in this book is unapologetically Meadian. While the work of George Herbert Mead has been of widespread significance, and his name is often cited, there are in fact few empirical studies that have sought to rigorously instantiate his ideas. This is in part because his theory is abstruse and in part because there have been so many divergent interpretations of his theory. The point of departure for the present research is a novel interpretation of Mead. Mead’s core problematic, I argue, is how to explain self-reflection, and his answer to this is the theory of the social act. The present research is an attempt to instantiate this reading. This book puts to rest any glorification of postmodernist belief in the local nature of knowledge and context specificity of human cultural acts as a part of the image of fragmented human lives. Human beings are differentiated and hierarchically integrated wholes who regulate their own organization by cultural means. This conceptual deathblow to postmodernist ideologies is done here without denying the reality of context specificity. In fact, all the evidence in this book shows that each and every moment in the touring act is context bound, and hence unique. Yet there is generality operating upon—and creating—that uniqueness. The author’s careful development of theoretical insights George Herbert Mead reached in his self-dialogues almost a century ago is a new step in the development of cultural psychology as a Wissenschaft aiming at making sense of the human conditions in its generic ways. This itself is an exploring act—one that the social sciences need very much at our present time of abundance of fragmented bits and pieces of information about “the others” that lead us to search for our own unified selves through invention of new ways for touring.

Book Synopsis Tibetan Environmentalists in China by : Liu Jianqiang
Download or read book Tibetan Environmentalists in China written by Liu Jianqiang and published by Lexington Books. This book was released on 2015-12-24 with total page 351 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book weaves together the life stories of five extraordinary contemporary Tibetans involved in environmental protection (as well as a host of secondary characters): Tashi Dorje, a well-known and celebrated environmentalist; Karma Samdrup, a philanthropist, businessman, and environmentalist; Rinchen Samdrup, Karma’s brother, another extraordinary environmentalist; Gendun, a painter, historian, and researcher from Amdo; and Musuo, a Tibetan from the Dechin area of northwest Yunnan who founded the Khawakarpo Culture Society. In the politically fraught and ever-worsening situation for Tibetans within China today, it is often said that the only possible path for a better solution will be through a change in the way that the majority Chinese society thinks about and understands Tibetans, their aspirations, histories, and desires. This book provides the first such account by drawing readers in with beautiful narrative prose and fascinating stories, and then using their attention to demystify Tibetans, cultivating in the reader a sense of empathy as well as facts upon which to rebuild an intercultural understanding. It is the first work that seriously aims to let the Chinese public understand Tibetans as both products of an admirable culture and as complex individuals negotiating religious ideals, economic change, and sociopolitical constraints. In short it opens up a whole new way of understanding Tibet.

Download or read book Being Bollywood written by Viraj Suparsad and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-10-14 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Through engaging media coverage of the public lives of Bollywood actresses, this book unveils understandings of idealized femininity and gender within this cultural context. Beyond its own borders, such a context is unique given the global relevance of content from and about Bollywood with members of the diaspora as well as those culturally Indian individuals that are no longer part of the diaspora. This book thus engages these actresses as global Indian celebrities who are framed and presented as contemporary urban Indian exemplars of gender via media coverage about them. The book therefore offers a robust and detailed case study of the Bollywood star system so as to demonstrate how the nuances of this unique cultural context influence the dimensions of postfeminism and celebrity culture therein.

Book excerpt: Life Lessons through Music Shortlisted for The Age Non-fiction Book of the Year; People's Choice, Queensland Books of the Year; Booksellers' Choice Non-fiction Book of the Year. How can we pause long enough to repair ourselves? How can we make space and time in our lives to know ourselves? One way is through music - learning music, listening to music, being open to music. Because music consoles and restores us. Through music, whether we are listening or playing, we know ourselves more intimately, more honestly, and more clearly with every note. And with every note, music offers us a hand to the beyond. Through music, we can say what we didn't even know we felt. This book is an ode to music, and a celebration of humanity's greatest creation. It is not a call to arms, but a call to instruments. In music, Ed Ayres finds answers to the big questions life throws at us. Using personal anecdotes - including those relating to his transition from Emma to Ed - and observations from teaching and learning music, Ed finds hope in our desire to become whole, with some simple music lessons along the way. PRAISE 'Whole Notes may appear to be about music, but really, it's simply about how to be kind and how to listen without judgement. Which is the best definition of love, no?'

Download or read book The Swami written by Ashish Chand and published by Notion Press. This book was released on 2018-08-16 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Man’s journey from peak to valley is always painful. The reason is either ignorance or carelessness. Ignorance can be wiped out by self-help. Carelessness leaves one with few antidotes. Swami Chidananda lived to witness India’s journey from a golden era to widespread poverty. He waited silently to find the answer. This book is the story of Swami Chidananda’s tremendous silence. The Swami works smoothly yet vigorously on compelling Indian thought. “We have to find that ever-existing media in which each pilgrim discovers his definition of Truth. We must single out that exact medium in which the practicality of the subject of Spirit is understandable to the ardent pilgrim.” The Swami is the story of a few who, while continuing in their individual journeys, were driven to look into such a perennial dictum. Genuine questioning only de-questioned them. Now the answers were not needed…even the questions were not there…
