Download or read book Autumn Equinox written by Jabbūr Duwayhī and published by University of Arkansas Press. This book was released on 2001-01-01 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jabbour Douaihy's Autumn Equinox is the diary of a young man recently returned to his Lebanese village after attending college in the United States. It continues from the end of May through the September equinox of 1986, detailing his efforts to remake himself by his adjusting his reading, writing, and eating habits; his dress; his relationships. The diary begins with a description of an Israeli bombing in South Lebanon and ends with a description of refugee families fleeing to his village. Otherwise, the Lebanese Civil War intrudes very little into the narrative; however, violence is a constant undercurrent in the life of the village. America, is a far-away land of nostalgia. The village is here, at the center of the young man's narration, peopled by comic characters who insist on their unique identities and resist his attempts to be different. The Civil War and the Occupation, the author seems to be saying, are not the only sources of turmoil. Violence and revenge have long been part of the people's consciousness, and one might indeed need to redefine oneself in order to adapt to one's environment.

Book Synopsis PaGaian Cosmology by : Glenys Livingstone
Download or read book PaGaian Cosmology written by Glenys Livingstone and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2005 with total page 357 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: PaGaian Cosmology brings together a religious practice of seasonal ritual based in a contemporary scientific sense of the cosmos and female imagery for the Sacred. The author situates this original synthesis in her context of being female and white European transplanted to the Southern Hemisphere. Her sense of alienation from her place, which is personal, cultural and cosmic, fires a cosmology that re-stories Goddess metaphor of Virgin-Mother-Crone as a pattern of Creativity, which unfolds the cosmos, manifests in Earth's life, and may be known intimately. PaGaian Cosmology is an ecospirituality grounded in indigenous Western religious celebration of the Earth-Sun annual cycle. By linking to story of the unfolding universe this practice can be deepened, and a sense of the Triple Goddess-central to the cycle and known in ancient cultures-developed as a dynamic innate to all being. The ritual scripts and the process of ritual events presented here, may be a journey into self-knowledge through personal, communal and ecological story: the self to be known is one that is integral with place. PaGaian Cosmology may be used as a resource for individuals or groups seeking new forms of devotional expression and an Earth-based pathway to wisdom within.

Book Synopsis Agriculture and Korean Economic History by : Seong Ho Jun
Download or read book Agriculture and Korean Economic History written by Seong Ho Jun and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2019-09-09 with total page 215 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is an economic history of the Chosŏn dynasty (1392-1910). The Chosŏn dynasty is not only known for managing the northeastern regions of Asia for 500 years as the exemplars of Confucianism, their kingdom was also one of the greatest so-called “agricultural states under Heaven.” The Chosŏn dynasty has been briefly explored academically by Western scholars, but their findings have some limitations. The period of 1400-1600, in particular, has been too poorly reported on in the English language to gain the attention of the Western knowledge society. This book aims to fill the gaps in the existing research and will be of interest to economists, scholars of Korean history, agriculturists, and ecologists.
