Book Synopsis Storytelling in Participatory Arts with Young People by : Catherine Heinemeyer
Download or read book Storytelling in Participatory Arts with Young People written by Catherine Heinemeyer and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-06-30 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book draws on the author’s experience as a storyteller, drama practitioner and researcher, to articulate an emerging dialogic approach to storytelling in participatory arts, educational, mental health, youth theatre, and youth work contexts. It argues that oral storytelling offers a rich and much-needed channel for intergenerational dialogue with young people. The book keeps theory firmly tethered to practice. Section 1, ‘Storyknowing’, traces the history of oral storytelling practice with adolescents across diverse contexts, and brings into clear focus the particular nature of the storytelling exchange and narrative knowledge. Section 2, ‘Telling Stories’, introduces readers to some of the key challenges and possibilities of dialogic storytelling by reflecting on stories from the author’s own arts-based practice research with adolescents, illustrating these with young people’s artistic responses to stories. Finally, section 3, ‘Story Gaps’, conceptualises dialogic storytelling by exploring three different ‘gaps’: the gap between storyteller and listener, the gaps in the story, and the gaps which storytellers can open up within institutions. The book includes chapters taking a special focus on storytelling in schools and in mental health settings, as well as guided reflections for readers to relate the issues raised to their own practice.
Book Synopsis The Humane Gardener by : Nancy Lawson
Download or read book The Humane Gardener written by Nancy Lawson and published by Chronicle Books. This book was released on 2017-04-18 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this eloquent plea for compassion and respect for all species, journalist and gardener Nancy Lawson describes why and how to welcome wildlife to our backyards. Through engaging anecdotes and inspired advice, profiles of home gardeners throughout the country, and interviews with scientists and horticulturalists, Lawson applies the broader lessons of ecology to our own outdoor spaces. Detailed chapters address planting for wildlife by choosing native species; providing habitats that shelter baby animals, as well as birds, bees, and butterflies; creating safe zones in the garden; cohabiting with creatures often regarded as pests; letting nature be your garden designer; and encouraging natural processes and evolution in the garden. The Humane Gardener fills a unique niche in describing simple principles for both attracting wildlife and peacefully resolving conflicts with all the creatures that share our world.

Book Synopsis In The Service Of God and Evil by : Donald Britton Conrad
Download or read book In The Service Of God and Evil written by Donald Britton Conrad and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2013-02-18 with total page 521 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At the conclusion of the dinner, Chancellor Theobald Bethmann-Hollweg opened the congratulatory part of the program with a toast to His Imperial and Royal Majesty Wilhelm II Hohenzollern, by the Grace of God, German Emperor and King of Prussia. We, the assembled here, renew our faith in a man so various that he seems guided by the Grace and hand of God. Long live our Emperor!” “Hoch! Hoch! Hoch!” exclaimed the guests, each one clinking his neighbors’ wine glass. “Due to the long list of tonight’s speakers, it has been agreed that each personage will limit their speeches to five minutes. At the end of the ceremonies, guests are welcome to view the many gifts presented to His Majesty in honor of his twenty-fifth anniversary.” “With His Majesty’s permission, I wish to present Herr Andrew Carnegie from America. Herr Carnegie, a Scottish-born American is an industrialist turned philanthropist. As is well known worldwide, he built Pittsburgh’s Carnegie Steel Company. With his fortune made, the man of humble beginnings turned to philanthropy with special interests in education.” “With unselfish thoughts, he founded the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace. From his adopted Pennsylvania home, he endowed the Carnegie University and Carnegie museums. Over the years, his generosity led to the establishment of many libraries, schools, and universities in America.” “In spite of his busy daily schedule, Andrew Carnegie found time to write several books, including the well received ‘Gospel of Wealth, and dozens of magazine and newspaper articles.” ‘It is with great pleasure that I offer the podium to Herr Andrew Carnegie.” “Thank you, Chancellor Bethmann-Hollweg.” The Chancellor who stood a foot higher than the American bent forward to shake Carnegie’s hand which led to a titter among the audience. After spreading his notepaper on the lectern, the philanthropist turned to the Emperor. “Thank you very much, Your Majesty, for inviting me here today.” Wilhelm nodded several times exposing a broad grin. Carnegie’s carefully trimmed white beard glowed under a dozen closely placed incandescent lights. The audience saw a kindly, old man’s face that looked more like a favorite uncle that a millionaire. “I bring greetings and congratulations to His Majesty from the great metropolis of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania populated by a half-million German descendents.” His voice revealed a hint of Scottish burr. “The world’s greatest steel producing center lies between the Allegheny and Monongahela Rivers that join to create the great Ohio River that opened the West to adventurous Americans.” “At the time Germany was unified in 1871, Pittsburgh was a village of 75,000 inhabitants. Today, it is a thriving metropolis, the fifth largest city in the United States. It was steel that created work for thousands of families. Steel provided them with schools, hospitals, fine roads and tall buildings.” “At the same time we learned that Berlin was on a parallel growth pattern. I believe that such growth is the result of peace throughout both lands. We can all agree that war is absent as economic growth brings full bellies and general happiness to the people.” The audience shouted, “Hoch! Hoch! Hoch!” “I want to share with you a secret I’ve kept for many years. I am not only an industrialist, I am a preacher.” The audience fell silent awaiting an explanation from the diminutive elder. “Yes, dear friends I am a preacher, but a very special type. I preach peace. I preach the peace that our Lord Jesus Christ desired for all mankind. As I turn and face his Majesty Wilhelm II, I see a man who also preaches peace for the world.” “When I first met the Emperor a decade ago, he told me that Europe is too small to be divided into so many small states. He said that he had long considered a plan for a federation of Europe. I asked him what such a scheme would accomplish.
Download or read book In An Instant written by Kim Mooney and published by FriesenPress. This book was released on 2024-05-03 with total page 187 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book recounts the stories of nine ordinary people. In an instant their lives changed forever. These are their stories of how resilience and courage helped them find a way forward. Through their stories, the concept of resilience and courage are explored. Each story is unique and how their resilience and courage emerged is equally unique. Experts in the field of reliance and grit talk about key factors that support a resilient nature. Having a good circle of friends, having a purpose in life, and understanding yourself are just a few. I learned that a sense of humour was also critical. Each person described at least one moment when laughter eased the sadness. And for a couple of my storytellers, belief in a higher power was essential. How and when these elements surfaced was different for each person. Being resilient reminded them that despite that tragic instant, their lives were worth living and they would find a path forward where the sun would shine again. Loss touches all of us. Resilience and courage are what get us through. As you read the stories in this book, you will be reminded of how strong you are—how in the face of loss, you found a way forward.
Download or read book Cicada Summer written by Maureen Leurck and published by Kensington Books. This book was released on 2017-07-25 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this moving, witty novel, author Maureen Leurck explores the intricacies and joys of renovation and rediscovery—as one woman’s improvement project promises to transform much more than a home . . . People keep a house alive, not the other way around. Alex Proctor has seen the truth of this in every empty, rundown property she’s bought and renovated since her divorce almost three years ago. She’s also experienced the thrill of making each one into a home. Her newest project is a dilapidated, century-old house just a few blocks from Geneva Lake, Wisconsin. Time and neglect, along with rats and raccoons, have ravaged it inside and out. Only Alex can see the beauty of what it once was and might become again. In just a few weeks—by the time the cicadas make their scheduled reappearance after seventeen years underground—the house should be ready to sell. In the meantime, there are construction disasters, and surprises, to contend with. Amid overgrown grounds and rooms brimming with debris, Alex finds treasures—pocket doors, hardwood floors hidden beneath layers of linoleum and grime—and carved initials that reveal a long-ago love story involving Alex’s elderly neighbor, Elsie, and another cicada summer. At the same time, Alex finds herself searching for a way to reconcile her new life with lingering feelings for her ex-husband. For so long she felt sure that moving on was the only option, but maybe this house, and everything she’s learning in it, could give Alex room for a second chance . . . “A captivating novel about the power of redemption.” —Jen Lancaster, New York Times bestselling author
