Book Synopsis Carole A. Feuerman by : Carole Feuerman
Download or read book Carole A. Feuerman written by Carole Feuerman and published by Hudson Hills. This book was released on 1999 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Carole A. Feuerman's sculpture combines superrealist technique with a humanist approach to her subjects. This first monograph on her work is filled with David Finn's dramatic photographs covering two decades of her work, including many enlarged details and multiple views, providing a cinematic, almost three-dimensional experience. The work - in resin, cast marble, bronze, and other materials, often painted - ranges from early erotic reliefs through full-scale sculptures of athletes and nudes. Her women at their toilette are sculptural tours-de-force, yet their intimacy recalls Degas's works on similar themes. Recent fragments and body mappings are experiments with abstraction, deconstruction and conceptualism, at the same time that they explore the emotional life of their subjects penetrating to their spirit." "All of Feuerman's work reflects the two aspects of her vision. Her work is motivated by questions about the nature of reality, and her remarkable skill as an artist leads the viewer to the same questions. Yet beyond the simulacrum of reality, Feuerman also manages to convey the feeling behind the intense physicality, the passion and sensuality behind the seemingly mundane pose."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Download or read book Anti-Book written by Nicholas Thoburn and published by U of Minnesota Press. This book was released on 2016-12-15 with total page 383 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: No, Anti-Book is not a book about books. Not exactly. And yet it is a must for anyone interested in the future of the book. Presenting what he terms “a communism of textual matter,” Nicholas Thoburn explores the encounter between political thought and experimental writing and publishing, shifting the politics of text from an exclusive concern with content and meaning to the media forms and social relations by which text is produced and consumed. Taking a “post-digital” approach in considering a wide array of textual media forms, Thoburn invites us to challenge the commodity form of books—to stop imagining books as transcendent intellectual, moral, and aesthetic goods unsullied by commerce. His critique is, instead, one immersed in the many materialities of text. Anti-Book engages with an array of writing and publishing projects, including Antonin Artaud’s paper gris-gris, Valerie Solanas’s SCUM Manifesto, Guy Debord’s sandpaper-bound Mémoires, the collective novelist Wu Ming, and the digital/print hybrid of Mute magazine. Empirically grounded, it is also a major achievement in expressing a political philosophy of writing and publishing, where the materiality of text is interlaced with conceptual production. Each chapter investigates a different form of textual media in concert with a particular concept: the small-press pamphlet as “communist object,” the magazine as “diagrammatic publishing,” political books in the modes of “root” and “rhizome,” the “multiple single” of anonymous authorship, and myth as “unidentified narrative object.” An absorbingly written contribution to contemporary media theory in all its manifestations, Anti-Book will enrich current debates about radical publishing, artists’ books and other new genre and media forms in alternative media, art publishing, media studies, cultural studies, critical theory, and social and political theory.

Download or read book A House of Her Own written by Beth Luey and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2023-10-18 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the founding of the United States, women have picked up their pens to write and express their ideas, affording them independence and self-sufficiency in days when they had little. By way of their poetry, essays, advice columns, investigative journalism and more, women like Helen Keller, Louisa May Alcott, Charlotte Perkins Gilman and Shirley Jackson wrote not only to entertain and inform, but often to simply keep a roof over their heads. This text offers a unique examination of female New England writers, focusing on their homes. The women wrote in many genres and became literary entrepreneurs, bargaining with editors for higher fees and royalties, participating in marketing campaigns, and seeking advice and help. The homes women bought with their earnings included cottages, suburban houses, farms, and an occasional mansion. Whether modest or luxurious, these houses provided the "room of her own" that Virginia Woolf said every woman needs in order to write. Sometimes that room was an elegant study, and sometimes a corner of the kitchen.
Book Synopsis If in Doubt... Believe by : Sherrilyn Polf
Download or read book If in Doubt... Believe written by Sherrilyn Polf and published by Tate Publishing. This book was released on with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It's been over a year since Dena Caulter moved to California and enrolled in Stanford University. The 1940 fall semester brings continuous talk of war and politics. A romantic aura settles on the war effort, enticing many young men and women to enlist. Suddenly, the whispered conversations in Stanford's hallowed halls about those enlisted, those leaving for Europe, those who have died in combat—those names are familiar to Dena. No longer are they faceless strangers. They are acquaintances, friends, even family. The encroaching war also causes revisions in Howard Hughes' programs, which brings many engineers, among them Clay Brewster, back to the West Coast and Stanford U. Happy to have such a handsome distraction, Dena embraces his company. After a whirlwind romance and quick elopement, Dena and Clay settle into their new life. That is, until Clay receives enlistment papers from the Royal Air Force in England. Clay will get to fly, his life's passion, but he's taking Dena's heart with him. Deprived of the fleeting stability in her marriage and her beloved husband, Dena turns to God for peace. Yet when tragedy strikes, will she be able to hold onto her faith? Will she remember what her daddy always says, 'If in doubt...believe, girl, just believe'? 'If In Doubt...Believe is a book that puts you right in the war as you read it... I could not put it down! It made me thankful for the men and women who serve in the armed forces.' Tammy Hannold, Headstart Teacher Niagra Falls, New York 'If In Doubt...Believe is a continuing tale that comes alive due to the characters, the vivid word pictures, and its many historic facts scattered throughout...'

Book Synopsis Twisted Road Home by : Donald L. Ball

Book excerpt: Seasoned detective, Jason Carmichael, is assigned the task of determining the controversial death of a fellow deputy in the mountains east of Sonora, California. Assertions of suicide, a possible accident, or a drug-related hit plague Jason since there is no conclusive evidence to prove either. Sheriff Owen Wheeler assigns a gutsy, self-confident woman as an aide to Jason. Attractive and married, the woman demands the deceased deputy be, at least, afforded the dignity of an official burial. An act she feels will finally bring him home. Having this woman at his side was not Jason's choice, but soon finds out what his life would be without her. A tiny circle is Jason's only compelling evidence to solving the case until their paths cross with that of a rogue cop who makes an unsolicited remark while being questioned as part of another wider investigation. Will Jason condemn this rogue or thank him?

Download or read book Heretic's Heart written by Margot Adler and published by Beacon Press. This book was released on 2013-05-28 with total page 325 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Starting in 1964, writes Margot Adler in this dazzling memoir, “I found myself mysteriously at the center of extraordinary events.” Now a correspondent for National Public Radio, Adler was a young woman determined to be taken seriously and to be an agent of change—on her own terms, free from dogma and authoritarian constraints. From campus activism at the University of California at Berkeley to civil rights work in Mississippi, from antiwar protests to observing the socialist revolution in Cuba, she found those chances in the 1960s. Heretic’s Heart illuminates the events, ideas, passions, and ecstatic commitments of the decade like no other memoir. At the book’s center is the powerful—and unique—correspondence between Adler, then an antiwar activist at Berkeley, and a young American soldier fighting in Vietnam. The correspondence begins when Adler reads a letter the infantryman has written to a Berkeley newspaper. “I’ve heard rumors that there are people back in the world who don’t believe this war should be. I’m not positive of this though, ’cause it seems to me that if enough of them told the right people in the right way, then something might be done about it. . . . You see, while you’re discussing it amongst each other, being beat, getting in bed with dark-haired artists . . . some people here are dying for lighting a cigarette at night.” Heretic’s Heart also explores Adler’s attempt to come to terms with her singular legacy as the only grandchild of Alfred Adler, collaborator of Freud and founder of Individual Psychology, and as the daughter of a forceful beauty who bequeaths her spunk and adventurousness to her daughter, but whose overpowering personality forces Adler to strike out on her own. Adler’s memoir marks an initiatory journey from spirit through politics and revolution back to spirit again. Revealing, funny, joyful, and often wise, Heretic’s Heart will restore the spirit of the 1960s: the passion, the confusion, the sense of social transformation and limitless possibility, and the ecstatic feeling that the world is on the cusp of change.
