Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Unknown to many Americans at the time, the Hmong helped the US government fight Communists in Laos during the Secret War of the 1960s and 1970s, a parallel conflict to the Vietnam War. When Saigon fell and allies withdrew, the surviving Hmong fled for their lives, spending years in Thai refugee camps before being relocated to the United States and other countries. Many of these families found homes in Wisconsin, which now has the third largest Hmong population in the country, following California and Minnesota. As one of the most recent cultural groups to arrive in the Badger State, the Hmong have worked hard to establish a new life here, building support systems to preserve traditions and to help one another as they enrolled in schools, started businesses, and strived for independence. Told with a mixture of scholarly research, interviews, and personal experience of the author, this latest addition to the popular People of Wisconsin series shares the Hmong’s varied stories of survival and hope as they have become an important part of Wisconsin communities.

This book was released on 2012-01-02 with total page 331 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mortality in Traditional China is the definitive exploration of a complex and fascinating but little-understood subject. Arguably, death as a concept has not been nearly as central a preoccupation in Chinese culture as it has been in the West. However, even in a society that seems to understand death as a part of life, responses to mortality are revealing and indicate much about what is valued and what is feared. This edited volume fills the lacuna on this subject, presenting an array of philosophical, artistic, historical, and religious perspectives on death during a variety of historical periods. Contributors look at material culture, including findings now available from the Mawangdui tomb excavations; consider death in Confucian, Daoist, and Buddhist traditions; and discuss death and the history and philosophy of war.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In many parts of the contemporary world, spirit beliefs and practices have taken on a pivotal role in addressing the discontinuities and uncertainties of modern life. The myriad ways in which devotees engage the spirit world show the tremendous creative potential of these practices and their innate adaptability to changing times and circumstances. Through in-depth anthropological case studies from Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, Myanmar, Laos, and Vietnam, the contributors to this book investigate the role and impact of different social, political, and economic dynamics in the reconfiguration of local spirit worlds in modern Southeast Asia. Their findings contribute to the re-enchantment debate by revealing that the “spirited modernities” that have emerged in the process not only embody a distinct feature of the contemporary moment, but also invite a critical rethinking of the concept of modernity itself.

Book excerpt: A world destroyed. A lone warrior. A chance to start again. Ever since he was little, Merrick had been blessed by the Great Spirits granting him an unusually strong connection to the Song of the World. With his Warrior Ceremony approaching, Merrick was sure his greatest wish was about to come true, never expecting he was going to be thrown into a torrent of change that would threaten to sweep away his whole world. Invaders from another world were beginning to creep into his people's land, intent on devouring every resource they could find, and when Merrick offers to act as a guide for a rich young prospector's group, he finds he may have bit off more than he can chew. Fierce wolves stalk the dark, and poisonous insects hide under every leaf, but the true danger lurks in the hearts of his companions as he ventures out into the untamed wilds to seek a treasure he knows nothing about. Armed with a Guardian Spirit he doesn't understand and strange knowledge of the future, it will take every ounce of courage and fortitude Merrick can muster to make it out of the mountains alive.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For most of literary history, personal confessions about illness were considered too intimate to share publicly. By the mid-twentieth century, however, a series of events set the stage for the emergence of the illness narrative. The increase of chronic disease, the transformation of medicine into big business, the women's health movement, the AIDS/HIV pandemic, the advent of inexpensive paperbacks, and the rise of self-publishing all contributed to the proliferation of narratives about encounters with medicine and mortality. While the illness narrative is now a staple of the publishing industry, the genre itself has posed a problem for literary studies. What is the role of criticism in relation to personal accounts of suffering? Can these narratives be judged on aesthetic grounds? Are they a collective expression of the lost intimacy of the patient-doctor relationship? Is their function thus instrumental—to elicit the reader's empathy? To answer these questions, Ann Jurecic turns to major works on pain and suffering by Susan Sontag, Elaine Scarry, and Eve Sedgwick and reads these alongside illness narratives by Jean-Dominique Bauby, Reynolds Price, and Anne Fadiman, among others. In the process, she defines the subgenres of risk and pain narratives and explores a range of critical responses guided, alternately, by narrative empathy, the hermeneutics of suspicion, and the practice of reparative reading. Illness as Narrative seeks to draw wider attention to this form of life writing and to argue for new approaches to both literary criticism and teaching narrative. Jurecic calls for a practice that's both compassionate and critical. She asks that we consider why writers compose stories of illness, how readers receive them, and how both use these narratives to make meaning of human fragility and mortality.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Greatest Works of D. H. Lawrence is a collection that showcases the literary genius of the renowned author. Known for his bold exploration of human emotions and sexuality, Lawrence's writings often contain themes of love, desire, and the complexities of relationships. His prose is characterized by its poetic quality and vivid imagery, drawing readers into a world of intense emotions and inner turmoil. The collection includes iconic works such as 'Sons and Lovers', 'Lady Chatterley's Lover', and 'Women in Love'. These novels reflect Lawrence's unique style and his ability to delve deep into the human psyche with unprecedented honesty and insight. D. H. Lawrence, a prolific writer of the early 20th century, was deeply influenced by his own personal experiences and observations of society. His works often faced censorship due to their controversial themes and explicit content, but they have since been recognized for their literary merits and contributions to modern literature. Lawrence's rebellious spirit and commitment to authenticity continue to resonate with readers today. I highly recommend The Greatest Works of D. H. Lawrence to readers who appreciate thought-provoking literature that explores the complexities of human relationships and emotions. This collection offers a profound insight into the mind of a literary genius whose works have stood the test of time.
