Book excerpt: The Unreal Real, Liza Ryan's fifth publication, surveys the last two decades of her work. Thirteen chapters, loosely organized by chronology and series, present a collection of Ryan's nuanced observations. Trained as a photographer and a student of literature, Ryan uses images as language as she moves fluidly between photography and video, collage and mixed media, to capture her diverse perceptions.

Whether documenting her experience in Antarctica or examining the repercussions of loss, Ryan's work captures a sense of evanescence that might otherwise go unnoticed.

Book Synopsis Sex and the Unreal City by : Anthony Esolen
Download or read book Sex and the Unreal City written by Anthony Esolen and published by Ignatius Press. This book was released on 2020-07-20 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Unreal City: a cartoon megalopolis where towers are built of cotton candy, facts scatter like pixie dust, and the truth is whatever you feel it to be. And it's no fantasy. It's where we live. "We dwell in Unreal City. We believe in un-being." With saber-like wit, poet and professor Anthony Esolen leads readers on a tour through the ruins of their own Western world—through king-size bookstores, manicured college campuses, strobe-lit choir lofts, mechanized farms, divorce courts, drag-queen libraries, and beyond. This hilarious guide to a culture gone mad with sex and self-care minces no words and spares no egos. We the people of Unreal City are no better, and certainly no smarter, than our fathers. But fear not. Sex and the Unreal City insists there's no need to settle down in the ninth circle of unreality. Esolen lights a torch and heads up the well-trod path back to our cleaner, kinder, truer homeland: Earth. Along the way, the author sings the songs of masters long forgotten—Shakespeare, Dante, Milton, the Evangelists—and asks us to join in.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle.

The powerful tools he forged from the ideas of algebra allowed him to penetrate classical problems with a clarity and depth that brought a rigor to the way algebraic geometers carry out proofs.

This publication is beneficial to students and researchers interested in Oscar Zariski’s life and work in mathematics.

Book Synopsis Buffalo Gals, Won't You Come Out Tonight by : Ursula K. Le Guin
Download or read book Buffalo Gals, Won't You Come Out Tonight written by Ursula K. Le Guin and published by Pomegranate Communications. This book was released on 1994 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this intriguing tale (not for children), storyteller extraordinaire Ursula K. Le Guin explores the magic of animals. Her animal characters -- from the irreverent trickster Coyote to the wise matriarch Grandmother Spider -- seem like people to us, just as they do to the little girl who finds herself living among them. We learn, with the girl, that these "Old People" once lived freely on the earth but now must maintain their lifeways carefully alongside the "New People" -- humans. Susan Seddon Boulet chose this tale to illustrate, completing twenty works for its publication. They are extremely effective in bringing Le Guin's characters to life, imbuing them, of course, with Boulet's singular vision of the otherworldly realms occupied by animal spirits. This book is a must for any serious collector of Boulet art.
