Book Synopsis Three Houses/Hou3zez by : Velma Price Smith
Download or read book Three Houses/Hou3zez written by Velma Price Smith and published by . This book was released on 2021-01-15 with total page 682 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Three Houses has a tripartite structure: The House of Pride, twenty-six stories cataloguing Price's childhood and youth with her parents and seventeen siblings on their small farm in West Helena, Arkansas; her young adulthood at a(n) historically black college. The House of Woe (Marriage) examines Price's marriages to two charming and seemingly compatible partners and the failure of those tumultuous relationships; and My House-seventeen stories that chart Price's forty-eight-year career as a public speaker and English instructor as well as the cumulative effect on the author of the interesting people who have enriched her odyssey. Potentially the forty-six discrete narratives engage readers in the way that we patronize films and plays, read short stories and novels, hear concerts, and frequent houses of worship. The final two chapters, together with a generous Album of photos of the principal participants in Price's life, analyze the role of performance art, including music, in Price's journey and recount the Price Family's appearance on stage at Lone Star College-North Harris; Houston, Texas. Collectively, the accounts invite readers to explore afresh their connectedness to others in the human family through communal experiences and traditions.
Download or read book Karsh written by David Travis and published by David R. Godine Publisher. This book was released on 2012-06-15 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The renowned photographer reveals the stories behind his iconic images in this definitive collection of portraits and personal reflections. Portrait photographer Yousuf Karsh captured some of the twentieth century’s most influential personalities—from Winston Churchill to Muhammad Ali, Albert Einstein, Mother Theresa, and many others—in photographs that became as recognizable as their subjects. Karsh: Beyond the Camera presents a chronological overview of the photographer’ work, paired with his own reflections about each image and the time he spent one-on-one with the subject. Edited by veteran curator David Travis, Karsh: Beyond the Camera is a fascinating study of the photographer’s technical and stylistic development over the course of his career. Drawing on extensive interviews between Karsh and his long-time assistant, Jerry Fielder, it also shares a rare and intimate look at the man’s life from surviving the Armenian genocide to becoming one of the world’s most sought-after portrait photographers. “Famously reticent about his work, this is a rare invitation to learn the stories behind Karsh’s most famous meetings with great men and women, and of his aesthetic choices when met with the challenge of capturing them as they were.” —Publishers Weekly

Book Synopsis Discovering Levinas by : Michael L. Morgan
Download or read book Discovering Levinas written by Michael L. Morgan and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2007-05-28 with total page 47 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Discovering Levinas, Michael L. Morgan shows how this thinker faces in novel and provocative ways central philosophical problems of twentieth-century philosophy and religious thought. He tackles this task by placing Levinas in conversation with philosophers such as Donald Davidson, Stanley Cavell, John McDowell, Onora O'Neill, Charles Taylor, and Cora Diamond. He also seeks to understand Levinas within philosophical, religious, and political developments in the history of twentieth-century intellectual culture. Morgan demystifies Levinas by examining his unfamiliar and surprising vocabulary, interpreting texts with an eye to clarity, and arguing that Levinas can be understood as a philosopher of the everyday. Morgan also shows that Levinas's ethics is not morally and politically irrelevant nor is it excessively narrow and demanding in unacceptable ways. Neither glib dismissal nor fawning acceptance, this book provides a sympathetic reading that can form a foundation for a responsible critique.

Book Synopsis The Naturalist in Britain by : David Elliston Allen
Download or read book The Naturalist in Britain written by David Elliston Allen and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 1994-11-06 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At once a major resource for historians of science and an excellent introduction to natural history for the general reader, David Allen's The Naturalist in Britain established a precedent for investigating natural history as a social phenomenon. Here the author traces the evolution of natural history from the seventeenth to the early twentieth centuries, from the "herbalizings" of apprentice apothecaries to the establishment of national reserves and international societies to the emergence of natural history as an organized discipline. Along the way he describes the role of scientific ideas, popular fashion, religious motivations, literary influences, the increase of leisure time and disposable income, and the tendency of like-minded persons to form clubs. His comprehensive and entertaining discussion creates a vibrant portrait of a scientific movement inextricably woven into a particular culture.
