Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At the dawn of the twenty-first century, America finds itself on the brink of a new racial consciousness. The old, unquestioned confidence with which individuals can be classified (as embodied, for instance, in previous U.S. census categories) has been eroded. In its place are shifting paradigms and new norms for racial identity. Eva Marie Garroutte examines the changing processes of racial identification and their implications by looking specifically at the case of American Indians.

Book Synopsis Salvador Allende and the Villa San Luis by : Patricia Vilches
Download or read book Salvador Allende and the Villa San Luis written by Patricia Vilches and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-01-01 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Through the history of this housing complex, this book illuminates Salvador Allende’s dedication to the imperative of the right to the city for Chile’s marginalized people. Built in affluent Las Condes in Santiago, on what is arguably the most expensive parcel of land in Chile, the Villa San Luis was one of Salvador Allende’s most visible and dramatic social projects. Allende’s six-year term was ended in the middle by a military coup d’état on 11th September 1973. Yet, material culture from Villa San Luis remains to convey the legacy of his commitment to providing disadvantaged families with dignified housing. It is a national lieu de mémoire and an iconic space, a reminder of a truly remarkable innovation in social housing and of Allende’s personal and political commitment to making Santiago a just city. Postcoup, the remains of the complex also relate the wider injustice of the Pinochet regime. Many of its families were violently evicted during the dictatorship. Some were dispossessed, taken away from Las Condes in garbage trucks, and dumped in poor communities around Santiago. The land was usurped by Pinochet on behalf of the army and later sold to developers to construct high-rise symbols of a new, neoliberal Chile. Over the decades, however, former residents fought back and, in 2020, they succeeded in making its one remaining structure, remnants of Block 14, a memorialized place of justice and reconciliation. It now a national monument and museum.
Book Synopsis Thinking in the Dark by : Murray Pomerance
Download or read book Thinking in the Dark written by Murray Pomerance and published by Rutgers University Press. This book was released on 2015-10-16 with total page 441 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Today’s film scholars draw from a dizzying range of theoretical perspectives—they’re just as likely to cite philosopher Gilles Deleuze as they are to quote classic film theorist André Bazin. To students first encountering them, these theoretical lenses for viewing film can seem exhilarating, but also overwhelming. Thinking in the Dark introduces readers to twenty-one key theorists whose work has made a great impact on film scholarship today, including Rudolf Arnheim, Sergei Eisenstein, Michel Foucault, Siegfried Kracauer, and Judith Butler. Rather than just discussing each theorist’s ideas in the abstract, the book shows how those concepts might be applied when interpreting specific films by including an analysis of both a classic film and a contemporary one. It thus demonstrates how theory can help us better appreciate films from all eras and genres: from Hugo to Vertigo, from City Lights to Sunset Blvd., and from Young Mr. Lincoln to A.I. and Wall-E. The volume’s contributors are all experts on their chosen theorist’s work and, furthermore, are skilled at explaining that thinker’s key ideas and terms to readers who are not yet familiar with them. Thinking in the Dark is not only a valuable resource for teachers and students of film, it’s also a fun read, one that teaches us all how to view familiar films through new eyes. Theorists examined in this volume are: Rudolf Arnheim, Béla Balázs, Roland Barthes, André Bazin, Walter Benjamin, Judith Butler, Stanley Cavell, Michel Chion, Gilles Deleuze, Jean Douchet, Sergei Eisenstein, Jean Epstein, Michel Foucault, Siegfried Kracauer, Jacques Lacan, Vachel Lindsay, Christian Metz, Hugo Münsterberg, V. F. Perkins, Jacques Rancière, and Jean Rouch.
Book Synopsis American Arabesque by : Jacob Rama Berman
Download or read book American Arabesque written by Jacob Rama Berman and published by NYU Press. This book was released on 2012-06-11 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Part of the American Literatures Initiative Series American Arabesque examines representations of Arabs, Islam and the Near East in nineteenth-century American culture, arguing that these representations play a significant role in the development of American national identity over the century, revealing largely unexplored exchanges between these two cultural traditions that will alter how we understand them today. Moving from the period of America's engagement in the Barbary Wars through the Holy Land travel mania in the years of Jacksonian expansion and into the writings of romantics such as Edgar Allen Poe, the book argues that not only were Arabs and Muslims prominently featured in nineteenth-century literature, but that the differences writers established between figures such as Moors, Bedouins, Turks and Orientals provide proof of the transnational scope of domestic racial politics. Drawing on both English and Arabic language sources, Berman contends that the fluidity and instability of the term Arab as it appears in captivity narratives, travel narratives, imaginative literature, and ethnic literature simultaneously instantiate and undermine definitions of the American nation and American citizenship.

Book Synopsis Embodied Metaphors in Film, Television, and Video Games by : Kathrin Fahlenbrach
Download or read book Embodied Metaphors in Film, Television, and Video Games written by Kathrin Fahlenbrach and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-10-05 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In cognitive research, metaphors have been shown to help us imagine complex, abstract, or invisible ideas, concepts, or emotions. Contributors to this book argue that metaphors occur not only in language, but in audio visual media well. This is all the more evident in entertainment media, which strategically "sell" their products by addressing their viewers’ immediate, reflexive understanding through pictures, sounds, and language. This volume applies cognitive metaphor theory (CMT) to film, television, and video games in order to analyze the embodied aesthetics and meanings of those moving images.
Book Synopsis Crafting Preservation Criteria by : John H. Sprinkle, Jr.
Download or read book Crafting Preservation Criteria written by John H. Sprinkle, Jr. and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-03-05 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1966, American historic preservation was transformed by the passage of the National Historic Preservation Act, which created a National Register of Historic Places. Now comprising more than 1.4 million historic properties across the country, the National Register is the official federal list of places in the United States thought to be worthy of preservation. One of the fundamental principles of the National Register is that every property is evaluated according to a standard set of criteria that provide the framework for understanding why a property is significant in American history. The origins of these criteria are important because they provide the threshold for consideration by a broad range of federal preservation programs, from planning for continued adaptive use, to eligibility for grants, and inclusion in heritage tourism and educational programs. Crafting Preservation Criteria sets out these preservation criteria for students, explaining how they got added to the equation, and elucidating the test cases that allowed for their use. From artworks to churches, from 'the fifty year rule' to 'the historic scene', students will learn how places have been historically evaluated to be placed on the National Register, and how the criteria evolved over time.

Book Synopsis A Life Less Beautiful by : Tyrone D. Oates
Download or read book A Life Less Beautiful written by Tyrone D. Oates and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2007-08-17 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A Life Less Beautiful” is a collection of philosophy, poetry and prose written over more than a decade. It is a philosophical landscape of the human heart and the journey it takes to find love and fulfillment. The work is emotionally charged and touches on all the aspects of human life and relationships. It is a literary realistic impression of the Author’s own emotional journeys. Heartache and loss are the central theme of the book which culminates in an emotionally gripping theory of human fulfillment. All of us will recognize pieces of our own journey in the book’s content. It reflects the human condition prevalent in society and the hidden pages of emotional disparity all of us conceal from the world. In times of heartache and despair, anger and loss, we all seek answers to end the chaotic frenzy of disillusionment and suffering. To see expressed in pure literary terms the imperfection and vulnerability of our hearts is to receive the morphine necessary to ease the pain that living and loving brings. The book is a philosophical and poetical genre of life coaching and self help that will place readers in the centre of their emotional self and commence the healing process necessary to find fulfillment. The didactic nature of the verse will further help readers acknowledge the destructive nature of their fears and insecurities and help them embrace the life potential within the painful lessons they learn. Above all “A Life Less Beautiful” is a textbook of love, its pain and its treasures. If Shackleton found “the naked soul of man” on his arctic expedition of 1914, then “A Life Less Beautiful” is “the naked heart of man” published in 2007.
