Book Synopsis You Win or You Die by : Ayelet Haimson Lushkov
Download or read book You Win or You Die written by Ayelet Haimson Lushkov and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2017-04-30 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If the Middle Ages form the present-day backdrop to the continents of Westeros and Essos, then antiquity is their resonant past. The Known World is haunted by the remnants of distant and powerful civilizations, without whose presence the novels of George R. R. Martin and the ever popular HBO show would lose much of their meaning and appeal. In this essential sequel to Carolyne Larrington's Winter is Coming: The Medieval World of Game of Thrones, Ayelet Haimson Lushkov explores the echoes, from the Summer Islands to Storm's End, of a rich antique history. She discusses, for example, the convergence of ancient Rome and the reach, scope, and might of the Valyrian Freehold. She shows how the wanderings of Tyrion Lannister replay the journeys of Odysseus and Aeneas. She suggests that the War of the Five Kings resembles the War of the Four Emperors (68-69 AD). She also demonstrates just how the Wall and the Wildlings advancing on it connect with Hadrian's bulwark against fierce tribes of Picts. This book reveals the remarkable extent to which the entire Game of Thrones universe is animated by its ancient past.
Download or read book Win or Die written by Bruce Craven and published by Thomas Dunne Books. This book was released on 2019-03-19 with total page 303 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “When it comes to the most-anticipated business books of 2019, Win or Die: Leadership Secrets From Game of Thrones is the one to beat.”—Inc. A guide to leading without losing your head, inspired by the bestselling books and smash television series Game of Thrones. "When you play the game of thrones, you win or you die. There is no middle ground." —Cersei Lannister One of the great joys of Game of Thrones is strategizing what bold moves you'd make in this bloody, volatile world—from the comfort of your living room. And one of the great terrors of being a leader is knowing your real world can be just as brutal—and offices bring no comfort. Every day you're presented with opportunities and challenges, and must decide which roads to follow, which risks to confront, when to deny an opportunity and when to pursue the call to adventure. And you won't know whether you'll profit or fail while you're in the thick of it. In Win or Die: Leadership Secrets from Game of Thrones, Bruce Craven brilliantly analyzes the journeys of the best and worst leaders in Westeros, so that leaders can create their own narratives of success. Craven considers beloved characters such as Ned Stark, Jon Snow, Daenerys Targaryen, and Tyrion Lannister as they make terrible decisions and fatal mistakes, but also achieve incredible victories and surprising successes, learning and growing along their (often bloody) ways. Readers will learn how to face conflict and build resilience, develop contextual and emotional intelligence, develop their vision, and more. This entertaining and accessible guide will show readers how to turn danger into opportunity, even when dragons threaten.

Download or read book Che Guevara written by Stuart A. Kallen and published by Twenty-First Century Books (Tm). This book was released on 2013 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: October 9, 1967. World-renowned revolutionary Che Guevara is dead at 39. The charismatic Argentinian had been leading guerrilla fighters in Bolivia and was captured by the Bolivian army. A sergeant volunteered to execute the prisoner. Around the globe, reactions to the assassination were mixed. In Cuba, where Guevara had helped overthrow a brutally repressive dictatorship in 1959, more than a million people mourned openly. But elsewhere, many business leaders and government officials were relieved. To the rich and powerful, Guevara was dangerous. His anti-capitalist movement sought to strip big businesses of their land and power. He wanted to set up socialist systems to spread wealth and resources among ordinary workers--in Latin America and all around the world. How did the fiercely independent and internationally admired revolutionary leader end his life as a captive in a tiny Bolivian village? Why did he die a hunted man, without a fair trial, at the hands of a Bolivian soldier? And how did his story become a legend?--From publisher description.

Book Synopsis The Power of Storytelling in Teaching Practices by : Dean A. F. Gui
Download or read book The Power of Storytelling in Teaching Practices written by Dean A. F. Gui and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-11-30 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Featuring storytelling as a central theme, this book examines the role of narrative inquiry in social processes of establishing teacher knowledge and identity to provide new insights into the role of storytelling in education’s teaching and learning paradigm. Gui and Wong engage with a body of academics, creative writers, and researchers looking at the role of storytelling in Hong Kong education. The book is split into three sections of storytelling: introspective, agentive, and collaborative. Examining personal accounts of teachers using storytelling to reflect on and transform feelings, the authors reconstruct the traditional pedagogical and learner practices into new opportunities for civic participation and generative community practices. With attention to educators who make use of collaborative experiences to develop narrative approaches and foster community identities, the chapters explore existing pedagogical, creative, and scholarly literature for re-purposing narratives, teacher transformation, and learner participation. With the use of autoethnographic accounts, this book’s innovative approach to storytelling will appeal to professional educators, teachers, and researchers in the fields of literacy, narrative inquiry, and creative writing. Scholars engaging with reflexive, participatory, and collaborative modes of teaching and learning will find this an essential read.
