Book Synopsis Roller Derby by : Michella M. Marino
Download or read book Roller Derby written by Michella M. Marino and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2021-10-12 with total page 263 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since 1935, roller derby has thrilled fans and skaters with its constant action, hard hits, and edgy attitude. However, though its participants’ athleticism is undeniable, roller derby has never been accepted as a “real” sport. Michella M. Marino, herself a former skater, tackles the history of a sport that has long been a cultural mainstay for one reason both utterly simple and infinitely complex: roller derby has always been coed. Richly illustrated and drawing on oral histories, archival materials, media coverage, and personal experiences, Roller Derby is the first comprehensive history of this cultural phenomenon, one enjoyed by millions yet spurned by mainstream gatekeepers. Amid the social constraints of the mid-twentieth century, roller derby’s emphasis on gender equality attracted male and female athletes alike, producing gender relations and gender politics unlike those of traditional sex-segregated sports. In an enlightening feminist critique, Marino considers how the promotion of pregnancy and motherhood by roller derby management has simultaneously challenged and conformed to social norms. Finally, Marino assesses the sport’s present and future after its resurgence in the 2000s.
Book Synopsis An Aleutian Ethnography by : Lucien McShan Turner
Download or read book An Aleutian Ethnography written by Lucien McShan Turner and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Lucien M. Turner's ethnographical work in the Aleutians remains unique. He alone made a concerted effort to learn Aleut and therefore could communicate more or less directly with the local population. Turner lived for extended periods in three primary Aleut communities in the eastern, central, and western islands. He interacted with Aleuts on a day-to-day basis, shared some of their difficulties, and felt at home enough to joke with them. The collections he made in the Aleutians surpass all others from the late nineteenth century. The items he shipped to the Smithsonian Institution provide researchers and contemporary Unangan glimpses into an irrecoverable past. It is this collection that forms Turner's primary legacy." "Turner's extant ethnographic notes are directly tied to his collections of natural history. Photographs of many of the ethnographic specimens are beautifully reproduced in this book. Ray Hudson's brilliant annotation of this most thorough ethnography of the Aleutian Islands and its people to date will shed light on both the Aleuts near the end of the nineteenth century and on those outsiders who lived among them."--BOOK JACKET.

Book Synopsis Hispanic-American Material Culture by :
Download or read book Hispanic-American Material Culture written by and published by Greenwood. This book was released on 1989-06-23 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the rapid increase of the Hispanic population in the United States, the Spanish cultural heritage has begun to achieve greater visibility and attract widespread interest. This directory reflects the efforts of states, museums, and other institutions, communities, and individuals to preserve and promote Hispanic material culture. It offers detailed information on depositories of Hispanic-American arts and crafts, photographic collections, museums, historic sites, and festivals, as well as folklore and oral history archives. The oldest and most numerous repositories are those that preserve Mexican-American culture in New Mexico, Texas, and California. These include many fine museum collections; historic churches, missions, plazas, government buildings, and houses; religious and secular festivals held at various times of the year; and collections of the work of traditional craftsmen such as the santeros, who in some parts of the Southwest still carve wooden statuettes of saints for churches and home altars. The primary repositories for Cuban materials are in Florida and New York; Puerto Rican materials have been collected mainly in Puerto Rico and the industrial northeast. This extensive bibliography provides information on studies dealing with architecture, foodways, arts and crafts, costume, festivals, and other topics. The subject index provides easy access to the book contents. This book will be an appropriate selection for regional, ethnic, and historical reference collections and a useful resource for academics and students with an interest in Hispanic-American history or culture.
