Book Synopsis Reimagining Community Festivals and Events by : Allan Stewart Jepson
Download or read book Reimagining Community Festivals and Events written by Allan Stewart Jepson and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-05-06 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book celebrates and builds on Alan Clarke (1956–2021) and Allan Jepson’s 2015 book Exploring Community Festivals and Events. It showcases how far the study of community festivals and events has come in the intervening years, and in so doing it is a response to recent calls for researchers to take a more critical approach to event studies. This is an interdisciplinary book that draws together empirical research across a wide range of community event types, sizes and within diverse communities. Chapters in this book are grouped into four themes that highlight the breadth and depth of work being done: reviving and maintaining tradition(s); a focus on belonging; challenges and tensions; and innovations in teaching and research. Another of its core strengths is its international perspective – the book encompasses research from around the world including Turkey, Portugal, Greece, India, the UK, the US, Austria and New Zealand. There is also a diverse range of theoretical lenses applied to the study of community events, and some innovative methodologies used to achieve research aims and objectives. This volume will appeal to students and researchers in the fields of critical event studies, cultural studies, place-making, tourism, music, sociology and geography. Several chapters also provide insights and key learnings for those lecturing and working in event management and industry professionals.

Download or read book CHINESE FESTIVALS written by Li Lùlù and published by American Academic Press. This book was released on 2023-12-26 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book discusses the most creative and entertaining events of Chinese festivals that have been celebrated with traditional and updated activities. Most ethnic groups are considered through the select materials that contain textual or visual messages for international readers. Related folk traditions and customs are often introduced to provide information for understanding the continuity, polarity and pluralism of Chinese culture. These focuses are presented with historical documents and collected artworks that are helpful for the academic studies of ethnic tradition and fine arts. In addition, relevant poems are selected and rendered into comparable English poetic stanzas. For authenticity, pinyin with tone accompanies most culture-specific words or texts, and this book may be especially helpful for teachers and students of the Chinese language or those who want to speak or write it naturally.

Book Synopsis Traditional Festivals [2 volumes] by : Christian Roy
Download or read book Traditional Festivals [2 volumes] written by Christian Roy and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2005-06-29 with total page 564 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This illustrated reference work covers a wide range of festivals that have sacred origins and are, or have been, part of a folk tradition, a world religion, or a major civilization. Traditional Festivals: A Multicultural Encyclopedia travels around the world and across the centuries to uncover an often unexpected richness of meaning in some of the major sacred festivals of the world's religions, the hallowed calendars of ancient civilizations, and the seasonal celebrations of tribal cultures. From Akitu to Yom Kippur, its 150+ entries look at the content and context of these festivals from a number of perspectives (including those relating to theology, anthropology, folklore, and social theory), tracing their historical development and variations across cultures. Readers will get a vivid sense of what each festival means to the people celebrating it; how each captures its culture's beliefs, hopes and fears, founding myths, and redemptive visions; and how each expresses the universal need of humans to connect their lives to a timeless spiritual dimension.
Download or read book Edible Flowers written by Mary Newman and published by Reaktion Books. This book was released on 2016-09-15 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most of us like to look at them, but why on earth would anyone want to eat them? As Constance L. Kirker and Mary Newman show in this book, however, flowers have a long history as a tasty ingredient in a variety of cuisines. The Greeks, Romans, Persians, Ottomans, Mayans, Chinese, and Indians all knew how to cook with them for centuries, and today contemporary chefs use them to add something special to their dishes. Edible Flowers is the fascinating history of how flowers have been used in cooking, from ancient Greek dishes to the today’s molecular gastronomy and farm-to-table restaurants. Looking at flowers’ natural qualities: their unique and beautiful appearance, their pungent fragrance, and their surprisingly good taste, Kirker and Newman proffer a bouquet of dishes—from soups to stews to desserts to beverages—that use them in interesting ways. Tying this culinary history into a larger cultural one, they show how flowers’ cultural, symbolic, and religious connotations have added value and meaning to dishes in daily life and special occasions. From fried squash blossoms to marigold dressings, this book rediscovers the flower not just as something beautiful but as something absolutely delicious.

Book Synopsis The English Festivals by : Laurence Whistler
Download or read book The English Festivals written by Laurence Whistler and published by Dean Street Press. This book was released on 2015-10-05 with total page 253 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shortly after the end of World War II, Laurence Whistler set out to write 'a guide to the festivals of England as they are and as they might be': the result is a captivatingly readable and enchanting narrative, the ancient holidays revealed as a microcosm of the wheel of life in England. Christmas, New Year, Twelfth night, Easter, May Day, Whitsun, Midsummer, Harvest (and sixteen others) - these are the most ancient of our traditions, more ancient than any present-day beliefs, and strong enough to have survived even the attacks of Puritans in the seventeenth century. Here, for example, is the radiant Kissing Bough, whose candles we lit before we had ever heard of a Christmas Tree. Here is the way to colour and engrave Easter Eggs. Here are fireworks in all their extravagant variety. Or here is the history of the Valentine and the Christmas Card. Laurence Whistler has written this scholarly book with the imaginative delight of a poet. This new edition features an introduction by art historian James Russell. "His book has been written in delight and passes on delight to the reader... it has a lovely benevolence; the author's knowledge, his sense of values, his breadth of outlook are in evidence on every page." John O'London's Weekly "There is scholarship here about the past, and delight in the festivals of today... a book that will be delightful to pick up again at any time of the year." Sunday Times "Possessing enchantment of matter, it has also enchantment of manner." Time and Tide "Its younger readers will find themselves educated, perhaps unconsciously, by publisher as well as author." Observer "A charming book." Country Life "A most charming and decorative volume." Sunday Chronicle "Learning and common sense have gone to the making of this attractive, well-illustrated book." Birmingham News "A delightful gift book for all the year round... altogether charming." Edinburgh Evening News "A book very much out of the ordinary." Sphere
