Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Imag(in)ing Otherness explores relationships between film and religion, aesthetics and ethics. The volume examines these relationships by viewing how otherness is imaged in film and how otherness alternately might be imagined. Drawing from a variety of films from differing religious perspectives--including Chan Buddhism, Hinduism, Native American religions, Christianity, and Judaism--the essays gathered in this volume examine the particular problems of "living together" when faced with the tensions brought out through the otherness of differing sexualities, ethnicities, genders, religions, cultures, and families.

Book Synopsis Say You're Sorry by : Sarah Shankman
Download or read book Say You're Sorry written by Sarah Shankman and published by Untreed Reads. This book was released on 2014-09-09 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Yes, ma’am,” “No, ma’am,” elbows off the table, and thank you notes, all examples of the good manners that Southern mothers drill into their young. But the characters in these mostly Southern stories by Sarah Shankman know the deeper meaning of the term. Good manners are words and actions that put others at ease; bad manners don’t. And bad manners, like bad children, must be punished. A bride left at the altar, as in “All You Need Is Love,” is entitled to be in a killer mood for years. And the wife in “Wish You Were Here,” both two-timed and targeted for murder by her fat doctor hubbie, can’t be blamed for taking matters into her own hands on a steamy July day. Two women, friends since childhood—who could fault the one for harboring a long-festering hate for the other’s damning betrayal in the collection’s title story? And three deadly tales set in New Orleans, where the silver is always kept both polished and sharpened, are perfect examples of novelist Rita Mae Brown’s quip: You can't be truly rude until you understand good manners. These dozen stories, collected here for the first time, will delight the legions of fans of Shankman’s Samantha Adams series who’ve long admired her wit, her colorful characters, her finely honed relish for revenge, and her winning ways with words. This daring daughter of the South reimagines Watergate’s Deep Throat, writes a recipe for poisoning a journalist who went one step too far, and devastatingly describes the misery of living beneath a noisy neighbor…and the deadly consequences that that ever-so-rude clomp, clomp, clomping so richly deserves.

Download or read book Sole to Soul written by Eleanor MacLellan and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2014-07-29 with total page 351 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When her teenage son's escalating self-sabotage jeopardized the fragile balance in author Eleanor MacLellan's blended family, she and her husband enrolled him in an alternative high school that required the parents to complete a senior project before their son could graduate. She chose to make a large canvas labyrinth for her church and community with the help of five friends. As the women worked on the physical labyrinth project, they explored the twisting paths of their life stories, which traversed the loss of a fourteen-year-old child, a serious teenage auto accident, a family coffin-building tradition, the return of an adult child given up for adoption at birth, a cancer diagnosis, and friendships forged in poverty. MacLellan discovered that her real senior project was not just to create a labyrinth, but rather to reclaim a strong family and to find a deeper, creative faith for the journey ahead.
Download or read book The Real Artist written by Sarah Waits and published by Balboa Press. This book was released on 2014-12-31 with total page 632 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this personal/spiritual growth painting, we see mists of mental distortions vaporized, meanings behind relationships made clear. Faith which overcomes the world is made understandable. We learn that no circumstance need interfere with obtaining and maintaining contentment-producing levels of serotonin. A seasoned therapist, specializing in art therapy, eating disorders, and addictions recovery, provides the case study, which takes a client from suicide attempt to happy life. She offers a wealth of cognitive behavioral restructuring tools for liberation from perseverating our past. According to the author, love hunger, as a contingency of survival, is our main drive. With therapeutic intervention, our thoughts, behaviors, and feelings become solution-focused. Names of people and places are fictitious, but suspense, humor, and insights tell a true story starting from the 1940s, before political correctness, through the present aftermath of no moral absolutes, no impulse restrained. This book is the go-to for developing outrageously satisfying intimacy with a creative genius not of this world.

Book Synopsis Jubilee 1977 - Seveny Seven - What a Time! by : Michael Fitzalan
Download or read book Jubilee 1977 - Seveny Seven - What a Time! written by Michael Fitzalan and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2011-07-18 with total page 287 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: SEVENY SEVEN Seveny-Seven was what the Disc Jockeys, slovenly, called the year of seventy seven, the year after the heat wave and the year before 'New Wave'. Nineteen Seventy Seven was the year of the Queen's Jubilee and the zenith of the Punk Rock revolution. It was time of fear and uncertainty. The oil crisis had knocked the economy off course, the cold war was at its height, there was doom and gloom all around. What did 1977 mean to adolescents? One teenager, Michael Fitzalan was keen to discover new music and celebrate his fifteenth birthday with a book published and a girl on his arm. An excruciatingly frank account of life in 1970's London that will resonate with teenagers now. This is a wonderful romp through a decade defining year.
Book Synopsis Fallacies and Pitfalls of Language by : S. Morris Engel
Download or read book Fallacies and Pitfalls of Language written by S. Morris Engel and published by Courier Corporation. This book was released on 2012-07-03 with total page 203 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As S. Morris Engel alerts us in this eye-opening book, we risk falling into potentially harmful language traps every moment. Not just the occasional malapropism or grammatical faux pas, but a more sinister kind — distortions of meaning that would persuade us to believe something that may not be true. Sometimes these language traps are set for us deliberately by politicians, advertisers, journalists, lawyers or other professional persuaders. Sometimes they are set inadvertently by our friends, our loved ones — even ourselves. This work explains how and why these fallacies work, and how we may suffer the consequences when they do. Day after day we listen to government newspeak (our troops are called "peace-keeping forces"), exaggerated advertising claims from "leading authorities," twisted logic and misleading propaganda. We are treated to more and more euphemisms (slums are called "substandard housing"; dogcatchers, "animal welfare officers"). We encounter innumerable ambiguities ("I wish you all the good fortune you deserve") — and indulge in a few ourselves. The author wittily explores this verbal minefield, and tells us how to spot a language trap and how to avoid falling in. The book is not only a useful manual of verbal self-defense, it's an engrossing study of the nature of language and the subtle ways in which it operates. It will intrigue anyone interested in words, language, and the dynamics of modern culture.
Book Synopsis Teacher’S Joke and Story Book by : Stanley Graham
Download or read book Teacher’S Joke and Story Book written by Stanley Graham and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2016-06-17 with total page 141 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: My original purpose in compiling these jokes was to help myself to tell them in the classroom. During the last several years of my teaching career (thirty-five years of high school sciencephysics, earth science, chemistry, biology), I was in the habit of using the final few minutes of each class to tell jokes and stories to my students. That time is usually wasted anyhow as students are thinking about leaving and going to their next class. After I began this practice, I found that they were actually looking forward to the jokes each day.
Book Synopsis The Theoretical Foot by : M. F. K. Fisher
Download or read book The Theoretical Foot written by M. F. K. Fisher and published by Catapult. This book was released on 2016-02-01 with total page 189 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Robert Lescher died in 2012 an unpublished manuscript of M.F.K. Fisher's was discovered neatly packed in the one of the literary agent's signature red boxes. Inspired by Fisher's affair with Dillwyn Parrish — who was to become her second husband — The Theoretical Foot is the master stylist's first novel. In it she describes the life she all–too–briefly had with the man she'd ever after describe as the one great love of her life. It tells of a late–summer idyll at the Swiss farmhouse of Tim and Sara, where guests have gathered at ease on the terrace next to the burbling fountain in which baby lettuces are being washed, there to enjoy the food and wine served them by this stylish American couple. But all around these seemingly fortunate people, the forces of darkness are gathering: The year is 1939; World War II approaches. And the paradise Tim and Sara have made is being besieged from within as Tim — closely based on Parrish — is about to suffer the first of the circulatory attacks that will cause him to lose his leg to amputation.

Download or read book Shared Reality written by E. Tory Higgins and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2019-06-04 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What does it mean to be human? Why do we feel and behave in the ways that we do? The classic answer is that we have a special kind of intelligence. But to understand what we are as humans, we also need to know what we are like motivationally. And what is central to this story, what is special about human motivation, is that humans want to share with others their inner experiences about the world--share how they feel, what they believe, and what they want to happen in the future. They want to create a shared reality with others. People have a shared reality together when they experience having in common a feeling about something, a belief about something, or a concern about something. They feel connected to another person or group by knowing that this person or group sees the world the same way that they do--they share what is real about the world. In this work, Dr. Higgins describes how our human motivation for shared reality evolved in our species, and how it develops in our children as shared feelings, shared practices, and shared goals and roles. Shared reality is crucial to what we believe--sharing is believing. It is central to our sense of self, what we strive for and how we strive. It is basic to how we get along with others. It brings us together in fellowship and companionship, but it also tears us apart by creating in-group "bubbles" that conflict with one another. Our shared realities are the best of us, and the worst of us.
Book Synopsis Crime Novels: Five Classic Thrillers 1961-1964 (LOA #370) by : Fredric Brown
Download or read book Crime Novels: Five Classic Thrillers 1961-1964 (LOA #370) written by Fredric Brown and published by Library of America. This book was released on 2023-09-12 with total page 867 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the 1960s the masters of crime fiction expanded the genre’s literary and psychological possibilities with audacious new themes, forms, and subject matter—here are five of their finest works This is the first of two volumes gathering the best American crime fiction of the 1960s, nine novels of astonishing variety and inventiveness that pulse with the energies of that turbulent, transformative decade. In The Murderers (1961) by Fredric Brown, an out-of-work actor, hanging out with Beat drifters on the fringes of Hollywood, concocts a murder scheme that devolves into nightmare. This late work by a master in many genres is one of his darkest and most ingenious. Dan J. Marlowe’s The Name of the Game Is Death (1962) channels the inner life of a violent criminal who freely acknowledges the truth of a prison psychiatrist’s diagnosis: “Your values are not civilized values.” Written with unnerving emotional authenticity, the story hurtles toward an annihilating climax. Charles Williams drew on his experience in the merchant marine for his thriller Dead Calm (1963). A newlywed couple alone on a small yacht find themselves at the mercy of the mysterious survivor they have rescued from a sinking ship, in a suspenseful story that chillingly evokes the perils of the open ocean. In the beautifully told and sharply observant The Expendable Man (1963), Dorothy B. Hughes’s final masterpiece of suspense, a young man in the American Southwest runs afoul of racial assumptions after he picks up a hitchhiker who soon turns up dead. In twenty-four brilliantly constructed novels, Richard Stark (a pen name of Donald Westlake) charted the career of Parker, a hard-nosed professional thief, with rigorous clarity. The Score (1964), a stand-out in the series, finds Parker and his criminal associates hatching a plot to rob simultaneously all the jewelry stores, payroll offices, and banks in a remote Western mining town, only to come up against the human limits of even the most intricate planning. Volume features include an introduction by editor Geoffrey O'Brien (Hardboiled America), newly researched biographies of the writers and helpful notes, and an essay on textual selection.
