Book Synopsis From the Land of Bröd and Smör by : Avis Dillon
Download or read book From the Land of Bröd and Smör written by Avis Dillon and published by Booktango. This book was released on 2013-06-04 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This novel is based on historical facts...not the usual historical facts but ones far more personal and individual. Over 67 letters were written by a Swedish immigrant to his family back in the old country over a period of approximately 48 years that John Eric Jernberg lived in this country. He and his brother arrived in the Dakota Territory before it became two states and at various times in his life, lived in Idaho, Oregon and Washington. These letters painted a detailed picture of life in those areas from 1881 to his death in 1928 and are the basis for this story. John Eric was very careful to identify almost anyone he mentioned in his letters by their full name. However, many of the family members were called by their middle name or their first and middle name together, or by their initials. The spelling of some of the names is a translation matter and sometimes appears to be interchangeable. John's wife was sometimes was referred to Anna Marie, Anna Maria or even just Maria. The letter "K" was often transposed to "C". Catharina Jernberg was, in Sweden, Katharina, the "C" being the American spelling. To add to the confusion, Catharina, her daughter, was usually referred to as Carin, and her mother, Katharina, was called Karin, which was actually her middle name. Perhaps this confusion of names led John Eric to often identify even close family members in his letter by full names. Peter Fredrik was usually referred to as PF, however. There were, in the family, three "Carls." The father, Carl Gustav; one son, Carl Olaf; (who was called Charles after he reached America) and Carin's young son Carl Erik. We appreciate the fact that John Eric was so precise in identifying who he was speaking about in his letters. We hope you will enjoy this glimpse of life in the mid and far West as seen through the eyes of John Eric Jernberg, Swedish immigrant. Its creation was truly a labor of love.

Book Synopsis Hollywood Highbrow by : Shyon Baumann
Download or read book Hollywood Highbrow written by Shyon Baumann and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2018-06-05 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Today's moviegoers and critics generally consider some Hollywood products--even some blockbusters--to be legitimate works of art. But during the first half century of motion pictures very few Americans would have thought to call an American movie "art." Up through the 1950s, American movies were regarded as a form of popular, even lower-class, entertainment. By the 1960s and 1970s, however, viewers were regularly judging Hollywood films by artistic criteria previously applied only to high art forms. In Hollywood Highbrow, Shyon Baumann for the first time tells how social and cultural forces radically changed the public's perceptions of American movies just as those forces were radically changing the movies themselves. The development in the United States of an appreciation of film as an art was, Baumann shows, the product of large changes in Hollywood and American society as a whole. With the postwar rise of television, American movie audiences shrank dramatically and Hollywood responded by appealing to richer and more educated viewers. Around the same time, European ideas about the director as artist, an easing of censorship, and the development of art-house cinemas, film festivals, and the academic field of film studies encouraged the idea that some American movies--and not just European ones--deserved to be considered art.

Download or read book Supernormal written by Meg Jay and published by Twelve. This book was released on 2017-11-14 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Clinical psychologist and author of The Defining Decade, Meg Jay takes us into the world of the supernormal: those who soar to unexpected heights after childhood adversity. Whether it is the loss of a parent to death or divorce; bullying; alcoholism or drug abuse in the home; mental illness in a parent or a sibling; neglect; emotional, physical or sexual abuse; having a parent in jail; or growing up alongside domestic violence, nearly 75% of us experience adversity by the age of 20. But these experiences are often kept secret, as are our courageous battles to overcome them. Drawing on nearly two decades of work with clients and students, Jay tells the tale of ordinary people made extraordinary by these all-too-common experiences, everyday superheroes who have made a life out of dodging bullets and leaping over obstacles, even as they hide in plain sight as doctors, artists, entrepreneurs, lawyers, parents, activists, teachers, students and readers. She gives a voice to the supernormals among us as they reveal not only "How do they do it?" but also "How does it feel?" These powerful stories, and those of public figures from Andre Agassi to Jay Z, will show supernormals they are not alone but are, in fact, in good company. Marvelously researched and compassionately written, this exceptional book narrates the continuing saga that is resilience as it challenges us to consider whether -- and how -- the good wins out in the end.

Book Synopsis El Cinco de Mayo by : David Hayes-Bautista
Download or read book El Cinco de Mayo written by David Hayes-Bautista and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2012-05-05 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why is Cinco de Mayo—a holiday commemorating a Mexican victory over the French at Puebla in 1862—so widely celebrated in California and across the United States, when it is scarcely observed in Mexico? As David E. Hayes-Bautista explains, the holiday is not Mexican at all, but rather an American one, created by Latinos in California during the mid-nineteenth century. Hayes-Bautista shows how the meaning of Cinco de Mayo has shifted over time—it embodied immigrant nostalgia in the 1930s, U.S. patriotism during World War II, Chicano Power in the 1960s and 1970s, and commercial intentions in the 1980s and 1990s. Today, it continues to reflect the aspirations of a community that is engaged, empowered, and expanding.
