Finding My Way Reflections on South African Literature

Finding My Way Reflections on South African Literature

This book reflects on South African literature from the perspective of 2020. It emerges from Duncan Brown’s experiences of three decades of working in this field of writing and scholarship. It is a personal intellectual exploration and an engagement with the institutional history of literary studies in South Africa and elsewhere. Finding My Way also attempts to find more creative engaging and intriguing modes of writing about literature and the humanities universally. It seeks to recover a sense of the imaginative the literary and the affective not only as things to value in the literary texts we read but also as ways of understanding and reading texts as ways of writing criticism—of registering how books make us feel as well as how they make us think.

Out of My Great Sorrows The Armenian Genocide and Artist Mary Zakarian

Out of My Great Sorrows is the story of Philadelphia artist Mary Zakarian whose life and work were shaped by the experiences of her mother a survivor of the 1915 Armenian Genocide. Written by Mary Zakarian's niece and nephew the narrative examines the complexities of the artist's life as they relate to many issues including ethnicity gender immigration and assimilation. Above all this is a story of trauma - its effects on the survivor its transmission through the generations and its role in the artistic experience. Zakarian painted obsessively throughout her life. As she gained recognition for her artwork she became increasingly haunted by her mother's untold story and was driven to express the tragedy of the Armenian Genocide in her art. Zakarian's attempt to deal openly with the issues of trauma and guilt caused conflicts in her relationship with her mother. These emotions became a driving force behind her art as well as the basis for her personal difficulties. By examining Mary Zakarian's life and art the authors bring new insights to the study of the Armenian experience. This moving story will inspire all those who have struggled to express themselves in the face of injustice and oppression. | Out of My Great Sorrows The Armenian Genocide and Artist Mary Zakarian

All My Relations: Understanding the Experiences of Native Americans with Disabilities

Native Americans suffer disproportionately from many social and health disparities. High rates of poverty exposure to environmental toxins and various forms of violence all increase the risk of health problems including disabilities yet there is very little published scholarship concerning Native American experiences with disabilities. In collecting contributions on various aspects of disability in Native American populations in one volume this book seeks to redress this lack of attention. Writing about regions of the United States Canada and Australia and spanning a diverse range of settings from remote rural areas to reservations to college campuses the authors are attentive to the impact of specific environments on their inhabitants. Taking into account both physical and social environment and recognizing the importance of cultural context this book is a good starting point for anyone interested in developing a better understanding of the experience of Native peoples living with disabilities. This book was originally published as a special issue of the Journal of Social Work in Disability & Rehabilitation. | All My Relations: Understanding the Experiences of Native Americans with Disabilities

I Answer with My Life Life Histories of Women Teachers Working for Social Change

I Answer with My Life Life Histories of Women Teachers Working for Social Change

Originally published in 1993. This book shows through the oral histories of ordinary women teachers that effective prescriptions for change do not come simply from policy-makers. The author focuses on the narratives of three groups of teachers in the USA: Catholic nuns; secular Jewish women; and Black women. For each of these the individual teachers’ narratives have been examined for constructions common to the group and these patterns are assembled into a discourse. Teachers’ self-identities are considered as are their assessments of the institutions in which they have worked and their relationships with the pupils. The text examines how the social role of the teacher is constructed by the lives of these women. Incorporating this perspective of diversity into the educational debate this book argues that these less dominant but important voices shouldn’t be ignored. | I Answer with My Life Life Histories of Women Teachers Working for Social Change

Being Lived by My Life A Sort of Autobiography

Being Lived by My Life A Sort of Autobiography

Originally published in 1957 this book was a new departure in autobiographies. It is both enlightening and entertaining. There is a happy blending of narrative reflection and occasional extracts from case histories which gives it a delightfully human character. But it is more than this. It is a story of the profound inward adventure of an exceptionally inquiring mind. From childhood to professional maturity it proceeds through economic difficulties love and tribulation to science and general medical practice. It tells how Dr Berg became so convinced of the psychogenesis of human suffering that with great courage he gave up his practice and personal security to search for the causes in mental conflict. The story proceeds through specialisation in psychiatry to analytical training and analytic practice building up in the later chapters to a description of the troubled mind in all its manifestations and of the medical analyst’s daily work. There is a new explanation of the psychology of love with the inclusion of personal as well as professional experiences. Here as throughout conclusions have an astonishing difference from orthodox or familiar speculation and this is because they are based strictly on knowledge professional and personal. The style is natural lively and lucid. Here is an opportunity to combine learning with entertainment for Dr Berg has an extraordinary flair for presenting difficult things attractively without sacrifice of scientific essentials. This book is a re-issue originally published in 1957. The language used is a reflection of its era and no offence is meant by the Publishers to any reader by this re-publication. | Being Lived by My Life A Sort of Autobiography

Beggars Banquet and the Rolling Stones' Rock and Roll Revolution ‘They Call My Name Disturbance'

Beggars Banquet and the Rolling Stones' Rock and Roll Revolution ‘They Call My Name Disturbance'

The Rolling Stones’ Beggars Banquet is one of the seminal albums in rock history. Arguably it not only marks the advent of the ‘mature’ sound of the Rolling Stones but lays out a new blueprint for an approach to blues-based rock music that would endure for several decades. From its title to the dark themes that pervade some of its songs Beggars Banquet reflected and helped define a moment marked by violence decay and upheaval. It marked a move away from the artistic sonic flourishes of psychedelic rock towards an embrace of foundational streams of American music – blues country – that had always underpinned the music of the Stones but assumed new primacy in their music after 1968. This move coincided with and anticipated the ‘roots’ moves that many leading popular music artists made as the 1960s turned toward a new decade; but unlike many of their peers whose music grew more ‘soft’ and subdued as they embraced traditional styles the music and attitude of the Stones only grew harder and more menacing and their status as representatives of the dark underside of the 60s rock counterculture assumed new solidity. For the Rolling Stones the 1960s ended and the 1970s began with the release of this album in 1968. | Beggars Banquet and the Rolling Stones' Rock and Roll Revolution ‘They Call My Name Disturbance'

A Narrative of my Professional Adventures by Sir William Henry Dillon 1790-1839 Vol. I

A Narrative of my Professional Adventures by Sir William Henry Dillon 1790-1839 Vol. I

Sir William Henry Dillon (1780-1857) was born in Birmingham the illegitimate son of the distinguished writer and traveller John Talbot Dillon (1734-1806) a baron of the Holy Roman Empire. The elder Dillon had briefly served in the Royal Navy apparently obtaining his discharge in a fit of pique after being ejected when a midshipman from the Parade Coffee House in Portsmouth a hostelry reserved for captains. Sir William’s long enjoyable and informative memoirs edited by Professor Michael A Lewis one of the doyens of naval historians are arguably the best by any naval officer of the period and for anyone seeking an intimate glimpse into the workings of the Georgian navy and the professional concerns and vexations of its officer corps they are essential reading. The narrative never dull is enhanced by the editor’s erudite and where appropriate witty commentaries by the sense we derive of the author’s personal foibles and by his numerous exasperated references to ‘Mrs V’ (Matilda Voller) a middle-aged widow who ensnared Dillon into marriage when he was a young lieutenant recently returned from incarceration in France. Other illuminative Georgian memoirs in the NRS series of publications are those of Admiral Sir Thomas Byam Martin (vols 12 19 24) Captain John Harvey Boteler (vol 82) and Commander James Anthony Gardner (vol 31) Gardner’s being like Dillon’s especially vivid. William Dillon entered the navy in 1790 and saw action on the Glorious First of June in 1794 in Lord Bridport’s engagement off the Île de Groix in 1795 and at the capture of St Lucia in 1796. Commissioned lieutenant in 1797 he served off the coast of Wexford during the Irish rebellion. This volume takes his career up to 1802. | A Narrative of my Professional Adventures by Sir William Henry Dillon 1790-1839 Vol. I

Social Policy In A Nondemocratic Regime The Case Of Public Housing In Brazil

Social Policy In A Nondemocratic Regime The Case Of Public Housing In Brazil

This book had its origins in my doctoral research at the London School of Economics. It developed more rapidly than expected thanks to the good will and collective efforts of various people and institutions who provided help and support-material intellectual and moralthroughout four years at the LSE and two years at Tel Aviv University. I am most grateful to George Philip and Patrick Dunleavy who have patiently read the many drafts and offered their comments and suggestions at various stages of this work. I would also like to thank Peter Dawson who during my early days at the LSE as a research and MSc student supervised advised and above all encouraged my intentions to carry out research on developing countries. Henrique Rattner of the Fundacao Getulio Vargas provided me not only with technical support but also introduced me to the complex Brazilian bureaucracy. Gabriel Bolaffi of the Faculty of Architecture and Urbanism at the University of Sao Paulo made it possible for me to gain access to the otherwise restricted public housing agencies. I also extend my gratitude to the officials at COHAB/SP CODESPAULO INOCOOP and the BNH (in Rio de Janeiro and Sao Paulo) who spared precious time to be interviewed and supplied me with published and unpublished documents. The IPT (Sao Paulo Institute of Technological Research) provided the primary material on ltaquera and enabled me to use their computing facilities and process the data. Special thanks are due to Ros Mari Kaupatez. The friends we made in Sao Paulo whose welcome and warmth surpassed all expectations made a long stay more bearable. This project could not have been carried out without the moral and financial support of both my grandfather and my parents who took a deep interest in my studies and encouraged me during difficult periods. A debt of thanks is also owed to the Publication Committee of the London School of Economics especially P. C. Davis. Anthony Hall's comments were very valuable. Thanks are due to the Faculty of Social Sciences and the Department of Political Science at Tel Aviv University for financial help in preparing this work for publication. Finally this study is dedicated to my wife Sarah who interrupted her studies to accompany me to Brazil and helped me in ways I cannot adequately acknowledge. | Social Policy In A Nondemocratic Regime The Case Of Public Housing In Brazil

The Privacy of the Self

The Privacy of the Self

The Privacy of the Self was the first collection of papers showing the development of the author's thinking over twenty five years of clinical work. He was nurtured in the tradition of Anna Freud John Rickman and D. W. Winnicott but his contribution to psychoanalytic literature was a distinctive and personal one. What emerges from this book is the natural and private crystallization of his experiences with his patients and teachers. As he says in his preface: Psychoanalysis is an extremely private discipline of sensibility and skill. The practice of psychoanalysis multiplies this privacy into a specialized relationship between two persons who through the very nature of their exclusivity with each other change each other. The first thing I wish to say about my work reported in these papers is that my patients have helped me become and personalize my potential of thought affectivity and effort into a way of life that I find deeply satisfying.
