Poet in the New World: Poems, 1946-1953 by Czesław Miłosz, translated by Robert Hass, David Frick
English | February 4, 2025 | ISBN: 0063422999, 9780063423015 | True EPUB | 160 pages | 1.4 MB
A new collection of work from Nobel laureate Czeslaw Milosz that includes previously untranslated poems written during his time in Washington, D.C., and his years in Europe before and after

One of the most revered poets of the twentieth century, Czeslaw Milosz famously bore witness to its violence in his native Poland and in the war's aftermath from exile in Europe and the United States. Immediately after the war, he lived in Washington, D.C., working as a diplomatic official, having left behind an old world stained by bloodshed and still in the throes of ideological conflict as he sought to find his bearings in a new world.
Poet in the New World gathers the poems written during these years-for the first time in English translation-and is contextualized by the poetry that came directly before and after, from poems written in Warsaw in 1945, shortly before he departed for the United States, to others written in Europe from 1951 to 1953, after his significant time away. Capturing Milosz at his existential and stylistic best, Poet in the New World is attuned to the necessity of imagination and the duty of language and is filled with wonder and skepticism. Milosz grapples with the extraordinary violence he had witnessed in Warsaw and the strange postwar United States he has inhabited, all while pondering the enduring fate of his beloved Poland. In the poem "Warsaw," the poet asks, "How can I live in this country/Where the foot knocks against/the unburied bones of kin?"
Equal parts affecting and illuminating, Poet in the New World is an essential addition to the Milosz canon, in a beautifully rendered translation by Robert Hass and David Frick, that reverberates with the questions of histories past, present, and future.

Laurie Buonanno, "Policies and Policy Processes of the European Union Ed 2"
English | ISBN: 1352009854 | 2020 | 388 pages | PDF | 5 MB
The dynamic and complex system of European Union policymaking is analysed in this new edition of a much-praised textbook. It offers the most integrated understanding of EU policy available. Major approaches to policymaking - including intergovernmentalism, neofunctionalism, supranationalism and critical theory - are presented and supplemented with the authors' own theoretical model, federal integration, to create a comprehensive evaluation of the EU's interests and actors in key policy domains. The text covers the EU's main policy areas - including those on the single market, Economic and Monetary Union, foreign policy, migration and border control, social and regional policies, and the budget - locating them in this wider theoretical framework. As such, it is the key introduction to the subject for students of European Politics at undergraduate and postgraduate levels.

New to this Edition:
- Each chapter rewritten, many extensively, throughout
- New chapters on migration and border control, competition policy, and social and cohesion policies.
- New illustrative material and many new examples
- Each chapter now includes a Guide to Further Reading

Marilyn Yaquinto, "Policing the World on Screen: American Mythologies and Hollywood's Rogue Crimefighters"
English | ISBN: 3030248046 | 2019 | 325 pages | AZW3 | 3 MB
This book analyzes Hollywood storytelling that features an American crimefighter―whether cop, detective, or agent―who must safeguard society and the nation by any means necessary. That often means going "rogue" and breaking the rules, even deploying ugly violence, but excused as self-defense or to serve the greater good. This ends-justifies-means approach dates back to gunfighters taming the western frontier to urban cowboy cops battling urban savagery―first personified by "Dirty" Harry Callahan―and later dispatched in global interventions to vanquish threats to national security. America as the world's "policeman often means controlling the Other at home and abroad, which also extends American hegemony from the Cold War through the War on Terror. This book also examines pioneering portrayals by males of color and female crimefighters to embody such a social or national defender, which are frustrated by their existence as threats the white knight exists to defeat.

Patrick Schmidt, "Policy and the Political Life of Music Education"
English | ISBN: 0190246154 | 2017 | 296 pages | AZW3 | 1002 KB
Policy and the Political Life of Music Education is the first book of its kind in the field of Music Education. It offers a far-reaching and innovative outlook, bringing together expert voices who provide a multifaceted and global set of insights into a critical arena for action today: policy. On one hand, the book helps the novice to make sense of what policy is, how it functions, and how it is discussed in various parts of the world; while on the other, it offers the experienced educator a set of critically written analyses that outline the state of the play of music education policy thinking.

As policy participation remains largely underexplored in music education, the book helps to clarify to teachers how policy thinking does shape educational action and directly influences the nature, extent, and impact of our programs. The goal is to help readers understand the complexities of policy and to become better skilled in how to think, speak, and act in policy terms. The book provides new ways to understand and therefore imagine policy, approximating it to the lives of educators and highlighting its importance and impact. This is an essential read for anyone interested in change and how to better understand decision-making within music and education. Finally, this book, while aimed at the growth of music educators' knowledge-base regarding policy, also fosters 'open thinking' regarding policy as subject, helping educators straddling arts and education to recognize that policy thinking can offer creative designs for educational change.

Robert Huckfeldt, "Politics in Context: Assimilation and Conflict in Urban Neighborhoods"
English | 2008 | pages: 200 | ISBN: 0875860680 | PDF | 1,9 mb
Politics in Context: Assimilation and Conflict in Urban Neighborhoods by Robert Huckfeldt offers a comprehensive analysis of political dynamics in diverse urban communities. Drawing from real-world examples, Huckfeldt explores how local social networks influence political behavior, decision-making, and community cohesion. Through a deep dive into urban political culture, he provides valuable insights into the processes of assimilation, conflict, and power struggles within city neighborhoods.

The Power of Social Networks: Huckfeldt highlights how social relationships shape political beliefs and voting patterns. He demonstrates that political engagement is not just an individual activity but a social process influenced by community interactions.
Assimilation and Integration: The book examines how immigrant and minority groups navigate the political landscape of urban neighborhoods. Huckfeldt discusses the role of shared experiences, cultural adaptation, and community organizing in fostering political integration.
Conflict and Power Struggles: Urban neighborhoods are often sites of competition for resources and influence. Huckfeldt delves into how conflicts over housing, employment, and public services shape local politics, sometimes leading to protests, activism, and political realignment.
Neighborhood Dynamics: Huckfeldt's analysis underscores the unique characteristics of urban political environments, including the influence of neighborhood size, population density, and demographic composition on political mobilization and voter turnout.
Policy Implications: The book discusses how policymakers can address urban political challenges through inclusive policies that promote social equity, reduce conflict, and support civic engagement. Huckfeldt emphasizes the need for responsive governance that reflects the diverse interests of urban residents.
Relevance for Today: In an era of increasing urbanization and social diversity, Politics in Context remains a timely and insightful resource. Its exploration of assimilation, conflict, and social influence provides a framework for understanding modern political dynamics in multicultural societies.
Essential Reading: This book is ideal for students of political science, sociology, and urban studies, as well as policymakers and community leaders seeking to understand and address the complexities of urban political life. Huckfeldt's engaging analysis provides valuable lessons on the interaction between social networks and political power in city environments.

Nicole Scarano, "Pomegranate"
English | ISBN: 1549970089 | 2017 | 289 pages | EPUB | 277 KB
All legends are born out of truth. Yet there is one that's true story has all been but forgotten. Legend tells us that Zeus, Poseidon, and Hades were brothers who overthrew the first gods, taking the world for themselves. Drawing lots, Zeus, king of the gods, became ruler of the skies. Brave Poseidon drew the lot of the seas, but wicked Hades was tricked into drawing the lot of the Underworld where he became the most feared and hated of the gods. This is merely legend though. The truth... The truth is very different.

For in the beginning, Hades was not a god, but an immortal of Olympus. Once a mortal of earth, Hades had so pleased the gods that life among them was granted. On Mount Olympus, Hades' eternal youth was that of pure beauty said to have rivaled the beauty of Aphrodite herself. All were captivated by the splendor that was Hades, but Zeus most of all. For Zeus loved her.
But the love of a fickle god can be cruel, and Hades' betrayal will have its vengeance. For Hades is destined for a dark and terrible greatness.

Xisha Ma, "Popular Religion and Shamanism "
English | ISBN: 9004174559 | 2011 | 499 pages | AZW3 | 988 KB
Popular Religion and Shamanism addresses two areas of religion within Chinese society; the lay teachings that Chinese scholars term folk or "popular" religion, and shamanism. Each area represents a distinct tradition of scholarship, and the book is therefore split into two parts. Part I: Popular Religion discusses the evolution of organized lay movements over an arc of ten centuries. Its eight chapters focus on three key points: the arrival and integration of new ideas before the Song dynasty, the coalescence of an intellectual and scriptural tradition during the Ming, and the efflorescence of new organizations during the late Qing.

Part II: Shamanism reflects the revived interest of scholars in traditional beliefs and culture that reemerged with the "open" policy in China that occurred in the 1970s. Two of the essays included in this section address shamanism in northeast China where the traditions played an important role in the cultures of the Manchu, Mongol, Sibe, Daur, Oroqen, Evenki, and Hezhen. The other essay discusses divination rites in a local culture of southwest China. Both sections of

Pornography: Men Possessing Women by Andrea Dworkin
English | February 25th, 2025 | ISBN: 1250359252 | 336 pages | True EPUB | 0.89 MB
Andrea Dworkin's 1981 critique of pornography is an important and urgent document about how the culture consumes and manipulates images of women. Essential and discomfiting reading in a social media era, where women's bodies are being commodified and displayed more than ever.

Andrea Dworkin's seminal 1981 work on the issue of pornography argues that the industry serves only to harm and oppress women. Her discussion of pornography as an outgrowth of the power that men exert over women-the power of owning, the power of money, and the power of sex, among others-still blazes with its clarity and immediacy, and illustrates how these inequities, while displayed in raw form in pornography, are endemic in all media.
With a lively and deeply compelling voice, Andrea Dworkin succinctly outlines her anti-pornography stance. Though the media environment may have changed, this passionately and powerfully argued classic remains a relevant and crucial contribution to the area of feminist studies.

Zhang Mei, "Pornography, Ideology, and the Internet: A Japanese Adult Video Actress in Mainland China"
English | ISBN: 1498560881 | 2018 | 242 pages | AZW3 | 1025 KB
This book starts from the discussion of a pornography, but does not end with pornography. Rather, it suggests that a pornographic star can be treated as a cultural product which obtains rich cultural meanings. It contributes to the debate between the global homogenization paradigm and the creolization paradigm which predominates in multiple disciplines, through a thorough examination of the entire process of the cross-cultural migration of Aoi Sola, a Japanese adult video (AV) actress who has achieved amazing popularity in mainland China since 2010. Through fifteen-month participant observation inside the two Chinese agencies of Sola, this study reveals that the transformative intermediaries play a significant role in the transformation of the cultural product in the Chinese context, even though their operations are usually invisible to outsiders. The findings challenge the conventional scholarly assumption that foreign products produced by global producers are consumed "directly" by local consumers or that the significance of these intermediaries can be ignored. This study further extends the participant observation inside the realistic field to the virtual space of media in different countries, which can be called the second field. It demonstrates that multiple local groups, including intermediaries, Chinese commercial news portals, Party media, and Chinese Internet users, respond to the dominant ideologies in Chinese society by reinterpreting Sola in different, even contradictory, ways. Thus, this research refutes the presumption that a local society is a coherent monolith in the acceptance of foreign cultural products. The book also deepens the reader's understanding of Chinese Internet usage.

Portrait of a Feminist: A Memoir in Essays by Marianna Marlowe
English | February 25, 2025 | ISBN: 1647427525, 9781647427535 | True EPUB | 288 pages | 2.6 MB
Infused with a passion for justice, this sublime, expansive memoir by a Peruvian American feminist will appeal to fans of Crying in H Mart and How to Raise a Feminist Son.

Through braided memories that flash against the present day, Portrait of a Feminist depicts the evolution of Marianna Marlowe's identity as a biracial and multicultural woman-from her childhood in California, Peru, and Ecuador to her adulthood as an academic, a wife, and a mother.
How does the inner life of a feminist develop? How does a writer observe the world around her and kindle, from her earliest memories, a flame attuned to the unjust?
With writing that is simultaneously wise and shimmering, nuanced and direct, Marlowe confronts her own experiences with the hallmarks of patriarchy. Interweaving stories of life as the child of a Catholic Peruvian mother and an atheist American father in a family that lived many years abroad, she examines realities familiar to so many of us-unequal marriages, class structures, misogynist literature, and patriarchal religion. Portrait of a Feminist explores the essential questions of feminism in our time: What does it look like to live in defense of feminism? How should feminism be evolving today?
