Crossing The Line

2003 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book Description As social attitudes change, an increasing number of individuals choose to redefine their gender. Davidmann focuses on individuals cross-dressing from male to female and involves the participation of transvestites, drag queens and transsexuals. Cross-dressing involves the creation of an illusion-a total, if temporary, transformation. Nevertheless, the illusion often retains clues to the underlying gender base and the resulting image appears to exist somewhere between the polarities of male and female-containing elements of both-as if a third gender has been created. Working over a period of three years in clubs, bars, individuals` homes and in the studio, the images are a true collaboration between photographer and subject. [detailed...]

Crossing into America: The New Literature of Immigration

2005 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionA literary portrait of immigrant America including contributions from celebrated authors, young writers, and undocumented workers. This outstanding collection captures the diverse voices of the new literature of American immigration. Bringing together beautiful writing from celebrated authors such as Sandra Cisneros, Jamaica Kincaid, Maxine Hong Kingston, and Chang-Rae Lee, Crossing into America fills the literary void in public discussion about immigration. Since the immigration reforms of 1965 removed many of the racial barriers in American immigration laws, a new wave of immigrants has visibly transformed a society that has long prided itself on being a nation of immigrants. Crossing into America includes stories and memoirs of writers born in Mexico, Kashmir, the Philippines, South Africa, and Romania, as well as poignant reflections on the immigrant experience by the children of immigrants. This book follows these newest arrivals?from… [detailed...]

Warren Lehrer
Crossing the BLVD: Strangers, Neighbors, Aliens in a New America

2003 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionA kaleidoscopic view of new immigrants and refugees living in Queens, New York?the most ethnically diverse locality in the United States. For three years, Warren Lehrer and Judith Sloan traveled the world by trekking the streetsof their home borough. This book (and its companion audio CD) documents the people they encountered along the way. First person narratives are illuminated by strikingly direct photographic portraits of the subjects alongside the objects of their worlds. Lehrer`s postmodern, Talmudic design juxtaposes the multiple perspectives of these new Americans, now thrown together as neighbors, classmates, coworkers, enemies, and friends. They reflect on the good, the ugly and the unexpected in their stories of crossing oceans, borders, wars, economic hardship, and cultural divides. These soulful narratives are put in context by the authors` personal and historical observations. The voices, images and sounds collected here form a portrait of a… [detailed...]

Crossing the Hudson

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Gustav Rubin, a fur dealer in Vienna, flies to New York to spend the summer with his wife and two young children in a lake house north of the city. When he arrives late at JFK, he is met by his opinionated, unrelenting mother, Rosa. They rent a car and set out for Lake Gilead. But Gustav loses his way, and son and mother end up on the wrong side of the river. Trying to find the right route north, they become trapped on the Tappan Zee Bridge in the traffic jam of all traffic jams– a truck transporting toxic chemicals has turned over–and Gustav and Mother remain gridlocked high above the Hudson River. Gustav begins to think of his beloved father, a renowned intellectual, now eleven months dead. Then, in a surprising, highly original twist worthy of Kafka, both Gustav and Mother see the body–`the colossal, golem-like fatherbody`– of Ludwig David Rubin floating naked in the waters below.Jungk gives a profound meditation on a Jewish family and its past, especially the lasting distorting… [detailed...]

Description: Crossing the River is a personal memoira??and more. Against the backdrop of Lithuania’s occupation?first by the Red Army, next by the Germans, and then again by the Russians?it is a story reflected through the prism of a sharp-eyed young child, Shalom Eilati. His story starts in the occupied Kovno Ghetto and ends with his flight across the Soviet border, through Poland and Germany and finally, his arrival in Palestine. The adult survivor, while recalling the terrorized child that he was and how he then perceived the adult world, also takes stock of his present life. Throughout the memoir, Eilati attempts to reconcile his present life as a husband, father, scientist, and writer, with the images, feelings, and thoughts from the past that have left an indelible mark on his life and that continue to haunt him.

Crossing the Unknown Sea: Work As a Pilgrimage of Identity

Publisher: —
Description: Crossing the Unknown Sea shows how poetry and practicality, far from being mutually exclusive, reinforce each other to give every aspect of our lives meaning and direction. For anyone who wants to deepen their connection to their work-or find out what their life`s work is-this book is essential to navigating the way. `Readers who accept poet and Fortune 500 consultant Whyte`s invitation to enter into `an imaginative conversation about life and work` are likely to be challenged as well as delighted by the beauty of his writing and the expansiveness of his views. Gracefully using the metaphor of a sea voyage to depict the journey through the world of work, Whyte views work not only as a means of support, but as a means for interacting with the world and developing self-expression and identity…An abundance of provocative ideas… thoughtful readers will wholeheart-edly savor this book.` ( Publishers Weekly , starred review) [detailed...]

Crosslinguistic Perspectives on Argument Structure: Implications for Learnability

2007 y.
Publisher: Routledge
Description: This book offers a unique interdisciplinary perspective on argument structure and its role in language acquisition. Drawing on a broad range of crosslinguistic data, this volume shows that languages are much more diverse in their argument structure properties than has been realized. The volume is the outcome of an integrated research project and comprises chapters by both specialists in first language acquisition and field linguists working on a variety of lesser-known languages. The research draws on original fieldwork and on adult data, child data, or both from seventeen languages from eleven different language families. Some chapters offer typological perspectives, examining the basic structures of a given language with language-learnability issues in mind. Other chapters investigate specific problems of language acquisition in one or more languages. Taken as a whole, the volume illustrates how detailed work on crosslinguistic variation is critical to the development of… [detailed...]
