Fierce Friends: Artists And Animals, 1750-1900

2005 y.
Publisher: Merrell
Description: Humans and animals have coexisted for millions of years as friends, co-workers, and enemies - notably, our close connection with other creatures was the first subject of art. `Fierce Friends: Artists arid Animals, 1750-1900№ examines a critical period in our evolving relationship with animals. Between the mid-eighteenth and the early twentieth centuries, the philosophical legacy of the Enlightenment, the mechanical inventions of the Industrial Revolution, and the intellectual transformation sparked by Charles Darwin undermined many of the traditional roles assigned to animals, and overturned our view of them as physically, mentally - and divinely - separated from humans. This book interweaves the history of science and of art in a fascinating account of how humans came to understand and appreciate their shared biological ancestry. Fierce Friends explores how painters, sculptors, illustrators, and ceramists reflected contemporary changes in the perception of animals,… [detailed...]

Diane P. Mines
Fierce Gods: Inequality, Ritual, And The Politics Of Dignity In A South Indian Village

2005 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionThe importance of temple ritual in constituting political dominance in South India has been well documented. In this vivid and compelling study of caste and ritual in rural Tamilnadu, Diane P. Mines focuses not only on the temples of the socially powerful, but even more so on the powerful temples of the socially weak. Drawing on phenomenological and existential anthropology, she argues that the village is a heterogeneous reality made and remade by its residents through their own activity.Exploring the intersection of politics, ritual, caste, and other forms of social inequality, this ethnography presents a new view of the village and argues for its reemergence as a unit of analysis.

Fiesers` Reagents for Organic Synthesis

2008 y.
Publisher: —
Description: From reviews of previous volumes: `Essential for chemistry collections at the university and research levels.` --New York Public Library `Highly recommended . . . lots of succinct, practical information on recent developments . . . in a format that is easy to use. The reagents are taken up in alphabetical order (common usage names, not CAS indexing codenames), sometimes several to a page, sometimes several pages to a reagent. One can expect to find how to make the reagent (in loose terms), or where it can be bought, what it is good for, and where to seek complete details. As with previous volumes, one can profit from just browsing, even if one does not feel a need to look up any particular subject. It is thus a secondary function of the book to help one keep abreast of the field, and it would be a rare chemist who would not learn something new and useful from a casual perusal of the pages.` --Journal of the American Chemical Society This highly successful series… [detailed...]

Luther Benson
Fifteen Years in Hell

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Fifteen Years in Hell Is the 1885 autobiography of Luther Benson. Benson struggled with alcohol most of his life. His drinking led to his leaving college. Benson made a promise to his mother to not drink, but as so many addicts do he broke his word. This is his story and it is more importantly a plea to others to not follow in his path. His introduction says, ``FIFTEEN YEARS IN HELL,` may, to some, seem irreverent or profane, but let me assure any such that it is the mildest I can find which conveys an idea of the facts. Expect nothing ornate or romantic. The path along which you who walk with me will go is not a flowery one. Its shadows are those of the cypress and yew, its skies are curtained with funereal clouds, its beginning is a gloom and its end is a mad house. But go with me, for you can suffer no harm, and a knowledge of what you will see may lead you to warn others who are in danger of doing as I have done. Unless help comes to me from on high, I feel that I am near the… [detailed...]

Fifty Is Not a Four-Letter Word

2009 y.

Description: As Hope Lyndhurst-Steele approaches her 50th birthday, although she `has it all`--top magazine job, wonderful husband, loving son, many friends--fifty still feels like a four-letter word. But she doesn`t know just how low she can go. When she returns to the office after her holiday break, she`s informed by senior management that the `having it all` woman is OUT--and Hope`s out along with her. As she starts spending her days at home, her relationship with her usually patient husband Jack starts to become strained, and her teenage son is more interested in chasing after the local trashy single mom than spending his last year at home with his own mother. And Hope`s own mother, who she never got along with, has cheerily announced that she`s got six months left to live. Hope is relieved when a solo trip to Paris wakes up her long-dormant libido, but when she returns, she finds that her husband is giving her more space than she`d like--he`s moved out.As Hope wonders if she`ll be able to… [detailed...]
