2003 y.

Description: Book DescriptionIn the first comprehensive exploration of the history and practice of folk medicine in the Appalachian region, Anthony Cavender melds folklore, medical anthropology, and Appalachian history and draws extensively on oral histories and archival sources from the nineteenth century to the present.

Folklore: In All of Us, in All We Do (Publications of the Texas Folklore Society)

2006 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Folklore is everywhere, whether you are aware of it or not. A culture`s traditional knowledge is used to remember the past and maintain traditions, to communicate with other members within a community, to learn, to celebrate, and to express creativity. It is what helps distinguish one culture from another. Although folklore is so much a part of our daily lives, we often lose sight of just how integral it is to everything we do. If we look for it, we can find folklore in places where we`d never think it existed. Folklore: In All of Us, In All We Do includes articles on a variety of topics. One chapter looks at how folklore and history complement one another, while historical records provide facts about dates, places and names, folklore brings those events and people to life by making them relevant to us. Several articles examine the cultural roles women fill. Other articles feature folklore of particular groups, including oil field workers, mail carriers, doctors,… [detailed...]

Folktales of the Jews: Tales from the Sephardic Dispersion (Folktales of the Jews)

2006 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Tales from the Sephardic Dispersion begins the most important collection of Jewish folktales ever published. It is the first volume in Folktales of the Jews, the five-volume series to be released over the next several years, in the tradition of Louis Ginzberg`s classic, Legends of the Jews. The 71 tales here and the others in this series have been selected from the Israel Folktale Archives (IFA), a treasure house of Jewish lore that has remained largely unavailable to the entire world until now. Since the creation of the State of Israel, the IFA has collected more than 20,000 tales from newly arrived immigrants, long-lost stories shared by their families from around the world. The tales come from the major ethno-linguistic communities of the Jewish world and are representative of a wide variety of subjects and motifs, especially rich in Jewish content and context. Each of the tales is accompanied by in-depth commentary that explains the tale`s cultural, historical, and… [detailed...]

Follies and Fantasies: Germany and Austria

1994 y.
Publisher: Harry N. Abrams
Description: Splendid palaces, soaring towers, elaborate garden pavilions, verdant parks filled with elegant statuary - all reflect the taste of the wealthy, aristocratic, and artistic elite of Germany and Austria that comprised the driving force behind the architectural expressions illustrated in this book, embodying not only the flamboyance of Baroque and the grace of Rococo, but the clear articulation of Art Nouveau as well. From Frederick the Great`s evocative Sans Souci Palace and Orangery in Potsdam to the maze of theaters, groves, alcoves, and fountains that enriched the country estate and park of Archbishop Marcus Sitiicns at Hellbrunn outside Salzburg, the reader will find a series of visual delights on every page, and a wealth of anecdotes that bring to life a predominantly royal retinue of energetic, enthusiastic (if sometimes eccentric) men and women who once lived-and often frolicked-amid these delightful follies and fantasies. Follies and Fantasies: Germain and Austria is… [detailed...]

Following Sexual Abuse: A Sociological Interpretation of Identify Reformation in Reflexive Therapy

2008 y.
Publisher: University of Toronto Press
Description: Sexual abuse is a subject that has received and continues to attract a considerable amount of scholarly attention. However, most studies tend to treat sexual abuse as strictly personal and isolated suffering. Following Sexual Abuse attempts to develop a broader perspective on this important issue via narrated accounts of women?s experiences. It is a sociological investigation that looks at the connection between the intra-personal and social worlds of victims as revealed through reflexive therapy. Marie C. Croll explores the transformational space between intra-personal and social experiences of self, a dual perspective that allows room for both personal and collective experiences to enter into a discussion of sexual abuse and its effects. She argues that private and public interpretations need to be considered together as their influences on the individual are inseparable. Using individual case studies, Croll demonstrates the extent to which variable public perspectives on… [detailed...]

Following the Money: The Enron Failure and the State of Corporate Disclosure

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: A few years ago, Americans held out their systems of corporate governance and financial disclosure as models to be emulated by the rest of the world. But in late 2001 U.S. policymakers and corporate leaders found themselves facing the largest corporate accounting scandals in American history. The spectacular collapses of Enron and Worldcom?as well as the discovery of accounting irregularities at other large U.S. companies?seemed to call into question the efficacy of the entire system of corporate governance in the United States. In response, Congress quickly enacted a comprehensive package of reform measures in what has come to be known as the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. The New York Stock Exchange and the NASDAQ followed by making fundamental changes to their listing requirements. The private sector acted as well. Accounting firms?watching in horror as one of their largest, Arthur Andersen, collapsed after a criminal conviction for document shredding?tightened their… [detailed...]

Janet Mason Ellerby
Following the Tambourine Man: A Birthmother`s Memoir

2007 y.
Publisher: Syracuse University Press
Description: Set during the sexual revolution of the sixties, this moving work recalls the decade`s prodigious effect on a generation of Americans that came of age during that transformative time of changing mores. Janet Mason Ellerby follows the crooked path she took from a protected and privileged childhood and early adolescence to her unplanned pregnancy and banishment and to her daughter`s birth and adoption. She then delves into the complex journey embarked on over the next thirty-five years, haunted by her first child`s memory and attempting to compensate for her loss. Ellerby crafts an autoethnography, relating and reflecting upon the changes in middle-class American attitudes that informed the conservative suburbs of the fifties, through the political revolution of the sixties, seventies, and into today. In so doing, she provides a personal commentary on the shifts in adoption culture and describes the overlooked heartbreak that many birthmothers endure. [detailed...]

Description: Book Description`A skeptical Canadian`s odyssey and modern-day search for the American Dream while walking the famous Mormon Trail. Chisholm`s solo journey from the Missouri River to Salt Lake City is both a revealing and tongue-in-cheek account of the Mormon pioneers as well as a contemporary and compelling narrative of the American dreamers he came across on his 1100 mile walk. Hard-edged, sardonic and at times brutally revealing in his writing, Chisholm contrasts the failed dreams of `community` with the dream of `individuality` that dominates today`s mythic West - reminiscent of John Steinbeck and William Least Heat-Moon but penned with the irreverence of Edward Abbey.` [detailed...]
