Scheherazade`s Legacy: Arab and Arab American Women on Writing

2004 y.
Publisher: —
Description: In a time when it seems that the gap of understanding between the West and the Middle East continues to widen, Scheherazade`s Legacy builds a bridge between the two cultures. Collected here are the voices of those who define the genre of Arab Anglophone writing--that literature that describes the cultural experiences of those with Arab identities living, and often writing, in the West. Contributions from such writers as Naomi Shihab Nye, Diana Abu-Jaber, Suheir Hammad, Etal Adnan, Elmaz Abinader, and others, explore the complexities of writing in and for a culture not entirely their own. The essays here, complemented by selections, mostly original, of each author`s work, promises to be a cornerstone in the study of writing by women writers of Arab descent who find themselves between two cultures, two worlds that are often at odds. With a foreword by Barbara Nimri Aziz, journalist, and founder of RAWI (Radius of Arab-American Writers), this collection is one of the first books to… [detailed...]

Pierre Berg, Brian Brock
Scheisshaus Luck: Surviving the Unspeakable in Auschwitz and Dora

2008 y.
Publisher: —
Description: In 1943, eighteen year old Pierre Berg picked the wrong time to visit a friend’s house—at the same time as the Gestapo. He was thrown into the infamous Auschwitz concentration camp. But through a mixture of savvy and chance, he man­aged to survive…ltimately got out alive. “As far as I’m concerned,” says Berg, “it was all shithouse luck, which is to say—inelegantly—that I kept landing on the right side of the randomness of life.” Such begins the first memoir of a French gentile Holocaust survivolished in the U.S. Originally penned shortly after the war when memories were still fresh, Scheisshaus Luck re­counts Berg’s constant struggle in the camps, escaping death countless times while enduring inhumane conditions, exhaustive labor, and near starn. The book takes readers through Berg’s time in Auschwitz, his hair’s breadth avoid­ance of Allied bombing raids, his harrowing “death march” out of Auschwitz to Dora, a slave labor camp (only to be placed in another forced labor… [detailed...]

Schemas in Problem Solving

2007 y.
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
Description: Schemas are major knowledge structures influencing the way people acquire and store information. Sandra Marshall explores a new theory of schema development and studies the applicability of the theory as a unified basis for understanding learning, instruction, and assessment. The theory`s prescriptions for teaching are direct, and its application to assessment suggests new directions for tests. After examining the roots of the theory in earlier work by philosophers and psychologists, the author illustrates the main features of her theory with experimental evidence from students who are learning to recognize and solve arithmetic story problems. She describes individual performance with traditional empirical studies as well as computer simulation. The computer simulation reflects a new approach in modeling cognition. Marshall`s model links neural networks with symbolic systems to form a hybrid model that uses pattern matching of sets of features as well as logical step-by-step rules…. [detailed...]

Schiller (Life &, Times)

2005 y.
Publisher: —
Description: The year 2005 marks the bicentenary of the death of one of the greatest figures in German literature. Friedrich Schiller (1759-1805) was a playwright, poet, historian and literary critic. Together with Goethe, whose friend and colleague he became, Schiller established the German language and its literature as essential components of European culture. His plays, including Wallenstein, Maria Stuart and Wilhelm Tell, have been translated and performed all over the world. This compact biography draws liberally on Schiller`s correspondence and on contemporary records. It places Schiller in the context of a rapidly changing Germany, with its many small, semi-feudal principalities confronting the tide of new ideas from revolutionary France, an increasingly confident middle class and a growing sense of German national identity. The book is illustrated throughout in color and monochrome. [detailed...]

Schmetterlinge weinen heimlich (German Edition)

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: In diesem ersten Buch, das Ursula Halbe herausgibt, hat sie eine Auswahl der Gedichte zusammen getragen, die in den letzten funfzehn Jahren entstanden sind. Die Autorin versteht es dabei in gelungener Weise, ihrer Suche nach dem Sinn des Lebens in knappen komprimierten Wortern Ausdruck zu verleihen. Die Gefuhlstiefe einer Vielzahl der hier veroffentlichten Gedichte erklart sich vor allem daraus, dass sie nicht eigentlich geschrieben worden sind, um in einem Gedichtband veroffentlicht zu werden, sondern weil die Autorin damit zum einen ihre ganz subjektive Wahrnehmung der Alltagswelt schildert ? jenes Abenteuers, dem wir alle jeden Tag aufs Neue ausgesetzt sind ? und zum anderen, weil sie damit auch eine Vielzahl von Emotionen verarbeitet, die biographische Bruche in ihrem Leben mit sich gebracht haben. Beachtenswert sind auch ihre tiefgrundigen Naturbeschreibungen, zum Beispiel im Gedicht ?Goldener Oktober?, mit denen Ursula Halbe ihre Liebe zur Natur zeigt. [detailed...]
