Mary Austin
The Land of Journeys` Ending

2005 y.
Publisher: —
Description: 1924. Mary Hunter Austin, regional writer, whose most successful books, The Land of Little Rain and The Land of Journeys` Ending, grew out of her personal knowledge of the land she lived in. The region she writes about in this book is the high plateau country lying between the Colorado and Rio Grande rivers, the traditional homeland of many of the Indian peoples she studied, the Pueblo, the Zuni, the Hopi, the Navajo. She called it Land of Journeys` Ending because she believed that this part of the Southwest would be the center for a new regional culture-one which would combine the Indian, Spanish and Anglo influences and one which would grow out of a people`s successful adaptation to the environment.

Regina McBride
The Land of Women : A Novel

2003 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book Description Akin to Alice McDermott, Regina McBride has crafted a gem that explores exile and memory, and the ways in which passion transcends time and distance. She tries to remember her mother`s voice and the pitch and treble of it passes through her, the rhythm of it so clear that for a moment they are…connected by frail strings. So begins The Land of Women, and we are swept into Fiona O`Faolain`s last summer in Ireland, the season of her burgeoning sexuality. It is a time, too, when mother and daughter step toward friendship among the voluminous gowns they make for local brides. Yet that giddy summer also delivers betrayal. Fiona`s journey from the shame that ended her girlhood takes her to Santa Fe and to Carlos Aragon, a restorer of antiquities, whose ancestry is mysteriously linked to hers. As he explores their pasts with the precision of an artisan, Fiona must face her excruciating memory. In The Land of Women the… [detailed...]

Thucydides, Robert B. Strassler
The Landmark Thucydides: A Comprehensive Guide to the Peloponnesian War

1998 y.
Publisher: Free Press
Description: Thucydides` History of the Peloponnesian War is one of the great books in the Western tradition, as well as its first true historical narrative. Editor Robert Strassler has annotated this classic text to make it more accessible to modern readers and added dozens of maps for easy reference. A helpful introduction places Thucydides in proper historical context and a series of short appendices focus on particular aspects of life and war during the period. But the bulk of the book itself, where Thucydides chronicles the long struggle between Athens and Sparta, enjoys an unexpected freshness on these pages--partly due to Strassler`s magnificent editorial labors, but mostly because it`s a great story resonant with heroes, villains, bravery, desperation, and tragedy. Every library should have a copy of Thucydides in it, especially libraries on military history, and The Landmark Thucydides is without question the best version available. [detailed...]

The Landscape Of Stalinism: The Art and Ideology of Soviet Space (Studies in Modernity and National Identity)

2005 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionThis wide-ranging cultural history explores the expression of Bolshevik Party ideology through the lens of landscape, or, more broadly, space. Portrayed in visual images and words, the landscape played a vital role in expressing and promoting ideology in the former Soviet Union during the Stalin years, especially in the 1930s. At the time, the iconoclasm of the immediate postrevolutionary years had given way to nation building and a conscious attempt to create a new Soviet `culture.` In painting, architecture, literature, cinema, and song, images of landscape were enlisted to help mold the masses into joyful, hardworking citizens of a state with a radiant, utopian future -- all under the fatherly guidance of Joseph Stalin. From backgrounds in history, art history, literary studies, and philosophy, the contributors show how Soviet space was sanctified, coded, and `sold` as an ideological product. They explore the ways in which producers of various art forms used… [detailed...]

Description: With populations decentralizing and cities sprawling ever-outward, twenty-?rst-century urban planners are challenged by the need to organize not just people but space itself.

Fourteen essays written by leading ?gures across a range of disciplines and from around the world including James Corner, Linda Pollak, Alan Berger, Pierre B langer, Julia Czerniak, and more capture the origins, the contemporary milieu, and the aspirations of this relatively new ?eld. The Landscape Urbanism Reader is an inspiring signal to the future of city making as well as an indispensable reference for students, teachers, architects, and urban planners. [detailed...]

The Language Police: How Pressure Groups Restrict What Students Learn

2004 y.
Publisher: Vintage
Description: The impulse in the 1960s and ‘70s to achieve fairness and a balanced perspective in our nation’s textbooks and standardized exams was undeniably necessary and commendable. Then how could it have gone so terribly wrong? Acclaimed education historian Diane Ravitch answers this question in her informative and alarming book, The Language Police: How Pressure Groups Restrict What Students Learn. Author of 7 books, Ravitch served as the U.S. Assistant Secretary of Education from 1991 to 1993. Her expertise and her 30-year commitment to education lend authority and urgency to this important book, which describes in copious detail how pressure groups from the political right and left have wrested control of the language and content of textbooks and standardized exams, often at the expense of the truth (in the case of history), of literary quality (in the case of literature), and of education in general. Like most people involved in education, Ravitch did not realize `that educational… [detailed...]
