Thirty Years of World Bank Shelter Lending: What Have We Learned? (Directions in Development) (Directions in Development)

2006 y.
Publisher: —
Description: As England`s Industrial Revolution started the process of urbanization that has since characterized development throughout the world, a poet worried about the `dark satanic mills` that were such a fundamental part of this revolution. However, despite his misgivings, he also suggested that it was necessary for societies to arm themselves with `chariots of fire` and other weapons so that they could master this process. In a somewhat more prosaic poetic vein World Bank President Robert McNamara launched the bank`s shelter assistance programs saying that `If cities do not begin to deal more constructively with poverty, poverty may begin to deal more destructively with cities.` These concerns would appear to have even more resonance today as the population of cities in developing countries increasing by unprecedented levels of more than 1 billion people per year for the next 15 years. This magnitude suggests the scale of the increase in the investment in shelter needed to meet the… [detailed...]

Jan Zwicky
Thirty-seven Small Songs &, Thirteen Silences

2005 y.
Publisher: —
Description: For the past several years, Jan Zwicky has been developing a definition and working examples of the word “lyric.” Her writing has taken the shape of poetry and philosophy, neither necessarily confined to the traditions of those genres. Thirty-seven Small Songs &, Thirteen Silences is the latest in this ongoing focus, previously explored in collections like Songs for Relinquishing the Earth (1998) and in her philosophic works, including Lyric Philosophy (1992) and Wisdom &, Metaphor (Gaspereau Press, 2003). The songs in this collection are odes, addresses and apostrophes, to household fixtures, human emotions, shades of light, seasons, stretches of land, departures, sounds and solitude. Working with the most associative details, Zwicky has whittled encounters with her subjects down to their integral and resounding notes. A single light shining from a house in the winter is the bathtub’s call to its tired owner. Dew on the grass is… [detailed...]

This Art : A Copper Canyon Ares Poetica Anthology (Copper Canyon Press Anthology)

Publisher: —
Description: Book Description The centuries have changed little in this art, ?The subjects are still the same.-Kenneth Rexroth ?? Why poetry? What is poetry and why do people write it and read it? Why, as Dana Levin has written, `this urge to making a scrapbook of stars`? ?? Every poet, by accident or design, has responded to `Why poetry` by writing a poem about poetry (an ars poetica). Whether these poems focus on the personal, political, or philosophical, each recognizes that our world is more complicated than a direct statement. ?? As Marvin Bell has written, `Writing is all and everything.` This anthology of poems about the art and life of poetry-which draws widely from Copper Canyon`s 30-year backlist of poetry books-proves him right. ?? Poets write out of love and longing: ?? Lord, let me live / long enough to dare /a love poem?-Cyrus Cassells ?? Poets confront suffering: ?? since we will always have a suffering world,?we must also… [detailed...]

This Blessed Wilderness: Archibald McDonald`s Letters from the Columbia, 1822-44

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: The twenty-five years between 1821 and 1846 were turbulent but important years in the history of the fur trade in the Pacific Northwest: 1821 saw the merger of the Hudson?s Bay Company and the North West Company, and 1846 saw the signing of the Oregon Treaty, which established the Canada-U.S. border. Archibald McDonald was a man who experienced these changes first hand. As a senior HBC officer, he was sent to the Columbia District headquarters at Fort George in 1821 to oversee the recently absorbed NWC posts and assets. After the merger, McDonald went on to direct operations at Thompson River (1826-28), Fort Langley (1828-33), and Fort Colvile (1833-44). During his tenure in the Pacific Northwest, letters were McDonald?s only link with the outside world. Collected here for the first time by Jean Murray Cole, these public and private letters to friends, business colleagues, missionaries, botanists, and many others provide a fascinating narrative of the expansion of the… [detailed...]
