Caribbean Literature And the Environment: Between Nature And Culture (New World Studies)

2005 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionPerhaps there is no other region in the world that has been more radically altered in terms of human and botanic migration, transplantation, and settlement than the Caribbean. Theorists such as Edouard Glissant argue that the dialectic between Caribbean `nature` and `culture,` engendered by this unique and troubled history, has not heretofore been brought into productive relation. Caribbean Literature and the Environment redresses this omission by gathering together eighteen essaysthat consider the relationship between human and natural history. The result is the first volume to examine the literatures of the Caribbean from an ecocritical perspective in all language areas of the region. In its exploration of the relationship between nature and culture, this collection focuses on four overlapping themes: how Caribbean texts inscribe the environmental impact of colonial and plantation economies, how colonial myths of edenic and natural origins are revisioned,… [detailed...]

Caring Capitalism: A New Middle Class Base for the Welfare State

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: Everywhere one travels in the world, people are excited about the new high technology production system. But the global villagers are also perplexed about the new social service needs that seem to accompany the high-tech economy, child care needs for working couples, elder care facilities for infirm senior citizens, burgeoning health care costs accompanying high-tech medicine, nusery school and college tuition costs, and more. There has been a global response to these social service needs, and this book will present and analyze that response. For, a new phenomenon may be emerging and as contradictory as it may appear, a kind of `caring capitalism` may arise, worldwide. This book explores the various attempts around the globe to create a system of `caring capitalism`—and why modern nations have been pressured by `the new middle class` to do so. [detailed...]

Caring for Mother: A Daughter`s Long Goodbye

2007 y.
Publisher: Westminster John Knox Press
Description: Starred Review. Death is never timely: it comes either too soon or too late. In The Year of Magical Thinking, Joan Didion recounts the aftermath of her husband`s sudden death at the dinner table. At the other edge of the spectrum, Owens describes seven years preceding her mother`s relentless descent into dementia, `God`s own breathe slowly leaking out through the fissures in her brain.` Afflicted first with Parkinson`s, then small strokes and Alzheimer`s disease, Mrs. Stem eventually required round-the-clock care. Owens moved next door and spent hours every day with her: `All I could do was squat beside the avalanche, listening for any sign of life, sometimes I could hear a faint but familiar echo of her voice or gesture from under the heap.` Through essays as incisive and insightful as Didion`s, this account succeeds on multiple levels: medical detective story, personal memoir, flawless description, philosophical and spiritual exploration (where is the self when the brain no longer… [detailed...]
