In our modern world of smartphones, video games, wifi hotspots, and Netflix, it's hard to imagine that, less than eighty years ago, there were people in rural Arkansas who were still scratching a living off the land. What makes this book so very special and historically relevant is simple - This book was not written by some college professor who, with clinical indifference, made an extensive study into a bygone era and then wrote down his cold musings on life in those days. Instead, the author of this book relates his own experiences with humble honesty and wit-filled humor. His fond childhood recollections are framed by the wisdom of many years as he relates what life was like for himself and his family during the 1940's. Product details Format Hardback ...

Taking a broad approach, Beyond Quality in Early Childhood Education and Care relates issues of early childhood to the sociology of childhood, philosophy, ethics, political science and other fields and to an analysis of the world we live in today. It places these issues in a global context and draws on work from Canada, Sweden and Italy, including the world famous nurseries in Reggio Emilia. Working with postmodern ideas, this book questions the search to define and measure quality in the early childhood field and its tendency to reduce philosophical issues of value to purely technical and managerial issues of expert knowledge and measurement. With a brand new Preface to this classic text, the authors argue that there are other ways than the 'discourse of quality' for understanding and evaluating early childhood pedagogical work and relate these to alternative ways of understanding early childhood itself and the purposes of early childhood institutions. ...

Vom ganz normalen Wahnsinn zwischen Kind, Kerl und Karriere Bis zur Geburt des ersten Kindes leben Frauen und Männer heute meist als emanzipiertes Paar. Doch kaum ist das Baby da, wird schnell klar: Für die Frau ändert sich viel mehr als nur der Bauchumfang: Die neuen Mütterwunder arbeiten in Voll- oder Teilzeit, kaufen ein, erziehen, kochen, schlafen NICHT und recherchieren bei Mutti.de, wie man Karottenflecken entfernt. Die Männer dagegen scheinen wie vom Erdboden verschluckt, dabei sind sie ganz leicht zu finden: in der Arbeit - fern vom Haushalt und der alltäglichen Kinderbetreuung. Auch Monika Bittl und Silke Neumayer haben diese Erfahrung gemacht und berichten witzig, ehrlich und charmant vom Leben als Alleinerziehende - mit Mann. Product details Format Paper...

The frescoes of Peruzzi, Raphael and Sodoma still dazzle visitors to the Villa Farnesina, but they survive in a stripped-down environment bereft of its landscape, sealed so it cannot breathe. Turner takes you outside that box, restoring these canonical images to their original context, when each element joined in a productive conversation. He is the first to reconstruct the architect-painter Peruzzi's original, well-proportioned, well-appointed building and to re-visualize his lost facade decoration-erotic scenes and mythological figures who make it come alive and soar upward. More comprehensively than any previous scholar, he reintegrates painting, sculpture, architecture, garden design, topographical prints and drawings, archaeological discoveries and literature from the brilliant circle around the patron Agostino Chigi, the powerful banker who 'loved all virtuosi' and commissioned his villa-palazzo from the best talents in multiple arts. It can now be understood as a P...

R. Martin's monumental epic cycle of high fantasy that began with A Game of Thrones.

Este libro propone una lectura feminista dialógica de Charlotte Perkins Gilman, Meridel Le Sueur y Mijail M. Bajtín. La primera parte está dedicada al relato corto, considerado uno de los aspectos olvidados por Bajtín. El género sexual (gender), otro de sus olvidos, es la piedra angular de esta investigación. Uno de los argumentos que la autora defiende es que los híbridos artísticos de Gilman y Le Sueur simbolizan el rechazo de ambas a que se las confine dentro de un solo género literario o sexual. En la segunda parte se estudia cómo la saga deconstructivista de Gilman y como el bildungsroman feminista de Le Sueur sirven para corregir y expandir la teoría bajtiniana. Entre otros aspectos, los personajes femeninos estudiados encarnan al sujeto parlante femenino. La tercera parte evalúa las comunidades de mujeres creadas por la ficción de Le Sueur y Gilman y su legado para las teorías feministas y bajtinianas. El trabajo (in)concluye proponiendo un avance de la dialogía feminista a una ...

The closer we get, the deeper I fall. The louder he vows to protect me. The more we come undone. Even my questions have questions. What if I'm not the only one who needs saving?
