But at its best, Gothick Institutions is neither poetry nor prose while obviously both-because buried in these pages we find wrinkled love letters from our spiritual ancestors reincarnated as the crinkly cartography of our future utopia." -Anu Bonobo, Fifth Estate, Winter 2006 from the book: Remote Viewing Imagine an alternate dimension where dervishes are roaming around America sects of Swedenborgian hobos etc. You're there camping in the graveyard long black hair in tangles, ghostwhite face.  Gothic Fiction and the Writing of Trauma, 1914-1934: The Ghosts of World War One by Andrew Smith 2022 | ISBN: 1474443435 | English | 232 pages | PDF | 8 MB This book examines how the representation of the ghost-soldier in literature published between1914-1934, both marks the presence of trauma and attempts to make sense of it. Andrew Smith examines short stories, novels, poems and memoirs that employ ghosts to reflect upon feelings of loss, paralleling the literary context with accounts of shell-shock which construe the damaged soldier as psychologically missing and therefore spectre-like.  Jan MacKell Collins, "Good Time Girls of Arizona and New Mexico: A Red-Light History of the American Southwest" English | ISBN: 1493038117 | 2019 | 208 pages | EPUB | 2 MB As settlements and civilization moved West to follow the lure of mineral wealth and the trade of the Santa Fe Trail, prostitution grew and flourished within the mining camps, small towns, and cities of the nineteenth-century Southwest. Whether escaping a bad home life, lured by false advertising, or seeking to subsidize their income, thousands of women chose or were forced to enter an industry where they faced segregation and persecution, fines and jailing, and battled the other hazards of their profession. Some dreamed of escape through marriage or retirement, and some became infamous and even successful, but more often found relief only in death. An integral part of western history, the stories of these women continue to fascinate readers and captivate the minds of historians today.

Allen Gregory Sens, "Global politics: Origins, currents, directions" English | 2002 | pages: 452 | ISBN: 0176169105 | PDF | 27,6 mb  Global Trends Compendium: An Essential Guide to Socio-Economic and Environmental Change English | 2023 | ISBN: 9811991626 | 288 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 10 MB This Compendium was conceived as a "pocket compass", a practical guide that may help readers to orientate themselves while they explore global affairs and attempt to make sense of the highly interconnected, multidimensional challenges of contemporary human development. The book is intended to be an accessible, concise, yet comprehensive reference for anyone who hopes to better understand today's world and its dramatic complexity. The aim is to highlight a relevant selection of the demographic, socio-economic, geo-political, and environmental macro-dynamics that define our time, and to explore in a practical way the indicators that can be used to monitor their evolution over time. In general, this project stems from the need to apply "systemic thinking" to the study of the world and to develop a holistic perspective that can bridge the gap that for too long has existed across academic disciplines and their respective focuses. The macro-trends featured in the book shed light, in particular, on the change that has been occurring over time in the vast Global South - a portion of the globe that accounts for over 80% of the world's total population. The book's ultimate - although not exclusive - target audience is undoubtedly composed of undergraduate students of subjects such as political science, international affairs, international development, human geography and the like. In addition, the Compendium may benefit professionals in both public and private organisations as well as members of the general public seeking to acquire "global development literacy" in manners that are academically sound, but also accessible and concise. |
