 Holt McDougal, Ron Larson, Laurie Boswell, "Algebra 2, Grades 9-12" English | 2011 | ISBN: 0547315260 | PDF | pages: 1202 | 201.4 mb [center]  Marie Hendry, "Agency, Loneliness, and the Female Protagonist in the Victorian Novel" English | 2019 | ISBN: 1527527794 | PDF | pages: 118 | 4.0 mb Many female Victorian-era heroines find themselves expressing a form of loneliness directly connected to their lack of agency. Loneliness is defined by a lack, and it is this that is prevalent to these characters discussion of the social structures that define their lives. As there is no way to easily discuss a lack of agency without stating that there is something missing from the root agency, loneliness is an expression of missing components. This work analyses this lack found in loneliness as a trope to discuss a social lack. Many novels are crucial to this discussion, and this book focuses on Charlotte Brontës Villette (1853), Anne Brontës Tenant of Wildfell Hall (1848), George Eliots The Mill on the Floss (1860), Thomas Hardys Tess of the dUrbervilles (1892), Florence Marryats The Blood of the Vampire (1897) and Ella Hepworth Dixons The Story of a Modern Woman (1894) to trace the evolution of the double use of lack in the nineteenth-century novel.  Patrice Petro, "Aftershocks of the New: Feminism and Film History" English | 2002 | ISBN: 0813529956 | PDF | pages: 233 | 62.6 mb The beginning of this century has brought with it a host of assumptions about the newness of our technologies, globalized economies, and transnational media practices. Our own time is a period marked by experiences of fragmentation, sensation, and shock. The essays here are joined by a common concern to chart another side to modernity-precisely after the shock of the new-when the new ceases to be shocking, and when the extraordinary and the sensational become linked to the boring and the everyday. Patrice Petro explores how the mechanisms of modernism, German cinema, and feminist film theory have evolved, and she discusses the directions in which they are headed.  After the Rapture: An End Times Guide to Survival by Dr. David Jeremiah English | June 7, 2022 | ISBN: 0785292349 | 240 pages | EPUB | 1.11 Mb What if you or someone you loved missed out on the Rapture? What happens to those who are left behind? Trusted Bible teacher Dr. David Jeremiah shares the help and hope people will need as they face the End Times in this timely, easy-to-understand guidebook.  Ali Alamin Mazrui, Ricardo Rene Laremont, "Africanity Redefined" English | 2002 | ISBN: 0865439931, 086543994X | PDF | pages: 234 | 28.1 mb Africanity Redefined: Collected Essays of Ali A. Mazrui, Volume I is the first of three volumes of Ali A. Mazrui's most important essays. The eventual three-volume work will provide readers with a broad spectrum of Professor Mazrui's writings during his four decades as a scholar and public intellectual. This first volume redefines the meaning of Africanity across geographical spaces, time, and cultures. The resulting definition is dynamic. It forces us to reject neo-imperialist paradigms and ontologies of what it means to be African. By encouraging us to think about Africanity as an idea rather than as point of origin, the ideas contained in these essays force us to reposition ourselves in the debate of our place in global cultures and civilizations, and they prepare us to take a more active role in social and political affairs.  African Guerrillas By Christopher Clapham 1998 | 208 Pages | ISBN: 0253334667 | PDF | 11 MB Insurgencies or guerrilla movements have come to occupy a prominent place in the politics of modern Africa. This book analyzes the relationship between African insurgencies and the local societies in which they are set, the organizational principles upon which the insurgencies are based, and the relationship between the insurgencies and the wider world, both regionally and globally.  Koyal Verma, "African Clusters in India " English | ISBN: 1032196602 | 2023 | 174 pages | PDF | 3 MB African Clusters in India examines the discrimination and stereotypes faced by African migrants in India. It outlines the narratives of the migrants and demonstrates how their 'African identity' gets associated with drugs, prostitution, and cannibalism. The book brings to the fore how African migrants experience racial profiling based on a conflated African identity and how this identity gets generalized irrespective of the different nationalities and leads to social exclusion.  Fiona Cox, "Aeneas Takes the Metro: The Presence of Virgil in Twentieth-century French Literature" English | 1998 | ISBN: 1900755106 | EPUB | pages: 238 | 1.8 mb This study traces Virgil's journey through twentieth-century France by examining his profile in the works of Gide, Aragon, Valery, Pagnol, Klossowski, Butor, Simon and Pinget, and by looking at how their Virgilian appropriations complement and modify current readings of the "Aeneid" and other works. His presence in these works provides insights not only into modern French culture but into the Virgilian oeuvre itself. This process of mutual illumination is highlighted in Cox's argument by theories of intertextuality and dialogism. Although Virgil's presence in French literature is characterized by its focus on exile and uncertainty, Cox's study reaffirms the multivalency of this great European poet and his continuing relevance at the turn of the millennium.  Advances in Pyrometallurgy: Developing Low Carbon Pathways English | 2023 | ISBN: 303122633X | 303 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 97 MB Carbon intensive industries are at a crossroads. Long-term manufacturing plans using pyrometallurgical processes all include decarbonization levers: we must solve the problem of fossil-based reduction and fossil-based power generation processes for metals production. This collection explores innovative and diverse strategies for the enablement of low carbon industries in the high-temperature metals and materials processing fields. In particular, the following processes are investigated:  Advances in Powder and Ceramic Materials Science 2023 English | 2023 | ISBN: 3031226216 | 283 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 44 MB This collection emphasizes the advances of powder and ceramic/glass materials in the fundamental research, technology development, and industrial applications. Ceramic materials science covers the science and technology of creating objects from inorganic, non-metallic materials, and includes design, synthesis, and fabrication of ceramics, glasses, advanced concretes, and ceramic-metal composites. In recent years, the hybrids of ceramic and metallic materials have received plenty of interdisciplinary inspirations and achievements in material processes and functional applications including ionic conductors, catalysis, energy conversion and storage, superconductors, semiconductor, filtrations, etc. Topics cover, but are not limited to:· Silicates, oxides, and non-oxide ceramics and glasses |
