Brown, Brown English | 2021 | ISBN: 1119640784 | 435 pages | True PDF | 52.42 MB ![]() Greg Forter, "Gender, Race, and Mourning in American Modernism" English | 2011 | pages: 223 | ISBN: 1107004721 | PDF | 8,7 mb American modernist writers' engagement with changing ideas of gender and race often took the form of a struggle against increasingly inflexible categories. Greg Forter interprets modernism as an effort to mourn a form of white manhood that fused the 'masculine' with the 'feminine'. He argues that modernists were engaged in a poignant yet deeply conflicted effort to hold on to socially 'feminine' and racially marked aspects of identity, qualities that the new social order encouraged them to disparage. Examining works by F. Scott Fitzgerald, Ernest Hemingway, William Faulkner and Willa Cather, Forter shows how these writers shared an ambivalence toward the feminine and an unease over existing racial categories that made it difficult for them to work through the loss of the masculinity they mourned. Gender, Race, and Mourning in American Modernism offers a bold new reading of canonical modernism in the United States. ![]() Functional Programming Ideas for the Curious Kotliner English | 2023 | ISBN: n/a | 186 Pages | PDF | 1.3 MB Kotlin lies in a really interesting intersection of programming styles, with functional programming becoming increasingly popular. Functional style is by no means new, so why not take advantage of the decades of ideas, concepts, and patterns from that community? In this book we explore those ideas with a higher impact on Kotlin code, including how to model data in immutable fashion, describing dependencies using contexts and effects, or treating actions as data. ![]() Marcia Pally, "From this Broken Hill I Sing To You: God, Sex, and Politics in the Work of Leonard Cohen" English | ISBN: 0567694763 | 2021 | 200 pages | EPUB | 494 KB Leonard Cohen's troubled relationship with God is here mapped onto his troubled relationships with sex and politics.

Kipnis 2016 | 280 Pages | ISBN: 0520289706 | PDF | 25 MB Between 1988 and 2013, the Chinese city of Zouping transformed from an impoverished town of 30,000 people to a bustling city of over 300,000, complete with factories, high rises, parks, shopping malls, and all the infrastructure of a wealthy East Asian city. FromVillage toCity paints a vivid portrait of the rapid changes in Zouping and its environs and in the lives of the once-rural people who live there. Despite the benefits of modernization and an improved standard of living for many of its residents, Zouping is far from a utopia; its inhabitants face new challenges and problems such as alienation, class formation and exclusion, and pollution. As he explores the city's transformation, Andrew B. Kipnis develops a new theory of urbanization in this compelling portrayal of an emerging metropolis and its people. ![]() From Terrain to Brain by Szymanski, Erika; English | 2023 | ISBN: 0197640311 | 265 pages | True PDF EPUB | 25.94 MB ![]() From Salt to Jam by Meynink, Katrina; English | 2023 | ISBN: 1743798903 | 224 pages | True EPUB | 215.65 MB ![]() French Short Stories for Beginners: Improve Your Reading and Listening Skills in French by Frederic Bibard English | 2022 | ISBN: N/A | ASIN: B0B7M8LZFF | 274 pages | EPUB | 1.18 Mb Develop your French listening skills, expand your French vocabulary, and improve your French pronunciation with French Short Stories for Beginners. |
