Free Download Phocion: Good Citizen in a Divided Democracy by Thomas R. Martin English | 2024 | ISBN: 0300256639 | 235 Pages | True ePUB | 4.56 MB  Free Download Phillis Wheatley and the Romantics By John C. Shields 2010 | 153 Pages | ISBN: 1572337052 | PDF | 1 MB aOC This book very conclusively debunks the over two-hundred-year-old conventional wisdom that Wheatley owes her poetic sensibilities to Alexander Pope. . . . It will help rejuvenate the study of Wheatley and will be an exciting contribution to scholarly discourse on WheatleyOCOs poetry.OCO OCoCedrick May, author of Evangelism and Resistance in the Black Atlantic, 1760OCo1835 Phillis Wheatley was the first African American to publish a book. Born in Gambia in 1753, she came to America aboard a slave ship, the Phillis. From an early age, Wheatley exhibited a profound gift for verse, publishing her first poem in 1767. Her tribute to a famed pastor, OC On the Death of the Rev. Mr. George Whitefield, OCO followed in 1770, catapulting her into the international spotlight, and publication of her 1773 Poems on Various Subjects Religious and Moral in London created her an international star. Despite the attention she received at the time, history has not been kind to Wheatley. Her work has long been neglected or denigrated by literary critics and historians. John C. Shields, a scholar of early American literature, has tried to help change this perception, and Wheatley has begun to take her place among the elite of American writers. In Phillis Wheatley and the Romantic Age, Shields contends that Wheatley was not only a brilliant writer but one whose work made a significant impression on renowned Europeans of the Romantic age, such as Samuel Taylor Coleridge, who borrowed liberally from her works, particularly in his famous distinction between fancy and imagination. Shields shows how certain Wheatley texts, particularly her OC Long Poem, OCO consisting of OC On Recollection, OCO OC Thoughts on the Works of Providence, OCO and OC On Imagination, OCO helped shape the face of Romanticism in the late eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. Phillis Wheatley and the Romantic Age helps demolish the long-held notion that literary culture flowed in only one direction: from Europe to the Americas. Thanks to WheatleyOCOs influence, Shields argues, the New World was influencing European literary masters far sooner than has been generally understood. John C. Shields is the editor of The Collected Works of Phillis Wheatley and the author of The American Aeneas: Classical Origins of the American Self (named by Choice as an Outstanding Academic Book and awarded honorable mention in competition for the American Comparative Literature AssociationOCOs HARRY LEVIN PRIZE) and of Phillis WheatleyOCOs Poetics of Liberation. He is Distinguished Professor of English and director of the Center for Classicism in American Culture at Illinois State University."  Free Download Timothy S. Miller, "Peter S.

Free Download Peak Performance for Deans and Chairs : Reframing Higher Education's Middle By Susan Stavert Roper; Terrence E. Deal 2010 | 113 Pages | ISBN: 160709536X | EPUB | 1 MB Deans and chairs, like other leaders everywhere, often rely on narrow views of their organizations that capture only part of the real picture. As a result, they miss out on a rich array of options available to them. Peak Performance for Deans and Chairs molds deans and chairs into better leaders by teaching them a new way of thinking about their universities, colleges, and departments. Reframing is the ability to examine a situation through multiple lenses, which not only enhances understanding of challenges leaders face but also suggests strategies for moving forward. Entertaining and realistic scenarios show deans and chairs grappling with common problems as they attempt to implement change, manage the faculty, deal with budget cuts, and win over the _higher-ups._ Some leaders are successful; others fail. This book analyzes the behavior of chairs and deans through the political, structural, human resources, and symbolic frames. Lessons learned from the negative as well as the positive scenarios are highlighted, enabling deans and chairs to easily adapt them to their own situations.  Free Download Pax Americana: Unending War on Iraq (Frontiers of Globalization) by Jacqueline S. Ismael, Tareq Y. Ismael, Leslie T. MacDonald English | July 11, 2024 | ISBN: 3031612728 | 256 pages | MOBI | 0.79 Mb This book surveys the testimony of international organizations of the impact of American foreign policy on Iraq.

A parallel lack of context characterizes most of the political commentary, overlooking the recurring pattern of victimization of Iraqis, regardless of which political party controls the White House. This book takes a broader perspective, to reveal the enduring pattern linking specific events.
