Feeding the Spirit – Food, Culture and Community

Feeding the Spirit – Food, Culture and Community

Elizabeth E. Merritt

American Association of Museums
2016
nidottu
From Michelle Obama's antiobesity campaign to the health section of the New York Times, the United States is reexamining its relationship to food on a public and national level. Tied into concerns over the American diet are issues of sustainability, specifically concerns about the way that we grow, distribute, and eat food. But as communities increasingly self-sort by politics, race, and culture, eating still remains an important way for humans to come together and explore commonalities. In Feeding the Spirit, Elizabeth E. Merritt reveals how modes of eating in America are tied into cultural and communal identities. Presenting case studies of institutions from botanic gardens to art museums, Feeding the Spirit makes the case that these cultural organizations have an important role to play in increased food literacy, enabling visitors to learn more about making values-based decisions about their own diets. This publication is an initiative of the American Alliance of Museums' Center for the Future of Museums, which helps institutions track and respond to the trends that shape our communities.

Elizabeth E Il Suo Giardino Tedesco

Elizabeth E Il Suo Giardino Tedesco

Elizabeth Von Arnim

Independently Published
2017
nidottu
Pubblicato originariamente nel 1898, "Elizabeth and her German Garden" fu il primo libro di Marie Annette Beauchamp - conosciuta per tutta la vita come Elizabeth. Il libro fu pubblicato in forma anonima. Elizabeth era una cugina della scrittrice pi famosa Katherine Mansfield (il cui vero nome era Kathleen Mansfield Beauchamp). Nata in Australia, Elizabeth fu educata in Inghilterra, e spos poi un conte tedesco, von Arnim. Nel 1897 gli Arnim si trasferirono nell'antica residenza familiare di Nassenheide (oggi Rzedsiny, Polonia). Il libro, ispirato dall'amore per il giardino di quella antica casa, fu pubblicato l'anno successivo ed ebbe un successo clamoroso (ben 21 edizioni nel 1899), tanto che da allora l'autrice firm le maggior parte delle opere successive con l'espressione by the author of "Elizabeth and her German garden". Tornata in Inghilterra dopo la morte del marito, Elizabeth divenne amica di intellettuali di spicco come Wells, e Bertrand Russell (di cui spos il fratello). La sua scrittura leggera, ironica, critica delle convenzioni sociali, e l'autrice stata rivalutata recentemente come scrittrice "femminista ante-litteram", per le sue critiche alle convinzioni e convenzioni di genere. Traduzione di Silvia Cecchini dall' edizione integrale del 1900 (le edizioni successive alla prima furono poi private della parte dei ricordi d'infanzia della protagonista).

Overcoming Alcohol Use Problems: Workbook

Overcoming Alcohol Use Problems: Workbook

Elizabeth E. Epstein; Barbara S. McCrady

Oxford University Press Inc
2009
nidottu
It is well-known that alcohol abuse can have a devastating effect on a person's entire life, from work to social life to family relationships. However, men and women experience substance abuse problems in different ways. Most of the literature currently on the market does not make this distinction, and treats men's and women's problems as identical. This treatment program acknowledges the differences between the two, and presents gender-specific options for each step of the treatment. Publication of this manual represents an important new step in understanding and treating alcohol abuse. Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy (CBT) has been proven to be an extremely effective method of treatment for alcohol abuse. This treatment program uses new research by the authors that include a female-specific study as well as generalised treatment for individuals. Gender-specific topics addressed include assertiveness training, coping with other drinkers in one's social network, recognising anxiety or depression as triggers for alcohol abuse, and anger management. Designed to be used in conjunction with this therapy program, this Workbook contains monitoring forms and homework that will reinforce the skills learned in therapy.

The Communion of Women

The Communion of Women

Elizabeth E. Prevost

Oxford University Press
2010
sidottu
In the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, a number of British women left home to follow a call to the African mission field. Women's involvement in Protestant foreign missions during this time grew out of organized efforts to professionalize women's social services, to promote white women's distinct ability to emancipate 'heathen' women, and to consolidate the religious framework of the British Empire. Motivated women could therefore pursue their vocation in a skilled, independent capacity, confident in the transformative power of the gospel and its institutional counterparts: the Christian home, school, and clinic. Yet women's missions did not transplant British paradigms easily onto African soil. Instead, missionary women encountered competing forms of culture and knowledge that caused them to approach evangelism as a series of negotiations and to rethink preconceived notions of race, gender, and religion. The outcome was a feminized, collaborative framework of Christianity which fostered new opportunities for solidarity and authority among British and African women. So powerful were these individual encounters that they decentred collective representations of empire, patriarchy, progress, and 'civilization.' Missionaries accordingly focused their attentions not only on the overseas mission field, but on the British state and church as sites of regeneration, emancipation, and reform, attempting to build a corporate body around women's Christian authority that would ameliorate the trauma of imperialism and war. Elizabeth Prevost looks at missionaries as the products as well as the agents of the globalization of Christianity, during a time of rapid change at the local, regional, and international level. Anglican women in Madagascar, Uganda, and the British metropole form the basis for this story. Using a rich and largely untapped base of archival and published sources, and encompassing a wide scope of geographical, social, political, and theological contexts, Prevost brings together the fine grain and the broad strokes of the global interconnections of Christianity and feminism.

The Reformation of Machismo

The Reformation of Machismo

Elizabeth E. Brusco

University of Texas Press
1995
pokkari
Protestant evangelicalism has spread rapidly in Latin America at the same time that foreign corporations have taken hold of economies there. These concurrent developments have led some observers to view this religious movement as a means of melding converts into a disciplined work force for foreign capitalists rather than as a reflection of conscious individual choices made for a variety of personal, as well as economic, reasons.In this pioneering study, Elizabeth Brusco challenges such assumptions and explores the intra-household motivations for evangelical conversion in Colombia. She shows how the asceticism required of evangelicals (no drinking, smoking, or extramarital sexual relations are allowed) redirects male income back into the household, thereby raising the living standard of women and children. This benefit helps explain the appeal of evangelicalism for women and questions the traditional assumption that organized religion always disadvantages women.Brusco also demonstrates how evangelicalism appeals to men by offering an alternative to the more dysfunctional aspects of machismo. Case studies add a fascinating human dimension to her findings.With the challenges this book poses to conventional wisdom about economic, gender, and religious behavior, it will be important reading for a wide audience in anthropology, women’s studies, economics, and religion. For all students of Latin America, it offers thoughtful new perspectives on a major, grass-roots agent of social change.

Kids Caught in the Psychiatric Maelstrom

Kids Caught in the Psychiatric Maelstrom

Elizabeth E. Root MSW Ed; Robert Whitaker

Praeger Publishers Inc
2009
sidottu
This book offers a warning that American children are receiving increased chemical treatment from psychiatrists and provides a primer on how to improve the emotional health of kids without drugs. "Maelstrom" is an apt metaphor for the inexorable deterioration many children experience inside the mental health system. Kids Caught in the Psychiatric Maelstrom: How Pathological Labels and "Therapeutic" Drugs Hurt Children and Families challenges current treatment practices and addresses the critically important issue of excessive prescribing of psychiatric medications to children. This encyclopedic work reveals "inside the system" information, emphasizing the theoretical divide at the root of the controversy over diagnosis and treatment. It explains how the 1990s, "decade of the brain" replaced talk therapy with biochemical treatments, leading to the hegemony of the pharmaceutical industry—and subsequently the massive drugging of children. Author Elizabeth E. Root details common diagnoses and treatments, explaining up-to-date brain research, with some surprising interpretations, and noting dangerous national precedents to mental screening. Finally, she illuminates pathways toward solutions and healthier families, sharing nonpsychiatric explanations for the nation's increase of troubled children and the rationale and research supporting non-drug, alternative approaches to childhood distress.
