Frosty Ryan has always been the perfect political wife, mother and stepmother to U.S. Senator Mitchell Stewart and their four daughters. Now, Mitch has a clear past to the Vice-presidency. Everyone is jubilant with the exception of Frosty. She has a secret past, the kind that does not play well on the resume of a woman who could become the next Second Lady.
To protect her secrets, a woman refuses to acknowledge the child she left behind fifty years ago and a half a world away. Claire travels halfway across the globe from Southern California to Ireland to find the reasons Norah, her biological mother, gave her up. Norah is equally determined to avoid revisiting the painful time in her life and the devastating decision she was forced to make. Even with a loving husband and family, she still carries the shame of her mistakes. Claire’s presence fifty years later is the engine for the confrontations to come. Neighbors Norah had known forever recognized Claire’s resemblance to a sister she never knew she had. Norah must face the man who fathered her two daughters, and decide to either hold the secrets that embittered her or release them for the shame that will surely mark her.An emotional story that delves into the true meaning of family, sisterhood and secrets.

This is the first book-length study of the work of contemporary writer Bernard Kops. Born on November 28, 1926 to Dutch-Jewish immigrants, Bernard Kops became famous after the production of his play The Hamlet of Stepney Green: A Sad Comedy with Some Songs in 1958. This play, like much of his work, focuses on the conflicts between young and old. Identified as an “angry young man,” Kops, like his contemporaries John Osborne, Shelagh Delaney, and Harold Pinter, belonged to the so-called new wave of British drama that emerged in the mid-1950s. Kops went on to create important documentaries about the Blitz and living in London during the early 1940s. He has written two autobiographies, over ten novels, many journalistic pieces, and more than forty plays for TV, stage, and radio. A prolific poet, Kops has authored a long pamphlet poem and eight poetry collections. Now in his mid-80s, the prolific and versatile Kops still produces, his creativity undimmed by age.

In her chapter on paediatric patients, Jeanette Kennelly demonstrates how procedures can be adapted for working clinically with children. A comprehensive list of terminology commonly used in neurological rehabilitation is also included.Music Therapy Methods in Neurorehabilitation will prove an invaluable reference book for music therapy clinicians and students.

Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2012 im Fachbereich Geschichte - Sonstiges, Note: 1,0, Universitt Potsdam, Veranstaltung: Reiseliteratur, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: In der vorliegenden Seminararbeit werde ich mich dem Thema des Bedeutungswandels der Badereisen vom 16.-18. Jahrhundert widmen. Die Forschungsliteratur aus dem Bereich der Germanistik ist zu diesem Thema rar, jedoch gibt es zum Teil gut publizierte Kurorte wie Pyrmont und Wiesbaden. Einen Einstieg und gute berblicksdarstellung fr die Bedeutung der Badeorte des Sptmittelalters und dem Beginn der Frhen Neuzeit bietet der Aufsatz von Busch. Im weiteren Verlauf der Entwicklung findet sich um 1700 dann eine bedeutende Zsur die einen Bedeutungswandel der Badeorte einleitet und sich in der Dissertation von Burkhard Fuhs gut, wenngleich auch etwas knapp, nachvollziehen lsst. Er hat sich in seiner Dissertation mit den mondnen Kurorten in der Zeit von 1700-1900 befasst. Allgemein ist fr die Frhe Neuzeit und deren weiteren Verlauf zu konstatieren, dass es eine Vielzahl von unterschiedlichen Motiven fr das Reisen gegeben hat. Und so unterschiedlich diese Anlsse waren, so unterschiedlich waren auch die Menschen, die sich auf Reisen gemacht haben. Ich habe mich gefragt, woher die Tradition des Badens stammt, welcher Personenkreis sich solch private Badereisen leisten konnte und was man sich von diesen Reisen erhoffte. Des Weiteren soll geklrt werden, warum die mittelalterlichen Badeorte einen Niedergang zu verzeichnen hatten. Unter Punkt 2.2. soll darauf aufbauend die Betrachtung erfolgen, inwieweit sich die Kurorte, in Abgrenzung zu den Badeorten, auch zu Zentren urbanen Lebens entwickelt haben, da sich vor allem in der Frhen Neuzeit ein gravierender Bedeutungswandel vollzogen hat. Im letzten Abschnitt 2.2.1. soll der Ort Pyrmont als exemplarisches Beispiel fr diese Entwicklung von einfachen Badeorten zu Kurorten vorgestellt werden, wobei ich mich an den Reiseberichten und Briefen aus der Weimarer Ausgabe

Udsathed er et kernebegreb i socialt arbejde. Når man som fagperson bevæger sig ”ude i virkeligheden”, bliver det hurtigt klart, at udsathed er et sammensat fænomen. Det giver som regel ikke mening at tale om eksempelvis hjemløshed uden også at tale om misbrug af rusmidler, psykisk sårbarhed osv. Samtidig bliver det klart, at udsathed også afhænger af øjnene, der ser, og at forskere, praktikere og borgere har hver deres perspektiv. Perspektiver på udsathed giver borger-, praksis- og forskningsperspektiver på forståelsen af fem sociale problemer: hjemløshed, misbrug af rusmidler, psykisk sårbarhed, kriminalitet og prostitution. Problemerne belyses ud fra forskellige perspektiver med henblik på at besvare en række centrale spørgsmål: Hvordan beskrives og forstås det sociale problem? Hvilke indsatser peges der på og med hvilke begrundelser? Hvordan opleves indsatserne, og hvilken viden er der om, hvordan de virker? Hvilke forandringsperspektiver kan der peges på? Redigeret af Hanne Ramsbøl, koordinator i socialpsykiatrien i Skanderborg Kommune, og Steen Juul Hansen, VIA University College.

This is the first full-length study of Jeanette Winterson’s complete oeuvre, offering detailed analysis of her nine novels as well as addressing her non-fiction and minor fictional work. Susana Onega combines the study of formal issues such as narrative structure, perspective and point of view with thematic analyses approached from a variety of theoretical perspectives, from narratology and feminist theory to Hermetic and Kabalistic symbolism, to provide a comprehensive ‘vertical’ analysis of Winterson’s novels.Onega reveals the books as complex linguistic artefacts, crammed with intertextual echoes. She demonstrates the inseparability of form and meaning within Winterson’s work, and positions her within the wider context of contemporary British fiction alongside fellow visionaries such as Peter Ackroyd, Maureen Duffy and Marina Warner.

Since the publication of her first novel, Oranges Are Not the Only Fruit, Jeanette Winterson quickly established herself as a powerful and insightful writer on sexuality and gender. However, the profound and persistent religious themes of her work have received much less critical attention. Jeanette Winterson and Religion is the first in-depth study of the ways in which Winterson navigates the sacred and the profane in the full range of her writing, from her first novel to later works such as The PowerBook and The Stone Gods. This book reads the author's work alongside the theological turn in the thought of such theorists as Alain Badiou, John D. Caputo and Julia Kristeva as well as feminist and queer theologians such as Catherine Keller and Marcella Althaus-Reid. In this way, Jeanette Winterson and Religion reveals how Jeanette Winterson stakes out a unique and intriguing post-secular literary form of the sacred.

Putting forward a new theory of fetishism - alternative fetishism - this book provides an up-to-date examination of the work of Jeanette Winterson, offering fresh perspectives and new insights on the topics of gender, sexuality, and identity in her writing. Combining contemporary theories in psychoanalytical and cultural studies, it proposes that a rethinking of fetishism allows Winterson’s works to be brought into sharper critical focus by repositioning fetishism as a daily practice in society. In so doing, it argues that Winterson's work challenges orthodox, normative, and contemporary views of fetishism to reveal her own alternative version. Containing the transcript of an email Q&A with Winterson herself and covering the majority of Winterson’s oeuvre, from her first novel, Oranges Are Not the Only Fruit (1985), up to the most recent, Frankissstein (2019), the book is divided into three main chapters that each discuss a particular theme in Winterson’s fiction: bodily fetishism, food fetishism, and sexual fetishism. While the book's focus is on Winterson, the theoretical framework it proposes can be applied to other authors and disciplines in the Arts and Humanities, such as theatre and film, offering new ways of thinking about topics such as fetishism, feminism, psychoanalytical theory, postmodernism, gender, and sexuality.
