White Folks

White Folks

Timothy J. Lensmire

TAYLOR FRANCIS LTD
2024
nidottu
White Folks explores the experiences and stories of eight white people from a small farming community in northern Wisconsin. Drawing on in-depth interviews with Delores, Frank, William, Erin, Robert, Libby, and Stan, as well as on his own experiences growing up in this same rural community, Lensmire creates a portrait of white people that highlights the profound ambivalence that has characterized white thinking and feeling in relation to people of color for at least the last two hundred years. White people’s relations to people of color and their cultures are characterized not just by fear, rejection, and violence, but also by attraction, envy, and desire. There is nothing smooth about the souls of white folks.This second edition of White Folks features a new foreword—by renowned critical whiteness studies scholar David Roediger—that places the book in historical and political context. It also includes an expanded discussion by Lensmire on doing research on race with white people.

Blade

Blade

Timothy J Turner

Christian Faith
2021
pokkari
Angels, like humans, have "free will," and at times, they even disagree with what the Almighty has tasked them to complete, but only a few have ever defied Him: Lucifer, Lilith, and now the angel Blade. She had been in his celestial service for over two thousand years, and now she wants to experience all that is human. What Blade doesn't realize is that to be truly human, she must experience pain, heartache, and betrayal in order to find happiness, pleasure, and love. She is subjected to human frailties, moral weaknesses, temptations, and arrogance. God sends her help in order to guide her along her chosen path, but only she can decide to listen. Because of Blade's bold defiance, she sets in motion a chain of events that could very well destroy this fallen world.

Music in Roman Comedy

Music in Roman Comedy

Timothy J. Moore

Cambridge University Press
2012
sidottu
The plays of Plautus and Terence were profoundly musical: large portions of all the plays were sung to accompaniment, and variations in melody, rhythm and dance were essential elements in bringing both pleasure and meaning to their performance. This book explains the nature of Roman comedy's music: the accompanying tibia, the style of vocal performance, the importance of dance, characteristics of melody, the relationship between meter and rhythm, and the effects of different meters and of variations within individual verses. It provides musical analyses of songs, scenes and whole plays, and draws analogies between Roman comedy's music and the music of modern opera, film and musical theatre. The book will change our understanding of the nature of Roman comedy and will be of interest to students of ancient theatre and Latin literature, scholars and students working on the history of music and theatre, and performers working with ancient plays.

The Matter of History

The Matter of History

Timothy J. LeCain

Cambridge University Press
2017
sidottu
New insights into the microbiome, epigenetics, and cognition are radically challenging our very idea of what it means to be 'human', while an explosion of neo-materialist thinking in the humanities has fostered a renewed appreciation of the formative powers of a dynamic material environment. The Matter of History brings these scientific and humanistic ideas together to develop a bold, new post-anthropocentric understanding of the past, one that reveals how powerful organisms and things help to create humans in all their dimensions, biological, social, and cultural. Timothy J. LeCain combines cutting-edge theory and detailed empirical analysis to explain the extraordinary late-nineteenth century convergence between the United States and Japan at the pivotal moment when both were emerging as global superpowers. Illustrating the power of a deeply material social and cultural history, The Matter of History argues that three powerful things - cattle, silkworms, and copper - helped to drive these previously diverse nations towards a global 'Great Convergence'.
