A Powerful Mind

A Powerful Mind

Adrienne M. Harrison

Potomac Books Inc
2015
sidottu
His formal schooling abruptly cut off at age eleven, George Washington saw his boyhood dream of joining the British army evaporate and recognized that even his aspiration to rise in colonial Virginian agricultural society would be difficult. Throughout his life he faced challenges for which he lacked the academic foundations shared by his more highly educated contemporaries. Yet Washington’s legacy is clearly not one of failure.Breaking new ground in Washington scholarship and American revolutionary history, Adrienne M. Harrison investigates the first president’s dedicated process of self-directed learning through reading, a facet of his character and leadership long neglected by historians and biographers. In A Powerful Mind, Harrison shows that Washington rose to meet these trials through a committed campaign of highly focused reading, educating himself on exactly what he needed to do and how best to do it. In contrast to other famous figures of the revolution-Thomas Jefferson, John Adams, Benjamin Franklin-Washington did not relish learning for its own sake, viewing self-education instead as a tool for shaping himself into the person he wanted to be. His two highest-profile and highest-risk endeavors-commander in chief of the Continental Army and president of the fledgling United States-are a testament to the success of his strategy.

From Sneakers To Stilettos: A 21 Day Motivational Guide on How I Transitioned From Domestic Violence

From Sneakers To Stilettos: A 21 Day Motivational Guide on How I Transitioned From Domestic Violence

Adriane M. Brown

Written by Adriane M. Brown, a prominent community activist, advisor and mentor to young girls and women, "From Sneakers To Stilettos," is a gripping self-help journal that chronicles her journey to recovery from domestic violence. It highlights practical ways young girls, women, and anybody for that matter can break free and bounce back from the physical and emotional trauma that usually accompanies toxic and unhealthy relationships. While drawing deeply from her personal experience in abusive relationships, the author sets out a 3-week, clear, effective, and simple plan that people can adhere to, and which will guide and help them in their attempt to heal and overcome this prevalent problem that have come to plague a lot of relationships. Also, there are positive affirmations that will help them achieve their goals and she addresses likely obstacles that they might encounter in their quests too. Adriane M. Brown asserts that relationships, whether mutual or intimate have an expiration date and you just have to let them go when the time comes, else they become toxic to you. Drawing inspiration from nature with specific references to the Chinese Bamboo tree and the caterpillar in a cocoon, she compares her life's struggle to the intriguing and intense struggle that both organisms experience in the early stages and before they come to life. Lastly, she likens her travails to the Himalayan Lily that stays in an unfriendly environment for several years before blooming into a beautiful flower. Just like the Himalayan Lily, she's still blooming, standing tall and beautiful to behold

Cicatrix Poetics, Trauma and Healing in the Literary Borderlands

Cicatrix Poetics, Trauma and Healing in the Literary Borderlands

Adrianna M. Santos

Springer International Publishing AG
2024
sidottu
This book explores how Chicana literature often represents gender violence while simultaneously presenting strategies of survival in response. Adrianna M. Santos aims to contribute to a broader conversation concerning the intersections between Chicana literature and decolonial trauma theory, one which questions the colonial matrix of power and the universality of Western knowledge. Santos argues that Chicana survival narratives arise out of colonial wounds and form scars that both mark and protect the violated body. Cicatrix Poetics, Trauma and Healing in the Literary Borderlands proposes a “cicatrix poetics” that makes bold gestures toward healing and narrative/storytelling as survival. The book contends that the cicatrix fashioned through artistic expression is a necessary component for Chicana communities—not just to survive, but to thrive. The books presents several case studies that examine transformative narrativity and by theorizing the texts as survival narratives, social protest works that bring attention to violence and erasure, the chapters explore how literature can be an effective catalyst for both social change and personal transformation, an orientation towards freedom, liberation through love.

The Bard in the Borderlands – An Anthology of Shakespeare Appropriations en La Frontera, Volume 1

The Bard in the Borderlands – An Anthology of Shakespeare Appropriations en La Frontera, Volume 1

Katherine Gillen; Adrianna M. Santos; Kathryn Vomero Santos

Arizona Center for Medieval Renaissance Studies,US
2023
sidottu
This volume features a wide range of plays that reimagine Shakespeare works from Borderlands perspectives. For several decades, Chicanx and Indigenous theatermakers have been repurposing Shakespeare’s plays to reflect the histories and lived realities of the US–Mexico Borderlands and to create space to tell stories of and for La Frontera. Celebrating this rich tradition, The Bard in the Borderlands: An Anthology of Shakespeare Appropriations en La Frontera brings a wide range of Borderlands Shakespeare plays together for the first time in a multi-volume open-access scholarly edition. This anthology celebrates the dynamic, multilingual reworking of canon and place that defines Borderlands Shakespeare, and it situates these geographically and temporally diverse plays within the robust study of Shakespeare’s global afterlives. The editors offer a critical framework for understanding the artistic and political traditions that shape these plays and the place of Shakespeare within the multilayered colonial histories of the region. Borderlands Shakespeare plays, they contend, do not simply reproduce Shakespeare in new contexts but rather use his work in innovative ways to negotiate colonial power and to envision socially just futures.
