A cop, a pig, & a sorcerer know all that glitters is gold.A sorcerer's hidden stash of gold... A pot-bellied pig and a Jersey cow with a nose for trouble...A no holds barred treasure hunt... A retired RCMP Sergeant and her partner, a drug sniffing German shepherd afraid of crowds, determined to preserve law and order on an island where no one takes any guff including the blind old lady who just got flashed and the young mother bothered by a ghost in the attic.That one choice, made by a pot-bellied pig in the heat of the day, the decision to choose Milk Bones over beer, triggered a series of calamitous events that would haunt Seal Island for decades to come.Gold fever strikes Seal Island when Gertrude, a pot-bellied pig, and her cohort, a Jersey cow named Peaches, set the sleepy island a blaze when they stumble upon a gold coin rumoured to be part of a rogue prophet's long lost loot. Only Gertrude, Peaches, and the deceased psychic, know where the treasure is buried and none of them are talking.It's no holds barred as treasure hunters galore descend upon the quiet little West Coast Island. They will do anything to find the gold. There is nothing that retired RCMP Sgt Betty Bruce can do about it until Betty and Gertrude get caught in the middle of it.In 1928, cult leader and self-proclaimed prophet, Brother Twelve, and his companion, Madame Z, escaped with hundreds, if not thousands, of double eagle twenty dollar US gold coins, a fortune amassed by swindling the Brother's followers out of their hard earned savings. They buried cases of glass jars filled with these coins on DeCourcy and Valdez Islands, continuously moving them from one island to another, until the jig was up and the law was hot on their heels. They scuttled their sail boat and escaped in a tugboat, fleeing north up the British Columbia coast. They were never brought to trial. No one knows where all the gold was buried...until now.Gertrude & the Sorcerer's Gold is a standalone novel; however, the characters are a continuation from the first three novels in a trilogy: Gumboots, Gumshoes & Murder, The Dastardly Mr Deeds, and Murder Most Fowl. (Please note: the first three novels must be read in order) Stay tuned for a Chasing Christmas which will be released in the Fall of 2020.

Pædagogisk antropologi kombinerer, som navnet siger, de to videnskabelige discipliner pædagogik og antropologi. Antropologi beskæftiger sig med de sociale og kulturelle sammenhænge, der former og formes af specifikke menneskers liv forskellige steder i verden. Det samme gør den pædagogiske antropologi, men her er interessen især rettet mod pædagogiske forhold i bred forstand, dvs. de forventninger og anvisninger, som påvirker og rammesætter folks handlinger og betydningsdannelse. Pædagogisk antropologi - tilgange og begreber giver en indføring i den store variation af tilgange, perspektiver og genstandsfelter, som karakteriserer pædagogisk antropologi som forsknings- og fagområde i dag. Bogens forfattere trækker på en lang række teoretiske inspirationer og traditioner, og de vægter forskellige tematikker og begreber i deres analyser. Det er imidlertid kendetegnende for dem alle, at de er optaget af at belyse menneskers handlinger, opfattelser og relationer i pædagogiske sammenhænge. Bogen afrundes med et perspektiverende efterord af Steen Nepper Larsen. Bogen giver en indføring i de mange aspekter af pædagogisk antropologi, som spiller en stadig større rolle i undersøgelser og studier af pædagogik. Den henvender sig til studerende på universitetsniveau og på de pædagogiske professionsuddannelser. Pædagogisk antropologi – tilgange og begreber er redigeret af Eva Gulløv, Ida Wentzel Winther og Gritt B. Nielsen, der alle forsker og underviser på DPU, Aarhus Universitet.
In the doorway of an elegant New York apartment, blood seeps over silk negligee, over polished wood floors and plush carpet: a beautiful young woman lies dead, her face disfigured by a single gun shot. But who was Laura?
In a captivating departure, Larry Watson, "a writer whose work is worthy of prizes" ("Los Angeles Times Book Review"), unveils a portrait of faith, obsession, and enduring love -- and a work of greater tenderness than anything he has yet written. "Laura" Love captures Paul Finley, in, of all places, his own bedroom -- literally waking him from his dreams. The night he discovers Laura Pettit standing at his windowsill, Paul is eleven years old, a boy naturally inclined toward seriousness, precociously adept at the art of watching the world without being watched. Laura is twenty-two, a fiercely passionate and independent poet already experiencing the first flickers of fame, a beautiful woman on the brink of seducing Paul's father. No matter; Paul is smitten. When she leaves him to rejoin the grown-ups' party downstairs, Laura issues Paul a wholly impossible command, one that will haunt and consume both of them for the rest of their lives: "Forget me." Laying bare the inner life of one man during the course of nearly four decades, Larry Watson delivers a riveting treatise on the excruciating power of love -- and two of the most remarkable characters in recent American literature. Infused with breathtaking pathos and delicate grace, "Laura" is an extraordinary triumph of the novelist's art.
How do men imagine women? In the poetry of Petrarch and his English successors-Wyatt, Donne, and Marvell-the male poet persistently imagines pursuing a woman, Laura, whom he pursues even as she continues to deny his affections. Critics have long held that, in objectifying Laura, these male-authored texts deny the imaginative, intellectual, and physical life of the woman they idealize. In Laura, Barbara L. Estrin counters this traditional view by focusing not on the generative powers of the male poet, but on the subjectivity of the imagined woman and the imaginative space of the poems she occupies. Through close readings of the Rime sparse and the works of Wyatt, Donne, and Marvell, Estrin uncovers three Lauras: Laura-Daphne, who denies sexuality; Laura-Eve, who returns the poet’s love; and Laura-Mercury, who reinvents her own life. Estrin claims that in these three guises Laura subverts both genre and gender, thereby introducing multiple desires into the many layers of the poems. Drawing upon genre and gender theories advanced by Jean-FranÇois Lyotard and Judith Butler to situate female desire in the poem’s framework, Estrin shows how genre and gender in the Petrarchan tradition work together to undermine the stability of these very concepts.Estrin’s Laura constitutes a fundamental reconceptualization of the Petrarchan tradition and contributes greatly to the postmodern reassessment of the Renaissance period. In its descriptions of how early modern poets formulate questions about sexuality, society and poetry, Laura will appeal to scholars of the English and Italian Renaissance, of gender studies, and of literary criticism and theory generally.
