Becoming Nisei

Becoming Nisei

Lisa M. Hoffman; Mary L. Hanneman

University of Washington Press
2020
pokkari
A vital account of everyday Nisei life and identity formation in an early twentieth-century communityTacoma's vibrant Nihonmachi of the 1920s and '30s was home to a significant number of first generation Japanese immigrants and their second generation American children, and these families formed tight-knit bonds despite their diverse religious, prefectural, and economic backgrounds. As the city's Nisei grew up attending the secular Japanese Language School, they absorbed the Meiji-era cultural practices and ethics of the previous generation. At the same time, they positioned themselves in new and dynamic ways, including resisting their parents and pursuing lives that diverged from traditional expectations. Becoming Nisei, based on more than forty interviews, shares stories of growing up in Japanese American Tacoma before the incarceration. Recording these early twentieth-century lives counteracts the structural forgetting and erasure of prewar histories in both Tacoma and many other urban settings after World War II. Lisa Hoffman and Mary Hanneman underscore both the agency of Nisei in these processes as well as their negotiations of prevailing social and power relations.

The Work of Print

The Work of Print

Lisa M. Maruca

University of Washington Press
2007
sidottu
The Work of Print traces a shift in the very definition of literature, from one that encompasses the material conditions of the production and distribution of books to the more familiar emphasis on the solitary author's ownership of an abstract text. Drawing on contemporary accounts of those involved in the trade - printers, booksellers, publishers, and distributors - Lisa Maruca examines attitudes about the creative process and approaches to the commodification of writing. The "work of print" describes the labors through which literature was produced: both the physical labor of making books and the underlying cultural work performed by a set of ideologies about who counted as a maker of texts.Printers' manuals, tracts on typography, legal documents, and booksellers' autobiographies reveal that print workers conceived of their roles as central to the production of literature. Maruca's insightful readings of these documents alongside traditional works of fiction and authors' correspondence show that the claims of print workers and booksellers were part of a struggle for ownership and control as the concept of author as proprietor of his or her intellectual property began to take hold in the mid-1700s, gradually eclipsing print workers' contributions to the process of textual creation.The print trade asserted its authority using a rhetoric of hierarchical and binary sexuality and gender, which affected women working in the industry and limited the type of work they were allowed to perform. In response, women developed strategies to redeploy conventional ideas of gender to gain concessions for themselves as publishers and distributors of printed material, strategies that formed a foundation for the rise of female authorship later in the eighteenth century.Encompassing the histories of literature, labor, technology, publishing, and gender, The Work of Print ultimately offers significant insights into the ideology of authorship and intellectual property and our understanding of textuality and print in the digital age.

A New York Times Book Review Editors' Choice A Kirkus Reviews Best Nonfiction Book of the Year Finalist for the 2024 Biographers International Plutarch Award Longlisted for the 2023 California Book Awards Shortlisted for the William Saroyan International Prize Longlisted for the 2023 Northern California Book AwardsIn the tradition of Katherine Boo and Tracy Kidder, The Hungry Season is a "lyrical" narrative with "real suspense" (New York Times): a nonfiction drama that "reads like the best of fiction" (Mark Arax), tracing one woman's journey from the mist-covered mountains of Laos to the sunbaked flatlands of Fresno, California as she struggles to overcome the wounds inflicted by war and family alike​. As combat rages across the highlands of Vietnam and Laos, a child is born. Ia Moua enters the world at the bottom of the social order, both because she is part of the Hmong minority and because she is a daughter, not a son. When, at thirteen, she is promised in marriage to a man three times her age, it appears that Ia's future has been decided for her. But after brutal communist rule upends her life, this intrepid girl resolves to chart her own defiant path. With ceaseless ambition and an indestructible spirit, Ia builds a new existence for herself and, before long, for her children, first in the refugee camps of Thailand and then in the industrial heartland of California's San Joaquin Valley. At the root of her success is a simple act: growing Hmong rice, just as her ancestors did, and selling it to those who hunger for the Laos of their memories. While the booming business brings her newfound power, it also forces her to face her own past. In order to endure the present, Ia must confront all that she left behind, and somehow find a place in her heart for those who chose to leave her. Meticulously reported over seven years and written with the intimacy of a novel, The Hungry Season is the story of one radiant woman's quest for survival--and for the nourishment that matters most.

Whispers of Silence Hearing the Truth in Our Quiet Moments

Whispers of Silence Hearing the Truth in Our Quiet Moments

Lisa M Washington

Lulu.com
2018
pokkari
How did this book come about? When I could no longer hear my truth and I was stuck in my past, my pain and my perspective, something had to be done. I decided as a wife, mom and business woman to take 8 -10 hours each Monday and just get silent for a year. I would pray, meditate and read books that inspired my soul in silence, no communication to world. It was one of the hardest things I have ever done. I am so grateful, my family, friends and clients honored this decision. In this book you will find, meditations, reflections, affirmations and life lessons, I learned and had to unlearn, to hear the voice of God and my truth again. This practice unblocked so much inside and changed my life in ways I could not imagine. Things that I had been praying about and desiring, start flooding into my life and I found me, again. It was not easy to face some hard things about myself, but it was worth it and it has changed the lives of those around me as well. Sometimes we have to unplugged to really connect.

Women in Early Medieval Europe, 400–1100

Women in Early Medieval Europe, 400–1100

Lisa M. Bitel

Cambridge University Press
2002
sidottu
This is a history of the early European middle ages through the eyes of women, combining the rich literature of women's history with original research in the context of mainstream history and traditional chronology. The book begins at the end of the Roman empire and ends with the start of the long eleventh century, when women and men set out to test the old frontiers of Europe. The book recreates the lives of ordinary women but also tells personal stories of individuals. Each chapter also questions an assumption of medieval historiography, and uses the few documents produced by women themselves, along with archaeological evidence, art, and the written records of medieval men, to tell of women, their experiences and ideas, and their relations with men. It covers the continent and its exotic edges, such as Iceland, Ireland, and Iberia; looking at women Christian and non-Christian alike.

Science as Psychology

Science as Psychology

Cambridge University Press
2013
pokkari
Science as Psychology reveals the complexity and richness of rationality by demonstrating how social relationships, emotion, culture, and identity are implicated in the problem-solving practices of laboratory scientists. In this study, the authors gather and analyze interview and observational data from innovation-focused laboratories in the engineering sciences to show how the complex practices of laboratory research scientists provide rich psychological insights, and how a better understanding of science practice facilitates understanding of human beings more generally. The study focuses not on dismantling the rational core of scientific practice, but on illustrating how social, personal, and cognitive processes are intricately woven together in scientific thinking. The book is thus a contribution to science studies, the psychology of science, and general psychology.
