The American Exceptionalism Of Jay Lovestone And His Comrade

The American Exceptionalism Of Jay Lovestone And His Comrade

Haymarket Books
2018
nidottu
The first 'American Exceptionalists' belonged to a left-wing current led by Jay Lovestone. Briefly in control of, then dramatically expelled from, the US Communist Party, they maintained an independent existence on the US Left from 1929 to 1940. Lovestone himself collaborated with the CIA to help shape the Cold War foreign policy of the AFL-CIO. Yet earlier documents and articles from the Lovestone group provide rich information and remarkable insights on twentieth-century realities and radicalism.

Conversations with Jay Parini

Conversations with Jay Parini

University Press of Mississippi
2014
sidottu
Jay Parini (b. 1948) is best known for his novel about Leo Tolstoy's last year, The Last Station, which has been translated into more than twenty-five languages and made into a Hollywood film. But he has also published numerous volumes of poetry; biographies of William Faulkner, Robert Frost, and John Steinbeck; novels; and literary and cultural criticism. This book contains the most important interviews with the former Guggenheim fellow; a former Fowler Hamilton Fellow at Christ Church, Oxford; and a former fellow of the Institute for Advanced Studies at the University of London.Parini's work is valuable not just because of its high quality and intellectual range. Parini's life and writings often seem like a seminar table, with friends gathered, talking and trading stories. He has openly written poems in conversation with writers he knew personally: Robert Penn Warren, Gore Vidal, Jorge Luis Borges, and others. He has, in his own life, kept an ongoing conversation with many literary friends over the years--Alastair Reid, Seamus Heaney, Anne Stevenson, Ann Beattie, Julia Alvarez, Peter Ackroyd, A. N. Wilson, and countless others. These interviews offer a more comprehensive understanding of Parini's work as a poet, scholar, public intellectual, literary critic, intellectual historian, biographer, novelist, and biographical novelist. More importantly, these interviews will contribute to our understanding of the history of ideas, the condition of knowledge, and the state of literature, all of which Parini has played an important role in shaping.

Books for Young and Early School-Aged BoysThis is the second in a new series of children's books, The Adventures of Jay and Gizmo. Although they will be of interest to all children, these books are aimed specifically at young and early school-aged indigenous boys. They are written based on the educational research into the factors that have been shown to play a role in increasing the probability that boys will develop an interest in reading at an early age.Educational research has shown that the number one predictor that children will experience long-term success in school is the level of reading readiness that they already have when they begin school. The research also shows that young boys that have been provided with books that have specific characteristics are likely to have a higher level of reading readiness when they begin school. These characteristics are: Books that have a male as the central character; Books that the boys actually own, even if they cannot yet read them by themselves; Books that contain action, adventure and/or problem-solving by boys; Books that portray the central character modeling behaviours such as reading, problem-solving, and searching for and applying knowledge; Books in which the vocabulary allows them to be read to boys by their parents in their early years, and by the boys themselves once they begin to read for themselves.

Jay is a young boy learning day-by-day the important attributes that will make him a happy, healthy adult. Focusing on one trait per chapter, Life with Jay is a character guide that teaches young boys and girls the traits necessary to be good people. Author Jason R. Moffitt focuses on the following topics: respect, caring, sportsmanship, responsibility, perseverance, honesty, friends, courage, self-control, citizenship, and bullying. Each chapter includes a definition; scenarios at school, with friends, at home, and in the community; a quiz; and a glossary of useful terms. Additionally, there is a success guide component that allows students to work with their parents on developing a plan of action for success. For example, in the respect chapter, Jay learns not to disrespect a substitute teacher at school. He respects another student's belongings by treating them with care. He respects his parents' rules at home, and in the community, he respectfully offers his seat to an elderly woman. Showcasing examples, Jay's story will both entertain and educate children in the ways of doing right so they can become kind, successful grown-ups.
