Inclusion...It's Not Just an Educational Buzzword

Inclusion...It's Not Just an Educational Buzzword

Dianne McConnell Ph D

Tellwell Talent
2023
pokkari
For some time now, we have been using the word "inclusion" to talk about our relationship with diversity, and those views are reflected in our behaviours and decisions regarding how individuals with diverse needs are positioned within our communities. As a result, the word has become an educational buzzword, and over time we can see the evolution of its meaning. Dianne believes strongly that inclusion is not a buzzword, but rather an important CALL to ACTION. Inclusion: Not just an Educational Buzzword weaves Dianne's personal journey and stories along with her experience as an educator and influences from researchers to form this necessary and important call to action. If we truly want to live and work in a community that believes relationship and connection are priorities, then we must pay attention to the important lessons of being, knowing and doing within our homes, classrooms and communities. The being piece is the most difficult to understand, and Dianne shows us how to get to being. Reading this book will assist you in seeing the important personal and systemic transformational changes that are necessary to not only show up as our best selves, but to live and work as compassionate partners with our family, neighbours, colleagues and students. The time is now, and this call is for you.

Bazille

Bazille

Dianne Pitman

Pennsylvania State University Press
1998
sidottu
Studio companion of Monet and Renoir, protégé of Courbet, and friend of Manet, Frédéric Bazille (1841-1870) is more often remembered for the financial assistance he provided to future Impressionists than for his own vivid and often unsettling work. In this first complete book in English devoted to Bazille, Dianne Pitman seeks to situate this often overlooked artist within the complex and contradictory art world of the 1860s. In the process, she greatly refines our understanding of the modernist tradition.Pitman examines a series of major paintings and critical essays by Bazille and his contemporaries and frames them within the modernist discourse about purity, or respecting the proper limits of the medium. She stresses the problem of pose—the way in which painted subjects seem to respond to the artist's presence and the implied presence of the beholder—and explores his responses to the new medium of photography, the idea of painting without subject matter, the burden of tradition, and the problematic of self-portraiture. As these themes again come to the fore in much of the most controversial art and criticism of the late twentieth century, this study also represents an important contribution to the ongoing debate concerning the oppositions and continuities between modernism and postmodernism.

The Nature of Authority

The Nature of Authority

Dianne Harris

Pennsylvania State University Press
2003
sidottu
Italian villas are generally regarded as beautiful havens where a privileged elite, fleeing the harsh realities of the city, found peace and harmony amid buildings and gardens framed upon classical ideals of proportion, balance, and the natural. In her interdisciplinary book, Dianne Harris presents a radically different view of villa life as it developed during the eighteenth century on the vast estates dominating the fertile Lombard plain. Governed from Vienna by a Habsburg regime bent upon increased tax revenues, the great landowning families lived lives fraught with tensions and contradictions. Although they retained many privileges and indulged in shows of wealth and social distinction, they faced mounting demands for reform and progress from an absolutist state. The Nature of Authority employs what Harris calls "panoramic history" to trace the mingling of enlightened reform and a culture of display in the design and functioning of villas and villa life in eighteenth-century Lombardy. Cadastral maps are juxtaposed with Marc'Antonio Dal Re's famous prints of the "delights" of villa life; both are woven into an exceptionally wide-ranging investigation of the villas, their gardens, and crop-bearing fields and their representation in visual and written sources from agricultural treatises to books of etiquette. Combining this diverse material with a sharp focus upon the organization of space and class privilege, Harris shows how the villas served as centers of complex cultural and sociopolitical transactions, fashioning a landscape that was at once a beguiling vista and a tool in the enforcement of a strict hierarchy of use and value. Harris's innovative book reveals the complicity of landscape in the formation of culture and the structures of everyday life. It also elucidates the significance of Lombardy as a testing ground for Habsburg policies of enlightened reform in the social and natural orders.

Telling Tales

Telling Tales

Dianne A. Johnson

Praeger Publishers Inc
1990
sidottu
This work examines the development of African American literature for young people--in terms of recurrent thematic content and underlying philosophies--from 1920 to the present. Johnson provides a close reading of various texts including 1) The Brownies' Book magazine, edited by W.E.B. Du Bois and Jessie Fauset from January 1920 through December 1921; 2) fiction, non-fiction, and poetry written by Langston Hughes and Arna Bontemps in the 1930s and 1940s, and the historical fiction that their work prefigures; 3) the picture book canon of Lucille Clifton, poet laureate of Maryland and Pulitzer nominee, and one of the most prolific writers of verse and prose for children. The book also features illustrations representing books published between 1920 and the present. Included among these is a cover from The Brownies' Book magazine, a wood-cut from Hughes and Bontemps' 1932 Popa and Fifina, and a painting from Harriet and the Promised Land, written and illustrated by celebrated artist Jacob Lawrence, and an illustration by John Steptoe. Telling Tales takes a fresh new look at material that has long been neglected. Until recently, most critics have examined not African American children's literature itself, but (mis) representations and stereotypes of black people in mainstream literature. This current study is an attempt to redirect critical inquiry in the field. The book creates a space for further critical study that will more fully explore issues herein: the relationship between the publishing industry and the development of African American children's literature; the nature of the relationship between African American adult and children's literature; the relationship between word and image, and more. Most importantly, the book provides a useful introduction and model for reading this literature for a broad audience that includes parents, teachers, librarians, other educators, and scholars of African American letters.

Set in the final years of apartheid in South Africa, Dianne Case's gripping novel shows Annie, a black South African woman, struggling to raise her children against a background of extreme personal, economic and political hardship. Annie vividly tells her own story in a series of internal monologues addressed to her white employer, 'Madam'. With a combination of delicacy and devastating irony the narrative shows how these women are drawn together by mutual liking and sympathy and how their lives share numerous parallels, and yet how absolutely their experiences are separated by the inequalities of apartheid.

TAYLOR FRANCIS LTD
2025

Exploring the relationship among blacks, religion, and the environment, this book examines how blacks have understood and related to the environment throughout their history.
