The Conscience of James Joyce

The Conscience of James Joyce

Darcy O'Brien

Princeton University Press
2015
pokkari
James Joyce, the great and bold literary innovator of our time, was also a rebel in life, a self-exile from family, nation, and religion. Criticism of Joyce, when it has not been purely technical, has sought in Joyce's work ideas as radical as his techniques and as rebellious as his life. Mr. O'Brien discovers that Joyce was neither morally revolutionary nor morally neutral. Instead, Joyce emerges as an Irishman clinging to a conception of human nature largely derived from the Irish Catholic background he so vehemently denounced. In this study of Joyce's work, from his early poems through Ulysses and Finnegans Wake, Mr. O'Brien argues that Joyce eventually achieved, in his books, a comic perspective on the follies of mankind. Originally published in 1968. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.

We all want someone to walk with through the highs and lows, an authentic friend who will help us stay anchored to things that matter and avoid things that do not. A woman who will support, love, and encourage us, as we do the same for her.And that mentoring relationship can start today. With you.Mentoring is an opportunity for women to love one another, to figure out life side by side. It might look different from what it used to: not formal meetings but getting together for coffee when you need to talk. Not one-sided advice but an intergenerational friendship where both parties connect, encourage, listen, and learn.The conversational exploration offered here looks at the story of Jesus meeting the woman at the well, and other examples from the Bible and real life, to see what that connection looks like. It meets you where you are and helps you move forward to genuine mentoring.

Hand Wrought Arts & Crafts Metalwork and Jewelry

Hand Wrought Arts & Crafts Metalwork and Jewelry

Darcy L. Evon

Schiffer Publishing Ltd
2014
sidottu
The Arts and Crafts Movement, a fascinating period in American decorative history, led to the unprecedented commercialization of fine crafts and the empowerment of thousands of women and immigrants, who began to pursue new careers in design and handicraft. In 1893, the World's Fair in Chicago heralded the egalitarian art movement in America that led to the establishment of a plethora of metalwork and jewelry companies and studios by the turn of the century. Darcy Evon documents how these new trends spread throughout the Midwest and eventually the country, led by innovative pioneers who inspired an entire nation. They designed exquisite, original pieces of metalwork and jewelry by hand, starting with basic raw materials. Dozens of previously unidentified shops, artists, their creations, and accurate information on well-known historical figures, are featured for the first time in this important, major publication. Organized by trade name and location, this book is for collectors, dealers, and art historians, as well as artisans.
Wildlife, Conservation, and Conflict in Quebec, 1840-1914

Wildlife, Conservation, and Conflict in Quebec, 1840-1914

Darcy Ingram

University of British Columbia Press
2013
sidottu
Despite the popular assumption that wildlife conservation is a recent phenomenon, it emerged over a century and a half ago in an era more closely associated with wildlife depletion than preservation. In Wildlife, Conservation, and Conflict in Quebec, Darcy Ingram explores the combination of NGOs, fish and game clubs, and state-administered leases that formed the basis of a unique system of wildlife conservation in North America. However, these early strategies were not as forward-focused as they appear. Ingram traces the emergence of a lease-based regulatory system that blended elite forms of sport and conservation. Applied first to British North America's prized salmon rivers, this system came to encompass the bulk of Quebec's hunting and fishing territories. Inspired by a longstanding belief in progress, improvement, and social order based on European as well as North American models, this system effectively privatized Quebec's fish and game resources, often to the detriment of commercial and subsistence hunters and fishers.

The (Underground) Railroad in African American Literature

The (Underground) Railroad in African American Literature

Darcy A. Zabel

Peter Lang Publishing Inc
2004
nidottu
"The (Underground) Railroad in African American Literature" offers a brief history of the African American experience of the railroad and the uses of railroad history by a wide assortment of twentieth-century African American poets, dramatists, and fiction writers. Moreover, this literary history examines the ways in which trains, train history, and legendary train figures such as Harriet Tubman and John Henry have served as literary symbols. This repeated use of the train symbol and associated train people in twentieth-century African American literature creates a sense of literary continuity and a well-established aesthetic tradition all too frequently overlooked in many traditional approaches to the study of African American writing. The metaphoric possibilities associated with the railroad and the persistence of the train as a literary symbol in African American writing demonstrates the symbol's ongoing literary value for twentieth-century African American writers - writers who invite their readers to look back at the various points in history where America got off track, and who also dare to invite their readers to imagine an alternate route for the future.

Who am I? How do I fit in? What is my purpose? What can I do to make a difference, to address issues like climate change, political turmoil, and social injustice?These are some burning questions for young people today, who despite challenges and uncertain futures, are at the forefront of cultural transformation. This book is about how rites of passage help young people begin to answer these big questions, while initiating them into healthy meaningful adulthood, channeling their gifts, and helping them find their place in multigenerational movements for change.Rites of passage are a diverse set of practices fundamental to healthy development. Found in all cultures, they are one of humanity's most ancient psychological, social, spiritual, and cultural tools. In this book, readers learn what rites of passage can offer in times of turmoil and transition; how these practices came to be stolen, destroyed, or co-opted in most cultural traditions; and how young people can reclaim their own rites of passage into adulthood.Through real-life stories and quotes that cut across lines of race, class, culture, gender, and more, social science research, and step-by-step exercises, this book gives young people the tools they need create their own initiatory journey, supports adults who never experienced their own initiation, and provides an invaluable resource for anyone helping young people navigate their path to adulthood."Darcy returns to the people the medicine of rites of passage in a way that honors the harm that has been done and delivers the hope for a healthier and more just future."
