On the Waves of Empire

On the Waves of Empire

William D. Riddell

UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS PRESS
2023
sidottu
In the aftermath of the Spanish-American War, the United States’ acquisition of an overseas empire compelled the nation to reconsider the boundary between domestic and foreign--and between nation and empire. William D. Riddell looks at the experiences of merchant sailors and labor organizations to illuminate how domestic class conflict influenced America’s emerging imperial system. Maritime workers crossed ever-shifting boundaries that forced them to reckon with the collision of different labor systems and markets. Formed into labor organizations like the Sailor’s Union of the Pacific and the International Seaman’s Union of America, they contested the U.S.’s relationship to its empire while capitalists in the shipping industry sought to impose their own ideas. Sophisticated and innovative, On the Waves of Empire reveals how maritime labor and shipping capital stitched together, tore apart, and re-stitched the seams of empire.

The Wright Stuff

The Wright Stuff

James W. Riddlesperger; Anthony Champagne; Daniel Williams

Texas Christian University Press,U.S.
2013

Inspired by his parents’ love for the written word, former Speaker of the House Jim Wright developed a passion for books and writing at a young age. During his thirty-four years as a US Congressman and two years as Speaker of the House, written communication continued to play an integral role in Wright’s life as he developed an increased understanding of the power of words. Through a sampling of some of Wright’s finest work, The Wright Stuff follows the major elements in Wright’s political career, ideological development, and philosophical thought. A prolific and accomplished writer, Wright possesses the keen ability to properly contextualize historic events while providing enduring lessons in governance and life. In addition to offering a unique perspective on Wright’s contemporaries and the leaders of today, this compilation of speeches, essays, and excerpts from his previous work addresses many of the major national and international events of the twentieth century. Additionally, this book chronicles a more personal narrative through Wright’s reflection on the most important influence of his young life—his parents—and shares some of the key lessons he learned during his service with the US Air Corps during World War II. Generously illustrated with photographs, The Wright Stuff allows readers to celebrate the many accomplishments of Speaker Wright, and, through his eyes, to gain a greater understanding of many of the signature events of the twentieth century.

How are great turning points in history experienced by individuals?As Britain pulls away from Europe great British writers come together to give voice to their innermost feelings. These writers include novelists, writers of books for children, of comic books, humourists, historians, biographers, nature writers, film writers, travel writers, writers young and old and from an extraordinary range of backgrounds. Most are famous perhaps because they have won the Booker or other literary prizes, written bestsellers, changed the face of popular culture or sold millions of records. Others are not yet household names but write with depth of insight and feeling.There is some extraordinary writing in this book. Some of these pieces are expressions of love of particular places in Europe. Some are true stories, some nostalgic, some hopeful. Some are cries of pain. There are hilarious pieces. There are cries of pain and regret. Some pieces are quietly devastating. All are passionate.Conceived as a love letter to Europe, this book may also help reawaken love for Britain. It shows the unique richness and diversity of British cultures, a multitude of voices in harmony.Contributors include:Hugh Aldersey-Williams, Philip Ardagh, Jake Arnott, Patricia Atkinson, Paul Atterbury, Richard Beard, Mary Beard, Don Boyd, Melvyn Bragg, Gyles Brandreth, Kathleen Burke, James Buxton, Philip Carr, Brian Catling, Shami Chakrabarti, Chris Cleave, Mark Cocker, Peter Conradi , Heather Cooper, Frank Cottrell-Boyce, Roger Crowley, David Crystal, William Dalrymple, Lindsey Davies, Margaret Drabble, Mark Ellen, Richard Evans, Michel Faber, Sebastian Faulks, Ranulph Fiennes, Robert Fox, James Fox, Neil Gaiman, Evelyn Glennie, James Hanning, Nick Hayes, Alan Hollinghurst, Gabby Hutchinson-Crouch, Will Hutton, Robert Irwin, Holly Johnson , Liane Jones, Ruth Jones, Sam Jordison, Kapka Kassabova, AL Kennedy, Hermione Lee, Prue Leith, Patrick Lenox, Roger Lewis, David Lindo, Penelope Lively, Beth Lync, Richard Mabey, Sue MacGregor, Ian Martin, Frank McDonough, Jonathan Meades, Andrew Miller, Deborah Moggach, Ben Moor, Alan Moore, Paul Morley, Jackie Morris, Charles Nicholl, Richard Overy, Chris Riddell, Adam Roberts, Tony Robinson, Lee Rourke, Sophie Sabbage, Marcus Sedgwick, Richard Shirreff, Paul Stanford, Isy Suttie, Sandi Toksvig, Colin Tudge, Ed Vulliamy, Anna Whitelock, Kate Williams, Michael Wood, Louisa Young

I Berättande i förskolan går Barbro Bruce och Bim Riddersporre igenom hur berättandet och berättelser ständigt är närvarande i vårt samhälle, särskilt i förskolan. I boken medverkar en rad författare som Polly Björk-Willén, Ulla Damber, Christian Eidevald, Carina Fast, Niklas Pramling, Anna-Karin Svensson, med många fler. I förskolan är berättande och berät­telser ständigt närvarande. Berät­tande i förskolan låter människans behov av att berätta och ta del av berättelser löpa som en röd tråd genom samtliga texter. Att berätta är ett sätt att bearbeta sina intryck, tankar och erfarenheter genom någon form av gestaltning. Berättande kan ta sig olika former och uttryck men handlar alltid om att göra något synligt, begripligt och möjligt att dela. I boken skriver etablerade forskare och utvecklare under tre större delar:Det berättande barnet – att skapa och dela.Berättelser som vidgar världen – litteratur och lärande. Att berätta om sin verksamhet – dokumentation och delaktighet. Medverkande författare är: Polly Björk-Willén, Barbro Bruce, Ulla Damber, Christian Eidevald, Katarina Elfström-Peterson, Elin Eriksen Øde­gaard, Carina Fast, Kristine Hultberg Ingridz, Karin Jönsson, Jan Nilsson, Niklas Pramling, Bim Riddersporre, Björn Sundmark, Anna-Karin Svensson, Pia Williams. Barbro Bruce och Bim Riddersporre är redaktörer för boken.Läs mer om boken och författarna på Malmö högskolas webbsidaGediget, grundligt och nyanserat om berättande.
