The Architecture of Grosvenor Atterbury

The Architecture of Grosvenor Atterbury

In the final decade of the nineteenth century and the early twentieth century, the United States experienced exponential growth and a flourishing economy, and with it, a building boom. Grosvenor Atterbury (1869–1956) produced more than one hundred major projects, including an array of grand mansions, picturesque estates, informal summer cottages, and farm groups. However, it was his role as town planner and civic leader and his work to create model tenements, hospitals, workers’ housing, and town plans for which he is most celebrated. His Forest Hills Gardens, designed in association with the Olmsted Brothers, is lauded as one of the most highly significant community planning projects of its time. As an inventor, Atterbury was responsible for one of the country’s first low-cost, prefabricated concrete construction systems, introducing beauty and inexpensive good design into the lives of the working classes. The Architecture of Grosvenor Atterbury is the first book to showcase the rich and varied repertoire of this prolific architect whose career spanned six decades and whose work affected the course of American architecture, planning, and construction. Illustrated with Jonathan Wallen’s stunning color photographs and over 250 historic drawings, plans, and photographs, it also includes a catalogue raisonné and an employee roster. It is the definitive source on an architect who made an indelible imprint on the American landscape.

This practical book will help Black language scholars make informed decisions throughout their academic careers: as a doctoral student, while on the academic job market, when beginning a new faculty position, when transitioning from early-career to mid-career, and when pursuing leadership positions. Lifting As We Climb provides new empirical knowledge to facilitate the recruitment, retention, and advancement of Black language scholars in the United States. The text directly connects language, identity, ideology, and societal and institutional structures to explore the specific ways Black language scholars are positioned in higher education. Narratives of the experiences of Black faculty illustrate how their linguistic development, awareness, and dexterity shape their interconnected personal and professional lives, including specific dynamics of inclusion and exclusion. Readers will come to understand how language shapes the experiences of Black scholars at different stages of their careers and why that is crucial to efforts toward systemic change. Lifting As We Climb is a model of how to support today’s faculty through Black-centered academic professional development. Book Features: Centers the linguistic experiences of Black faculty, filling a critical gap in research on higher education and Black language. Draws on a mixed-methods empirical study that combines analyses of Black language scholars’ lived experiences with analyses of existing professional development literature. Provides actionable insights for recruiting, mentoring, and retaining Black faculty across the academic pipeline. Expands theoretical understandings of language, identity, and power by tracing how linguistic dexterity and linguistic bias shape Black scholars’ careers. Documents how linguistic bias intersects with structural exclusion in higher education, offering pathways toward institutional change.

In 1903, 102 Koreans migrated to Hawai'i in search of wealth and fortune - the first in their country's history to live in the Western world. Thousands followed. Most of them, however, found only hardship while working as sugar plantation laborers. Soon after their departure, Korea was colonized by Japan, and overnight they became ""international orphans"" with no government to protect them. Setting aside their original goal of bettering their own lives, these Korean immigrants redirected their energies to restoring their country's sovereignty, turning Hawai'i into a crucially important base of Korean nationalism. ""From the Land of Hibiscus"" traces the story of Koreans in Hawai'i from their first arrival to the eve of Korea's liberation in 1945. Using newly uncovered evidence, it challenges previously held ideas on the social origins of immigrants. It also examines their political background, the role of Christian churches in immigration, the image of Koreans as depicted in the media, and, above all, nationalist activities. Different approaches to waging the nationalist struggle uncover the causes of feuds that often bitterly divided the Korean community. Finally, the book provides the first in-depth studies of the nationalist activities of Syngman Rhee, the Korean National Association, and the United Korea Committee.

Animal welfare is attracting increasing interest worldwide, but particularly from those in developed countries, who now have the knowledge and resources to be able to offer the best management systems for their farm animals, as well as potentially being able to offer plentiful resources for companion, zoo and laboratory animals. The increased attention given to farm animal welfare in the West derives largely from the fact that the relentless pursuit of financial reward and efficiency has led to the development of intensive animal production systems that challenge the conscience of many consumers in those countries. In developing countries, human survival is still a daily uncertainty, so that provision for animal welfare has to be balanced against human welfare. Welfare is usually provided for only if it supports the output of the animal, be it food, work, clothing, sport or companionship. In re- ity, there are resources for all if they are properly husbanded in both developing and developed countries. The inequitable division of the world’s riches creates physical and psychological poverty for humans and animals alike in many parts of the world. Livestock are the world’s biggest land user (FAO, 2002) and the population is increasing rapidly to meet the need of an expanding human population. Populations of farm animals managed by humans are therefore increasing worldwide, and there is the tendency to allocate fewer resources to each animal.

To Govern Is to Serve explores the practices of collective governance in medieval religious orders that turned the precepts of the Gospels—most notably that "the first will be last, the last will be first"—into practices of communal deliberation and the election of superiors. Jacques Dalarun argues that these democratic forms have profoundly influenced modern experiences of democracy, in particular the idea of government not as domination but as service. Dalarun undertakes meticulous textual analysis and historical research into twelfth and thirteenth-century religious movements—from Fontevraud and the Paraclete of Abelard and Heloise through St. Dominic and St. Francis—that sought their superiors from among the less exalted members of their communities to chart how these experiments prefigured certain aspects of modern democracies, those allowing individuals to find their way forward as part of a collective. Wide ranging and deeply original,To Govern Is to Serve highlights the history of the reciprocal bonds of service and humility that underpin increasingly fragile democracies in the twenty-first century.

In Shrines, Relics, and Saints,the eminent medievalist André Vauchez explores the evolution of spaces in Christianity—chapels, monasteries, holy wells, grottos, and other holy places—that are considered sacred because they house the relics of a saint or because they preserve the memory of an appearance by a saint, angel, or the Virgin Mary. From famous sanctuaries that still attract multitudes of pilgrims—in Jerusalem, Rome, Tours, Assisi, and Compostela—to local shrines in villages, towns and wild places across the continent, these sanctuaries were frequented by pilgrims in search of miraculous healings of body and soul. Together, they formed a network comprising new forms of sacredness and spiritual practice. A masterwork in the history of Christianity, Shrines, Relics, and Saints traces pilgrimage routes to major sanctuaries, follows saints' relics as they were transferred from East to West, and examines the Church's ambiguous and sometimes antagonistic relationship to sites of popular worship.

Radiances gathers previously unpublished essays by one of the greatest historians of the twentieth century. Although best known for The King's Two Bodies (1957), Ernst Kantorowicz's scholarly expertise ranged from classical antiquity to early modernity and from political pageantry to numismatics. These essays traverse the breadth of his expertise, exploring "radiations" of the themes that were central to his published work: sovereignty, theology, law, and iconography. The radiations in these engaging essays include the imagery of throne-sharing from the Hellenistic era and Pharaonic Egypt to early Christianity, coronation ceremonies in Byzantium and the West, the Carolingian and Burgundian Renaissances, the relationship between Rome and Christianity, the importance of history as a humanistic pursuit, and the significance of postage stamps in political myth-building. Robert E. Lerner discusses each essay's composition, themes, and place in Kantorowicz's oeuvre. Combining vast knowledge with intellectual delight, Radiances teems with the profound historical insights that distinguished Kantorowicz's scholarship.

Das Störungsbild der ADHS zeigt sich im Jugendalter besonders komplex und vielfältig. Interventionen sollten darauf ausgelegt sein, dass die Jugendlichen überdauernde Fertigkeiten für verschiedene Alltagssituationen erlernen, um die Folgen und Beeinträchtigungen durch ihr Störungsbild lebenslang bewältigen zu können. Die Jugendlichen sollen soweit wie möglich selbst Verantwortung für ihren therapeutischen Prozess übernehmen und in ihren Ressourcen gestärkt werden. Das standardisierte Trainingsprogramm verfolgt eine Kompetenzsteigerung in den drei Kernbereichen Aufmerksamkeit, Verhaltensorganisation und Emotionsregulation. In zehn Trainingssitzungen werden mit den Jugendlichen Methoden angewandt und Strategien eingeübt für Motivation, verbesserte Aufmerksamkeit, verbessertes Planungsverhalten, Problemlösungen, Emotionsregulation und Selbstmanagement. Das Manual beinhaltet einen übersichtlich verfassten theoretischen Grundlagenteil; weiterhin wird auf die Entwicklung und Grundprinzipien des Trainingsprogramms eingegangen. Der Praxisteil umfasst die konkrete praxisnahe Beschreibung der einzelnen Trainingssitzungen sowie umfangreiches Material und optionales Zusatzmaterial zur Durchführung.

Im Zentrum des qualitativen Forschungsprojekts steht die Frage, welche Bilder vom Alter und Altern in der Schule vorherrschen und dort vermittelt werden. Dazu wurden Lehrpläne und Schul- und Lesebücher der Primarstufe und der Sekundarstufe I inhaltsanalytisch untersucht sowie Schüler(innen) der zweiten und neunten Klasse und deren Lehrer(innen) befragt. Das Projekt gibt Hinweise darauf, welche schulischen Alter(n)s­bilder und Alter(n)sdiskurse in den verschiedenen Schulformen der alten und neuen Bundesländer vermittelt werden und welche Alter(n)sbilder die Schüler(innen) und Lehrkräfte selbst haben. Auf Grundlage der gewonnenen Ergebnisse wurden die Ansätze zu einer differenzierteren Berücksichtigung von Alter(n)sbildern im Schulunterricht mit Vertreter(inne)n der schulischen Praxis diskutiert und entsprechende Anregungen erarbeitet.?

Børne- og Ungdomspsykiatri giver en grundig indføring i psykiske lidelser og udviklingsmæssige forstyrrelser fra tiden før fødslen frem til ungdomsårene. Bogen spænder vidt og behandler bl.a. spædbarnspsykiatri, hvor nye metoder til undersøgelse og behandling er under udvikling, den beskriver de psykisk syge unge, der for en kortere periode må beskyttes i et lukket afsnit, og den ser på de psykiske lidelser hos voksne, der kan have betydning for familien og samspillet med børn og unge. Der er lagt vægt på at beskrive både kontinuitet og manglende kontinuitet for psykiske lidelser fra barndom og ungdomsår til voksenalder baseret på såvel klinisk erfaring som teoretisk indsigt. Det gennemgående tema i bogen er udvikling: Hvilke ligheder og forskelle ser man mellem normal og patologisk udvikling? Børne- og ungdomspsykiatri afspejler den intense videnskabelige dialog mellem de to områder. Terminologien tager udgangspunkt i WHO ICD-10: Klassifikation og diagnostiske kriterier suppleret med spædbarns- og ungdomspsykiatriske begreber, hvor det er relevant. Redaktionen, der er sammensat af anerkendte specialister inden for deres fag, har stået i spidsen for 18 engagerede kolleger og medforfattere.
Text-based Learning and Reasoning

Text-based Learning and Reasoning

History is both an academic discipline and a school subject. As a discipline, it fosters a systematic way of discovering and evaluating the events of the past. As a school subject, American history is a staple of middle grades and high school curricula in the United States. In higher education, it is part of the liberal arts education tradition. Its role in school learning provides a context for our approach to history as a topic of learning. In reading history, students engage in cognitive processes of learning, text processing, and reasoning. This volume touches on each of these cognitive problems -- centered on an in-depth study of college students' text learning and extended to broader issues of text understanding, the cognitive structures that enable learning of history, and reasoning about historical problems. Slated to occupy a distinctive place in the literature on human cognition, this volume combines at least three key features in a unique examination of the course of learning and reasoning in one academic domain -- history. The authors draw theory and analysis of text understanding from cognitive science; and focus on multiple "natural" texts of extended length rather than laboratory texts as well as multiple and extended realistic learning situations. The research demonstrates that history stories can be described by causal-temporal event models and that these models capture the learning achieved by students. This text establishes that history learning includes learning a story, but does not assume that story learning is all there is in history. It shows a growth in students' reasoning about the story and a linkage -- developed over time and with study -- between learning and reasoning. It then illustrates that students can be exceedingly malleable in their opinions about controversial questions -- and generally quite influenced by the texts they read. And it presents patterns of learning and reasoning within and between individuals as well as within the group of students as a whole. By examining students' ability to use historical documents, this volume goes beyond story learning into the problem of document-based reasoning. The authors show not just that history is a story from the learner's point of view, but also that students can develop a certain expertise in the use of documents in reasoning.
