Basil's Quest, A Tale of Dogged Determination

Life is complicated whether you're a human or a dog, and it's no different for Basil, a mixed-breed Labrador retriever. Basil doesn't want much: just a forever home where he can love and be loved in return. Told from a dog's perspective, this children's chapter book by Gracie Vandiver, is packed with humor and adventure. Recommended for ages 8-12, Basil's Quest, A Tale of Dogged Determination, includes six black-and-white illustrations by Amanda Penecale to help children visualize Basil in his adventures. When lovable Basil escapes from his yard in search of a better life one too many times, his owner surrenders him to the care of a neighbor. Jolie, who's involved in animal rescue, then reaches out to her friend, Hannah, who owns a doggie day care center. Together they strategize on finding Basil a loving forever home. And so Basil's fresh start in life begins. Through self-awareness and inner strength, Basil demonstrates that his unhappy past need not decide his future, but instead can shape it for the better. Rather than stopping him in his (dog) tracks, each challenge makes him even more determined to succeed. Sure, he has off days -- doesn't everybody? -- but Basil's courage, perseverance, and positive attitude pull him through, along with the help of some very special humans. Basil's Quest offers keen insights about forgiveness and healing. It imparts valuable life lessons that anyone, at any age, can take to heart. The message of Basil's Quest is simple. The healing power of love can conquer obstacles and overcome adversity. Basil's Quest is a charming dog story with a happy ending. It will resonate with young readers, enabling them, by example, to face their own obstacles and setbacks in life. If Basil can succeed in his quest, the book is saying, so can we all.

Basil Bernstein, Code Theory, and Education

Basil Bernstein, Code Theory, and Education

Taylor Francis Ltd
2021
nidottu
Over a career spanning forty years, Basil Bernstein produced theoretical models about the workings of educational systems, and how these systems produce social relations of inequality. He was considered by many to be a radical scholar whose work generated enormous controversies. One such controversy was around code theory, specifically restricted and elaborated codes which came to signify—for some scholars—the deficit views of those living in poverty. Bernstein weathered the intensity of the debates around these ideas, spending much of his career vehemently challenging deficit portrayals of code theory, reworking and extending his theoretical corpus with the development of ideas around pedagogic discourse and identity. The past decade has witnessed a revival of interest in Bernstein’s theoretical ideas across fields as diverse as policy studies, sociology of education, curriculum and pedagogy studies, anthropology, linguistics, and social and cultural psychology. This book contributes to the revival of Bernstein’s work by examining specifically some women’s contribution to this theoretical corpus. The contributions traverse a number of disciplines, building a rich tapestry of concepts to think about education systems and the formation of social minds. Significantly the book tackles the complex matter of how to empirically work with Bernstein’s ideas, and so contribute to debates about the nexus between theory and methods. The chapters in this book were originally published as articles in Taylor & Francis journals or previously published in Taylor & Francis books.

Basil Bernstein: The Thinker and the Field provides a comprehensive introduction to the work of Basil Bernstein, demonstrating his distinctive contribution to social theory by locating it within the historical context of the development of the sociology of education and Sociology in Britain. Although Bernstein had a particular interest in education, he did not see himself as a sociologist of education alone. By exploring Bernstein’s intellectually collaborative character and the evolving system of ideas, drawing upon anthropology and linguistics, the originality of Bernstein’s contribution to the social sciences can be truly identified.Rob Moore’s text offers a provocative and challenging account both of Bernstein, and of British sociology and education, approaching Bernstein’s work as a complex model of intertwining ideas rather than a single theory. Continued interest in Bernstein’s work has opened up a world-wide network of scholarship, and Moore considers contemporary research alongside classical sources in Durkheim and Marx, to provide a historical analysis of the fields of British Sociology and the sociology of education, pinpointing Bernstein’s position within them. The book is organised into two main parts:The FieldBackground and Beginnings Durkheim, Cosmology and EducationThe ProblematicThe Structure of Pedagogic Discourse Bernstein and Theory Bernstein and research The Pedagogic DeviceWritten by a leading authority in the field, this text will be valuable reading for post-graduate students of sociology and education, along with active researchers and their research students.

This first full length critical biography of one of the most significant figures in Japanese Studies in the last hundred years is based on an earlier work published in Japanese (Iwanami Shoten, 1990). Ota sees Chamberlain as a giant of his period, both academically and intellectually. His achievements include the first publication of a translation of the Kojiki, his pioneering work as the 'father' of Japanese linguistics, and the acclaimed Things Japanese which served generations as an everyman encyclopaedia. However, Ota also acknowledges Chamberlain's vision in recognising the distinctive merits and strengths of Japanese society and culture at a time of xenophobic Europeanism, made possible by the fact that Chamberlain was ahead of his times as a multi-lingual and multi-cultural personality.
