Photographs at the Edge – Vittorio Sella and Wilfred Thesiger

Photographs at the Edge – Vittorio Sella and Wilfred Thesiger

Roger Härtl; David Breashears; Alexander Maitland; Levison Wood

GROLIER CLUB OF NEW YORK
2022
sidottu
An illustrated look at two early-twentieth-century explorers whose work took them to deserts and mountain peaks, coinciding with the rise of modern photography along the way. Vittorio Sella (1859–1943) was the foremost mountaineering photographer of the late-nineteenth and early-twentieth centuries, producing widely celebrated images of K2 and other famed peaks. Sir Wilfred Thesiger (1910–2003) was a writer, photographer, and explorer, whose greatest journey took him across the Rub’ al Khali, a vast desert encompassing much of the Arabian Peninsula. In his new book, Roger Härtl considers these two far-flung figures side by side, telling the stories of two influential explorers through their bibliographic and photographic work, and creating a tapestry where exploration, writing, and image-making all conjoin. As Härtl shows in this richly illustrated volume, the triumphs of Sella and Thesiger coincided with the end of a golden age of geographical exploration and with the rise of photography as we know it today.

Political Economy of Economic Policy

Political Economy of Economic Policy

Wilfred L. David

Praeger Publishers Inc
1988
sidottu
David takes as his point of departure the orthodox rational paradigm of public policy-making--which, he argues, does not adequately reflect real-world process--to present an integrated model for economic policy formulation and execution. By juxtaposing the theoretical foundations of the rationalist model with insights drawn from alternative systems of political economy, he shows how economic decisionmaking is both more complex and less idealistic than the rational paradigm assumes. In constructing his argument, David systematically integrates ideas drawn from moral philosophy, politics, sociology, systems theory, institutional and neo-Marxian economic thought, and international dimensions of poitical economy. He suggests a reorientation of theory and analysis based on an approach emphasizing the role of values, conflicts, power, and divergent interests in the decisionmaking process. Focusing throughout on questions raised by the rationalist model, David builds his analysis around issues such as: the validity of the dominant theories of public economic decision-making; the logical vis-a-vis ideological foundations of economic policy postulates; the extent to which decisions can be made more responsive to values pertaining to human development.

Skriftemålet

Skriftemålet

Wilfrid Stinissen & David Vincent Nielsen

Katolsk Forlag
2005
pokkari
Længslen efter forsoning og åndelig vækstligger dybt i mennesket. Denne bog viser hen til det kristne svar på disse længsler: forsoningens sakramente (skriftemålet) og åndelig vækst gennem regelmæssig samvittighedsransagelse. Forsoningens sakramente er Guds udstrakte hånd, men vi skal gribe den for at kunne modtage Hans hjælp. Det er ofte sværere, end man tror, og skriftemålet hører da også til dem af Kirkens gode tilbud, der ikke værdsættes efter fortjeneste. Det kan have flere grunde, som broder Wilfrid Stinissen OCD i sit bidrag til denne bog også kommer ind på, men det er ikke desto mindre synd og skam. Skriftemålet trænger til at blive genopdaget. En af grundene til, at skriftemålet ikke rigtig værdsættes, er måske, at vi har vænnet os af med at pleje det åndelige liv, vænnet os af med at se åndelig vækst som en opgave for enhver af os. Her lever vi for tiden i en overgangstid, for personlig, åndelig vækst er på ny blevet et tema i offentligheden. Kirken råder på dette punkt over en stor rigdom af spirituelle traditioner, der kan hjælpe og støtte sand åndelig vækst. En af de vigtigste og mest effektive af disse traditioner går tilbage til Sankt Ignatius af Loyola, og det er den, broder David Vincent Nielsen OCD øser af i sit bidrag om samvittighedsransagelse og åndelig vækst. Bogen afsluttes med to skriftespejle og ritualet for skriftemål.

Come Retribution

Come Retribution

William A. Tidwell; James O. Hall; David Winfred Gaddy

University Press of Mississippi
1988
nidottu
Many Confederates believed that Abraham Lincoln himself was the sponsor of the Union army's heavy destruction of the South. With John Wilkes Booth as its agent, the Confederate Secret Service devised a plan of retribution--to seize President Lincoln, hold him hostage, and bring the war-weary North to capitulation. The code word for this stratagem was ""Come Retribution."" But when Booth was stymied, the Secret Service took another course. They conspired to bomb the White House during a conference of senior Union officials. But this plot also failed. Next, the Confederates devised for Confederate forces to abandon Richmond and Petersburg and to link up with General Joseph E. Johnston in the South before General Grant's forces were prepared to move. This plan was thwarted, however, when Grant took Richmond. By April 9, 1865, Lee was forced to surrender. Yet the willful, ardent Booth, smarting from the South's loss of the war, took decisive action at Ford's Theater during that spring night in 1865. Investigating the assassination from their perspective as career intelligence officers, William A. Tidwell and David Winfred Gaddy, joined by James O. Hall, one of the leading authorities on the assassination, find and follow the clues, interpret the clandestine evidence, and draw well-founded conclusions. They are the first to explore the Confederate Secret Service's link to the death of Lincoln. In Come Retribution, originally published in 1988 and now available again in a paperback edition, they offer startling insights and give a new direction to the well-known and often-told story of Lincoln and Booth. ""The facts presented and the inferences drawn are provocative,"" said Nathan Miller in The Baltimore Sun. ""Every account of the Lincoln assassination published in the future will have to take account of the arguments presented in this book.

Die Naturbeschreibung Im «Journal» Von Henry David Thoreau

Die Naturbeschreibung Im «Journal» Von Henry David Thoreau

Wilfried Koch

Peter Lang AG
2012
sidottu
Die Arbeit geht der Frage nach, wie das Tagebuch als Textformat und Schreibort in Verbindung mit der Beschreibung die Erforschung, Darstellung und Erfahrung von Natur und Landschaft pragt. Unter Einbeziehung von Konzepten der kognitiven Narratologie sowie raumlich-visueller und transmedialer Aspekte werden in textnahen Analysen strukturelle Probleme des beschreibenden Textes (Metapher, Metonymie) und Verfahren des Rekonstruierens und Simulierens von Naturerfahrung als Umsetzung von Wahrnehmung in Text eroertert. Das Journal von Henry David Thoreau erweist sich als Versuch, auf der Basis der Naturasthetik des Picturesque durch schreibend-reflektierendes Erinnern eine zur Entdeckung befahigte Form von Subjektivitat als verdichtetes Gewahrsein von Welt- und Selbsterfahrung in wechselnden Aussen- und Innenansichten zu projizieren.

In the tradition of Calvin & Hobbes and Dr. Seuss comes a new story of unlikely friendship. Once upon a time, in a land far, far away, there lived a humongous and hairy giant named Wilfred. Whenever people saw him, they ran away, which made life very lonely for Wilfred. That is, until he found himself in a rather unusual town where one brave little boy saw something special in the timid giant. So begins a story of friendship and sacrifice that will remind readers just how important one voice - no matter how small - can be. In this moving debut, Ryan Higgins shows his knack for blending humor and heart, and gives Lorax fans an unforgettable new hero.
