【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】Light Touches Cultural Practices of Illumination, 1800-1900【電子書籍】[ Alice Barnaby ]

＜p＞Light Touches: Cultural Practices of Illumination, 1800-1900 explores how urban lives in the nineteenth century were increasingly touched by innovations in the technologies and aesthetics of illumination. Dramatic changes in qualities of light ? and darkness ? became acutely palpable to the human sensorium; using, seeing, feeling, and being in light were now matters of intense personal and cultural concern. Light gave meaningful vitality to the period’s material culture, and light itself became something to be perceptually consumed.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Over the course of six chapters Alice Barnaby traces how light was used in amateur artistic pastimes, interior design and clothing fashions, spectacular public amusements, volatile street demonstrations, and art gallery designs. From these previously unexplored examples a more complex history of light in the period emerges. Society’s fascination with illumination, its desire to work with it and make meaning from it gave rise to a distinctly new set of cultural practices. Through these practices unexpected discoveries about the modern world were revealed. Light proved to be instrumental in everyday acts of experimentation and imaginative enquiry.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Barnaby offers an intervention into the dominant scholarly narrative of the nineteenth century which traditionally reads modernity as synonymous with the formation of a spectacular, disembodied visuality. ＜em＞Light Touches＜/em＞, in contrast, returns vision to the body and foregrounds the actively felt - as well as seen - sensation of light. In coming to understand these cultural practices of illumination, the book reconsiders many assumptions about nineteenth-century modernity.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】Human Nature【電子書籍】[ Alice Anderson ]

＜p＞＜em＞Human Nature＜/em＞ explores, both seductively and horrificly, the redemptive possibilities found in an American girlhood gone wrong. Every one of Anderson's poems tells a story-dangerous, sensuous, sometimes crazy, sometimes sacred tales that take us into the heartbreaking reality and strangeness of a little girl who grew up the woman of the house; at once drink-maker, showpiece, secret-keeper, and object of lust.＜br /＞ The terrain of incest and violence sets itself out on the page so subtely and plainly that the poems become mere containers for these extremes, a kind of prayer. Where formal grace might seem impossible, Anderson sings. And this is why the book -with all its darkness and danger-is, in the end, an affirmative one. The poems rise out of childhood's sorrows into a womanhood filled with the past, hell-bent on the future, and ready for a fight. In haunting, elegant verse, Anderson enters into the truth of experience. Through it all, the poems come to embrace those universal illuminations that arise out of--or even because of--suffering.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

＜p＞I wanted my grandchildren to know that on each page of the original manuscript I noted the day and the hour as I wrote that they would understand they were in my mind and heart. So, here's to Colten, Kaden, Jewel, Joy, Dillon and his son Rivers. I am a grandmother thanking her grandchildren for their patience, understanding and love as I wrote tirelessly for them and their world. Thank you: I love you.＜/p＞ ＜p＞...........About God and Alice: this book would never have been completed without Alice Young.＜/p＞ ＜p＞It started this time last year as a Compilation of the Old and New Testament as an exploration and what it meant when Jesus and the Disciples would head for the Mountains and when they were near Jesus would go ahead of them, "and when He was set; He would call for them to join Him.＜/p＞ ＜p＞It was about this time that Covid was at its peak and hundreds were dying from it and each of us were waiting for our time to have to confront it. I was awakened one morning with a horrible cough and was choking, couldn't get my breath. I ask the Lord what was wrong, He impressed on me by His holy power to relax my shoulders and take a deep breathe. Right away the precious air began to flow. Again, I ask the Lord, "what is wrong?＜/p＞ ＜p＞It was at this moment that He reminded me that we had a covenant to write for the people and how very serious that was to Him. I realized my way back to health was to take up my pen and write to you, His people that He loves so much and instructed us to look after each other before He returned to His kingdom. When:＜/p＞ ＜p＞I took my pen in hand I began to see the happy side of the Old and New Testament. And began to pick out the stories that I believed the young people would enjoy and could relate to if they could find a bible with dates. I remembered one little light can destroy darkness. It was at this time writing way into the dark morning that my pages began to disappear. And I would rewrite them. Fifty from the Old Testament and 40 from the new. Discouragement was setting in. I remembered to ask everyone in my circle for prayer. Then the manuscript was sent to Cheyenne Wyoming and the manuscript and the money for publication were both stolen. I was so despondent at my lowest ebb and in comes Alice into my life from the heartbeat of New York. I Understood the prayers were being heard and attended to. She was gracious enough to feel my pain and sent daily digital flowers and an uplifting scripture and best of all she would not take "no" for an answer. She literally loaned me her spiritual strength until I could move forward on my own to finish this book for you, for her and her team and my beautiful family. I recognized God had sent in to help and I always say that's what Jesus came to do. He stretched out His hand to us to love us, to teach us, to heal us, to feed us and told us to look after each other until we meet again. This is what moves the world for good. Thank you to Alice, Ruby, Monique and her team at the Regency Publishers, for Kirsten, Kelly, Colten, Kaden, Joe, Lisa, Dillon, Allysa, Rivers, John, Judy, Jewel and Joy and all the members of Addus especially Ericka, and Kaylee for their fine care as I concentrated on this work. And all others that gave a hand it is noted in heaven. Thank you all!!!＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】Meditations in Wonderland【電子書籍】[ Anna Patrick ]

＜p＞FOLLOW ELIZABETH DOWN THE RABBIT HOLE-AND MEET A WHOLE NEW ALICE. Elizabeth, a twenty-four-year-old interior designer living in Brooklyn, New York, encounters a little more than mental static when she sits down for her morning meditation, feeling disconnected from herself and her reality. As she meditates, she forces herself to confront her inner demons head on-including the darker parts that she would rather keep hidden from others, like her boyfriend, Adam. Her inner conflict leads her down a rabbit hole that is far different from the one she remembers from her favorite childhood story. When Elizabeth reaches the bottom of the rabbit hole, she follows a shadowy figure in a familiar blue dress who taunts her and coaxes her deeper into Wonderland. Unable to release herself from her meditation, Elizabeth chases Alice through Wonderland, guided by clues left by Alice, as well as the dark and strangely familiar characters she meets, like the Cheshire Cat, the Tweedle twins, and the Mad Hatter. In Wonderland, Elizabeth comes face to face with her inner light and darkness, and, finally, Alice-and discovers that Alice's secret might be what she has been searching for all along.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】Taking Yoga Off the Mat【電子書籍】[ Jenni Clark ]

＜p＞A catchy title is the first example of the creative use of metaphors which fill Taking Yoga Off the Mat, by Jenni Carmichael Clark. The philosophy is simple, “We can do hard things ON the mat. So, we can also do hard things when we roll it up and leave. We can handle challenges ON the mat, and we can handle what we face OFF the mat as well.”＜/p＞ ＜p＞While it may sound like a book written for yoga enthusiasts, every chapter introduces imaginative concepts which have universal application. Some messages refer to specific yoga poses where Jenni provides ideas on how to apply the exercise principles in day-to-day life. In the Chapter, Get Your Ticket for The Happiness Express, Jenni pulls back the curtain to the most common, yet elusive, trait we are all seeking… happiness… and shows its relation to (you guessed it) …yoga!＜/p＞ ＜p＞“I have heard it said that ‘Happiness is a decision, not an occurrence.’＜br /＞ That it’s something you choose. No matter what comes at you, you can decide＜br /＞ whether to allow it to thwart your joy or strengthen your spirit. That Finding＜br /＞ Joy is not the same as Living in Joy. I learn that in my yoga practice. No matter＜br /＞ what pose I am faced with, or how difficult/easy it might be, I can determine＜br /＞ how to react and manage the challenges it presents. I can choose my response.＜br /＞ And I can take that decision off the mat every time I walk back into the world.”＜br /＞ ーTaking Yoga Off the Mat pg. 103＜/p＞ ＜p＞In the chapter titled, Taking Child’s Pose... Inconceivable! Jenni uses multiple (surprisingly fitting) references from the story, Princess Bride, to show how something perceived as a simpler stretch, the Child’s Pose, is much more complex than it appears. Jenni explains, “Child’s Pose actually takes me deeper. It gives me a chance to reset, reflect, meditate, and get ready for what comes next in my own time. To find my breath and go deeper inside myself.”＜/p＞ ＜p＞Many themes throughout the book speak to the heart of a mother, high-five an adventurer, honor the curiosity and wonderment of a child, and encourage bravery and resilience. Jenni is promoting what she often calls her “Disney Philosophy,” which is to Believe in Impossible Things, Have Courage & Be Kind, and Do The Next Right Thing. As Walt Disney said, "Around here, we don't look backwards for very long. We keep moving forwardーopening new doors and doing new thingsーbecause we're curious. And curiosity keeps leading us down new paths!" Jenni echoes these words of Walt Disney and exclaims, “that's my Alice ‘Muchness’ philosophy in a nutshell!”＜/p＞ ＜p＞From the beginning in the Author’s Note, readers will discover a kindred spirit in Jenni Carmichael Clark. It is as if Jenni has always been the best friend you turn to for encouragement, when you need a good laugh, or are hungry for a reminder that despite all of its adversity, life is a fascinating and worthwhile adventure! In the chapter titled, What’s Next? Jenni brings her readers to the ice rink and reminds them that, “Despite bumps in the ice that cause you to take a tumble or two, the skating is amazing!” Towards the end of her book, Jenni gives the compassionate encouragement we all need, “I know firsthand that stars shine more brilliantly in the deep darkness. I’ve huddled in the dark and gazed at them up there, twinkling. We just do the work and then we let it goーin class and in life. On the mat and off of it.”＜/p＞ ＜p＞Jenni began writing reflective essays and thoughts in a blog she started in 2013 called My Own Little Corner by Jenni (myownlittlecornerbyJenni.Wordpress.com). As she found clarity and grace on her yoga mat, Jenni decided to share more of these themes in her first book, Taking Yoga Off the Mat.

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】The Cure For Death By Lightning【電子書籍】[ Gail Anderson-Dargatz ]

＜p＞"The cure for death by lightning was handwritten in thick, messy blue ink in my mother’s scrapbook, under the recipe for my father’s favourite oatcakes: ＜em＞Dunk the dead by lightning in a cold water bath for two hours and if still dead, add vinegar and soak for an hour more.＜/em＞"＜/p＞ ＜p＞So begins Gail Anderson-Dargatz’s extraordinary first novel, a seductive and thrilling book that captures the heart and imagination, as filled with the magic and mystery of life as it is with its lurking evils and gut-wrenching hardships. ＜strong＞The Cure for Death by Lightning＜/strong＞ sold more than a staggering 100,000 copies in Canada alone and became a bestseller in Great Britain, later to be published in the United States and Europe. It was nominated for the Giller Prize, the richest fiction prize in Canada, and received a Betty Trask Award in the U.K.＜/p＞ ＜p＞＜strong＞The Cure for Death by Lightning＜/strong＞ takes place in the poor, isolated farming community of Turtle Valley, British Columbia, in the shadow of the Second World War. The fifteenth summer of Beth Weeks’s life is full of strange happenings: a classmate is mauled to death; children go missing on the nearby reserve; an unseen predator pursues Beth. She is surrounded by unusual characters, including Nora, the sensual half-Native girl whose friendship provides refuge; Filthy Billy, the hired hand with Tourette’s Syndrome; and Nora’s mother, who has a man’s voice and an extra little finger. Then there’s the darkness within her own family: her domineering, shell-shocked father has fits of madness, and her mother frequently talks to the dead. Beth, meanwhile, must wrestle with her newfound sexuality in a harsh world where nylons, perfume and affection have no place. Then, in a violent storm, she is struck by lightning in her arm, and nothing is quite the same again. She decides to explore the dangers of the bush.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Beth is a strong, honest, and compassionate heroine, bringing hope and joy into an environment that is often cruel. The character of Beth’s haunted mother infuses the book with life by means of her scrapbook of recipes scattered throughout, with luscious descriptions of food, gardening, and remedies, both practical and bizarre. Seen through Beth’s eyes, the West Coast landscape is full of beauty and mysteries, with its forests and rivers, and its rich native culture.＜/p＞ ＜p＞The ＜em＞Globe and Mail＜/em＞ commented that ＜strong＞The Cure for Death by Lightning＜/strong＞ was "Canadian to the core," with hints of Susannah Moodie and Margaret Atwood and Alice Munro. Anderson-Dargatz’s vision of rural life has drawn comparisons with William Faulkner and John Steinbeck. A magic realism reminiscent of Latin American literature is also present, as flowers rain from the sky, and men turn into animals. Yet the style of ＜strong＞The Cure for Death by Lightning＜/strong＞, which the ＜em＞Boston Globe＜/em＞ called "Pacific Northwest Gothic," is wholly original. Launched in a year with more than the usual number of excellent first novels (1996 was also the year of ＜strong＞Fall On Your Knees＜/strong＞ by Ann-Marie MacDonald and ＜strong＞Fugitive Pieces＜/strong＞ by Anne Michaels), this book with its assured voice heralds a worthy successor to Margaret Atwood, Carol Shields, Margaret Laurence and Alice Munro.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】VAMPIRES FIRST BLOOD VOLUME II THE VAMPIRE LADIES【電子書籍】[ James Grant Goldin ]

＜p＞The literary evolution of the female vampire begins with the legendary LILITH...but is she a cursed monster, or a symbol of the rebellious, independent woman? While the male vampire has gone from monster to anti-hero to dream boyfriend, the path of his sister in blood has been more complex and mysterious. James Grant Goldin presents a curated anthology of the original texts, some freshly translated, that trace the evolution of the vampire lady through the end of the 19th century. In this anthology, there are, to be sure, monsters--VESPERTILIA of "A Mystery of the Campagna," ONEIZA of "Thalaba the Destroyer" and BRUNHILDE of "Wake Not The Dead"--but there are also vampire women in love, like CLARIMONDE, the airborne ALICE of Turgenev's "Phantoms," or the lesbian CARMILLA. There are vampires seeking justice or vengeance, like THE LADY BRIGHT. And there are characters like CLARA CROFTON or ALINSKA, who are both predators and victims. VAMPIRES: FIRST BLOOD VOLUME II - THE VAMPIRE LADIES collects the original adventures of the daughters of darkness who returned from the dead to pit their supernatural powers against the entrenched forces of patriarchy. This anthology comes complete with introductory notes and detailed glossaries to make these surprisingly contemporary stories come alive for a new generation＜/p＞ ＜p＞Lilith, from "The Alphabet of Ben Sira"＜/p＞ ＜p＞The Bride of Corinth, by Goethe＜/p＞ ＜p＞Oneiza, from Southey's "Thalaba the Destroyer"＜/p＞ ＜p＞Brunhilda, from Raupach's "Wake Not the Dead"＜/p＞ ＜p＞Alinska, from Lamothe-Langon's "The Vampire, or the Virgin of Hungary"＜/p＞ ＜p＞The Vampire Bride, by Liddell＜/p＞ ＜p＞Clarimonde, from Gautier's "The Dead in Love"＜/p＞ ＜p＞The Lady Bright, from Maxwell's "The Vampire"＜/p＞ ＜p＞Clara Crofton, from Rymer's "Varney the Vampyre"＜/p＞ ＜p＞Alice, from Turgenev's "Phantoms"＜/p＞ ＜p＞Vespertilia, from Crawford's "A Mystery of the Campagna" and Watson's "Vespertilia"＜/p＞ ＜p＞The Woman Who Did Not Care, from Kipling's "A Fool There Was"＜/p＞ ＜p＞Countess Dolingen, from Stoker's "Dracula's Guest"＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】Peter and Wendy - The Original Classic Edition【電子書籍】[ Barrie J ]

＜p＞Yes, there is darkness in Peter Pan - and in Alice, too, and in The Wizard of Oz - and certainly in Felix Saltons Bambi. These books, while written for young people, and which may be described as fantasy, have real plots and real characters who are not perfect. Peter Pan is selfish and stubborn as well as charming because children are not angels - they are little humans.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Alice is highly critical of the adults in her dream world - adults who act very arbitrarily and often foolishly, as adults often do. Bambi is about the effects of human cruelty on animals; it deals with death and pain. One of the indications that these are good books, and not merely childrens books, is that they can be read at different stages of life with new layers of understanding. You dont have to outgrow them, and they are better than many a book written for adults.＜/p＞ ＜p＞The real Pan and Alice and Bambi may not be suitable for the very youngest children, but please dont deprive your children culturally by never giving them anything but Disneys cutesy interpretations.＜/p＞ ＜p＞For one thing, Barrie was a great writer who used words beautifully and had insightand feeling. Children deserve art as much as adults.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Peter is a boy that refuses to grow up. He lives in Neverland with his fairy, Tinkerbell, and the Lost Boys. He visits the nursery of Wendy, Michael, and John Darling to hear Wendys marvelous stories, and one night loses that pesky shadow. When he comes back to get it and tries to stick it back on, Wendy discovers this new boy in their nursery and soon learns about his amazing lifestyle. Entranced by thoughts of pirates, mermaids, and fairies, Wendy, Michael, and John embark on an amazing adventure into a world so unlike ours.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Its bittersweet, its insightful, its magical, its everything and more a child or an adult could ask for in a story. You wont want to leave Neverland, and some days, you may find yourself staring out the window, looking for that hint of light that is Tinkerbell or the boy effortlessly flying between trees and buildings.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Without a doubt the greatest childrens story of all time, one that weve all heard, whether it was through a movie or a stage production. Experience the real magic though, and read Barries brilliant novel about the boy who wont grow up.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。
