Out of My Great Sorrows The Armenian Genocide and Artist Mary Zakarian

Out of My Great Sorrows is the story of Philadelphia artist Mary Zakarian whose life and work were shaped by the experiences of her mother a survivor of the 1915 Armenian Genocide. Written by Mary Zakarian's niece and nephew the narrative examines the complexities of the artist's life as they relate to many issues including ethnicity gender immigration and assimilation. Above all this is a story of trauma - its effects on the survivor its transmission through the generations and its role in the artistic experience. Zakarian painted obsessively throughout her life. As she gained recognition for her artwork she became increasingly haunted by her mother's untold story and was driven to express the tragedy of the Armenian Genocide in her art. Zakarian's attempt to deal openly with the issues of trauma and guilt caused conflicts in her relationship with her mother. These emotions became a driving force behind her art as well as the basis for her personal difficulties. By examining Mary Zakarian's life and art the authors bring new insights to the study of the Armenian experience. This moving story will inspire all those who have struggled to express themselves in the face of injustice and oppression. | Out of My Great Sorrows The Armenian Genocide and Artist Mary Zakarian

Medical Anthropology in Europe Shaping the Field

Medical Anthropology in Europe Shaping the Field

This collection brings together three generations of medical anthropologists working at European universities to reflect on past current and future directions of the field. Medical anthropology emerged on an international playing ground and while other recently compiled anthologies emphasize North American developments this volume highlights substantial ethnographic and theoretical studies undertaken in Europe. The first four chapters trace the beginnings of medical anthropology back into the two formative decades between the 1950s-1970s in Italy German-speaking Europe the Netherlands France and the UK supported by four brief vignettes on current developments. Three core themes that emerged within this field in Europe – the practice of care the body politic and psycho-sensorial dimensions of healing – are first presented in synopsis and then separately discussed by three leading medical anthropologists Susan Whyte Giovanni Pizza and René Devisch complemented by the work of three early career researchers. The chapters aim to highlight how very diverse (and sometimes overlooked) European developments within this rapidly growing field have been and continue to be. This book will spur reflection on medical anthropology’s potential for future scholarship and practice by students and established scholars alike. This book was originally published as a special issue of Anthropology and Medicine. | Medical Anthropology in Europe Shaping the Field

Verbal Deficit A Critique

Verbal Deficit A Critique

Originally published in 1981. Verbal deficit theories try to account for differential educational attainments in linguistic terms suggesting that children reach varying levels of success in school as a result of their ability or inability to express themselves and relate this to social class. This critique considers such theories especially in the form propounded by Bernstein primarily from a sociolinguistic viewpoint but with special attention to the historical and educational context behind the theories. It claims that verbal deficit theories are not only unscientific and non-linguistic but are educationally damaging as well and proposes instead a linguistic ‘difference’ theory. | Verbal Deficit A Critique

Routledge Revivals: Mark Twain as a Literary Comedian (1979)

Routledge Revivals: Mark Twain as a Literary Comedian (1979)

Originally published in 1979 Mark Twain as a Literary Comedian looks at how Mark Twain addressed social issues through humour. The Southwest provided the subject for much of Twain’s writing but the roots of his style lay principally in north-eastern humour. In the mid-1800s the northern United States underwent social changes that reflected in the writing of the literary humourists like Twain. Sloane argues that he used humour to describe conditions in the emerging middle-class urban experience and express his American vision and that Twain’s views on the human social and political conditions presented through his fictional characters elevated the use of literary humour in the American novel. | Routledge Revivals: Mark Twain as a Literary Comedian (1979)

Forensic Storytelling and the Literary Roots of Early Modern Feminism ReSisters

Forensic Storytelling and the Literary Roots of Early Modern Feminism ReSisters

The writing of letters and the rise of the novel provided a way for some women to express themselves at a time when the all-male French Academy defined the very parameters of French literary acceptability and tradition. Women who were consigned to convents workhouses or prisons were in most respects deprived of agency yet many found ways to respond to the legal documents served against them. The letters and associated materials preserved in their legal files provide evidence that these women did not remain quiet as they found means to resist authority. The forensic storytelling examined in this book supports the conclusion that the documents written in these constrained circumstances have both historical and literary merit and form the core of an understudied genre of literature. | Forensic Storytelling and the Literary Roots of Early Modern Feminism ReSisters

Cultural Chauvinism Intercultural Communication and the Politics of Superiority

Cultural Chauvinism Intercultural Communication and the Politics of Superiority

This book explores the concept of cultural chauvinism as the sense of superiority that ethnic or national groups have of themselves relative to others particularly in the context of international relations. Minabere Ibelema shows the various ways that academics statesmen and especially journalists express their cultural groups’ sense of superiority over others. The analysis pivots around the notion of “Western values” given its centrality in international relations and diplomacy. To the West this stands for an array of largely positive political and civic values; to a significant portion of the global community it embodies degeneracies. Ibelema argues that often the most routine expressions go under the radar even in this age of hypersensitivity. This book throws a unique light on global relations and will be of particular interest to scholars in international relations communication studies and journalism studies. | Cultural Chauvinism Intercultural Communication and the Politics of Superiority

Faith-Based Organizations in Development Discourses and Practice

Faith-Based Organizations in Development Discourses and Practice

Exploring faith-based organizations (FBOs) in current developmental discourses and practice this book presents a selection of empirical in-depth case-studies of Christian FBOs and assesses the vital role credited to FBOs in current discourses on development. Examining the engagement of FBOs with contemporary politics of development the contributions stress the agency of FBOs in diverse contexts of development policy both local and global. It is emphasised that FBOs constitute boundary agents and developmental entrepreneurs: they move between different discursive fields such as national and international development discourses theological discourses and their specific religious constituencies. By combining influxes from these different contexts FBOs generate unique perspectives on development: they express alternative views on development and stress particular approaches anchored in their theological social ethics. This book should be of interest to those researching FBOs and their interaction with international organizations and to scholars working in the broader areas of religion and politics and politics and development. | Faith-Based Organizations in Development Discourses and Practice
