Three Way Tavern Selected Poems

14ce4bd3dd4c0807e8ba56f4debaf1f0.webp

Three Way Tavern: Selected Poems By Un Ko; Clare You; Richard Silberg; Gary Snyder (editors)
2006 | 184 Pages | ISBN: 0520246136 | PDF | 1 MB
Ko Un, the preeminent Korean poet of the twentieth century, embraces Buddhism with the versatility of a master Taoist sage. A beloved cultural figure who has helped shape contemporary Korean literature, Ko Un is also a novelist, literary critic, ex-monk, former dissident, and four-time political prisoner. His verse-vivid, unsettling, down-to-earth, and deeply moving-ranges from the short lyric to the vast epic and draws from a poetic reservoir filled with memories and experiences ranging over seventy years of South Korea's tumultuous history from the Japanese occupation to the Korean war to democracy. This collection, an essential sampling of his poems from the last decade of the twentieth century, offers in deft translation, as lively and demotic as the original, the off-beat humor, mystery, and mythic power of his work for a wide audience of English-speaking readers. It showcases the work of a man whom Allen Ginsberg has called "a magnificent poet, a combination of Buddhist cognoscente, passionate political libertarian, and naturalist historian," who Gary Snyder has said is "a real-world poet!" who "outfoxes the Old Masters and the young poets both," and who Lawrence Ferlinghetti has described as "no doubt the greatest living Korean Zen poet today."

Three Women and the Lord By Adrienne von Speyr
2020 | 126 Pages | ISBN: 162164359X | EPUB | 1 MB
Three Women and the Lord presents three key figures in Saint Luke's Gospel: Mary Magdalen, the unnamed woman who washed the feet of Jesus with her tears, and Mary of Bethany.As Adrienne von Speyr meditates on the Gospel passages about these three women, she explores the particular, personal mission that the Lord gave each one and links it with one of the three theological virtues: faith, hope, and love.Through the stories of these women, von Speyr demonstrates that every person who encounters Jesus and receives his mercy is changed by him and given a unique way to reveal his identity as Savior and Lord.

Three-Quarters of a Footprint Travels in South India (Eland Classics)

Three-Quarters of a Footprint: Travels in South India (Eland Classics) by Joe Roberts
English | January 2, 2025 | ISBN: 1780602197 | True EPUB | 352 pages | 0.7 MB
Chronicles his journey through southern India, capturing vibrant encounters, personal growth, and a deepening bond with the Trivedi family.

Joe Roberts stayed for five months with the Trivedi family in Bangalore, while traveling all over southern India. In Pondicherry he found Rita, a melancholic divorcee banished to an ashram. He saw the great temple at Madurai, watched the snakeboat races at Arunmala, stayed with Syriac Christians at Cochin and was offered heroin in the Jewish cemetery. Wherever he went he met extraordinary people, but these encounters take second place to his ripening friendship with the Trivedi family, and his exact chronicling of their neighbors. As Major Trivedi warned him 'nothing is as fixed as you think'. Three Quarters of a Footprint has long fascinated readers with its gentle, perceptive humor, chilled occasionally by a shadow of menace, as if the spirit and wit of R K Narayan had been reborn in an Englishman.

Through the Eyes of a Dancer: Selected Writings (Wesleyan Dance) by Wendy Perron
English | November 5, 2013 | ISBN: 0819574074 | True EPUB | 372 pages | 3.6 MB
A compilation of the writings of dance critic and editor Wendy Perron, from the 1960s to the present.

Through the Eyes of a Dancer compiles the writings of noted dance critic and editor Wendy Perron. In pieces for The SoHo Weekly News, Village Voice, The New York Times, and Dance Magazine, Perron limns the larger aesthetic and theoretical shifts in the dance world since the 1960s. She surveys a wide range of styles and genres, from downtown experimental performance to ballets at the Metropolitan Opera House. In opinion pieces, interviews, reviews, brief memoirs, blog posts, and contemplations on the choreographic process, she gives readers an up-close, personalized look at dancing as an art form. Dancers, choreographers, teachers, college dance students―and anyone interested in the intersection between dance and journalism―will find Perron's probing and insightful writings inspiring.
Through the Eyes of a Dancer is a nuanced microcosm of dance's recent globalization and modernization that also provides an opportunity for new dancers to look back on the traditions and styles that preceded their own.

Thursday Mornings Breathe, Stretch, Listen, Love

9ea521b4b0ecc82df6fc943240b25173.webp

Ruth Mannino, "Thursday Mornings: Breathe, Stretch, Listen, Love"
English | ISBN: 1098321707 | 2020 | 174 pages | EPUB | 2 MB
Through a dichotomy of life experiences, the author presents an account that is part history lesson and part love story with loss and redemption headlining the interviews. Readers will discover what it was like to have front row seats to World War II; how it felt when communism took over land once called home; the feeling of wonder experienced by a young child upon seeing the Statue of Liberty after enduring a long Atlantic voyage; what it was like to be an integral part of civil rights activism of the 1960s; how it felt to be gay before the LGBTQ movement; what it was like to lose loved ones and continue to live when all life's enjoyment left with them. And lastly, how they confront the myriad of physical complications that inevitably come with aging. The reader will meet people who are vulnerable, yet proud; fragile in body but indomitable in spirit. People who were willing to let down their guard and agree to candid story telling. In turns funny, wistful, tragic, and hopeful, this book is a testament to the power of faith, optimism, purpose, and love.

Time and Chronology in Creation Narratives

Fiona Mitchell, "Time and Chronology in Creation Narratives "
English | ISBN: 0367481669 | 2024 | 158 pages | EPUB | 4 MB
This book explores the ways in which the origins of time, of the gods, and processes associated with time were conceptualised in antiquity, examining a variety of ancient sources from across the ancient world and addressing issues surrounding the sources themselves.

Time is a key framework through which we understand the world around us. Shared structures to measure the passage of time reveal certain cultural and societal values, while time's less concrete forms are evident across art and literature. This volume examines how the tangible and intangible, direct and complex representations of time are used in ancient sources. The chapters in this book are written by scholars whose work focuses on India, Assyria, Greece, and Rome. Their analyses explore poetic and mythological narratives, philosophical discourse, and representations of the divine, allowing us to see how ideas about time and chronology reveal various cultural understandings of our world. Accessibly written, this volume enables scholars from a variety of disciplines to engage effectively with each chapter.

Time Crown of Eternity

2a5ad1e2f674d9b7609e679e4833fc8a.webp

Telosbound Institute, "Time: Crown of Eternity"
English | ASIN : B0DHW9RDVX | 2024 | 130 pages | EPUB | 409 KB
Time: Crown of Eternity is a theological treatise covering topics such as the relationship between divine transcendence and immanence, the phenomenology of time, and the eschatological implications of God's actions in history. Drawing heavily on the writings of St. Dumitru Stăniloae, the Telosbound Institute presents time as intrinsic to creaturely existence, marked by incompletion and, when misused, fragmentation. Yet, through communion with God, time is seen not as a barrier but as a medium through which humanity can enter into divine eternity.

This work provides readers with a rich, scholarly engagement with Biblical, patristic, and modern theology with the goal of articulating a profoundly Trinitarian and Christological ontology of time and eternity. Ideal for theologians, philosophers, and those seeking a deeper understanding of the spiritual and philosophical dimensions of our sojourn in time, this book offers a comprehensive and contemplative journey into the divine mystery that governs both time and eternity.

Time Frames Japanese Cinema and the Unfolding of History

be3cace502f048467d131d58a0c91930.webp

Time Frames: Japanese Cinema and the Unfolding of History by Scott Nygren
English | March 14, 2007 | ISBN: 0816647070, 0816647089 | True PDF | 297 pages | 11.9 MB
Until 1951, when Kurosawa's Rashomon won the Golden Lion award for best film at the Venice Film Festival, Japanese cinema was isolated from world distribution and the international discourse on film. After this historic event, however, Japanese cinema could no longer be ignored.

In Time Frames, Scott Nygren explores how Japanese film criticism and history has been written both within and beyond Japan, before and after Rashomon. He takes up the central question of which, and whose, Japan do critics and historians mean when reviewing the country's cinema-an issue complicated by assumptions about cultural purity, Japan's appropriation of Western ideas and technologies, and the very existence of a West and an Orientalist non-West.
Deftly moving backward and forward from the pivotal 1951 festival, Nygren traces the invention of Japanese film history as a disciplinary mode of knowledge. His analysis includes such topics as the reconfiguration of prewar films in light of postwar recognition, the application of psychoanalytic theory to Japanese art and culture, and the intersection of kanji and cinema. He considers the historical inscription of 1950s Japan as "the golden age of the humanist film," the identification of a Japanese New Wave and the implications of categorizing Japanese film through analogy to other national cinemas. Bringing the discussion to Japan's reception of postmodernism, Nygren looks at the emergence of video art and anime and the end of Japanese film history as a meaningful concept in the rise of the Internet and globalization.
Nygren highlights the creative exchange among North American, European, and Asian media, places Japanese film at the center of this discourse, and, ultimately, reveals its global role as a cultural medium, capable of transforming theory.

Time-encoding VCO-ADCs for Integrated Systems-on-Chip: Principles, Architectures and Circuits by Georges Gielen , Luis Hernandez-Corporales , Pieter Rombouts
English | EPUB (True) | 2022 | 118 Pages | ISBN : 3030880664 | 22.6 MB
This book demonstrates why highly-digital CMOS time-encoding analog-to-digital converters incorporating voltage-controlled oscillators (VCOs) and time-to-digital converters (TDCs) are a good alternative to traditional switched-capacitor S-D modulators for power-efficient sensor, biomedical and communications applications. The authors describe the theoretical foundations and design methodology of such time-based ADCs from the basics to the latest developments. While most analog designers might notice some resemblance to PLL design, the book clearly highlights the differences to standard PLL circuit design and illustrates the design methodology with practical circuit design examples.

Describes in detail the design methodology for CMOS time-encoding analog-to-digital converters that can be integrated along with digital logic in a nanometer System on Chip;
Assists analog designers with the necessary change in design paradigm, highlighting differences between designing time-based ADCs and traditional analog circuits like switched-capacitor converters and PLLs;
Uses a highly-visual, tutorial approach to the topic, including many practical examples of techniques introduced.

Timebound Traveler: How My Journey as a Seeker Came to an End By David Newman
2017 | 124 Pages | ISBN: 1908664428 | EPUB | 1 MB
Direct realization versus love and devotion for God with form-are these two paths mutually exclusive? David Newman (Durga Das) tells of an unexpected inner journey that led him to ask himself: Was I leaving my devotional path behind, or was the pursuit of a conclusive spiritual awakening the very revelation that the path itself had indicated? David's journey started with what he calls a "lightning bolt", which led him to question his own identity. With heart-warming honesty, he relates how the integration of the two paths came about through unwavering grace. "What I was initially most afraid of ultimately brought the greatest gift".

Times Beach (Notre Dame Review Book Prize) By John Shoptaw
2015 | 144 Pages | ISBN: 0268017859 | PDF | 1 MB
Winner of the Notre Dame Review Book Prize, this ambitious collection of poems evokes the cultural and environmental history of the Mississippi watershed and meditates on how its rivers are ceaselessly shaping, and shaped by, the lives around them. John Shoptaw guides us from the Mississippi's headwaters in Lake Itasca to its delta in the Gulf of Mexico, weaving together episodes in the life of the river system―the New Madrid earthquakes, the 1927 flood, the EPA's eradication of the dioxin-laced town of Times Beach―with his own memories of growing up in the Missouri Bootheel: picking cotton, being baptized in a drainage ditch, and working in a lumber mill. Formally renovative, the poems in Times Beach ring the changes on the big muddy place and hymn its everlasting possibilities.

To Save the Man A Novel

To Save the Man: A Novel by John Sayles
English | January 21, 2025 | ISBN: 1685891411 | True EPUB | 336 pages | 1 MB
In the vein of Never Let Me Go and Killers of the Flower Moon, one of America's greatest storytellers sheds light on an American tragedy: the Wounded Knee Massacre, and the 'cultural genocide' experienced by the Native American children at the Carlisle Indian Industrial School . . .

In September of 1890, the academic year begins at the Carlisle School, a military-style boarding school for Indians in Pennsylvania, founded and run by Captain Richard Henry Pratt. Pratt considers himself a champion of Native Americans. His motto, "To save the man, we must kill the Indian," is severely enforced in both classroom and dormitory: Speak only English, forget your own language and customs, learn to be white.
As the young students navigate surviving the school, they begin to hear rumors of a "ghost dance" amongst the tribes of the west-a ceremonial dance aimed at restoring the Native People to power, and running the invaders off their land. As the hope and promise of the ghost dance sweeps across the Great Plains, cynical newspapers seize upon the story to whip up panic among local whites. The US government responds by deploying troops onto lands that had been granted to the Indians. It is an act that seems certain to end in slaughter.
As news of these developments reaches Carlisle, each student, no matter what their tribe, must make a choice: to follow the white man's path, or be true to their own way of life . . .

Often referred to as the 'Oil Century,' the twentieth century marked the rise of petroleum as a pivotal force in global economics and politics. While many studies have explored the political relations between oil corporations and the Iranian state, this innovative book builds an intricate picture of the social history of petroleum in Iran, after its discovery there in 1908. Through expert interviews and on-the-ground reports, Touraj Atabaki shows the seismic impact of oil: from the building of roads to an influx of migrant labour. Offering insights into the lives and challenges of oil workers alongside analysis of wider geopolitical conflicts, Toiling for Oil traverses two world wars, industrialisation and modernisation, attempts at nationalisation in the 1950s and the political crises of the late 1970s. An essential read for anyone interested in Iran's unique position in the global economic landscape as oil continues to shape our world.

Tolkien among the Moderns

Tolkien among the Moderns By Ralph C. Wood
2015 | 312 Pages | ISBN: 0268096740 | EPUB | 1 MB
It has long been recognized that J. R. R. Tolkien's work is animated by a profound moral and religious vision. It is less clear that Tolkien's vision confronts the leading philosophical and literary concerns addressed by modern writers and thinkers. This book seeks to resolve such uncertainty. It places modern writers and modern quandaries in lively engagement with the broad range of Tolkien's work, while giving special attention to the textual particularities of his masterpiece, The Lord of the Rings. In ways at once provocative and original, the contributors deal with major modern artists and philosophers, including Miguel de Cervantes, Friedrich Nietzsche, Emmanuel Levinas, Iris Murdoch, and James Joyce. The essays in Tolkien among the Moderns also point forward to postmodernism by examining its implications for Tolkien's work. Looking backward, they show how Tolkien addresses two ancient questions: the problems of fate and freedom in a seemingly random universe, as well as Plato's objection that art can neither depict truth nor underwrite morality. The volume is premised on the firm conviction that Tolkien is not a writer who will be soon surpassed and forgotten-exactly because he has a permanent dwelling place "among the moderns."

Too Soon: A Novel by Betty Shamieh
English | January 28, 2025 | ISBN: 1668046547 | True EPUB | 336 pages | 3.2 MB
"A Palestinian American Sex and the City." -The Atlantic * "Wonderfully brash and sparkling...This book fills in gaps in our understanding." -Oprah Daily * "Shamieh balances her characters' painful family history and their boisterously funny voices." -New Yorker

A funny, sexy, and heart-wrenching literary debut that explores exile, ambition, and hope across three generations of Palestinian American women.
Arabella gets an unexpected chance at love when she's thrust into a conflict and history she's tried to avoid all her life.
Zoya is playing matchmaker for her last unmarried granddaughter and stirring up buried memories.
Naya is keeping a secret from her children that will change all their lives.
Thirty-five-year-old Arabella, a New York theatre director whose dating and career prospects are drying up, is offered an opportunity to direct a risqué cross-dressing interpretation of a Shakespeare classic-that might garner international attention-in the West Bank. Her mother, Naya, and grandmother, Zoya, hatch a Description to match her with Aziz, a Palestinian American doctor volunteering in Gaza. Arabella agrees to meet Aziz, since her growing feelings for Yoav, a celebrated Israeli American theatre designer, seem destined for disaster...
With biting hilarity, Too Soon introduces us to a trio of bold and unforgettable voices. This dramatic saga follows one family's epic journey fleeing war-torn Jaffa in 1948, chasing the American Dream in Detroit and San Francisco in the sixties and seventies, hustling in the New York theatre scene post-9/11, and daring to stage a show in Palestine in 2012. Upon learning one of them is living on borrowed time, the three women fight to live, make art, and love on their own terms. A funny, sexy, and heart-wrenching literary debut, Too Soon illuminates our shared history and asks, how can we set ourselves free?
