Описание:
This collection of scores is based on The Resounding Project'sfirst album, Music of the High Medieval Era Performed on Period Instruments. The Resounding Project researches and reconstructs early musical instruments and uses them to recreate authentic early music. The work uses the period instruments of the 11th-13th Centuries to perform fifteen songs from that time. Scores in this book are illustrated with sketches of these unique instruments. The songs sample five regions of Medieval Europe and include pieces by Alfonso X, Aquinas, Codax, Machaut, and others.
These tunes were chosen as examples of medieval music in general. Although we do not know every detail about the music of this period, the songs represent an aggregation of the most reliable sources available. Accompaniments and chord symbols have been created for most tunes, with consideration of the likely instrumentation and styles of the time. The songs are well-suited for solos or ensembles in a variety of instrumentations.
Are you waiting for life to be comfortable, risk free, safe secure and certain? You are putting faith in your own effort, abilities, and determination. Life is messy, it's a challange at best. We must continue to change our thinking and beliefs in order to grow into integrity, character, and development towards wholeness.

Описание: For Canadians, the War of 1812 has held various meanings at different times. In the immediate aftermath, alongside the "Loyalist" narrative of fleeing from the defeat of the British at the hands of American rebels, the war was regarded as redemptive for those still loyal to British North America. From the American perspective, it is merely one in a host of small-scale wars in North America, and the events of 1812a1815 are mostly forgotten in the collective memory of the United States. The authors of 1812: A Guide to the War and Its Legacy believe that the War of 1812 was an important event in North American history with lasting consequences for Canadians, Americans, and First Nations. This guidebook, published by the Laurier Centre for Military Strategic and Disarmament Studies, uses modern satellite images, archival records, paintings, and contemporary photographs to help readers understand what happened during the war and why it happened that way. The book includes a historical section that seeks to place events in their strategic, operational, and human context. A tour section is designed to introduce and guide readers to key locations of war and memory and offer an explanation of the fluid memory that has evolved over the last two hundred years. The War of 1812 has been forgotten, reimagined, and invented anew many times, and the itineraries of the guide illustrate that ever-changing process of commemoration.

Описание:
Carey McWilliams's North From Mexico, first published in 1948, is a classic survey of Chicano history. Now fully updated by Alma M. Garcia to cover the period from 1990 to the present, McWilliams's quintessential book explores all aspects of Chicano/a experiences in the United States, including employment, family, immigration policy, language issues, and other cultural, political, and social issues. The volume builds on the landmark work and also provides relevant up-to-date content to the 1990 edition revised by Matt S. Meier, which added coverage of the key period in Chicano history from the postwar period through to the late 1980s.
As the largest group of immigrants in the United States, representing more than a quarter of foreign-born individuals in the United States, Mexican immigrants have had and will continue to have a tremendous impact on the culture and society of the United States as a whole. This freshly updated edition of North from Mexico addresses the changing demographic trends within Mexican immigrant communities and their implications for the country; analyzes key immigration policies such as the Immigration Act of 1990 and California's Proposition 187, with specific emphasis on the political mobilization that has developed within Mexican American immigrant communities; and describes the development of immigration reform as well as community organizations and electoral politics.
The book contains new chapters that examine recent trends in Mexican immigration to the United States and identify the impact on politics and society of Mexican immigrants and later generations of U.S.-born Mexican Americans. The appendices provide readers and researchers with current immigration figures and information regarding today's socieconomic conditions for Mexican Americans.
