Описание:
A National Book Award Finalist, Sarah Shun-lien Bynum's enchanting and inventive first novel is a groundbreaking, contemporary classic
When a girl falls into a mysterious, impenetrable sleep, the borders between her provincial French village and the peculiar, beguiling realm of her dreams begin to disappear: A fat woman sprouts delicate wings and takes flight; a failed photographer stumbles into the role of pornographer; a beautiful young wife grows to resemble her husband's viol. Madeleine, the dreamer, travels in their midst, trying to make sense of her own metamorphosis. She leaves home, joins a gypsy circus, and falls into an unexpected triangle of desire and love. Embracing the earthy and the ethereal, the comical and the poignant, Madeleine Is Sleeping is part fairy tale, part coming-of-age story, and above all, an adventure in the discovery of art, sexuality, community, and the self.

Описание: Considering the development and ongoing influence of Black thought
From 1900 to the present, people of African descent living in the United States have drawn on homegrown and diasporic minds to create a Black intellectual tradition engaged with ideas on race, racial oppression, and the world. This volume presents essays on the diverse thought behind the fight for racial justice as developed by African American artists and intellectuals; performers and protest activists; institutions and organizations; and educators and religious leaders. By including both women’s and men’s perspectives from the U.S. and the Diaspora, the essays explore the full landscape of the Black intellectual tradition. Throughout, contributors engage with important ideas ranging from the consideration of gender within the tradition, to intellectual products generated outside the intelligentsia, to the ongoing relationship between thought and concrete effort in the quest for liberation.
Expansive in scope and interdisciplinary in practice, The Black Intellectual Tradition delves into the ideas that animated a people’s striving for full participation in American life.

Описание:
The will to survive, one of our most important traits, is the core theme of "No, It's Not A Shelter," the book that arose from Anthony Bynum's study of the underclass and the economic decisions that make for survival. This is the fictionalized account of "The Underground Economy," the 2016 book Bynum wrote that chronicled his observations about this fluid subset of Americans, where he reported on the issues surrounding their underclass status and did analysis regarding his observations on how individuals not fully integrated into our economy survive. These groups include the homeless, gang members, and undocumented immigrants. He took what he learned from the project and fictionalized it in "No, It's Not A Shelter."
The story focuses on our heroine, Cynthia, and a somewhat odd relationship she forms with our other featured character, Vincent. They share a symbiotic relationship. The other characters represent Corporate America, complicated bad guys, and interested family members.
The theme of life for the disaffected is never far from the surface.
About the Author
Anthony Bynum considers himself a study of life's hard knocks. In other words, he's tried a number of different things and hasn't always been successful. He tempers his ambitions with the importance of his family's survival. Based on this philosophy, he's been able to work two careers, the first in the insurance business working in the claims side of automobile accidents as adjuster, supervisor, and eventually field investigator. He also spent twenty years in the Maryland National Guard. He was able to serve with many fine men and women. This allowed him to travel to a number of different countries, but it mostly allowed him to travel to A. P. Hill in Virginia. Bynum has a tremendous love for his country, but at the time of his enlistment, his desire was economic survival. He needed the work. He recently began a new professional career in banking.
Bynum and his wife of twenty-nine years, Lori, are fortunate to have two young adult sons, Anton and Andre, who are in the beginnings of their careers.

From an acclaimed historian, a mesmerizing account of how medieval European Christians envisioned the paradoxical nature of holy objects
Between the twelfth and the sixteenth centuries, European Christians used in worship a plethora of objects, not only prayer books, statues, and paintings but also pieces of natural materials, such as stones and earth, considered to carry holiness, dolls representing Jesus and Mary, and even bits of consecrated bread and wine thought to be miraculously preserved flesh and blood. Theologians and ordinary worshippers alike explained, utilized, justified, and warned against some of these objects, which could carry with them both anti-Semitic charges and the glorious promise of heaven. Their proliferation and the reaction against them form a crucial background to the European-wide movements we know today as "reformations" (both Protestant and Catholic).
In a set of independent but inter-related essays, Caroline Bynum considers some examples of such holy things, among them beds for the baby Jesus, the headdresses of medieval nuns, and the footprints of Christ carried home from the Holy Land by pilgrims in patterns cut to their shape or their measurement in lengths of string. Building on and going beyond her well-received work on the history of materiality, Bynum makes two arguments, one substantive, the other methodological. First, she demonstrates that the objects themselves communicate a paradox of dissimilar similitude--that is, that in their very details they both image the glory of heaven and make clear that that heaven is beyond any representation in earthly things. Second, she uses the theme of likeness and unlikeness to interrogate current practices of comparative history. Suggesting that contemporary students of religion, art, and culture should avoid comparing things that merely "look alike," she proposes that humanists turn instead to comparing across cultures the disparate and perhaps visually dissimilar objects in which worshippers as well as theorists locate the "other" that gives their religion enduring power.
Описание: Abstract: This disseration extends the rational voter model to include a measure of personal freedom which captures certain motivations not previously accounted for in prior empirical studies of voter turnout in U.S. presidential elections. Fixed-effects estimations of a panel data set of publicly available data reflecting explanatory variables for the 50 states for the presidential election years 2000, 2004, 2008, 2012, and 2016 suggest that this previously unaccounted for variable, personal freedom (PERSONAL-F), may exercise a negative and statistically significant influence on the expected benefits of voting and hence a negative and statistically significant impact on the voter participation rate. State-level empirical evidence is presented to support the hypothesis that, after allowing for a variey of other factors, greater personal freedom decreases voter participation, ceteris paribus.
