Описание:

Over the last several decades, life in Lahore has been undergoing profound transformations, from rapid and uneven urbanization to expanding state institutions and informal economies. What do these transformations look like if viewed from the lens of waste materials and the lives of those who toil with them? In Lahore, like in many parts of Pakistan and South Asia, waste workers—whether municipal employees or informal laborers—are drawn from low- or noncaste (Dalit) groups and dispose the collective refuse of the citys 11 million inhabitants. Bringing workers into contact with potentially polluting materials reinforces their stigmatization and marginalization, and yet, their work allows life to go on across Lahore and beyond. This historical and ethnographic account examines how waste work has been central to organizing and transforming the city of Lahore—its landscape, infrastructures, and life—across historical moments, from the colonial period to the present.

Building upon conversations about changing configurations of work and labor under capitalism, and utilizing a theoretical framework of reproduction, Waqas H. Butt traces how forms of life in Punjab, organized around caste-based relations, have become embedded in infrastructures across Pakistan, making them crucial to numerous processes unfolding at distinct scales. Life Beyond Waste maintains that processes reproducing life in a city like Lahore must be critically assessed along the lines of caste, class, and religion, which have been constitutive features of urbanization across South Asia.

Описание: A master of the mysterious, Edward Goreys artworks and writings abound with misadventures, oddities, and oblique humor. His forays into experimental theater follow suit, and to much delight, he designed pin-back buttons to accompany them. Now coveted by collectors, these bespoke buttonscreated as souvenirs for the plays, puppet shows, revues, and other entertainments that Gorey wrote, designed, or directedpossess a curiosity factor disproportionate to their small size.Flapping Ankles,Inverted Commas, orTinned Lettuce? Such buttons and the shows they were based on offer send-ups of staid conventions idiosyncratic napkin

Описание: "A photo is usually looked at - seldom looked into," said Ansel Adams. Well, this exclusive photo project lets you take a long, hard look into it. Presented in a high quality horizontal book format, finished with a fetching slipcase, different photographers have taken 300 n: u: d: e pictures of the most sexy girls, and then inserted the respective front and rear view on each double page. The result? A beautiful e: r: o: t: i: c art collection, which shows the two most beautiful sides of women unabashed and uncensored: the p: u: s: s: y and the b: u: t: t. Oh, and if we are in the process of throwing quotes around, let us end with the wisdom of photographer Rinnhofer: "A nude photo is good then, when the model shows it at the grandmother's birthday at the coffee table and those present find it good". Although we would definitely advise against it in this case

The first anthology of its kind to appear in English, Modern Poetry of Pakistan brings together not one but many poetic traditions indigenous to Pakistan, with 142 poems translated from seven major languages, six of them regional (Baluchi, Kashmiri, Panjabi, Pashto, Seraiki, and Sindhi) and one national (Urdu). Collecting the work of forty-two poets and fifteen translators, this book reveals a society riven by ethnic, class, and political differences--but also a beautiful and truly national literature, with work both classical and modern, belonging to the same culture and sharing many of the same concerns and perceptions.
