Описание: Aromatherapy has been used for centuries to bring forth emotions, memories, and visions. Essential oils are a powerful connector to the natural world and have become mainstream over the last few decades, with little recognition given to the potential inward healing that comes from their use. Through Connecting with Nature, first-time author, Nancy Zick, offers readers the opportunity to deepen their spiritual connection to their Creator. She shares her personal experiences of using essential oils to support her journey of healing from the inside out. She provides suggestions on how to use the essence of nature to enhance your meditation practice and she guides you inward through thought-provoking questions to help you release potential obstacles. Ultimately, inner guidance is available to everyone and Nancy aspires to share that message with her readers. Her use of aromatherapy over the last thirty years has impacted her life profoundly and she passionately shares her experiences in hopes that they will help readers unlock their healing journey and bring them back to their true connection to their Creator.

Описание: What makes hundreds of listeners cheer ecstatically at the same instant during a live concert by Egyptian diva Umm Kulthum? What is the unspoken language behind a taqsim (traditional instrumental improvisation) that performers and listeners implicitly know? How can Arabic music be so rich and diverse without resorting to harmony? Why is it so challenging to transcribe Arabic music from a recording? Inside Arabic Music answers these and many other questions from the perspective of two "insiders" to the practice of Arabic music, by documenting a performance culture and a know-how that is largely passed on orally. Arabic music has spread across the globe, influencing music from Greece all the way to India in the mid-20th century through radio and musical cinema, and global popular culture through Raqs Sharqi, known as "Bellydance" in the West. Yet despite its popularity and influence, Arabic music, and the maqam scale system at its heart, remain widely misunderstood. Inside Arabic Music de-mystifies maqam with an approach that draws theory directly from practice, and presents theoretical insights that will be useful to practitioners, from the beginner to the expert - as well as those interested in the related Persian, Central Asian, and Turkish makam traditions. Inside Arabic Music's discussion of maqam and improvisation widens general understanding of music as well, by bringing in ideas from Saussurean linguistics, network theory, and Lakoff and Johnson's theory of cognition as metaphor, with an approach parallel to Gjerdingen's analysis of Galant-period music - offering a lens into the deeper relationships among music, culture, and human community.

Описание:
The thinkers and activists who appear in Totality Inside Out reject this divisive logic altogether. Instead, they aim for a more expansive analysis of our contemporary moment to uncover connected sites of political struggle over racial and economic justice, materialist feminist and queer critique, climate change, and aesthetic value. The reimagined account of capitalist totality that appears in this volume illuminates the material interlinkages between discrepant social phenomena, forms of oppression, and group histories, offering multiple entry points for readers who are interested in exploring how capitalism shapes integral relations within the social whole.

Описание: "Literature has no greater champion than J. Hillis Miller: throughout his long career he has engaged with literary works in all genres from many periods, always with an eye to what makes them both challenging and rewarding, and in doing so he has drawn on the best of the theoretical movements of the past half-century. But his literary studies are only part of a wider concern with the values of institutions and of society more broadly. Covering all these aspects of Miller's achievements, this excellent collection of interviews shows him at his searching, wise, and readable best."--Prof. Derek Attridge, U. of York; Fellow, British Academy *** "Radical, raconteur, reader extraordinaire: so many J. Hillis Millers to enjoy and learn from across many years of his conversations with interested interlocutors. There's a provocative charm on every page of these interviews, but the changing questions and preoccupations also add up to a rich and lucid history of literary and critical thinking over the past half century."--Prof. Rachel Bowlby, U. College London; Fellow, British Academy *** This collection brings together eleven interviews with J. Hillis Miller, from 1987 to 2014, conducted by distinguished scholars and critics from China, England, Ireland, and the United States. The volume offers the readers a rich gallery of representations and interventions occasioned by a critic whose intellectual and moral presence has been instrumental in the dynamic (re)definitions of the discipline of literary studies for the past five decades. The interviews cover both his life and the development of his thought in poetics and pedagogics, in ethics, and politics as well. Reading Inside Out is the perfect companion to Miller's many books, a lucid introduction to his thought, and a comprehensive commentary on Miller's critical themes.

Описание: In this book Kurt Buhring explores concepts of spirit(s) within various Black religions as a means to make a constructive theological contribution to contemporary Black theology in regard to ideas of the Holy Spirit, or pneumatology. He argues that there are rich resources within African and African-based religions to develop a more robust notion of the Holy Spirit for contemporary Black liberation theology. In so doing, Buhring offers a pneumatology that understands divine power and presence within humanity and through human action. The theology offered maintains the fundamental claim that God acts as liberator of the oppressed, while also calling for greater human responsibility and capability for bringing about liberation.

Описание:
Discover the complex work and personal experiences of women in the exotic dancing industry What kind of woman dances naked for money? Bernadette Barton takes us inside countless strip bars and clubs, from upscale to back road as well as those that specialize in lapdancing, table dancing, topless only, or peep shows, to reveal the startling lives of exotic dancers. Based on over five years of research and from visiting clubs around the country, particularly in San Francisco, Hawaii, and Kentucky, Stripped offers a rare portrait of not just how dancers get into the business but what it's like for those who choose to strip year after year. Through captivating interviews and first-hand observation, Barton recounts why these women began stripping, the initial excitement and financial rewards from the work, the dangers of the life—namely, drugs and prostitution—and, inevitably, the difficulties in staying in the business over time, especially for their sexuality and self-esteem. Stripped provides fresh insight into the complex work and personal experiences of exotic dancers, one that goes beyond the “sex wars” debate to offer an important new understanding of sex work.
