Sommario/riassunto |
|
The literary history of a nation is one of the main cornerstones of its national identity. As a result of Canada's diverse cultural history, however, its literary history is varied and, as E.D. Blodgett contends, is composed of five parts that work to create the whole. These parts include English Canada, French Canada, First Nations communities, Inuit communities, and immigrant communities. Using the critical writing on constructing nationhood, E.D. Blodgett suggests that Canadian literary histories can be used to address the problem of |

|
|
nation and to examine how each of the several 'national' groups that compose Canada develops unique narratives that demonstrate their different responses to the notion of nationhood and their sense of place within Canada's borders.The first such history of its kind in Canada, Five-Part Invention offers a means of reading ethnic difference through cultural representations: the concentration on place and spatial configuration in English Canadian literature; the focus on time and history in French Canadian literature; the cultural trauma of the First Nations and Inuit literature; and the losses and ambiguous recoveries of ethnic minority writing. Blodgett concludes by addressing the roots of Canada's fragmented literary history and speculates on the reasons that this tradition continues today. Original, intelligent, and provocative, Five-Part Invention brings an entirely new perspective to the notion of literary history and will greatly influence the study of Canadian literature in the future. |

Sommario/riassunto |
|
"In October 1999 during a trip to Cairo, Cyrus Kadivar, an exiled Iranian living in London, visited the tomb of the last shah and opened a Pandora's Box. Haunted by nostalgia for a bygone era, he recalled a protected and idyllic childhood in the fabled city of Shiraz and his coming of age during the 1979 Iranian revolution. Back in London, he reflected on what had happened to him and his family after their uprooting and decided to conduct his own investigation into why he lost his country. He spent the next ten years seeking out witnesses who would shed light on the last days of Pahlavi rule. Among those he met were a former empress, ex-courtiers, disaffected revolutionaries, and the bereaved relatives of those who perished in the cataclysm. In Farewell Shiraz, Kadivar tells the story of his family and childhood against the tumultuous backdrop of twentieth-century Iran, from the 1905-1907 Constitutional Revolution to the fall of Mohammad Reza Shah Pahlavi, before presenting accounts of his meetings with key witnesses to the Shah's fall and the rise of Khomeini. Each of the people interviewed provides a richly detailed picture of the momentous events that took place and the human drama behind them. Combining exquisite vignettes with rare testimonials and first-hand interviews, Farewell Shiraz draws us into a sweeping yet often intimate account of a vanished world and offers a compelling investigation into a political earthquake whose reverberations still live with us today."2--Amazon.com. |

Sommario/riassunto |

This atlas with over 250 illustrations and videos is a modern basic work on palpation for physiotherapists. Members of the medical-therapeutic sector face the daily challenge of having to transfer theoretical knowledge into practice. The Atlas of Palpation addresses this process through its multimedia design. Evidence-based technical texts, the most modern illustrations and practical teaching videos illustrating structures and examination procedures address both students and therapists working in practice. All the essential structures of the body are shown in three-dimensional perspective, so that a basic understanding of interrelationships and movement patterns is conveyed. The palpation grips are explained in an understandable way and described in a comprehensible way. The instructional videos were specially made by the authors and the latest technical equipment in terms of camera, lighting elements and sound ensures the highest |

possible quality. The book is clearly divided into different body systems, which include bony, articular, ligamentous, muscular, nervous, and vascular system. A clear subdivision into subheadings makes it possible to quickly find the desired content. The multimedia approach of this book represents a unique selling point in the medical-therapeutic sector in the field of palpation. This new type of "living" book opens up completely new perspectives for readers when using it. Trainees and students will find here an optimal introduction for professional palpation; for already experienced physiotherapists it is an ideal reference book for tricky questions.
