This Fiction Named Allen Ginsberg --CHAPTER ELEVEN. Best Minds --Notes and Sources --IndexWritten as a cultural weapon and a call to arms, Howl touched a raw nerve in Cold War America and has been controversial from the day it was first read aloud nearly fifty years ago. This first full critical and historical study of Howl brilliantly elucidates the nexus of politics and literature in which it was written and gives striking new portraits of Allen Ginsberg, Jack Kerouac, and William Burroughs. Drawing from newly released psychiatric reports on Ginsberg, from interviews with his psychiatrist, Dr. Philip Hicks, and from the poet's journals, American Scream shows how Howl brought Ginsberg and the world out of the closet of a repressive society. It also gives the first full accounting of the literary figures-Eliot, Rimbaud, and Whitman-who influenced Howl, definitively placing it in the tradition of twentieth-century American poetry for the first time. As he follows the genesis and the evolution of Howl, Jonah Raskin constructs a vivid picture of a poet and an era. He illuminates the development of Beat poetry in New York and San Francisco in the 1950s--focusing on historic occasions such as the first reading of Howl at Six Gallery in San Francisco in 1955 and the obscenity trial over the poem's publication. He looks closely at Ginsberg's life, including his relationships with his parents, friends, and mentors, while he was writing the poem and uses this material to illuminate the themes of madness, nakedness, and secrecy that pervade Howl.A captivating look at the cultural climate of the Cold War and at a great American poet, American Scream finally tells the full story of Howl-a rousing manifesto for a generation and a classic of twentieth-century literature.Literature and mental illnessUnited StatesHistory20th centuryPoetryPsychological aspectsMental illness in literatureBeat generation20th century.allen ginsberg.america.american culture.american poetry.american poets.american society.art and literature.beat generation.beat movement.beat poets.cold war america.controversial.critical analysis.cultural history.historical review.howl.jack kerouac.lit scholars.lit studies.literary criticism.literary figures.literary movements.modern poetry.new york.political literature.psychiatry.repressive society.san francisco.spoken word poetry.united states.walt whitman.william burroughs.Literature and mental illnessHistoryPoetryPsychological aspects.Mental illness in literature.Beat generation.811/.54Raskin Jonah1942-1446576MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910777350003321American scream3741835UNINA02971nam 2200553 a 450 991043791550332120200520144314.01-283-69700-91-4471-4504-610.1007/978-1-4471-4504-2(CKB)2670000000277729(EBL)1030529(OCoLC)813298578(SSID)ssj0000790760(PQKBManifestationID)11518584(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000790760(PQKBWorkID)10751857(PQKB)10478932(DE-He213)978-1-4471-4504-2(MiAaPQ)EBC1030529(PPN)168293625(EXLCZ)99267000000027772920121016d2013 uy 0engur|n|---|||||txtccrDesign of demining machines /Dinko Mikulic1st ed. 2013.London Springer20131 online resource (221 p.)Description based upon print version of record.1-4471-5894-6 1-4471-4503-8 Includes bibliographical references and index.Humanitarian Demining Techniques -- Mechanics of Machine Demining -- Design of Demining Machines -- Design of Mine Protected Vehicles -- Personal Protective Equipment -- Test and Evaluation of Demining Machines.In constant effort to eliminate mine danger, international mine action community has been developing safety, efficiency and cost-effectiveness of clearance methods. Demining machines have become necessary when conducting humanitarian demining where the mechanization of demining provides greater safety and productivity. Design of Demining Machines describes the development and testing of modern demining machines in humanitarian demining.   Relevant data for design of demining machines are included to explain the machinery implemented and some innovative and inspiring development solutions. Development technologies, companies and projects are discussed to provide a comprehensive estimate of the effects of various design factors and to proper selection of optimal parameters for designing the demining machines.   Covering the dynamic processes occurring in machine assemblies and their components to a broader understanding of demining machine as a whole, Design of Demining Machines is primarily tailored as a text for the study of the fundamentals and engineering techniques involved in the calculation and design of demining machines. It will prove as useful resource for engineers, designers, researchers and policy makers working in this field.Land minesLand mines.623.26Mikulic Dinko1064377MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910437915503321Design of Demining Machines2537735UNINA04021nam 22005653u 450 991015942670332120230803210327.01-59079-257-2(CKB)3710000000286691(EBL)1847002(SSID)ssj0001683663(PQKBManifestationID)16509896(PQKBTitleCode)TC0001683663(PQKBWorkID)15038275(PQKB)11143523(MiAaPQ)EBC6976742(Au-PeEL)EBL6976742(OCoLC)969443289(EXLCZ)99371000000028669120141124d2014|||| u|| |engur|n|---|||||txtccrThe Living Spirit Answers for Healing and Infinite Love1st ed.Cork BookBaby20141 online resource (214 p.)Description based upon print version of record.1-59079-144-4 Front Cover; Title Page; Copyright; Dedication; Contents; Acknowledgments; Introduction; 1 Journey to Spiritual Awareness; Tuning into Universal Energy and Messages from Spirit; Focusing Our Energies to Create a Good Life: The Law of Attraction; Taking Responsibility for Our Happiness; The Benefits of Spiritual Transformation; Beginning Your Spiritual Journey; 2 You Are Not Crazy; Recognizing Our Life Paths and Accepting the Choices of Others; Connecting to Infinite Love in All Its Forms; Loving Humanity in Spite of Our Beliefs That Separate UsMethods for Overcoming Fear or Skepticism from Others3 Developing a Mediumship; Interpreting the Messages from Spirit; Guidance from Loved Ones in Spirit; Listening to Your Inner Voice to Communicate the Voices of Spirit; Expanding Your Gifts as a Medium; 4 Healing Hands: Becoming a Reiki Practitioner; Expanding the Gift of Energy Healing; Discovering the Many Methods of Energy Healing; Experiences of Healing in My Reiki Practice and as a Medium; 5 Not Your Mother's Doctor: The Growing Acceptance of Energy Healing; The Increasing Practice of Energy Healing in Western MedicineChoosing a Modality of Energy HealingDistance Healing; Dealing with Spiritual Doubt; Dealing with Practical Concerns; The Role of the Energy Healer; 6 Getting Our Spiritual House in Order; Understanding Our Emotional Landscape; Balancing the Energy of Our Mind and Heart; The Spiritual Wisdom of Children; Balancing and Transforming Energy; We Are Now in a New Spiritual Revolution; 7 You Are Not Alone; Changes in Our Relationships with Family and Friends as a Result of Our Spiritual Practices; Methods to Achieve Balance, Courage, and Self-Confidence in Pursuit of Our Life GoalsHelping Clients to Heal from Problems in Intimate RelationshipsTechniques to Improve Communication in Relationships of Love; Protecting Ourselves from Negative Emotions of Damaged and Toxic People; 8 Now and Forever: Guidance from the Other Side; Receiving Help from Our Spiritual Guides; Seeing and Meeting Master Spirit Guides to Relay Their Messages; Responding to Those Who Ask Our Help to Heal; Sensing Our Interactions in Past Lives; Epilogue; Suggested Readings; About the Author The Living Spirit is not just for healers, but for anyone who wants to awaken to their soul's mission and to the incredible plan God has for them.
