At Loggerheads seeks to describe ways to reconciles pressures for agricultural expansion in the tropics with the urgent needs for both forest conservation and poverty alleviation. It diagnoses the causes and impacts of forest loss and the reasons for the association of forests and poverty. It looks at how policies - modulated by local conditions - act simultaneously on deforestation and poverty, creating tradeofWorld Bank e-Library.Agricultural expansion, poverty reduction, and environment in the tropical forestsAgricultureTropicsDeforestationEnvironmental aspectsTropicsDeforestationSocial aspectsTropicsDeforestationTropicsForest policyTropicsAgricultureDeforestationEnvironmental aspectsDeforestationSocial aspectsDeforestationForest policy333.75Chomitz Kenneth M313470DNAL/DLCDLCDLCBOOK9910777604303321At loggerheads?3703981UNINA03498nam 22007095 450 991048495040332120230810165733.09783030321932303032193210.1007/978-3-030-32193-2(CKB)4100000009606217(MiAaPQ)EBC5967866(DE-He213)978-3-030-32193-2(Perlego)3494488(EXLCZ)99410000000960621720191022d2019 u| 0engurcnu||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierMultiple Narratives, Versions and Truth in the Contemporary Novel /by Nicholas Frangipane1st ed. 2019.Cham :Springer International Publishing :Imprint: Palgrave Pivot,2019.1 online resource (126 pages)9783030321925 3030321924 Includes bibliographical references and index.1.

Conclusion: A Dark Turn and Other Manifestations. .Multiple Narratives, Versions and Truth in the Contemporary Novel considers the shifting perception of truth in fiction. Nicholas Frangipane examines the narrative technique of telling multiple versions of the same sets of events, presenting both true and false versions of the events within a fictional work. This book looks closely at these "Reflexive Double Narratives" in order to understand the way many contemporary writers have attempted to work past postmodernism without forgetting its lessons. Frangipane explores how writers like Ian McEwan, Yann Martel and Alice Munro have departed from the radical experimentation of their predecessors and instead make sincere attempts to find ways that fictional writing can reveal enduring truths, and in so doing, redefine the meaning of "truth" itself and signal the emergence of post-postmodernism. .Literature, Modern20th centuryLiterature, Modern21st centuryAmericaLiteraturesLiteraturePhilosophyEthnologyAmericaCultureContemporary LiteratureNorth American LiteratureLiterary TheoryTwentieth-Century LiteratureAmerican CultureLiterature, ModernLiterature, ModernAmericaLiteratures.LiteraturePhilosophy.EthnologyCulture.Contemporary Literature.North American Literature.Literary Theory.Twentieth-Century Literature.American Culture.823.9209823.9209384Frangipane Nicholasauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut1226100MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910484950403321Multiple Narratives, Versions and Truth in the Contemporary Novel2846753UNINA
