In this rich and evocative collection of agrarian writing from the past two centuries, writers from Hector St. Jean de Crevecoeur to Wendell Berry reveal not only the great reach and durability of the American agrarian ideal, but also the ways in which society has contested and confronted its relationship to agriculture over the course of generations.Drawing inspiration from Virgil's agrarian epic poem, Georgics, this collection presents a complex historical portrait of the American character through its relationship to the land. From the first European settlers eager to cultivate new soil, to the Transcendentalist, utopian, and religious thinkers of the nineteenth century, American society has drawn upon the vision of a pure rural life for inspiration. Back-to-the-land movements have surged and retreated in the past centuries yet provided the agrarian roots for the environmental movement of the past forty years. Interpretative essays and a sprinkling of illustrations accompany excerpts from each of these periods of American agrarian thought, providing a framework for understanding the sweeping changes that have confronted the nation's landscape. 410 0$aYale agrarian studies. 606 $aAgricultural ecology$zUnited States 606 $aAgriculture$zUnited States$xHistory 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aAgricultural ecology 615 0$aAgriculture$xHistory. 676 $a630.973 700 $aBarnstone$b Willis, $4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0488524 701 $aDonahue$b Brian$f1955-$01053011 701 $aGregg$b Sara M$01053012 701 $aHagenstein$b Edwin C$01053013 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910456976303321 996 $aAmerican georgics$92484639 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03491nam 22006974a 450 001 9910783916903321 005 20200520144314.0 010 $a1-281-89694-2 010 $a9786611896942 010 $a981-270-118-4 035 $a(CKB)1000000000334307 035 $a(EBL)296132 035 $a(OCoLC)476063560 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000162962 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11164100 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000162962 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10124059 035 $a(PQKB)11704817 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC296132 035 $a(WSP)00000286 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL296132 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10173970 035 $a(CaONFJC)MIL189694 035 $a(PPN)164923616 035 $a(EXLCZ)991000000000334307 100 $a20060829d2005 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 10$aGinzburg-Landau vortices$b[electronic resource] /$fHai?m Brezis, Tatsien Li 210 $aBeijing, China $cHigher Education Press ;$aSingapore $cWorld Scientific Publishing, Co.$dc2005 215 $a1 online resource (196 p.) 225 1 $aSeries in contemporary applied mathematics ;$v5 300 $a"The "Ginzburg-Landau Vortices" School and Symposium ... was held during November 18-19, 2002 in Fudan University, Shanghai, China"--P. v. 311 $a981-256-203-6 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references. 327 $aPreface; Contents; Bifurcation Problems for Ginzburg-Landau Equations and Applications to Bose-Einstein Condensates; Vortex Analysis of the Ginzburg-Landau Model of Superconductivity; On Singular Perturbation Problems Involving a "Circular-Well" Potential; Existence Results on Ginzburg-Landau Equations; A Survey on Ginzburg-Landau Vortices of Superconducting Thin Films*; On the Hydro-dynamic Limit of Ginzburg-Landau Wave Vortices; Singular Sets of the Landau-Lifshitz System*; Analysis of Ginzburg-Landau Models for Type I Superconductivity*; Ferromagnets and Landau-Lifshitz Equation 330 $aThe Ginzburg-Landau equation as a mathematical model of superconductors has become an extremely useful tool in many areas of physics where vortices carrying a topological charge appear. The remarkable progress in the mathematical understanding of this equation involves a combined use of mathematical tools from many branches of mathematics. The Ginzburg-Landau model has been an amazing source of new problems and new ideas in analysis, geometry and topology. This collection will meet the urgent needs of the specialists, scholars and graduate students working in this area or related areas. 410 0$aSeries in contemporary applied mathematics ;$v5. 606 $aSingularities (Mathematics) 606 $aMathematical physics 606 $aSuperconductors$xMathematics 606 $aSuperfluidity$xMathematics 606 $aDifferential equations, Nonlinear$xNumerical solutions 615 0$aSingularities (Mathematics) 615 0$aMathematical physics. 615 0$aSuperconductors$xMathematics. 615 0$aSuperfluidity$xMathematics. 615 0$aDifferential equations, Nonlinear$xNumerical solutions. 676 $a532.0595 701 $aBre?zis$b H$g(Haim)$0342230 701 $aLi$b Daqian$0755910 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910783916903321 996 $aGinzburg-Landau vortices$93738940 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03857nam 2200829 450 001 9910819235203321 005 20240102235743.0 010 $a1-281-99552-5 010 $a9786611995522 010 $a1-4426-7710-4 024 7 $a10.3138/9781442677104 035 $a(DE-B1597)464642 035 $a(OCoLC)944177754 035 $a(DE-B1597)9781442677104 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL4671712 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr11257412 035 $a(OCoLC)958558833 035 $a(VaAlCD)20.500.12592/jf3h10 035 $a(schport)gibson_crkn/2009-12-01/6/417788 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC4671712 035 $a(OCoLC)815761659 035 $a(MdBmJHUP)musev2_104963 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC3255089 035 $a(CKB)2420000000004186 035 $a(EXLCZ)992420000000004186 100 $a20160921h19981998 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt $2rdacontent 182 $cc $2 rdamedia 183 $acr $2 rdacarrier 200 10$aMasculine migrations $ereading the postcolonial male in 'New Canadian' narratives /$fDaniel Coleman 210 1$aToronto, [Ontario] ;$aBuffalo, [New York] ;$aLondon, [England] :$cUniversity of Toronto Press,$d1998. 210 4$dİ1998 215 $a1 online resource (220 pages) 225 1 $aTheory / Culture 300 $aOriginally presented as the author's thesis (PhD)--University of Alberta, 1995. 311 $a0-8020-8102-9 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references and index. 327 $tIntroduction: Reading Masculine Migrations --$g1.$t'Playin' 'mas, ' Hustling Respect: Multicultural Masculinities in Two Stories by Austin Clarke --$g2.$tHow to Make Love to a Discursive Genealogy: Dany Laferriere's Metaparody of Racialized Sexuality --$g3.$tResisting Heroics: Male Disidentification in Neil Bissoondath's A Casual Brutality --$g4.$tMichael Ondaatje's Family Romance: Orientalism, Masculine Severance, and Interrelationship --$g5.$tThe Law of the Father under the Pen of the Son: Rohinton Mistry, Ven Begamudre, and the Romance of Family Progress --$tAfterword: Masculine Innovations and Cross-Cultural Refraction. 330 1 $a"This book examines the representation of masculinities in the fictions and autobiographies of some of Canada's most exciting writers, including Austin Clarke, Dany Laferriere, Neil Bissoondath, Michael Ondaatje, Ven Begamudre, and Rohinton Mistry, to show how cross-cultural migration disrupts assumed codes for masculine behaviour and practice.
