This statement bears witness to the enduring importance of the canoe generations after the decline of the North American fur trade. Jamie Benidickson explains that the canoe's merit lies not strictly in its function as a transportation vehicle, but in its promise of unrestricted mobility, leisure, and independence. Idleness, Water, and a Canoe is a study of the place of the canoe in Canadian life, with comparative references to the United States and Britain. A blend of history, economic analysis, technical information, and social commentary, it examines the rise of the canoe's popularity and its influence on leisure activity, economics and tourism, and literature and advertising in this country.Drawing on books, newspaper articles, original records, unusual ephemera, and interviews with paddlers, the author describes the evolution and cultural significance of two centuries of recreational paddling. He explores why canoeists have constantly sought new summer waterways, how they have practised their craft, and how much influence paddling for pleasure has had on them and on the societies in which they live. The many facets of recreational paddling are illustrated and described in a series of reflections on subjects ranging from the paddler's quest for physical and emotional renewal to what the future holds for voyageurs and their sport. Benidickson also discusses the evolution of canoe design and manufacturing, the formation of canoe clubs and organizations, the economics of recreational travel, and the paddler's role in environmental protection.Not only will this book appeal to those interested in history, sociology, aesthetics, geography, and sports and leisure studies, but its broad scope and accessible style will recommend it to the many outdoor enthusiasts who plan yearly canoeing trips. 606 $aCanoes and canoeing$zCanada 606 $aCanoes and canoeing$zUnited States 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aCanoes and canoeing 615 0$aCanoes and canoeing 676 $a797.1/22/0971 700 $aBenidickson$b Jamie$0478820 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910456303903321 996 $aIdleness, water, and a canoe$92469627 997 $aUNINA LEADER 00960nam a2200253 i 4500 001 991001159089707536 008 110414s2000 it 000 0 ita d 020 $a8837303777 035 $ab13970148-39ule_inst 040 $aDip.to Filologia Class. e Scienze Filosofiche$bita 082 00$a886.0109 100 1 $aPiazza, Francesca$0151687 245 13$aIl corpo della persuasione :$bl'entimema nella retorica greca /$cFrancesca Piazza ; prefazione di Franco Lo Piparo 260 $aPalermo :$bNovecento,$cc2000 300 $aVII, 206 p. ;$c25 cm 440 0$aBabele 504 $aBibliografia: p. 189-198.

The literary flourishing of the Flavian age shows that awareness of this canon rather stimulated creative tension. In the changing socio-cultural context, daring innovations transform the genres of poetry and prose. This volume, which collects papers by influential scholars of early Imperial literature, sheds light on the productive dynamics of the ancient genre system and can also offer insightful perspectives to a non-classicist readership. 410 0$aTrends in classics.$pSupplementary volumes ;$vVolume 51. 606 $aLatin literature$xHistory and criticism 610 $aFlavian Age. 610 $acanon. 610 $agenre system. 615 0$aLatin literature$xHistory and criticism. 676 $a870.9/001 702 $aBessone$b Federica 702 $aFucecchi$b Marco 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910796635103321 996 $aThe literary genres in the Flavian age$92661803 997 $aUNINA
