Revival: An Anthology of the Best Black Canadian Writing


Revival: An Anthology of the Best Black Canadian Writing The success of George Elliott Clarke’s anthology Eyeing the North Star: Directions in African-Canadian Literature , published a decade ago, demonstrated the growing interest in black Canadian writing. In this exciting, provocative new collection, literary journalist Donna Bailey Nurse provides an up-to-date and fresh perspective on this vibrant, significant, and thriving literature. Drawing on fiction, poetry, and memoir, this anthology brings together an impressively varied selection of outstanding work by both well-known writers and new voices. Donna Bailey Nurse’s lively and invaluable introduction deftly explores the various themes and motifs that define and illuminate the meaning of being black, while tracing the evolution of this influential literature through colonialism, post-colonialism, and decolonization. This engaging collection celebrates a body of writing that holds an increasingly visible and important place within Canadian literature,... книги, книжный магазин, интернет-магазин The success of George Elliott Clarke’s anthology Eyeing the North Star: Directions in African-Canadian Literature , published a decade ago, demonstrated the growing interest in black Canadian writing.

Jacques Lacan (Routledge Critical Thinkers)

Sean Homer


Jacques Lacan (Routledge Critical Thinkers) Sean Homer This volume provides an excellent introduction to the work of Jacques Lacan, covering all of Lacan's major concepts such as the Imaginary, the Symbolic and the Real. Sean Homer draws on a number of examples from the fields of literary, film, gender and cultural studies to help explain these difficult concepts, and explores the ways in which Lacanian psychoanalytic theory has impacted on these areas. This is the ideal introduction to the work of one of the most important theorists and thinkers of our time for scholars working within a variety of disciplines. книги, книжный магазин, интернет-магазин This volume provides an excellent introduction to the work of Jacques Lacan, covering all of Lacan's major concepts such as the Imaginary, the Symbolic and the Real.

The Unfinished System Of Nonknowledge

Georges Bataille


The Unfinished System Of Nonknowledge Georges Bataille A deft reconstruction of what Georges Bataille envisioned as a continuation of his work La Somme AthA©ologique, this volume brings together the writings of one of the foremost French thinkers of the twentieth century on the central topic of his oeuvre. Gathering Bataille's most intimate writings, these essays, aphorisms, notes, and lectures on nonknowledge, sovereignty, and sacrifice clarify and extend Bataille's radical theology, his philosophy of history, and his ecstatic method of meditation. Following Bataille's lead, as laid out in his notebooks, editor Stuart Kendall assembles the fragments that Bataille anticipated collecting for his summa. Kendall's introduction offers a clear picture of the author's overall project, its historical and biographical context, and the place of these works within it.

Kendall's introduction offers a clear picture of the author's overall project, its historical and biographical context, and the place of these works within it. The "system" that emerges from these articles, notes, and lectures is "atheology," understood as a study of the effects of nonknowledge. At the other side of realism,......

Electrodynamics: A Modern Geometric Approach (Progress in Mathematical Physics)

William E. Baylis


Electrodynamics: A Modern Geometric Approach (Progress in Mathematical Physics) William E. Baylis The emphasis in this text is on classical electromagnetic theory and electrodynamics, that is, dynamical solutions to the Lorentz-force and Maxwell's equations. The natural appearance of the Minkowski spacetime metric in the paravector space of Clifford's geometric algebra is used to formulate a covariant treatment in special relativity that seamlessly connects spacetime concepts to the spatial vector treatments common in undergraduate texts. Baylis' geometrical interpretation, using such powerful tools as spinors and projectors, essentially allows a component-free notation and avoids the clutter of indices required in tensorial treatments. The exposition is clear and progresses systematically - from a discussion of electromagnetic units and an explanation of how the SI system can be readily converted to the Gaussian or natural Heaviside-Lorentz systems, to an introduction of geometric algebra and the paravector model of spacetime, and finally, special relativity.

Bob Parks


Makers: All Kinds of People Making Amazing Things In Garages, Basements, and Backyards. Bob Parks Make magazine, launched in February 2005 as the first magazine devoted to Tech DIY projects, hardware hacks, and DIY inspiration, has been hailed as Make magazine, launched in February 2005 as the first magazine devoted to Tech DIY projects, hardware hacks, and DIY inspiration, has been hailed as "a how-to guide for the opposable thumb set" and "Popular Mechanics for the modern age." Itching to build a cockroach-controlled robot, a portable satellite radio or your very own backyard monorail? Hankering to hack a game boy or your circadian rhythms? Rather read about people who fashion laptop bags from recycled wetsuits and build shopping cart go-karts? Make is required reading. Now, following on the heels of Make 's wildly popular inaugural issues, O'Reilly offers Makers , a beautiful hardbound book celebrating creativity, resourcefulness and the DIY spirit. Author Bob Parks profiles 100 people and their homebrew projects-people who make ingenious things in their backyards, basements and garages with a lot of imagination and a little applied skill. Makers features technologies......
