Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Masculinity: an anthology of modern voices is a book of poetry which aims to showcase the diversity of what it means to be a man and what it means to embrace its multitudes. These poems emphasise that masculinity is not a monolithic concept, but a dynamic, evolving force that can be shaped by culture, society, and personal experiences. Including poetry from Andrew McMillan, Ian Duhig, Michael Pedersen, Andre Bagoo, Pdraig Tuama and more, this is a powerful, visceral reminder that masculinity is so much more than the sum of its parts, and a call to open up a dialogue about masculinity that is inclusive, progressive, and affirming.Contributors: Simon Alderwick, Giovan Alonzi, Matt Alton, Paul Atten Ash, Barney Ashton-Bullock, Andre Bagoo, Peter Bakowski, Robert Bal, Ben Banyard, Jack Belloli, Brandon T.

Excerpt: Frederick Carlton 'Carl' Lewis (born July 1, 1961) is a former American track and field athlete who won 10 Olympic medals including 9 gold, and 10 World Championships medals, of which 8 were gold. His career spanned from 1979 when he first achieved a world ranking to 1996 when he last won an Olympic title and subsequently retired. Lewis became an actor and has appeared in a number of films.In 2011 Lewis announced a run as a Democratic candidate for a seat in the New Jersey Senate, but was disqualified by state officials who said he failed to meet the state's residency requirement. A federal appeals court in Philadelphia ruled May 5, 2011, that Lewis can be on the ballot for the upcoming New Jersey primary. Lewis was a dominant sprinter and long jumper who topped the world rankings in the 100 m, 200 m and long jump events frequently from 1981 to the early 1990s, was named Athlete of the Year by Track and Field News in 1982, 1983 and 1984, and set world records in the 100 m, 4 x 100 m and 4 x 200 m relays. His world record in the indoor long jump has stood since 1984 and his 65 consecutive victories in the long jump achieved over a span of 10 years is one of the sport s longest undefeated streaks. His lifetime accomplishments have led to numerous accolades, including being voted 'Sportsman of the Century' by the International Olympic Committee and being named 'Olympian of the Century' by the American sports magazine Sports Illustrated.

Re-look at Reformation and Theological Challenges of Martin Luther towards Transforming Reformation/Songram Basumatary. Contemporary 95 Theses. The Sixteenth Century Reformation is considered as next to the introduction of Christianity for its impact on the life of the Church and society as a whole. For Reformation in general, and Luther in particular, directly or indirectly provided an immense impulse and a propelling force to every forward movement towards modern world and human civilization. Even five hundred years after, Luther's theological challenges and the spirit of Reformation continue to inspire people to stand against various ills and evils in the Church and society. As the situation of Church and society in our times appear rather more volatile than the situation of Luther's time, perhaps the spirit of Reformation not only appears more impelling, but its challenges and relevance finds new meanings and vibrancy. Therefore, in order to mark the commemoration of 500th Years of Reformation and the challenges beyond, the UELCI and Gurukul comeout with this volume which reads the Sixteenth Century Reformation and its relevance with new eyes and from diverse perspectives by giving strong emphasis on the issues and challenges facing the Indian society at large and the Indian Church in particular. Hope, this book will instil in readers, a vision for transforming reformation.

Publication Year:2021 --- SUMMARY There was a time, not so long ago, when Medieval Studies constituted a major pillar for the understanding of the history of human civilization. Today, things are different. While the medieval contribution to the project of humanity remains beyond doubt, the challenges facing those interested in history have changed definitively. Currently, different responses to the new situation are under discussion, each with its own potential and challenges: e.g., global medievalism, digital humanities, comparative history, rethinking the cultural narrative. In this volume, specialists from the fields of Digital Humanities, History, Literary Studies, Philosophy, and Theology share with the readers their views about the possible futures of Medieval Studies. They evince the vitality and multi-perspectivism characteristic of the field today, showing that Medieval Studies looks to a future that, while different from the past, promises to be at least as rich and creative. The papers collected here were first presented and discussed at the 6th European Congress of Medieval Studies of the Fédération Internationale des Instituts d Etudes Médiévales (FIDEM), which was held at the University of Basel, Switzerland, 2 5 September 2018.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -With the growing age of the general population, the proportion of elderly patients with diffuse coronary artery disease and severe comorbidities is increasing. When medical therapy cannot relieve the symptoms in these patients, their characteristics render them unsuitable for currently rec ognized invasive procedures, namely coronary artery bypass grafting and percutaneous transluminal angioplasty. There is an urgent need for new treatment modalities which can alleviate their symptoms and increase blood flow to the ischemic myocardium while being less inva sive for their fragile condition. The idea for this book was to relate my personal experience in the research and clinical fields and the current state of knowledge as reported in the literature. An additional aim was to provide anatomical and physiological background as well as a complete review of the new methods of revascularization currently being developed. To this purpose, I have analyzed many studies on the microvascula ture of the heart, the historical forerunners of the new procedures, and the new treatment modalities themselves: transmyocardiallaser revascu larization, therapeutic angiogenesis, and neurostimulation.

For many decades, specialists in Romanesque and Early Gothic art and architecture have questioned the usefulness of traditional stylistic terminology. It is regarded as having limited relevance insofar as it fails to reflect the complexity and plurality of the period under discussion. Nor does it embrace functional, formal or iconographic specificities. Despite these deficiencies, we still have no better way of referring to the art of the period than Romanesque, Late Romanesque or Early Gothic which we make yet more cumbersome by adding a geographical or political term. Of the various media which were affected by artistic innovation in Europe during the second half of the 12th century, particular attention has been paid to stained glass, manuscript illumination, metalwork and enamel. Monumental sculpture was equally subject to profound change during the period, in addition to developing in directions that were largely independent of other media. As a result, late Romanesque sculpture extends across the period from 1140 to 1220, from Saxony to Galicia, though it is still impossible to encapsulate in a single statement what this complex network represented. However, the attainment of a compelling naturalism does seem to have been a shared aspiration among Latin European sculptors. Emerging Naturalism: Contexts and Narratives in European Sculpture 1140?1220 offers a panoramic analysis of this artistic landscape, focused on a central issue in medieval European artistic production. To narrow this field of study, the book concentrates on the innovations and solutions adopted in the great church workshops of western Europe. Gerardo Boto Varela teaches art history at the Universitat de Girona (Spain), is leader of the international research group Templa, and scientific editor of the journal Codex Aquilarensis. Revista de Arte Medieval. His research concentrates on spatial, pictorial, and liturgical aspects of Spanish ecclesiastical architecture from the tenth to thirteenth centuries, as well as on dynastic tombs and memorial culture in Medieval Iberia. Marta Serrano Coll teaches art history at the Universitat Rovira i Virgili in Tarragona (Spain) and specializes in Medieval architecture and sculpture, particularly in Catalonia. Her research interests include the display of power through artworks and royal patronage in the Iberian Peninsula during the Middle Ages. In addition, she has published in the field of Romanesque sculpture and hagiographical studies. John McNeill teaches at Oxford University?s Department of Continuing Education, and is Honorary Secretary of the British Archaeological Association, for whom he has edited and contributed to volumes on Anjou, King?s Lynn and the Fens, the medieval cloister, and English medieval chantries. He was instrumental in establishing a biennial International Romanesque Conference Series and has a particular interest in the design of medieval monastic precincts.

Hardback - Questo volume dimostra la continua vitalità della storia dei Capetingi allo studio del mondo medievale. In questo volume, tredici dei maggiori studiosi mondiali della Francia medievale esplorano alcune delle idee, degli eventi, delle personalità e delle creazioni artistiche più importanti del mondo Capetingi (987 1328). Da alcuni dei primi tentativi medievali di trattare la storia francese attraverso l'invenzione delle scuole, la creazione dell'architettura gotica, le pratiche cavalleresche, la pratica della politica e la promulgazione dei codici di legge, il volume offre una panoramica visione del regno e dell'era che è arrivata a definire il mondo medievale sia nell'immaginario accademico che in quello popolare. Gli studiosi riuniti in questo volume condividono anche un comune senso di gratitudine e un debito intellettuale nei confronti di Elizabeth AR Brown, il cui rigore e brillantezza hanno ispirato il loro lavoro e plasmato il loro senso del passato. Il rituale politico e la pratica nella Francia capetingia sono sia un tributo a uno studioso di vera realizzazione sia una raccolta di borse di studio originali sollevate sulle basi stabilite dalla stessa Elizabeth AR Brown.

Xavier Bichat (1771-1802), French anatomist and physiologist, is considered the father of modern histology and pathology. He was the first to grasp the concept of tissues as distinct entities from organs and (in vol. III of his Traité d'Anatomie ) introduced the terms "animal" and "vegetative" systems. Appointed physician to the Hôtel Dieu in Paris, he was reputed to have conducted more than six hundred autopsies in less than six months.

C. Douglas Premier of Sask. Sept 24th 1958" Alexander "Sandy" Duff Robertson was born on April 28,1926, in Dunkfield, England. He received an M.B. from the University of Edinburgh in 1949, a D.P.H. from the University of London in 1955, and an M.D. from the University of Saskatchewan in 1961. In 1958, Robertson became head of the Department of Social and Preventive Medicine at the University of Saskatchewan becoming one of the early supporters of Douglas and importantly Medicare [Social Medicine] as acknowledged by Douglas's inscription. Superb provenance making this a historically important book. Robertson later accepted the executive directorship of the Milbank Memorial Fund in New York City in 1962.Signed inscription by former Saskatchewan premier, father of Canadian medicare system, and "greatest Canadian," Tommy Douglas dated Sept 24th 1958, during the time Douglas was premier of the province (from 1944 to 1961) In November 2004 a nation wide vote by over one million Canadians selected Tommy Douglas as "The Greatest Canadian of all Time."Known as the 'Father of Medicare' - he launched medicare in Saskatchewan when he was premier of that province, first universal hospital insurance in 1947, then medicare in 1959. He has been described as, "the most influential politician never to be elected Prime Minister." Tommy Douglas was a great Canadian he had many roles: a minister, a family man, a persuasive public speaker, a comedian, an advocate for the poor, unemployed and farmers. But those roles just combine into one title to most Canadians: a great politician who cared about people. He was not in politics for prestige or the money of political life, he was there because he wanted to make life better for all Canadians. Always able to adapt and change his approach if one method did not work. For Tommy Douglas democratic socialism was really his only political choice because it was the only philosophy that valued all people as much as he did." quoted from Wayne Fisher on-line article Tommy Douglas Making Canada Better!Tommy Douglas made an invaluable contribution to political life," says Xavier Gélinas, Curator of Canadian Political History at the Canadian Museum of Civilization. "In total, he provided the impetus for about a hundred pieces of legislation, several of which can be said to have shaped the Canadian identity."In recognition of this immense contribution, in 1980 he was named a Companion of the Order of Canada.

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. First Edition (SD) in original cloth. This book has some pretty impressive provenance. It has the armorial bookplate of Sir Philip Crampton Smyly on the front inside cover. Smyly was, in his time, one of the most eminent surgeons in Dublin. At various times he was the President of the Royal College of Surgeons, the President of the Laryngological Association of Great Britain, the President of the Irish Medical Association, and the President of the Irish Medical Schools and Graduates' Association. And he played a mean violin, actually his talent was described as 'competent'. He was also Surgeon-in-Ordinary to Queen Victoria in Ireland until her death, and honorary surgeon to King Edward. He died in Merrion Square, Dublin in 1904. On the title page is a little stamp of his name and that address. One page forward, on the second front end paper there is a penciled inscription: 'For T. O'Conor Sloane from Roland Blenner-Hassett (a professor wrote me and identified him, he was a scholar in the field of Irish studies). 'Thomas O'Conor Sloane was an American scientist, inventor, author, editor, educator, and linguist, perhaps best known for writing The Standard Electrical Dictionary and as the editor of Scientific American, from 1886 to 1896 and the first science fiction magazine, Amazing Stories, from 1929 to 1938. He was involved with Amazing Stories from the very beginning, serving as Hugo Gernsback's managing editor and then editor. Gernsback and Sloane believed that science fiction should promote science and technology and that the stories published in Amazing Stories should be as scientifically plausible as possible, with Sloane in particular emphasizing this. It is thought that Sloane collaborated with Gernsback in originating the term 'scientifiction' which was superseded by 'science fiction' to describe this genre, as suggested in part by the first issue of Amazing Stories. Sloane's best known invention, introduced in 1878, was the Self-Recording Photometer for Gas Power (also called the thermophoto) --the first instrument to mechanically register the illuminating power of natural gas. The year before, in 1877, Sloane had described a new process for determining sulphur in natural gas.' James Clarence Mangan's early poetry was often apolitical, but after the famine he began writing patriotic poems. During his life, and immediately after, his legacy was co-opted by Irish Nationalism, primarily thanks to John Mitchel's biography, which stressed that Mangan was 'a rebel with his whole heart and soul against the whole British spirit', building his reputation as Ireland's first national poet. WB Yeats considered Mangan one of the best Irish poets, writing 'To the soul of Clarence Mangan was tied the burning ribbon of Genius.' James Joyce used his name in Araby in Dubliners and other of his works.' And everyone who handled the book handled it respectfully. You can see the textured covers in the photos. There is a blind stamped illustration of a harp on both the front and rear cover. I don't see any conspicuous soiling. The gilt lettering on the spine is still reasonably bright. There is light rubbing and loss at the spine ends. The cover edges look very good, just a few tiny dents. The corners have only small spots of rubbing. The book is quite solidly bound. Scrolling through the pages, I'm not seeing any binding issues at all, no cracks or spaces at any of the junctures. The covers are nicely tight. The pages are also quite clean. I saw only a very few small spots. The signed end paper has spotting/foxing. I saw only a few small, minor creases, creasing is not an issue. The aforementioned little stamp of 'Philip C. Smyly' is the only marking. His bookplate is the only attachment. And the inscription to T. O'Conor Sloane is the only writing to be found anywhere in the book. This very rare first edition not only has fascinating provenance, it has fascinating Irish provenance. It also has four pages of advertisements at its end.
