Antarctic Destinies: Scott, Shackleton, and the Changing Face of Heroism By Stephanie Barczewski
2009 | 412 Pages | ISBN: 0826445624 | PDF | 27 MB
This book covers the two most famous expeditions of the heroic age of Antarctic exploration, Robert Falcon Scott's Terra Nova expedition of 1910-12 and Ernest Shackleton's Endurance expedition of 1914-16. For decades after his tragic death on the return journey from the South Pole, to which he had been beaten by five weeks by the Norwegian explorer Roald Amundsen, Scott was regarded as a saint-like figure with an unassailable reputation born from his heroic martyrdom in the frozen wastes of the Antarctic. In recent years, however, Scott has attracted some of the most intense criticism any explorer has ever received. Shackleton's reputation, meanwhile, has followed a reverse trajectory. Although his achievements were always appreciated, they were never celebrated with nearly the same degree of adulation that traditionally surrounded Scott. Today, Scott and Shackleton occupy very different places in the polar pantheon of British heroes. Stephanie Barczewski explores the evolution of their reputations, and finds it has little to do with new discoveries regarding their lives and characters, but far more to do with broader cultural changes and changes in conceptions of heroism in Britain and the United States.

John O'Sullivan, "Changing the Game: The Parent's Guide to Raising Happy, High Performing Athletes, and Giving Youth Sports Back to our Ki"
English | ISBN: 1614486468 | 2013 | 200 pages | EPUB | 647 KB
Conventional wisdom holds that youth sports are a positive experience for our children. Unfortunately, 70% of kids drop out of organized athletics by the age of 13. Most of these children quit because our youth sports culture has taken the 'play' out of 'play ball.' A shift in values, the rise of expensive youth sports models, and the myth of abundant athletic scholarships has led parents and coaches to focus on wins instead of enjoyment, and trophies at the expense of development. As a result, every day increasing numbers of children quit playing sports that are no longer enjoyable. Conventional wisdom is wrong.

Sara Ritchey, "Holy Matter: Changing Perceptions of the Material World in Late Medieval Christianity"
English | 2014 | ISBN: 0801452538 | PDF | pages: 240 | 1.5 mb
A magnificent proliferation of new Christ-centered devotional practices―including affective meditation, imitative suffering, crusade, Eucharistic cults and miracles, passion drama, and liturgical performance―reveals profound changes in the Western Christian temperament of the twelfth century and beyond. This change has often been attributed by scholars to an increasing emphasis on God's embodiment in the incarnation and crucifixion of Christ. In Holy Matter, Sara Ritchey offers a fresh narrative explaining theological and devotional change by journeying beyond the human body to ask how religious men and women understood the effects of God's incarnation on the natural, material world. She finds a remarkable willingness on the part of medieval Christians to embrace the material world―its trees, flowers, vines, its worms and wolves―as a locus for divine encounter.

Srila Roy, "Changing the Subject: Feminist and Queer Politics in Neoliberal India "
English | ISBN: 1478018887 | 2022 | 280 pages | PDF | 6 MB
In Changing the Subject Srila Roy maps the rapidly transforming terrain of gender and sexual politics in India under the conditions of global neoliberalism. The consequences of India's liberalization were paradoxical: the influx of global funds for social development and NGOs signaled the co-optation and depoliticization of struggles for women's rights, even as they amplified the visibility and vitalization of queer activism. Roy reveals the specificity of activist and NGO work around issues of gender and sexuality through a decade-long ethnography of two West Bengal organizations, one working on lesbian, bisexual, and transgender issues and the other on rural women's empowerment. Tracing changes in feminist governmentality that were entangled in transnational neoliberalism, Roy shows how historical and highly local feminist currents shaped contemporary queer and nonqueer neoliberal feminisms. The interplay between historic techniques of activist governance and queer feminist governmentality's focus on changing the self offers a new way of knowing feminism-both as always already co-opted and as a transformative force in the world.

English | 2022 | ISBN: 1783277440 | 325 Pages | PDF | 17 MB
Develops an understanding of Warwickshire's past for outsiders and those already engaged with the subject, and to explore questions which apply in other regions, including those outside the United Kingdom. Published to mark the one hundredth anniversary of the Dugdale Society, which publishes Warwickshire's records, this book brings together a range of scholars - early career researchers, tenured academics, independent scholars and an archivist - all with records of excellence in research and writing, who cover a range of political, social, economic, cultural, architectural and religious subjects from the eleventh to the twentieth centuries. Besides providing original and well-researched interpretations of Warwickshire's past, the book goes further to discuss and analyse the ways in which writing of local history has changed over the last hundred years, paying particular attention to meanings and explanations that have emerged in recent times, from which future developments can be expected. As such the book will appeal not just to those interested in the local history of Warwickshire, but also to everyone concerned with local history in general, and how it should be studied and written.

Shannon K Evans, "Embracing Weakness: The Unlikely Secret to Changing the World"
English | ISBN: 057884947X | 2019 | 128 pages | EPUB | 2 MB
Embracing Weakness: The Unlikely Secret to Changing the World explores how a radical acceptance of one's own shadow side can birth a more whole and merciful response to the weaknesses of others. Through examining the Incarnation and Passion of Jesus, as well as her own life experiences as a missionary, adoptive mother, and Catholic Worker activist, the author forms the argument that the greatest potential for social and relational change comes not through a demonstration of power, but through smallness, authenticity, and empathy. If you're ready for a vibrant spiritual life overflowing with mercy -experienced and extended- read Embracing Weakness.
