Описание: Although many Americans think of Jackie Robinson when considering the story of segregation in baseball, a long history of tragedies and triumphs precede Robinson's momentous debut with the Brooklyn Dodgers. From the pioneering Cuban Giants (1885-1915) to the Negro Leagues (1920-1960), black baseball was a long-standing staple of African American communities. While many of its artifacts and statistics are lost, black baseball figured vibrantly in films, novels, plays, and poems. In Invisible Ball of Dreams: Literary Representations of Baseball behind the Color Line, author Emily Ruth Rutter examines wide-ranging representations of this history by William Brashler, Jerome Charyn, August Wilson, Gloria Naylor, Harmony Holiday, Kevin King, Kadir Nelson, and Denzel Washington, among others.Reading representations across the literary color line, Rutter opens a propitious space for exploring black cultural pride and residual frustrations with racial hypocrisies on the one hand and the benefits and limitations of white empathy on the other. Exploring these topics is necessary to the project of enriching the archives of segregated baseball in particular and African American cultural history more generally.

Built on hundreds of studies in the US, the UK, and around theworld, and written with energy, wit, and sparkling intelligence, thisis a groundbreaking, unforgettable expos. that will change theway you look at the world.

Описание: At the heart of the current panic is the "shadow banking system," the nexus of financial markets and instruments unknown to most people. It is a real banking system, providing a way for institutional investors and firms to deposit money. But it was vulnerable to a banking panic. This system, which insider Gary Gorton attempts to unfurl in Slapped by the Invisible Hand, lies at the heart of today`s financial crisis. Building upon his highly-acclaimed paper for the theFederal Reserve Bank of Kansas City`s August 2008 Jackson Hole Conference, Gorton presents new research and the information relevant to understanding the complexity of exactly what went wrong in the financial sphere.
