At age 18 Alysia Sawchyn was diagnosed with bipolar I. Seven years later she learned she had been misdiagnosed. A Fish Growing Lungs takes the form of linked essays that reflect on Sawchyn's diagnosis and its unraveling, the process of withdrawal and recovery, and the search for identity as she emerges from a difficult past into a cautiously hopeful present.
Sawchyn captures the precariousness of life under the watchful eye of doctors, friends, and family, in which saying or doing the wrong thing could lead to involuntary confinement. This scrutiny is compounded by the stigmas of mental illness and the societal expectations placed on the bodies of women and women of color. And yet, amid juggling medications, doubting her diagnosis, and struggling with addiction and cutting, there is also joy, friendship, love, and Slayer concerts.
Funny, intelligent, and unflinchingly honest, Sawchyn explores how we can come to know ourselves when our bodies betray us. Drawing from life experience, literature, music, medical journals, films, and recovery communities, each essay illuminates the richness of self-knowledge that comes from the act of writing itself.

Описание: By day, Luckmonkey is a struggling punk band playing in record stores and taco joints; by night, its members are anti-capitalist agitators, breaking into homes and businesses, each time stealing one possession and leaving something different in its place. Squatting in an abandoned building without electricity or heat, they scrounge a patched-together life as a raucous, mismatched family of queer, trans and first-gen social activists. But when one of them steals a wind-up monkey toy and brings it home, things begin to deteriorate into squabbles and bad decisions, until an arrest forces the group to weigh the hard work of political resistance against their individual needs for stability and safety.

Good Moms Don't is a labor of love and advocacy designed to help moms identify and conquer the guilt they carry around with them every day. Many moms hold on to "mistakes" they have made or life circumstances that forced them to parent differently than they once imagined.

Автор: Seymour Alysia Название: Internal Journey of a Writer: The Simple Path to Write Your Novel ISBN: 1982238380 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781982238384 Издательство: Неизвестно Рейтинг: Цена: 11030.00 T Наличие на складе: Невозможна поставка. Описание: This book is unlike any other writing book you have read. Instead of talking about all the things you "should" do to write your novel, or "how-to" write your novel, Internal Journey of a Writer explores just that-the inner journey one must take if they want to find true wealth and success as an author. What does this look like? It's a deeply spiritual journey that takes you within where you will discover the limitations you place on yourself-not only as a writer, but as a human-being-and how to break free from those limitations so that you can begin to see yourself as the author you want to be, RIGHT NOW. This book is a guide for those who have tried using tools and methods, no matter how great, to write their novel, only to find themselves spinning their wheels and never writing the book. Here, you will find no tools or checklists, but a clear understanding that everything you need to write your novel is within you already . . . and that's exactly what this book will guide you in doing-writing your novel from the inside, out.
Автор: Graham Kenneth, Kolentsis Alysia Название: Shakespeare on Stage and Off ISBN: 0773559256 ISBN-13(EAN): 9780773559257 Издательство: Mare Nostrum (Eurospan) Рейтинг: Цена: 34230.00 T Наличие на складе: Невозможна поставка. Описание: Today, debates about the cultural role of the humanities and the arts are roiling. Responding to renewed calls to reassess the prominence of canonical writers, Shakespeare On Stage and Off introduces new perspectives on why and how William Shakespeare still matters. Lively and accessible, the book considers what it means to play, work, and live with Shakespeare in the twenty-first century. Contributors - including Antoni Cimolino, artistic director of the Stratford Festival - engage with contemporary stagings of the plays, from a Trump-like Julius Caesar in New York City to a black Iago in Stratford-upon-Avon and a female Hamlet on the Toronto stage, and explore the effect of performance practices on understandings of identity, death, love, race, gender, class, and culture. Providing an original approach to thinking about Shakespeare, some essays ask how the knowledge and skills associated with working lives can illuminate the playwright's works. Other essays look at ways of interacting with Shakespeare in the digital age, from Shakespearean resonances in Star Trek and Indian films to live broadcasts of theatre performances, social media, and online instructional tools. Together, the essays in this volume speak to how Shakespeare continues to enrich contemporary culture. A timely guide to the ongoing importance of Shakespearean drama, Shakespeare On Stage and Off surveys recent developments in performance, adaptation, popular culture, and education. Contributors include Russell J. Bodi (Owens State Community College), Christie Carson (Royal Holloway University of London), Brandon Christopher (University of Winnipeg), Antoni Cimolino (Stratford Festival), Jacob Claflin (College of Eastern Idaho), Lauren Eriks Cline (University of Michigan), David B.

Автор: Amy Ludlow, Alysia Blackham Название: New Frontiers in Empirical Labour Law Research ISBN: 1509917063 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781509917068 Издательство: Bloomsbury Academic Рейтинг: Цена: 31670.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: This edited collection draws together papers delivered at a symposium on New Frontiers in Empirical Labour Law Research held at the University of Cambridge in April 2014. It contains contributions from established and emerging experts across a range of disciplines (including employment relations, industrial psychology, sociology, economics and political science) to consider four broad themes: the case for empiricism in labour law; the potential for mixed methods; methodological possibilities and insights from other disciplines; and practical challenges and words of caution for those conducting empirical research. This collection seeks to cultivate confidence and competence in empirical methods among both established and young labour law scholars, through an intergenerational and interdisciplinary ‘lessons learned’ dialogue. It contributes to the broader debate regarding empirical research methods in labour law, and casts light on how empirical research can be conducted in highly contested fields to enhance labour law policy-making. This collection aims to inspire labour lawyers to embark upon new forms of empirical research, both to enrich their existing research projects, and to ask new research questions. It offers the first stage of a collaborative and interdisciplinary dialogue on empirical labour law research, to emphasise the importance of collaboration and intergenerational mentoring in building empirical capacity.
Автор: Alysia Kolentsis Название: Shakespeare`s Common Language ISBN: 1350007013 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781350007017 Издательство: Bloomsbury Academic Рейтинг: Цена: 95040.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: While the past several decades of Shakespeare studies have considered Shakespeare’s style, his linguistic innovation and the taxonomies of his grammar, there have been few attempts to integrate adequately the fields of language theory and literary criticism. A gap remains, and fruitful developments in linguistics, pragmatics and discourse analysis have rarely approached Shakespeare's use of language in a comprehensive way. Shakespeare’s Common Language demonstrates how recent developments in language criticism can uncover fruitful new approaches to Shakespeare’s work, while also historicizing Shakespeare’s language to take into account the critical effects, and creative potential, of language change and linguistic variation. The book thus helps to repair a longstanding gap in the field of early modern literature. In mapping the tools of grammar and linguistics onto the study of literature, Shakespeare’s Common Language frames a methodology that offers a fresh approach to reading dramatic language.
