Описание: From the Introduction.THIS little volume deserves attention apart from its memorial character. Its level and range of thought, and its literary quality, are of a high order. Those especially who would cultivate the power of apt and effective public speaking will find in it much that is helpful.It is capable of a yet higher service, and for a wider circle. Whatever presents to the mind a true ideal, and quickens the energies necessary to its pursuit, has a universal value and is fitted to gain permanent influence. This ideal may specially concern a particular profession, yet its elevation and nobleness belong to all pure and lofty aims and bring them to view, and the strenuous purpose revealed in its pursuit in any direction of effort is identical or accordant with the resolution demanded for the cultivation of excellence in all other spheres in which it may be attained. It is in this way that the following pages, even those most exclusively occupied with the objects and methods of a single calling, will attract and influence, it is hoped, men of other vocations, and, indeed, so far as they become known, every generous and aspiring mind. This their wider adaptation and import will doubtless appear at once to anyone who will carefully peruse them. Yet a brief reference to some facts personal to the author of the lectures, sermons, and other productions here gathered together may not be superfluous.Professor Pease was endowed with unusual gifts for linguistic and literary pursuits. The Latin, Greek, Hebrew, French, German, Spanish, Italian languages were easily at his command, and he was unusually conversant with the best in their literatures. He had a strong natural predilection for aesthetic studies. The call came to him to take up the work of a preacher of the gospel and of a pastor. Fearing lest his love of "belles lettres," if he wrote his sermons, would hazard or mar their essential quality as addresses, converting them more or less into essays, he early determined to speak to men directly and under the influence of their immediate presence. Perfecting in every way his conception of the possible power and highest objects of such address, he gave himself with remarkable assiduity and strength of resolution to the realization of his ideal. He was first and most of all a diligent student of the Word of God, reading it in the original languages with critical care, catching with ear attent the very "accent of the Holy Ghost."...

Описание: Modernism, Sex, and Gender is an up-to-date and in-depth review of how theories of gender and sexuality have shaped the way modernism has been read and interpreted from its inception to the present day. The volume explores four key aspects of modernist literature and criticism that have contributed to the new modernist studies: women’s contributions to modernism; masculinities; sexuality; and the intersection of gender and sexuality with politics and law. Including brief case studies of such writers as May Sinclair and Radclyffe Hall, this book is a valuable guide for those looking to understand the history of critical thought on gender and sexuality in modernist studies today.

Ghosts, it's time to meet your baker.
Joanie Sunevall has never been wrong when it comes to love. Since moving to Heartwood Hollow four years ago, she's gotten twelve couples together. Her knack for matchmaking is only one reason why rumors swirl through the small town about her being a witch. The other is the belief she bakes magic into her treats. If only they knew about her ability to see ghosts, but that's one secret Joanie doesn't want discovered.
Joanie's not a witch, at least she doesn't think so, although she plays into the rumors to sell more baked goods. And she loves helping people find who they're meant to be with. When spirits interfere with the blossoming romance between two of her regular customers, Joanie is put to the test.
She must decide what's more important, fighting for true love or protecting her secret.

The Story of the Crow Indians is a comprehensive study of the history of the Crow people and their culture. Among the topics it covers are the harrowing experiences of 1960s relocation; the struggles of a vibrant community facing smallpox, tuberculosis epidemics, and land and resource grabs; and the surprising renaissance of Crow traditional arts, religion, language, sports.
Organized chronologically and following a timeline of significant events, the book includes contributions from ten tribal scholars who bring fresh perspective to the history of their people. An example of the unique content for which contained in the book is the community-based oral histories of the Apsaalooke knowledge of the stars -- from the elders who have taught their grandchildren to have an extraordinary sense of "the stars we know."
Another major feature of this work is the Apsaa'looke Bii'a, the Crow woman. The female chiefs of the buffalo days as well as the historians, activists, and primary political leaders are portrayed within the strong matriarchal society of the Crow people.
