PSYCH

Author: Merlin Coverley
File Type: pdf
Psychogeography. Increasingly this term is used to illustrate a bewildering array of ideas from key lines and the occult, to urban walking and political radicalism. But where does it come from and what exactly does it mean? This book examines the origins of psychogeography in the Situationist Movement of the 1950s, exploring the theoretical background and its political applications as well as the work of early practitioners such as Guy Debord and Raoul Vaneigem. Elsewhere, psychogeographic ideas continue to find retrospective validation in much earlier traditions from the visionary writing of William Blake and Thomas De Quincey to the rise of the flaneur on the streets of 19th century Paris and on through the avant-garde experimentation of the Surrealists. These precursors to psychogeography are discussed here alongside their modern counterparts, for today these ideas hold greater currency than ever through the popularity of writers and filmmakers such as Iain Sinclair and Peter Ackroyd, Stewart Home and Patrick Keiller. From Urban Wandering to Cognitive Mapping, from the Derive to Detournement,psychogeographyprovides us with new ways of apprehending our surroundings, transforming the familiar streets of our everyday experience into something new and unexpected. This guide conducts the reader through this process, offering both an explanation and definition of the terms involved, and an analysis of the key figures and their work as well as practical information on psychogeographical groups and organizations.ReviewThis little book does exactly what an introduction should it examines, explains, and whets the appetite. . . a short, but valuable, book. Sunday TelegraphAbout the AuthorMerlin Coverley is the author of London Writing, Occult London, and Utopia.

PUNK
23709
Author: Marcus Blakeston
File Type: epub
Skinhead Trog was in a foul mood when he pushed through the door to The Black Bull, and the rowdy sounds of his favourite band The Cockney Upstarts playing on the jukebox did little to calm him. It was bad enough having his bird yelling and screaming at him and then stamping off in a sulk without having some gobby student call him a rotter. Punk Faction is a new series of short, interlinked stories set in and around a small Yorkshire town in the early 1980s. Written by 1980s fanzine writer and shouting poet Marcus Blakeston, they are populated by an assortment of punks, skinheads, yobs and hooligans. This is life how it really was for Thatchers lost generation. Not suitable for yuppies.

p itemprop=description Anna verhuist met haar ouders van Nijmegen naar Amsterdam. Op haar nieuwe school raakt ze bevriend met Tessa, Wouter, Charlotte en Tessas vriend Julian. Anna en Tessa krijgen een steeds hechtere band, tot ergernis van de anderen. Op een dag verdwijnt Tessa echter plotseling en Anna vertrouwt haar nieuwe vrienden niet meer. Maar welke rol speelt Anna zelf? Wie bedriegt nu wie? En wie weet er meer over Tessas verdwijning? Een bloedstollend verhaal over vriendschap en bedrog, over vertrouwen en leugens, over liefde en jezelf zijn... Recencie(s) Jeugdroman spelend in een hip en gelikt wereldje van jongeren die zitten op het Amsterdams Lyceum. Het is belangrijk vrienden te hebben, er goed uit te zien en erbij te horen door op feestjes mee te doen met het roken van sigaretten, of liever nog van wiet en het drinken van vooral alcohol. Die betrekkelijk harde omgangsvormen in deze jongerencultuur worden realistisch en levensecht beschreven. De enigszins neurotische vriendschappen kunnen gemakkelijk ontaarden, wat dan ook gebeurt. De ondertitel van de jeugdroman is niet voor niets jeugdthriller. De verdwijning van een geliefd lid uit de vriendenkring leidt tot grote ontreddering, onderling wantrouwen en verwijten waarvan de telefonische bedreiging het onoplosbaar sluitstuk vormt. Vlot geschreven roman in drie delen, waarin de schrijfster op het eind knap alle losse verhaallijnen weet te verbinden. In opzet en uitwerking profileert de auteur zich als de Nicci French van de jeugdliteratuur. Vanaf ca. 13 jaar.Redactie (source Bol.com)

MEMOI
92726
Author: Andrew Fuller
File Type: pdf
Clearly modeled on Jonathan Edwards life of David Brainerd, Andrew Fullers memoir for his close friend Samuel Pearce was written out of the conviction that telling the stories of the lives of remarkable Christians is a means of grace for the church. This new critical edition of the memoir is based on the 1808 third edition and documents the way that Fuller modified the text after its original printing in 1800. A substantial introduction discusses the evangelical use of biography, sets the memoir in the context of Fullers literary corpus, and provides an overview of Pearces life, touching on areas not fully treated by Fuller. **

INTIM
82724
Author: Nayoung Aimee Kwon
File Type: pdf
In Intimate Empire Nayoung Aimee Kwon examines intimate cultural encounters between Korea and Japan during the colonial era and their postcolonial disavowal. After the Japanese empires collapse in 1945, new nation-centered histories in Korea and Japan actively erased these once ubiquitous cultural interactions that neither side wanted to remember. Kwon reconsiders these imperial encounters and their contested legacies through the rise and fall of Japanese-language literature and other cultural exchanges between Korean and Japanese writers and artists in the Japanese empire. The contrast between the prominence of these and other forums of colonial-era cultural collaboration between the colonizers and the colonized, and their denial in divided national narrations during the postcolonial aftermath, offers insights into the paradoxical nature of colonial collaboration, which Kwon characterizes as embodying desire and intimacy with violence and coercion. Through the case study of the formation and repression of imperial subjects between Korea and Japan, Kwon considers the imbrications of colonialism and modernity and the entwined legacies of colonial and Cold War histories in the Asia-Pacific more broadly. **

A pathbreaking history of the United States overseas possessions and the true meaning of its empireWe are familiar with maps that outline all fifty states. And we are also familiar with the idea that the United States is an empire, exercising power around the world. But what about the actual territoriesthe islands, atolls, and archipelagosthis country has governed and inhabited?In How to Hide an Empire, Daniel Immerwahr tells the fascinating story of the United States outside the United States. In crackling, fast-paced prose, he reveals forgotten episodes that cast American history in a new light. We travel to the Guano Islands, where prospectors collected one of the nineteenth centurys most valuable commodities, and the Philippines, site of the most destructive event on U.S. soil. In Puerto Rico, Immerwahr shows how U.S. doctors conducted grisly experiments they would never have conducted on the mainland and charts the emergence of independence fighters who would shoot up the U.S. Congress.In the years after World War II, Immerwahr notes, the United States moved away from colonialism. Instead, it put innovations in electronics, transportation, and culture to use, devising a new sort of influence that did not require the control of colonies. Rich with absorbing vignettes, full of surprises, and driven by an original conception of what empire and globalization mean today, How to Hide an Empire is a major and compulsively readable work of history.
