imwe imba - the other room

part 1

By: Munashe Wadzanai,Anne Schlechters,Thomas F. Andersson

Munashe is a bright adolescent girl living in Zimbabwe. She feels a pressure to leave Zimbabwe and to follow most of her peers to a university or to work in the West. However, she is not convinced that this is what she really wants. Via Thomas, an experienced European scientist and manager, initiating a technical Start-up Hub at her boarding school, Munashe comes in contact with Anne. Imwe imba, the other room, is a novel covering the last 2 high-school years of Munashe and Anne in letters between the young women as well as from Thomas to Simon, his now retired personal and business coach. Through the letters, Anne and Simon discover unknown and fascinating aspects of the (southern) African society. Especially, since Thomas includes stories from Nelson, Munashe's grandfather and small holder farmer. Based on the stories and hearing about Munashe's activities in more technical projects, Anne develops a critical attitude towards both the current Western school system and the effectiveness of traditional Western development or aid projects. On the other side, Munashe learns that Europe is not the land of milk and honey for everybody. Munashe and Anne, assisted by Thomas, review the so-called development work activities in emerging markets and propose a promising approach to economically uplift more rural areas. In part 2, the Start-up Hub activities are proven to be sustainable and Munashe asks "where do we want to go?" A design is made for a more ideal (global) society and the issues faced, implementing their ideas, are discussed. The letters in this novel cover a wide spectrum of topics: personal struggles and contemplations, educational and business practices, science and art, geopolitics and historical backgrounds, change management as well as social developments. Each letter is written in an accessible language and underlined with references to allow the reader to explore more. Most of all, "imwe imba" wants to create awareness. Awareness for the wonderful, "real" life in Africa. Awareness that Africa is prosperity. Awareness that our younger generation is perfectly able to initiate change. That a single person can initiate change. That complaining or being upset about various (unacceptable) global happenings or actions is not enough. That a further polarisation and blaming "the others" doesn't help. That we have to do things. That we should not fear change but embrace the changes that are needed to come to the necessary improvements.

The Complete Works of the Brontë Family (Anne, Charlotte, Emily, Branwell and Patrick Brontë)

By: Emily Brontë,Charlotte Brontë,Anne Brontë,Branwell Brontë,Patrick Brontë

This ebook edition contains the unabridged and complete works of the Brontë Family (Anne, Charlotte, Emily, Branwell and Patrick Brontë) with a detailed and functional table of contents. The Brontës were a nineteenth-century literary family associated with the village of Haworth in the West Riding of Yorkshire, England. The sisters, Charlotte (born 21 April 1816, in Thornton near Bradford), Emily (born 30 July 1818 in Thornton), and Anne (born 17 January 1820 in Thornton), are well known as poets and novelists. They originally published their poems and novels under masculine pseudonyms, following the custom of the times practised by female writers. Their stories immediately attracted attention, although not always the best, for their passion and originality. Charlotte's Jane Eyre was the first to know success, while Emily's Wuthering Heights, Anne's The Tenant of Wildfell Hall and other works were later to be accepted as masterpieces of literature. The three sisters and their brother, Branwell, were very close and they developed their childhood imaginations through the collaborative writing of increasingly complex stories. The confrontation with the deaths first of their mother then of their two older sisters marked them profoundly and influenced their writing. Their fame was due as much to their own tragic destinies as to their precociousness. Since their early deaths, and then the death of their father in 1861, they were subject to a following that did not cease to grow. Their home, the parsonage at Haworth in Yorkshire, now the Brontë Parsonage Museum, has become a place of pilgrimage for hundreds of thousands of visitors each year.

Streisand

A Biography

By: Anne Edwards

Streisand: A Biography is much more than the story of the world's greatest living performer, how she got there, and why she remains at the top after three decades, it is also, in Anne Edward's sure hands, a compelling chronicle of a woman's fight to validate her appearance, her talent, and her right to love and be loved. Time and time again Streisand has demonstrated the ability to reinvent herself to keep pace with the continuing changes in musical taste. This updated edition of Edwards's pioneering biography chronicles her public life as a political activist as well as her private life as Mrs. James Brolin.

Spectra - A Book of Poetic Experiments

With the Essay 'Metrical Regularity' by H. P. Lovecraft

By: Anne Knish

Arthur Davison Ficke (1883–1945) was an American playwright, poet, and Japanese art expert. One of America's most famous sonnet writers, he was widely regarded as a “poet's poet” and influenced many other poets of his time. First published in 1916, he co-wrote “Spectra” under the pseudonym Anne Knish. Originally written as a farce of a type of then-famous experimental verse, the assortment of odd poetry surprisingly garnered a great deal of attention and ultimately overshadowed Ficke's traditional prose writing. Contents include: “Opus 1 – Drums”, “Opus 2 – Hope”, “Opus 6 - If I Were Only Dafter”, “Opus 7 - A Bunch of Grapes”, “Opus 9 - Frogs' Legs on a Plate”, “Opus 13 - O Peacock-Feather”, “Opus 14 - I Had to Put Out my Leaves”, “Opus 15 - Despair Comes”, “Opus 16 - The Guillotine”, etc. Other notable works by this author include: “From the Isles: A Series of Songs out of Greece” (1907), “The Happy Princess, and Other Poems” (1907), and “Mrs. Morton of Mexico” (1939). Ragged Hand - Read & Co is republishing this collection of classic poetry now in a new edition complete with the essay “Metrical Regularity” by H. P. Lovecraft.

Time and Emergence in Grammar

Dislocation, topicalization and hanging topic in French talk-in-interaction

By: Simona Pekarek Doehler,Elwys De Stefani,Anne-Sylvie Horlacher

This monograph examines how language contributes to the social coordination of actions in talk-in-interaction. Focusing on a set of frequently used constructions in French (left-dislocation, right-dislocation, topicalization, and hanging topic), the study provides an empirically rich contribution to the understanding of grammar as thoroughly temporal, emergent, and contingent upon its use in social interaction. Based on data from a range of everyday interactions, the authors investigate speakers’ use of these constructions as resources for organizing social interaction, showing how speakers continuously adapt, revise, and extend grammatical trajectories in real time in response to local contingencies. The book is designed to be both informative for the specialized scholar and accessible to the graduate student familiar with conversation analysis and/or interactional linguistics.

Toward a Tenderer Humanity and a Nobler Womanhood

African American Women's Clubs in Turn-of-the-century Chicago

By: Anne M. Knupfer

Toward a Tenderer Humanity and a Nobler Womanhood" explores the complexities of the ideologies and actions behind the slogan 'lifting as we climb.' Knupfer's study describes how middle-class African American women in Chicago used their clubs to respond to both the social welfare needs of a quickly expanding segregated community and their own intellectual and social growth".--Elizabeth Higginbotham, University of Memphis.

The Crisis of American Foreign Policy

Wilsonianism in the Twenty-first Century

By: G. John Ikenberry,Thomas J. Knock,Anne-Marie Slaughter,Tony Smith

Was George W. Bush the true heir of Woodrow Wilson, the architect of liberal internationalism? Was the Iraq War a result of liberal ideas about America's right to promote democracy abroad? In this timely book, four distinguished scholars of American foreign policy discuss the relationship between the ideals of Woodrow Wilson and those of George W. Bush. The Crisis of American Foreign Policy exposes the challenges resulting from Bush's foreign policy and ponders America's place in the international arena. Led by John Ikenberry, one of today's foremost foreign policy thinkers, this provocative collection examines the traditions of liberal internationalism that have dominated American foreign policy since the end of World War II. Tony Smith argues that Bush and the neoconservatives followed Wilson in their commitment to promoting democracy abroad. Thomas Knock and Anne-Marie Slaughter disagree and contend that Wilson focused on the building of a collaborative and rule-centered world order, an idea the Bush administration actively resisted. The authors ask if the United States is still capable of leading a cooperative effort to handle the pressing issues of the new century, or if the country will have to go it alone, pursuing policies without regard to the interests of other governments. Addressing current events in the context of historical policies, this book considers America's position on the global stage and what future directions might be possible for the nation in the post-Bush era.
