Aamie's War

Women and Children On the German Homefront

By: Marga Dieter

What they're saying about AAMIE'S WAR "Profoundly moving I couldn't put it down!" Zella Brown, Cofounder of One By One Jewish German Reconciliation Through Dialogue "A compelling and sensitive personal account, at times charming and tender, at times grimly upsetting Honest, painful and necessary, this book offers an important perspective rarely read in America. An important addition to the human saga of war and the tragic condition of mankind in all it's paradoxical complexity." Lawrence Lowenthal, Director of the New England Region American Jewish Committee "Marga Dieter captures so well the thinking and heart of a little German girl caught in the ravages of the Second World War." Joan Ecklein, Former Co-Chair of the Boston Chapter Women's International League for Peace and Freedom "These poignant experiences of an innocent, bright and lively young girl, acutely remembered by an adult woman, and told with sensitivity and a wonderful sense of drama, will fill the void left by the silent generation of Germany's war children." Barbara Eskin, Moderator of the German Book Club Goethe Institute, Boston Bombs, destruction and emotional devastation form the backdrop for Aamie's childhood on the homefront in Germany during World War II. What might seem crushing to most little girls is just everyday life for her. In a neighborhood where the walls are plastered with posters proclaiming "THE ENEMY IS ALWAYS LISTENING!" and people live by the secrets they keep, any revelation of her mother's sentiments against the Nazis is a danger to her family's very survival. Her father, in the Navy, is eventually captured and serves as a POW, until Aamie is nine years old. Her mother's struggle to maintain their family and raise two teenage boys, who are members of the mandatory Hitler Youth program, within the turmoil of war-torn Germany drives her to physical and nervous breakdown. Yet Aamie, with the support of her Greek Chorus of celluloid dolls, ponders and overcomes these obstacles with an irrepressible tom-boy spirit. An intensely told story of a wartime childhood, this book is a reminder of how children's emotional lives play out against the horror and destruction of war.

Karl Barth's Dialogue with Catholicism in Göttingen and Münster

Its Significance for His Doctrine of God

By: Amy Marga

Amy Marga studies Karl Barth's early encounter with Roman Catholic theology during the 1920s, especially seen in his seminal set of dogmatic lectures given in Gottingen, and his second set of dogmatic lectures, given in Munster and which remain unpublished. Her analysis demonstrates his search for a concept of God's objectivity - Gegenstandlichkeit - which would not be dependent upon philosophically-laden concepts such as the analogia entis, but which would rather be anchored in God's being alone. The author shows that Roman Catholicism, especially the thought of Erich Przywara, became the key interlocutor that helped Barth bring this clarity to his doctrine of revelation and the triune God.

Breaking Down the Monolingual Wall

Essential Shifts for Multilingual Learners′ Success

By: Ivannia Soto,Sydney Snyder,Margarita Espino Calderón,Margo Gottlieb,Andrea Honigsfeld,Joan Lachance,Marga Marshall,David Nungaray,RubÃ Flores,Lyn Scott

Your guide to culturally and linguistically sustaining practices in your dual language classroom and school. It’s time to set the record straight: Multilingualism is a tremendous asset that must be nurtured and valued and the most effective pathway to multilingualism is dual language education. Despite significant evidence attesting to the cognitive, social/emotional, and economic benefits of multilingualism, the majority of our classrooms and schools are monolingual. Encouragingly, recent shifts in state policies have increased the demand for dual language programming in our schools. This increased momentum brings new challenges, including the need for more bilingually authorized teachers, high-quality instructional resources, and accurate assessment and accountability in the target languages of instruction. With contributions from ten experts in multilingual education, Breaking Down the Monolingual Wall outlines the systemic and pedagogical approaches necessary for successful multilingual and dual language programs. The book supports educators to: Shift the paradigm from one that is subtractive and deficit-based to one that is additive and assets-based Embed culturally and linguistically sustaining practices in their instruction Understand how to promote multilingualism in the context of teaching academic content Develop assessments as, for, and of learning in multiple languages. Lead high-quality dual language schools and programs Recruit and retain highly qualified bilingual educators Offering a comprehensive overview of bilingual policies and historical context all educators should understand, Breaking Down the Monolingual Wall is an invaluable guide to creating dual language learning environments that build on the precious assets of our multilingual students and families.

Intelligent Love

The Story of Clara Park, Her Autistic Daughter, and the Myth of the Refrigerator Mother

By: Marga Vicedo

Winner of the History of Science Society's 2022 Davis Prize How one mother challenged the medical establishment and misconceptions about autistic children and their parents In the early 1960s, Massachusetts writer and homemaker Clara Park and her husband took their 3-year-old daughter, Jessy, to a specialist after noticing that she avoided connection with others. Following the conventional wisdom of the time, the psychiatrist diagnosed Jessy with autism and blamed Clara for Jessy’s isolation. Experts claimed Clara was the prototypical “refrigerator mother,” a cold, intellectual parent who starved her children of the natural affection they needed to develop properly. Refusing to accept this, Clara decided to document her daughter’s behaviors and the family’s engagement with her. In 1967, she published her groundbreaking memoir challenging the refrigerator mother theory and carefully documenting Jessy’s development. Clara’s insights and advocacy encouraged other parents to seek education and support for their autistic children. Meanwhile, Jessy would work hard to expand her mother’s world, and ours. Drawing on previously unexamined archival sources and firsthand interviews, science historian Marga Vicedo illuminates the story of how Clara Park and other parents fought against medical and popular attitudes toward autism while presenting a rich account of major scientific developments in the history of autism in the US. Intelligent Love is a fierce defense of a mother’s right to love intelligently, the value of parents’ firsthand knowledge about their children, and an individual’s right to be valued by society.

Autism

A Holistic Approach

By: Marga Hogenboom

Educating and caring for an autistic child is a severely difficult task, too often associated with frustration and disappointment. As a result, the inner development of children with autism is at times considered to be beyond the reach of parents and carers. This book challenges that assumption, exploring case studies where therapy based on a holistic approach has resulted in marked improvements in the autistic child's behaviour and social integration. With an extended holistic programme, autistic children discover inner self-awareness and self-recognition, leading to first steps in relationships and social skills. The authors describe in detail their own practical experiences, as well as the findings of other experts in the field. This new third edition covers recent developments in diagnostic methods and approaches to treatment, including new case studies and a new chapter looking at the sensory aspect of autism and Sensory Integration Therapy. Well-researched and movingly written, this book has an essential, positive message for all those involved in the care and education of autistic children.

The Nature and Nurture of Love

From Imprinting to Attachment in Cold War America

By: Marga Vicedo

The notion that maternal care and love will determine a child’s emotional well-being and future personality has become ubiquitous. In countless stories and movies we find that the problems of the protagonists—anything from the fear of romantic commitment to serial killing—stem from their troubled relationships with their mothers during childhood. How did we come to hold these views about the determinant power of mother love over an individual’s emotional development? And what does this vision of mother love entail for children and mothers? In The Nature and Nurture of Love, Marga Vicedo examines scientific views about children’s emotional needs and mother love from World War II until the 1970s, paying particular attention to John Bowlby’s ethological theory of attachment behavior. Vicedo tracks the development of Bowlby’s work as well as the interdisciplinary research that he used to support his theory, including Konrad Lorenz’s studies of imprinting in geese, Harry Harlow’s experiments with monkeys, and Mary Ainsworth’s observations of children and mothers in Uganda and the United States. Vicedo’s historical analysis reveals that important psychoanalysts and animal researchers opposed the project of turning emotions into biological instincts. Despite those substantial criticisms, she argues that attachment theory was paramount in turning mother love into a biological need. This shift introduced a new justification for the prescriptive role of biology in human affairs and had profound—and negative—consequences for mothers and for the valuation of mother love.

Passport Husband

By: Marga D'andurain,Aurore Julien

Why write, when you can't write ? Why talk about oneself for three hundred pages when the self is hateful ? Because all the French and foreign press, after announcing my death by hanging, told unbelievable things about me. Because, as a result of certain coincidences and in a total misunderstanding of my actions, the General Security and the Intelligence Service of Syria have built up an abominable file on me which has ruined me morally and financially and of which I cannot obtain communication, but which many of my relations in Paris, and even the Basque deputy of the Basses-Pyrénées, boast of having seen at the Foreign Affairs, thus peddling the most slanderous rumors about me." The enigmatic and sulphurous adventurer Marga d'Andurain, tells the story of her epic journey to the Middle East. In 1933, wanting to be the first European to enter Mecca, she converts to Islam and concludes a white marriage with a Muslim in order to enter the holy city. But her "passport husband" is murdered and she is accused... Marga d'Andurain: murderer or reckless adventurer ? Originally published in 1947, "Passport Husband" is translated into English for the first time. The book also includes a biography of the author.

Hardcore Maternity

By: Marga Castaño,Esther de la Rosa

La maternidad es hardcore, aunque se empeñen en decirte lo contrario. Un cómic sobre la sacrosanta misión de ser madre y no morir en el intento. Hardcore maternity narra las aventuras y desventuras de un grupo de madres en Nueva York. Pero no son precisamente historias de mamás preocupadas por qué cremita de pañal irrita menos el culo de su hijo o por cuál de todas las papillas del mercado es la más saludable, sino más bien una panda de mamás desenfadadas, mordaces y, a ratos, un poco caóticas, que hacen malabares para encontrar un espacio en el que ser mujer, individuo y madre sean opciones vitales compatibles. Reseñas: «Mamás que cuentan con un perfil en Tinder, mamás que se emborrachan y sufren mañanas de resaca, mamás que tienen ganas de ligar y de disfrutar de relaciones sexuales... Todas estas madres aparecen reflejadas en el libro Hardcore maternity, un cómic ácido y mordaz sobre las experiencias de un grupo de amigas que tienen hijos y viven en Nueva York.» Ana del Barrio, El Mundo «En Hardcore Maternity el lector se enfrentará a viñetas muy crudas [...]. Una reivindicación feminista de que antes que nada son mujeres.» Pilar Martín, El Progreso «Para alivianar la insoportable gravedad de ser madre divorciada, Esther de la Rosa y Marga Castaño lanzan dardos sanadores de humor cáustico.» Javier Villuendas, ABC «Un cómic que trata de dar una versión divertida e irónica sobre la maternidad.» A. Soto, Diario de Tarragona «Esther de la Rosa y Marga Castaño vuelven a la carga de una forma directa, honesta y cargada de humor... Un cómic que causa furor.» El País Semanal «La maternidad a los 40 ya no es lo que era. [...] Y así lo refleja Hardcore Maternity (Lumen), un cómic con una visión divertida e irónica sobre la maternidad.» Álvaro Soto, Las provincias «Un grupo de madres caóticas, mordaces, que tratan de conciliar la maternidad con el hecho de ser mujeres independientes. Seáis madres o no, os recomiendo Hardcore maternity.» Victoria Mera, Libros y literatura «Ha llamado particularmente mi atención Hardcore Maternity (Lumen), [...] una divertida (y muy mordaz) historia sobre un grupo de jóvenes madres neoyorquinas luchando para que las trampas de la maternidad no sepulten sus otras facetas como mujeres.» Manuel Rodríguez Rivero, El País «[...] Conversaciones reales que llevadas al cómic se convierten en una reivindicación feminista de que, como apuntan, "antes que nada somos mujeres". Por eso, según reconocen, no les importa que sean tildadas de feministas, porque lo que quieren dejar claro es que la única misión de una mujer desde que nace "no es ser madre".» Pilar Martín, EFE En los blogs... «No dejen de adquirir este sorprendente trabajo.» Blog Estrellas 5
