Displaced by Disaster

Recovery and Resilience in a Globalizing World

By: Ann-Margaret Esnard,Alka Sapat

Displacement has traditionally been conceptualized as a phenomenon that results from conflict or other disruptions in developing or unstable countries. Hurricane Katrina shattered this notion and highlighted the various dilemmas of population displacement in the United States. The dilemmas stem from that of inconsistent terminology and definitions; lack of efforts to quantify displacement risk potential and that factor displacement vulnerability into community plans; lack of understanding of differential needs of "displacees" especially during long-term recovery periods; and policy and institutional responses (or lack thereof) especially as it relates to post-disaster sheltering and housing. Incorporating relevant examples, cases, and policies Esnard and Sapat look at the experience of other countries and how the international community has dealt with hundreds of thousands of individuals who have been forced to leave their homes. Displaced by Disaster addresses such issues from a planning and policy perspective informed by scholarship in disciplines such as emergency management; political science; sociology and anthropology. It is ideal for students and practitioners working in the areas of disaster management, planning, public administration and policy, housing, and the many disciplines connected to disaster issues.

Stages of Play

Shakespeare's Theatrical Energies in Elizabethan Performance

By: Michael W. Shurgot,Margaret E. Owens

Rather than arguing for a "unified response" among spectators, as many scholars do, the book argues that when the plays are performed on thrust stages, the audience's reactions are actually seminal to the plays' intended dramatic effects.

Remembering Margaret Mitchell, Author of Gone with the Wind

By: Lucille Thompson Love,Linda Bourgeois Davidson,Mary Ellen DeBarbieri Kozuch,Margaret Mitchell,Lucille Alladio Busey

A collection of letters between Margaret Mitchell & Lucille Busey providing glimpses into the lives of these women & their families during the war years, 1938-1946. "Scarlett O'Hara may be the best-known fictional heroine in history, but what about the woman who created her? In these letters we gain much insight into the thinking & beliefs of Margaret Mitchell. We learn that, in stark contrast to the vain & self-seeking Scarlett, Mitchell was deeply concerned about others. This collection is MUST reading for those who want a personal glimpse into the character & thinking of the creator of the most successful novel of all time."--James A. Autry, Author of: Love & Profit, Nights Under a Tin Roof, Life After Mississippi. "Much has been written about Margaret Mitchell, author of the bestselling novel of all times. But little is known about the Margaret Mitchell who was passionately concerned about the education & well-being of the people of her beloved Southland. This small but significant grouping of letters & other documents illustrates, in a charming fashion, Mitchell's love for libraries & her even stronger love for the people of her native Georgia."--Thomas L. Camden, Head, Hargrett Rare Book & Manuscript Library, University of Georgia.
