To Prove I'm Not Forgot

Living and Dying in a Victorian City

By: Sylvia M Barnard

With the growth of English cities during the Industrial Revolution came a booming population too vast for churchyards. Beckett Street Cemetery in Leeds was to become the first municipal cemetery in the country. This study relates how the cemetery was started and run, and describes the developing feuds between denominations. The author draws upon newspaper articles, archive material and municipal records to tell the stories of many of the people who lie there, from tiny infants, soldiers and victims of crime to those who perished in the great epidemics of Victorian England. The study throws new light on the occupations and pastimes of the inhabitants of Victorian cities, their problems with law and order, their attitudes to children, education and religious provision.

Spiritual Connections

How to Find Spirituality Throughout All the Relationships in Your Life

By: Sylvia Browne

Have you ever wondered why some relationships are wonderful and others are just catastrophic and tragic? Why do we get along with some people and continually engage in bitter fighting with others? In this fascinating and helpful book, internationally renowned psychic Sylvia Browne examines why we form connections with certain individuals ... for better or worse. From the lifelong comfort of a loving marriage to the agony of a brief encounter that ends in heartbreak, she reveals why we have joyful and happy relationships on the one hand, and chaotic and painful ones on the other. Sylvia takes us on a remarkable excursion that covers all the different types of relationships we'll experience in life. From childhood to our golden years, she helps us see why we form both beneficial and challenging unions; and she also explores how the themes and charts of our lives can interact with those of others in both positive and negative ways - creating situations that can nurture us for years or doom us to disaster. Sylvia enables us to come to a true understanding of why we're attracted to some people and turned off by others. By utilizing her marvelous insights, we can all learn how to find spirituality in every connection we make (and separate the wheat from the chaff) in order to live happier and more fulfilling lives.

Thank You, Pakistan

Memoirs of a 1971 War Survivor

By: Sylvia Pandit

Yes, I want to thank Pakistan for being so brutal with us since its birth in 1947 until the birth of Bangladesh in 1971. If Pakistan (then West Pakistan) hadn’t been so brutal and unfair, the history of our country Bangladesh (then East Pakistan) and the world would have been quite different. We would not have Bongobondhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, our Father of the Nation. The world would not have observed February 21st as International Mother Language Day. Liberation War of 1971 would not have occurred - no Independence Day, Victory Day or a new country Bangladesh. We also would not have so many Bengali poets, writers and leaders. Our music is so sweet – we would have lost that too. If Pakistan had not attempted to forcefully replace our mother tongue Bangla (Bengali) with Urdu, things might have been very different. Their atrocities against our language, culture, people and freedom made us love our language and country much more. It made us loving Nazrul Geeti, Rabindra Sangeet, Lalon Geeti, Hason Rajar Gaan and all other Bengali literal music, songs and folklores even more. Pakistan did not succeed in making us forget or abandon such beautiful melodies, songs and poetries, but made us love them even more. Pakistan unintentionally helped us love our country Bangladesh more, love our language Bangla more, love our culture and heritage more; and that made me thankful to Pakistan.

Accessories After the Fact

The Warren Commission, the Authorities & the Report on the JFK Assassination

By: Sylvia Meagher

Originally published in 1967, Meagher’s masterful dissection of the Warren Report, based on the Warren Commission’s own evidence, has stood the test of time. In some cases, declassifications of government records have corroborated the author’s suspicions and analyses, such as her amazing assertion that Oswald had never actually been charged with Kennedy’s murder, despite sworn testimony to the contrary. Meagher’s book raises serious questions not only about Oswald’s guilt in the JFK assassination and related crimes, such as the Tippit murder and the Walker shooting, but also about the methods and honesty of the Warren Commission, the FBI, and various Dallas police and other officials. When the Church Committee first began to re-examine the Warren Commission and its relationship with intelligence agencies in 1975, investigators were shocked by what they discovered. In Accessories After the Fact, Sylvia Meagher delivers a blistering blow to the credibility of the Warren Report, and decades after its original publication researchers and readers are still discovering what made her work so important.

Patriarchy at Work

Patriarchal and Capitalist Relations in Employment, 1800-1984

By: Sylvia Walby

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

Patriarchy at Work

Patriarchal and Capitalist Relations in Employment, 1800-1984

By: Sylvia Walby

The concept of 'patriarchy' is one which signals a sharp divide between traditions of feminist thought. Sylvia Walby attempts to conceptualize 'patriarchy' in a way that takes account not only of the complexity of relationships of gender, but also of the subtleties of the interconnections of patriarchy and capitalism. She rejects those accounts which treat patriarchy as a unified set of relations, or which confine the site of patriarchy to any one privileged sphere such as the family. Instead, she elaborates a novel view of patriarchy as a set of 'relatively autonomous relations', the connections between which are spelled out through a variety of detailed case studies. In contrast to many other views of 'capitalist patriarchy', Sylvia Walby characterizes the relationship between capitalism and patriarchy as a relationship, not of harmony and mutual accommodation, but of tension and conflict. This thesis is substantiated through a comparative historical analysis of three contrasting areas of employment: cotton textiles, engineering and clerical work. These analyses show the shortcomings of much conventional literature in sociology, history and economics on women's employment, which pays insufficient attention to the independence of patriarchal relations. The book draws upon sociological, historical, economic and geographic materials to argue for an understanding of gender relations in terms of the specific tensions and compromises between patriarchal and capitalist relations. Exploring the impact of the state on patterns of employment and unemployment completes a book rich in theoretical and empirical analysis. Patriarchy at Work will be recognized as a major contribution to feminist thought and the social sciences.

Adventures of a Psychic

The Fascinating and Inspiring True-Life Story of One of America's Most Successful Clairvoyants

By: Sylvia Browne

In this uniquely fascinating book, world-renowned psychic Sylvia Browne recounts her aptivating life as a clairvoyant, telling of her earliest "readings" as a young child in Kansas City, and of her first contact with "Francine", her spirit guide. In engrossing detail, Sylvia tells how her "gift" has assisted police departments in their search for missing children and dangerous criminals -- and how her predictions of deaths, plane crashes, and momentous world events were sometimes heeded -- or tragically ignored. But more than anything else, this is the remarkable story of one woman's psychic odyssey, for it offers illuminating insight into how we can better understand ourselves and our own psychic abilities.

Her Story in Four Centuries

By: Sylvia Webber

This heart-warming book of true stories is about women who lived during four different centuries. It testifies to the strength of mind of women forced to cope with wars and illness while protecting and educating their children, and it shows how family members worked together as the British Empire spread. Margaret Rudston was caught up in the English Civil War. When her husband died, she had to fight in court to keep the family property. Margaret’s solicitor gave her copies of poems by John Donne, which now reside in the Folger Library in Washington, D.C. Maria Barstow endured twenty years of wars in Danzig (now Gdansk in Poland), where her house was inhabited at different times by the future queen of Holland, the French army, Napoleon, and the Russian army. Some of her children were sent to England. Mrs. Jones and her children fled from Ireland when the French landed to support a rebellion. The daughters of the hymn writer, the Rev. Thomas Kelly, lived in Ireland through illness and the famine. They learned painting from Maria Spilsbury and wrote memoirs. Joan Webber taught in Malaya (now Malaysia), and escaped to Australia with her children during World War II, while her husband was fighting the Japanese. The family later settled in Tasmania. One of her children, author Sylvia Webber writes how war, separation, and boarding school affected her. These stories show families pulling together, helping the human spirit to survive.

Elizabeth, the demon princess

By: Sylvia Schwetz

Elizabeth Baker appears to be a completely normal child who enjoys a sheltered and happy childhood and youth with her father. She is ambitious and hard-working and resolutely pursues her goal of becoming a doctor, which she achieves. Her father is always by her side and supports her in all her endeavors. Elizabeth is happy. The only thing that puzzles her one day is that she can't remember her childhood or her mother. And why does her father sometimes behave so strangely? Wasn't there someone scurrying through his study that she was never allowed to enter? But he has an explanation for everything.

Grappling with Legacy

Rhode Island’S Brown Family and the American Philanthropic Impulse

By: Sylvia Brown

This is a fascinating and intellectually honest work about a remarkable family that has played a major role in the history of Providence and Rhode Island. Sylvia Brown has made a tremendous contribution in writing this wonderful book. It is clearly a labor of love, and we should all be grateful to her for it. Vartan Gregorian, President of Carnegie Corporation of New York, former President of Brown University A splendid work of history---an honest, clearly written, and solidly based account of the private and public lives through four centuries of one of Americas most important and fascinating families. Gordon Wood, Pulitzer Prize for History, Alva O. Way University Professor and Professor of History Emeritus at Brown University What fuels a familys compulsion for philanthropy? Self-interest? A feeling of guilt? A sense of genuine altruism? Charitable giving is such an intrinsic part of American culture that its story deserves to be told, not in a dry, academic tome but through the tale of a colorful, multifaceted family. Since 1638, the Browns of Rhode Island have provided community leaders in one of the nations most idiosyncratic states. In the 18th century, they excelled at maritime commerce, were pioneers of the American industrial revolution, and adorned their hometown of Providence with public buildings, churches, and a university. In the 19th century, they pioneered the modern notion that universities can be forces for social good. And, in the 20th century, they sought to transform the human experience through great art and architecture. Over three hundred years, the Browns also wrestled with societys toughest issuesslavery, immigration, child labor, the dispossessedand with their own internal family tensions. Author Sylvia Brown tells the story of the ten generations of Browns that came before her with warmth and lucidity. Today, in an era of wealth creation and philanthropic innovation not seen since the Gilded Age, Grappling with Legacy provides fascinating insights into a unique aspect of Americas heritage.

Student Debt and Political Participation

Student Debt and Political Participation

By: Sylvia Nissen

This book examines how student debt informs the political action and participation of university students. The scale of student debt is unprecedented, particularly in the English-speaking world. In these democracies, debt has become an increasingly integral part of student life for many young people to enable participation in education and the wider economy. Using New Zealand as a case study, the author challenges existent assumptions about student attitudes towards loans by analysing how students speak about the impact of debt on themselves and their peers, including politically. Listening to these perspectives will provide a more nuanced insight into the underlying tensions and challenges of participating politically in a context of rising debt.

Come Shouting to Zion

African American Protestantism in the American South and British Caribbean to 1830

By: Sylvia R. Frey,Betty Wood

The conversion of African-born slaves and their descendants to Protestant Christianity marked one of the most important social and intellectual transformations in American history. Come Shouting to Zion is the first comprehensive exploration of the processes by which this remarkable transition occurred. Using an extraordinary array of archival sources, Sylvia Frey and Betty Wood chart the course of religious conversion from the transference of traditional African religions to the New World through the growth of Protestant Christianity in the American South and British Caribbean up to 1830. Come Shouting to Zion depicts religious transformation as a complex reciprocal movement involving black and white Christians. It highlights the role of African American preachers in the conversion process and demonstrates the extent to which African American women were responsible for developing distinctive ritual patterns of worship and divergent moral values within the black spiritual community. Finally, the book sheds light on the ways in which, by serving as a channel for the assimilation of Western culture into the slave quarters, Protestant Christianity helped transform Africans into African Americans.

Price of Fame

The Honorable Clare Boothe Luce

Price of Fame

The Honorable Clare Boothe Luce

By: Sylvia Jukes Morris

“I hope I shall have ambition until the day I die,” Clare Boothe Luce told her biographer Sylvia Jukes Morris. Price of Fame, the concluding volume of the life of an exceptionally brilliant polymath, chronicles Luce’s progress from her arrival on Capitol Hill through her career as a diplomat, prolific journalist, and magnetic public speaker, as well as a playwright, screenwriter, pioneer scuba diver, early experimenter in psychedelic drugs, and grande dame of the GOP in the Reagan era. Tempestuously married to Henry Luce, the powerful publisher of Time Inc., she endured his infidelities while pursuing her own, and remained a practiced vamp well into her crowded later years, during which she strengthened her friendships with Winston Churchill, Somerset Maugham, John F. Kennedy, Evelyn Waugh, Lyndon Johnson, Salvador Dalí, Richard Nixon, William F. Buckley, Ronald Reagan, and countless other celebrities. Sylvia Jukes Morris is the only writer to have had complete access to Mrs. Luce’s prodigious collection of public and private papers. In addition, she had unique access to her subject, whose death at eighty-four ended a life that for variety of accomplishment qualifies Clare Boothe Luce for the title of “Woman of the Century.” Praise for Price of Fame “The twentieth-century history of this country, seen through the eyes and actions of a remarkable woman . . . one of the most fabulous, intimate biographies I have ever read.”—Liz Smith, Chicago Tribune “The epic Price of Fame is a thrilling account of one of the twentieth century's most intriguing and ambitious society figures.”—Amanda Foreman, bestselling author of Georgiana: Duchess of Devonshire “Delicious . . . In Price of Fame . . . Sylvia Jukes Morris takes up the story she began in Rage for Fame. . . . Both books are models of the biographer’s art—meticulously researched, sophisticated, fair-minded and compulsively readable.”—Edward Kosner, The Wall Street Journal “Clare Boothe Luce [was] one of the twentieth century’s most ambitious, unstoppable and undeniably ingenious characters. . . . This full, warts-and-all biography hauls her back into the limelight and does her full justice.”—Janet Maslin, The New York Times “Poignant and profound . . . nothing short of a triumph.”—Marion Elizabeth Rodgers, The Washington Times “Compelling . . . [a] brilliant biography.”—Peter Tonguette, The Christian Science Monitor

Changing Landscapes in Urban British Churchyards

By: Sylvia E. Thornbush,Mary J. Thornbush

his interdisciplinary reference work presents a linked consideration, to the reader, of physical- cultural (physicocultural) representations of headstones located in urban churchyards in England and Scotland. The geomorphology of landscapes relevant to these locations is explained with the help of detailed case studies from Oxford and Edinburgh. The integrated physicocultural approach addresses the conservation of the archaeological record and presents a cross-temporal perspective of landscape change – of the headstones as landforms in their landscape (as part of deathscapes). The physical record (of headstones) is examined in the context of both cultural representation and change. In this way, an integrated approach is employed that connects the physical (natural) and cultural (social) records kept by historians and archeologists over the years. Changing Landscapes in Urban British Churchyards is of interest to geomorphologists, historians and scholars interested in understanding landscaping studies and cultural nuance of specific historical urban sites in England and Scotland.
