Condition: Good. Toumey focuses the tools of his discipline on a group whose distance from t he twentieth-century American mainstream is measured not in decades or mile s but rather in existential understandings about reality. Toumey studies bo th the national scientific creationism movement and the operation of a loca l creationist study group in his state's Research Triangle in the mid-1980s , seeking to understand the underlying beliefs--about morality, the Bible, science itself--that modern scientific creationism embodies, as well as the reasons this "system of cultural meanings" helps many conservative Christi ans "make sense of the realities, anxieties, changes, and uncertainties of life in the United States in the late twentieth century." A perceptive and respectful analysis by a nonbeliever.

Book
Paperback. Condition: Very Good. This book is about lives lived out on the borderlands, lives for which the central interpretative devices of the culture don't quite work. It has a ch ildhood at its centre - my childhood, a personal past - and it is about the disruption of that fifties childhood by the one my mother had lived out be fore me, and the stories she told about it.' Intricate and inspiring, this unusual book uses autobiographical elements t o depict a mother and her daughter and two working-class childhoods (Burnle y in the 1920s, South London in the 1950s) and to find a place for their st ories in history and politics, in psychoanalysis and feminism. 'Provocative and quite dazzling in its ambitions. . . Beautifully written, intellectually compelling'.' Judith Walkowitz 'Carolyn Steedman's 1950s South London childhood was shaped by her mother's longing: "What she actually wanted were real things, real entities, things she materially lacked, things that a culture and a social system withheld from her. When the world didn't deliver the goods, she held the world to blame." When Carolyn Steedman grows up and begins to look for reflections of her and her mother's lives in history, theory, and literature, she finds that "the tradition of cultural criticism that has employed working-class lives, and their rare expression in literature, has made solid and concrete the absence of psychological individuality - of subjectivity." Through an in-depth comparison of personal experience and prevailing political and social science theory on the psychology and attitudes of working-class people, Landscape for a Good Woman challenges an intellectual tradition that.

While this may or may not be the case, the earliest pottery techniques are still used today in many parts of the world, largely by women. This beautifully illustrated book brings to light the often uncelebrated contributions women potters make to their cultures and describes the practical details of their craft. ---Moira Vincentelli proposes that a women s tradition in ceramics is one in which pottery making is a gendered activity intimately connected with female identity. Such work is easily taken for granted as mere everyday household equipment with no status as art. Vincentelli argues, however, that value is not intrinsic to an object, and a simple cooking pot or water jar can take on high importance if the significance for owners and users is considered -- water out of a particular jar is said to taste sweeter, and a cooking pot is often buried with its owner, or broken when someone dies. ---Vincentelli guides the reader through these traditions continent by continent with beautiful, detailed maps and stunning color photographs from around the world. Central to her argument is the proposition that, far from disappearing, as is so often claimed, these traditions are adapting and accommodating to new conditions. Often potters are the bearers of cultural identity in an increasingly globalized world. This book will appeal not only to those interested in ceramics, but also to those with an interest in non-western traditions, women s studies, material culture, archaeology, and social anthropology"---, any image directly beside this listing is the actual book and not a generic photo, ///NOT SIGNED ---GUARANTEED to be AVAILABLE/// ---sizes are approximate (generally within 1/8 inch)--- Size: 9w x 11h Inches.
