Blackening Canada by Paul Barrett Pdf

Focusing on the work of black, diasporic writers in Canada, particularly Dionne Brand, Austin Clarke, and Tessa McWatt, Blackening Canada investigates the manner in which literature can transform conceptions of nation and diaspora. Through a consideration of literary representation, public discourse, and the language of political protest, Paul Barrett argues that Canadian multiculturalism uniquely enables black diasporic writers to transform national literature and identity. These writers seize upon the ambiguities and tensions within Canadian discourses of nation to rewrite the nation from a black, diasporic perspective, converting exclusion from the national discourse into the impetus for their creative endeavours. Within this context, Barrett suggests, debates over who counts as Canadian, the limits of tolerance, and the breaking points of Canadian multiculturalism serve not as signs of multiculturalism’s failure but as proof of both its vitality and of the unique challenges that black writing in Canada poses to multicultural politics and the nation itself.

At the Heart of the Universe by Samuel Shem Pdf

The story of two mothers and a father in love with the same daughter, Samuel Shem's At the Heart of the Universe is an epic novel set deep in rural China against the backdrop of an ancient mountain monastery during the time of the one-child-per-family policy. Inspired by the author's experiences as parent of an adopted child, it describes the drama of adoption and the journey of loss and rebirth that can happen when a daughter brings together her adopted mother and father with her birth mother high on a mountaintop. Set in 1991 in Changsha, capital of Hunan province, as a Chinese woman abandons her one-month-old daughter in a pile of celery in a busy market, and then shifting to Changsha ten years later as the daughter returns with her adopted American parents, the story moves across southern China until, high atop Emei San, one of China's "sacred mountains" with a Buddhist temple, the four are brought together in the wilderness—a perilous and explosive time that unleashes their heartbreak and suffering and, remarkably, transcends it to shared compassion, and new beginnings.

Rethinking Thought by Laura Otis Pdf

"In 'Rethinking Thought, ' Laura Otis gives readers a multi-dimensional tour through the minds of thirty creative thinkers to illustrate how the experience of productive thought can vary across the spectrum. Focusing on individual experiences with planning, problem-solving, reflecting, remembering and forging new ideas, Otis approaches the question of what thinking is by analyzing variations in the way thinking feels. Drawing from her own experience as a neurocscientist-turned literary scholar, Otis aptly juxtaposes creative thinkers' insights with recent neuroscientific discoveries centering on visual mental imagery, verbal language, and thought. By offering distinct psychological portraits of famous figures like controversial novelist Salman Rushdie and engineer Temple Grandin, Otis treats scientists and artists with equal respect, and creates a fascinating dialogue in which neuroscientific findings and introspection engage with each other as equal partners. 'Rethinking Thought' encourages readers to resist the temptation of classifying people as 'visual' or 'verbal, ' and to instead consider how thinkers combine both skill-sets and how their abilities can be further developed as a result. By showing how greatly individual experiences of thought can vary, this book aims to help readers in all proessions better understand the diverse pool of people with whom they work and interact with"--Page 4 of cover.

The Thirst of God by Wendy Farley Pdf

"There is a rich tradition of wonderful women and other contemplatives who are great resources for thinking differently about Christianity. They emphasized divine love, human compassion, and the radical possibilities of contemplative practices. They were not afraid to criticize the church and indeed thought of their challenge as crucial to their faith. We do not have to lose faith with the beautiful wisdom of this story of intimate and compassionate love, dwelling among us and within us, if we do not want to." —from the acknowledgments and note to readers To those seeking a more open, progressive approach to Christian faith, the Christian past can sometimes seem like a desert, an empty space devoid of encouragement or example. Yet in the latter years of the Middle Ages a quiet flowering of a more accessible, positive approach to Christian belief took place among a group of female mystics, those who emphasized an immediate, nonhierarchical experience of the divine. In this enlightening volume, Wendy Farley eloquently brings the work of three female mystics—Marguerite Porete, Mechthild of Magdeburg, and Julian of Norwich—into creative conversation with contemporary Christian life and thought. From alternatives to the standard, violent understandings of the atonement, to new forms of contemplation and prayer, these figures offer us relevant insights through a theology centered on God's love and compassion. Farley demonstrates how these women can help to refresh and expand our awareness of the depth of divine love that encompasses all creation and dwells in the cavern of every human heart.
