The Power of Names by Mavis Himes Pdf

Our proper name is as much a part of us as our own skin. It travels with us like a passport, testifying to our unique presence on this earth. The articulation of our name rolls off our tongue with ease and familiarity, yet we rarely turn and examine the part our name plays in what makes us who we are. Our first name reflects the hopes and dreams of our parents and family, our culture, and our own sense of self, while our surname carries our ancestral history, a branding of both affiliation and transmission. In The Power of Names, Mavis Himes explores both the profound ambivalence that many of us feel toward our names and the conscious and unconscious impact our names have on our lives, sometimes for good and sometimes for ill. She explores such questions as: What do our names mean? How do they influence our destiny? What does it mean to lose or change our name - and what does this reveal or conceal about who we are? Himes engages readers through a skillful interweaving of reflections on her own Jewish surname, shortened by immigrant ancestors to accommodate a new life in a new world; the historical and cultural impact of a group on naming practices; the various ways different cultures celebrate the naming of infants; the power of names in myth and legend; and the impact of names on friends and patients from her practice. Readers are invited to consider their own names, the names they give others, and the names of those around them as a starting point for understanding the stories of our lives.

The Power of a Name by Clancy M Dixon Pdf

Have you ever wondered how your favorite teams acquired their nickname; or the statistics regarding your favorite players. Power of a Name delivers the information right to your fingertips. Consider the Yankees: the origin of the name was actually an expression invented by Dutch immigrants. Their accent made saying, "Jack Cheese" sound like they were uttering, "Jan-kee". The Pittsburg Pirates, meanwhile, were so called because their owner was accused of stealing players from other teams. Did you know Ty Cobb ran the 100-yard dash in ten seconds, and Hall of Fame pitcher, Walter Johnson, is believed to have thrown pitches in excess of 100-mph. Andy Rooney of Sixty Minutes said, "We have the Jets and Mets, what do all these names mean anyway." The answers are in this book which associates team names with some of the most intriguing events, people, and moments in American history. Power of a Name is an entertaining fact filled book full of rich trivia. Max Morgan, Fox Sports News

Strangers by Rebecca Tamás Pdf

LONGLISTED FOR THE 2021 RATHBONES FOLIO PRIZE In Strangers, Rebecca Tamás explores where the human and nonhuman meet, and why this delicate connection just might be the most important relationship of our times. From ‘On Watermelon’ to ‘On Grief’, Tamás’s essays are exhilarating to read in their radical and original exploration of the links between the environmental, the political, the folkloric and the historical. From thinking stones, to fairgrounds, from colliding planets to transformative cockroaches, Tamás’s lyrical perspective takes the reader on a journey between body, land and spirit—exploring a new ecological vision for our fractured, fragile world. Essays: On Watermelon • On Hospitality • On Panpscychism • On Greenness • On Pain • On Grief • On Mystery A fascinating, lyrical exploration of the eco-political, from human and non-human bodies to landscapes. Tamás’ essays are deeply rooted in folklore and the fragility of existence. A stunning work of enquiry and eloquence. —­­­ Sinéad Gleeson So full of insight, compassion and reason. – Anthony Anaxagorou Rebecca Tamás creates a shifting perspective in her essays which illuminates while giving unexpected pleasure. – Amit Chaudhuri Bursting with intellectual generosity.

Strangers is an intricate exploration of environmental precarity, literary strangeness, and the importance of the nonhuman. —­­­ Naomi Booth Strangers is a work of generous, optimistic curiosity, one which forgoes the easy promise of a world to come and invites us instead into a relationship of charged “feral intimacy” with a world that is already here. —­­­ Sam Byers Tamás builds a world so intimate for us here, teaching us how to unlearn and relearn, relive and relove. – Supriya Kaur Dhaliwal This text is an echoing, unstoppable bell. – Caught by the River (book of the month) A passionate and poetic exercise in empathy for everything. – Between Two Books a beautiful exploration of our relationship with nature. – Idler intriguing and generous. – New Statesman The essays appear not as fragments but as portals, dropping deep into the currents of contemporary ecological thought and lived experience… – Amy Clarkson, SPAM
