【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】The First 30 Years of Making It Possible The Story of the Charles and Lynn Schusterman Family Foundation【電子書籍】[ Sandy Cardin ]

＜p＞The history of the Charles and Lynn Schusterman Family Foundation is a tale similar to many you have heard before: a young man born to modest, immigrant Jewish parents achieves great success in business and decides to devote substantial time and resources to philanthropy. He joins with his wife to form a family foundation that they hope will perpetually pursue its mission of making the world a better place. Over the years, what begins as a relatively modest philanthropic vehicle grows in size and influence to become a significant funder of those causes the family deems most worthy of their support. And, along the way, the Foundation continues to evolve and adapt as its leadership passes from one generation to the next, and it seeks to address the most pressing needs of its time.＜/p＞ ＜p＞To leave the story there, however, would be a disservice to both the Schusterman family and everyone who has worked closely with them over the years to maximize the impact of their philanthropy. For while the path the Schustermans traveled may be a familiar one, the journey they took has been all their own.＜/p＞ ＜p＞The roots of their Foundation date to 1983, the year Charles received the unexpected news that he had a fatal disease and had only a few years to live. He was a young man, and the diagnosis meant he needed to put his life in order even as he and Lynn immediately began exploring both known and experimental protocols that could give him more time. Through a combination of his own research and great medical care, Charles beat the odds and prolonged his life.＜/p＞ ＜p＞In 1987, Charles and Lynn ー strikingly different in the way they assessed possibilities, evaluated opportunities, and made decisions ー formed their Foundation and began working to achieve their shared philanthropic objectives: strengthening the American Jewish community, supporting Israel, and enriching the quality of life in Tulsa, Oklahoma. At the heart of every choice they made was a deep and enduring commitment to the Jewish people and the Jewish imperative of tikkun olam (repairing a broken world). So much so, in fact, that they pledged to themselves to direct at least 75 percent of their funding to Jewish causes, including Israel.＜/p＞ ＜p＞The uncertainty of their remaining time together, their inexperience, and their humility led them to look first at what they could achieve by working with existing organizations rather than developing programs of their own. They quickly realized just how much they had to learn about strategic giving, and they responded by using the experience and lessons learned in building their energy business to shape their Foundation. They asked many questions, sought input from a wide range of sources, built a strong professional team, utilized the latest in technology, took risks, acted decisively, and adapted as new data emerged. They also invested in outstanding leaders with a demonstrated commitment to the relentless pursuit of excellence.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】UNDERSTANDING PRE-MARITAL COUNSELLING Unlocking Secrets To A Strong Foundation【電子書籍】[ Canisio Manyuchi ]

＜p＞Marriage is a deep and reflective journey. Presumably easy to embark on but highly demanding to sustain. This is a lifelong commitment to share one’s life with someone you love and care for. It is an adventure of love and joy in companionship. As is the case with all adventures, there are unforeseen and unexpected eventualities. Complications and challenges arise from these eventualities. Therefore, every serious couple needs to invest in that which can help to establish a firm foundation. Prof. Guti defines marriage as an unconditional lifelong commitment to an imperfect partner[1].He argues that there are readymade perfect partners, but there is always room for improvement in the quality of a relationship.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Understanding Pre-Marital Counselling is an eye-opener in this endeavour. In this book, we will engage in the various aspects of preparation for marriage. This is not a magic book that predicts and solves all your future problems. The most important thing is that the demanded resources should be in place to avoid catastrophe. The book will therefore arm you with tools, communication skills, and insights for navigation in the sea of matrimony. Your understanding of each other’s expectations, ambitions and value systems will be deepened through the application of knowledge captured in this book. Marriage should be built on love, trust, and respect for one another. Marriage may present challenges, but this resource can help foster an open and honest conversation that will strengthen the couple’s bond and empower them for such experiences. All the essential topics like family dynamics, finances, communication, and conflict resolution among others will be discussed. As such, whether you are about to wed, engaged or married but seeking for ways to enhance your marriage life you are holding the right book. If you humbly do the exercises and practice the principles given the result will be a healthy and fulfilling relationship.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Pre-marital counselling is a worthwhile investment in your shared future. The strategies you gain will help build a strong marriage foundation and equip you with skills that will nurture your relationship for life. I pray for you and wish you a life filled with love, resilience, and lasting happiness in Jesus Christ our Lord.＜/p＞ ＜p＞One of the strongest driving factors leading to the writing of this book is what I personally failed to get at the time of my entrance into marriage. Nobody around me ever talked about it! I never came across a book dedicated entirely to this subject. By His grace we are now on 15 years of marriage but just as good as your guess, the first years have no good memories. While seeking solutions to my own challenges, and answers to specific questions one after the other, God laid a burden and a passion to share this information.＜/p＞ ＜p＞[1] Dr E H Guti (2006) Shut your mouth A NEW LOOK AT YOUR MARRIAGE, EGEA Publications, Waterfalls, Harare.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】An Analysis of Hamid Dabashi's Theology of Discontent The Ideological Foundation of the Islamic Revolution in Iran【電子書籍】[ Magdalena C. Delgado ]

＜p＞Hamid Dabashi’s 1997 work ＜em＞Theology of Discontent＜/em＞ reveals a creative thinker capable not only of understanding how an argument is built, but also of redefining old issues in new ways. The Iranian Revolution of 1978?9 was front-page news in the West, and in some ways remains so today. Though it was an uprising against authoritarian royal rule, with a coalition of modernisers and Islamists, the revolution saw the birth of a new Islamic Republic that seemed to reject pro-Western democracy. Dabashi wanted to analyze the real reasons for this change, while examining how Islamic ideologies contributed to the revolution and the republic that followed.＜/p＞ ＜p＞＜em＞Theology of Discontent＜/em＞ examines different Islamic thinkers, analyzing how views with seemingly little in common contributed to the modern Iranian belief system. Beyond its insightful analytical dissection of these eight thinkers, ＜em＞Theology of Discontent＜/em＞ also shows Dabashi’s creative thinking skills. Reframing the debates about Iran’s relationship with the West, he traced the ways in which Iranian identity formed in reactive opposition to Western ideas. In many ways, Dabashi suggested, Iran was trapped in a cycle of deliberately asserting its difference from the West, a process that was fundamental to the development of its own unique brand of revolutionary Islamism.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】Children's Literature, Domestication, and Social Foundation Narratives of Civilization and Wilderness【電子書籍】[ Layla AbdelRahim ]

＜p＞This study of children's literature as knowledge, culture, and social foundation bridges the gap between science and literature and examines the interconnectedness of fiction and reality as a two-way road. The book investigates how the civilized narrative orders experience by means of segregation, domestication, breeding, and extermination, arguing instead that the stories and narratives of wilderness project chaos and infinite possibilities for experiencing the world through a diverse community of life. AbdelRahim engages these narratives in a dialogue with each other and traces their expression in the various disciplines and books written for both children and adults, analyzing the manifestation of fictional narratives in real life. This is both an inter- and multi-disciplinary endeavor that is reflected in the combination of research methods drawn from anthropology and literary studies as well as in the tracing of the narratives of order and chaos, or civilization and wilderness, in children's literature and our world. Chapters compare and contrast fictional children's books that offer different real-world socio-economic paradigms, such as A.A. Milne's ＜em＞Winnie-the-Pooh＜/em＞ projecting a civilized monarcho-capitalist world, Nikolai Nosov's trilogy on ＜em＞The Adventures of Dunno and Friends＜/em＞ presenting the challenges and feats of an anarcho-socialist society in evolution from primitivism towards technology, and Tove Jansson's ＜em＞Moominbooks＜/em＞ depicting the harmony of anarchy, chaos, and wildness. AbdelRahim examines the construction, transmission, and acquisition of knowledge in children’s literature by visiting the very nature of literature, culture, and language and the civilized structures that domesticate the world. She brings radically new perspectives to the knowledge, culture, and construction of human beings, making an invaluable contribution to a wide range of disciplines and for those engaged in revolutionizing contemporary debates on the nature of knowledge, human identity, and the world.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】Ancient Syracuse From Foundation to Fourth Century Collapse【電子書籍】[ Richard Evans ]

＜p＞Syracuse possesses a unique place in the history of the ancient Mediterranean because of its contribution to Greek culture and political thought and practice. Even in the first century BC Cicero could still declare ’You have often heard that of all the Greek cities Syracuse is the greatest and most beautiful.’ Sicily’s strategic location in the Mediterranean brought the city prosperity and power, placing it in the first rank of states in the ancient world. The history and governance of the city were recorded from the fifth century BC and the volume of literary sources comes close to matching the records of Athens or Rome. Combining literary and material evidence this monograph traces the history of Syracuse, offering new arguments about the date of the city’s foundation, and continues through the fifth century when, as a democracy, Syracuse’s military strength grew to equal that of Athens or Sparta, surpassing them in the early fourth century under the tyrant Dionysius I. From ca. 350 BC, however, the city’s fortunes declined as the state was wracked with civil strife as the tyranny lost control. The result was a collapse so serious that the city faced complete and imminent destruction.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

＜p＞＜strong＞The first biography in more than a generation of the father of modern political Zionism and in effect the state of Israel.＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞Drawing extensively on his diaries as well as his published works, this intellectual biographical follows Herzl's transformation from a private person into the founder and leader of a political movement which made the quest for a Jewish state into a player in international politics. Contrary to the conventional view which saw the Dreyfus affair as the trigger for Herzl's loss of belief in the promise of Jewish emancipation, Avineri shows how it was the political crisis of the Austro-Hungarian Habsburg Empire, torn apart by contending national movements, which convinced Herzl of the need for a Jewish polity.＜/p＞ ＜p＞In response to the wide resonance for his 1896 THE JEWISH STATE, Herzl convened the first Zionist Congress in Basel in 1897, which established the World Zionist Organization with its representative and elected institutions; this in turn became the foundation for Israel's democratic political system. In his efforts to gain international support for a Jewish state, Herzl met with the Ottoman Sultan, the German Emperor Wilhelm II, Pope Pius X, British, Russian and German ministers, as well as an enormous number of other government and public opinion leaders of most European countries. By the time of his early death in 1904 at the age of 44, Herzl succeeded in putting Zionism on the map of world politics, no longer an esoteric idea held by a small group of Jewish intellectuals in Eastern Europe.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Written at the height of Stalin's first "five-year plan" for the industrialization of Soviet Russia and the parallel campaign to collectivize Soviet agriculture, Andrei Platonov's The Foundation Pit registers a dissonant mixture of utopian longings and despair. Furthermore, it provides essential background to Platonov's parody of the mainstream Soviet "production" novel, which is widely recognized as one of the masterpieces of twentieth-century Russian prose. In addition to an overview of the work's key themes, it discusses their place within Platonov's oeuvre as a whole, his troubled relations with literary officialdom, the work's ideological and political background, and key critical responses since the work's first publication in the West in 1973.画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

古本, 英語で予約する, 洋書【古本】 Anthology of Great U.S. Women Poets 1850-1990: Temples and Palaces - Glenn Richard Ruihley (The Mosaic Foundation) 【紙書籍】 0965573508

タイトル: Anthology of Great U.S. Women Poets 1850-1990: Temples and Palaces著者: Glenn Richard Ruihley出版社: The Mosaic Foundation出版日: 2007年01月01日古本ほぼ新品。傷みが少なく、しっかりと製本された、優れた、マークのないコピーです。リサイクル可能なアメリカ製の封筒で発送します。すべての注文に 100% 返金保証付き。In the U.S. literary world, critics and scholars of poetry forever move in circles around a few sacred beings: Shakespeare, Keats, Poe, Blake, Byron, Whitman, Shelley, and T. S. Eliot. Even among our women poets there are three Empresses---Dickinson, Moore, and Plath---who beguile countless eager academic courtiers to their thrones. Sadly, it was Plath's early death by suicide that won her great devotion. But it is no more odd than the fact that their prestige has kept the great achievements of our mainstream lyrical women poets unrecognized, stifled, and hidden from readers' eyes. Even the few women lyricists w ho remain in print---such as Millay, H.D., and Bogan---appear in demeaning printed versions with everything they wrote being stuffed between two covers with no regard for assessing the poems' quality and no help from sympathetic editors. Conversely, in selections of their poetry, only the most academic verses are chosen to represent their poetry.Covering the period from Emily Dickinson to the present day, this anthology collects all our classic women poets in one volume for the first time. It proposes that their best poems have a value different from but equal to the writings of the most admired poets. With a few exceptions, the eighteen poets included are represented by coherent sequences of poems that develop lines of thought and display the poets' stylistic brilliance. Part Four consists of critical-biographical essays on these women. These incorporate extensive biobliographies, which enhance the book's value as a reference tool.Though many of these poets' volumes are out of print, and most of them are unknown even to the most literate readers, these women belong at the center of American literature, masters of their art who contributed unique insights into the human experience.ContentsPart One: PenumbraEdith Thomas (1854-1925)Lizette Reese (1856-1935)Anna H.

D. from the University of Wisconsin, Glenn Richard Ruihley began teaching in the English Department at Eastern Michigan University. His principal interest has been the period of poetic revival and experiment that began in 1912, in particular the women poets of that period who explore the inner life and spirituality. He is also the author of "August Ruihley: A Private History."

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】The War with Hannibal The History of Rome from its Foundation Books 21-30【電子書籍】[ Livy ]

＜p＞In The War with Hannibal, Livy (59 BC-AD 17) chronicles the events of the Second Punic War between Rome and Carthage, until the Battle of Zama in 202 BC. He vividly recreates the immense armies of Hannibal, complete with elephants, crossing the Alps; the panic as they approached the gates of Rome; and the decimation of the Roman army at the Battle of Lake Trasimene. Yet it is also the clash of personalities that fascinates Livy, from great debates in the Senate to the historic meeting between Scipio and Hannibal before the decisive battle. Livy never hesitates to introduce both intense drama and moral lessons into his work, and here he brings a turbulent episode in history powerfully to life.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。
