Penned by advanced graduate students amidst their dissertation fieldwork, these provocative essays capture the challenges and intricacies of that anthropological rite of passage. The collection’s authors frankly portray the mistakes they made in the field, their struggle to analyze the events unfolding before their eyes, the psychological and emotional frustration seemingly endemic to "doing" ethnography, and the ethical complexities of researching living people. The authors present these essays not as models of ideal fieldwork or as a series of lessons about how to overcome potential hurdles one faces in the field, but rather as a window into the complexities of "being" an ethnographer in the contemporary world. Against a backdrop of subject populations increasingly informed about global relations of power and, more specifically, informed about the topography of American imperialism, these humanistic essays vividly reflect recent shifts in both the focus and methods of anthropological research, as well as the dilemmas underlying the construction of anthropological knowledge. They are meant to spark discussion and debate. While tailored to an audience relatively new to ethnographic fieldwork (and intended as a teaching tool), this collection should appeal to anthropologists and ethnographers at all points in their career.

A friendly, hands-on instruction in the "Schraner Way" of wheelbuilding. Compiled from notes of over 45 years of building wheels for professionals and amateur racers by master craftsman Gerd Schraner.

From dust jacket notes: "'Being of sound mind and in reasonable possession of my faculties, I marshaled my forces, at the tender age of fifty-four, and marched upon the city of Boston, Massachusetts, like a latter-day Ben Franklin, to seek my fame and fortune as the operator of a racetrack. Two years later, fortune having taken one look at my weathered features and shaken its hoary locks, I retreated, smiling gamely.' -Bill Veeck- The title of this book has to do with what its author calls 'the end product of the romance of horseracing.' When Bill Veeck, the famous maverick from baseball, took up the challenge of managing Boston's semi-moribund Suffolk Downs racetrack in early 1969, he had yet to learn that the normal daily output of some sixteen hundred horses (including straw) would amount to so much, or be so hard to dispose of....In the tough-minded and tabasco-tongued prose that is his trademark, Bill Veeck lines out the battles he won and lost, the fun he had, what he discovered about horseracing at 'Sufferin' Downs,' and the friends and enemies he so open-handedly made. With wry elan he provides a wealth of track lore - about Joe Fan, the first all-girl-jockey pari-mutuel race, the re-enactment of the chariot race in Ben Hur, and more - opening the reader's eyes to the fact that flat racing has more ups and down than a cordillera...."

2008 triple vinyl LP pressing. This dark, suffocating stuff is full of nightmares and claustrophobic details that send shivers up one's spine. References include Coil, Marc Acardipane, Scott Brown, and Neophyte. Not afraid to show her classical upbringing (she trained as an Opera singer) and Jazz heritage (granddaughter of J.B. Floyd), Libby Floyd infuses the Rave sound with doom and dread. Inducing panic on the dance floor, cuts like the eleven-minute 'Slaves' builds into writhing acid anthems

Si l'histoire de la philosophie a donné lieu à quelques monuments éditoriaux, très rares ont été les entreprises synthétiques, accessibles aux néophytes comme aux initiés, et retraçant en un unique volume plus de deux millénaires de débats intellectuels. C'est le défi de la présente Histoire de la philosophie, qui offre une présentation didactique de l'ensemble de la tradition occidentale, des origines à nos jours. Le lecteur y est guidé parmi la pensée et les œuvres des principaux philosophes, depuis les premiers penseurs de l'Antiquité grecque jusqu'aux auteurs qui réfléchissent aujourd'hui à notre connaissance de la nature, des nouvelles technologies ou au gouvernement de la cité. Il pénètre au cœur des grandes controverses à travers lesquelles la philosophie ne cesse de poursuivre son questionnement.

Québec, 2010. 1 Volume/1. -- Comme Neuf -- Broché collé . Format in-8°( 22,8 x 15,3 cm ) ( 838 gr ). ------------ 562 pages. ******************* 4ème de Couverture : En 1651, la monarchie française concède la seigneurie de Sillery aux « sauvages » néophytes chrétiens des environs de Québec, montagnais et algonquins. C'est la première fois que le roi de France donne une seigneurie directement à un groupe d'autochtones. Et ce sera la dernière. En fait, toute l'histoire de cette concession est exceptionnelle et passionnante. D'abord, les Jésuites, tuteurs exclusifs et perpétuels des indigènes, font mainbasse sur la seigneurie, n'hésitant pas à conclure des tractations préjudiciables aux intérêts de leurs pupilles. Ces pupilles, ce sont très vite des Hurons, réfugiés à Québec à l'époque de la concession, qui remplacent les occupants originaux. La tutelle jésuite sévit tout le long du Régime français. Après la Conquête, les Jésuites se voient en pratique interdits par les autorités britanniques. Leurs biens doivent être liquidés. Les Hurons estiment que la seigneurie de Sillery leur revient. Obéissant à une logique impériale d'assujettissement plutôt que d'alliance, les Britanniques refusent de la leur rendre. Tous les prétendants aux biens des Jésuites finiront par obtenir dédommagement, sauf les Hurons. Frustrés par leurs tuteurs, subjugués par les Britanniques, les propriétaires originaux de la seigneurie ne s'avouent pas pour autant vaincus et poursuivent la lutte jusque sous le gouvernement fédéral du Dominion du Canada, successeur de la politique britannique. C'est ce combat inégal que Michel Lavoie raconte dans ce livre. Combat dont l'issue est toujours incertaine aujourd'hui, et qui pourrait avoir une incidence énorme sur l'ensemble des revendications territoriales amérindiennes. . ******************************
