Book Description
Sara, the cautious, quietly observant twin, narrates this reminiscence of sisters whose dreams were intermittently encouraged or dashed by their ambitious, stout-hearted Norwegian-American mother and their alternatively abusive and loving Danish-American father, who felt enslaved by his land and cattle. The twins' emotionally fragile older sister, mischevious younger brother, and sturdy baby sister each found ways to cope. This is a personal portrayal of parents, siblings, family and neighbours who painted the rural landscape in sombre tones of duty and self-sacrifice, yet touched it with hope and grace.

Languages : en
Pages : 144
Book Description
Work Half As Hard, Get Twice As Much Done, & Make Three Times The Money Farmer Brown has a bunch of Sacred Cows... The interesting thing about Sacred Cows is that each one thinks it is the most important so Farmer Brown has to keep them in different fields side by side with a double fence between each one because if they get to close to each other they try to bit and kick each other. Sacred Cows are those beliefs that we have come to accept as reality because parents, educators, religion and society have told us this is true. We have made our Sacred Cows untouchable and yet with all the new information and discoveries that are being presented in society today our Sacred Cows are coming under so much pressure. Volume 1 presents a way to remove the fences between our Sacred Cows and Money and allow them to begin to mingle and dance together. We have Sacred Cows about ourselves, about health, about relationships, about the world and the very big Sacred Cow around finances. Volume 1 is about getting our Sacred Cows and money to dance in a way so that everyone gets happy.

Between Dancing and Writing
Author: Kimerer L. LaMothe
Publisher: Fordham Univ Press
ISBN: 9780823224036
Category : Performing Arts
Languages : en
Pages : 332
Book Description
This book provides philosophical grounds for an emerging area of scholarship: the study of religion and dance. In the first part, LaMothe investigates why scholars in religious studies have tended to overlook dance, or rhythmic bodily movement, in favor of textual expressions of religious life. In close readings of Descartes, Kant, Schleiermacher, Hegel, and Kierkegaard, LaMothe traces this attitude to formative moments of the field in which philosophers relied upon the practice of writing to mediate between the study of religion, on the one hand, and theology, on the other.In the second part, LaMothe revives the work of theologian, phenomenologist, and historian of religion Gerardus van der Leeuw for help in interpreting how dancing can serve as a medium of religious experience and expression. In so doing, LaMothe opens new perspectives on the role of bodily being in religious life, and on the place of theology in the study of religio
