Book Description
Roots, Fruits, Veggies and Soups compiles recipes from “A” to “Z”. The collection includes delectable dishes which reflect the pride and heritage of Jamaican and other Caribbean cuisines. The “roots” (cassava, yam, dasheen, potato, ginger and coco) are a treat. Prepared in a variety of ways, these staples may be used at any meal. Whether a traditional or a newly developed recipe, each dish is bound to delight the taste buds. Many of the newly developed recipes may change the way you think about our “roots,” which may be a rhizome, a tuber, a stem or a bulb. From side dishes to drinks, the versatility of our “roots” will astound you. The recipes may be used for formal occasions or casual dining, for side dishes or drinks, by the professional, the everyday cook or the adventurous at heart. The nostalgia is overpowering, the foods bridging the gap that separates us from our island homes. Jamaica is coveted for its wide variety of tropical fruits. To name a few, the ackee, breadfruit, guava, mango, guinnep, custard apple, star apple, banana, plum, avocado, and papaya are among the fruits from which to choose. Their rich colors, textures, aromas, and tastes tantalize the senses of the epicurean. Eaten fresh or cooked, as a single food, a combination food or a blend, fruits are a rich addition to any meal. Try the ackee and saltfish (salted cod), the Jamaican national dish. Prove for yourself the delectable experience of a fruit and fish combination!

Grief and Its Transcendence
Author: Adele Tutter
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1317606353
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 282
Book Description
Grief and its Transcendence: Memory, Identity, Creativity is a landmark contribution that provides fresh insights into the experience and process of mourning. It includes fourteen original essays by pre-eminent psychoanalysts, historians, classicists, theologians, architects, art-historians and artists, that take on the subject of normal, rather than pathological mourning. In particular, it considers the diversity of the mourning process; the bereavement of ordinary vs. extraordinary loss; the contribution of mourning to personal and creative growth; and individual, social, and cultural means of transcending grief. The book is divided into three parts, each including two to four essays followed by one or two critical discussions. Co-editor Adele Tutter’s Prologue outlines the salient themes and tensions that emerge from the volume. Part I juxtaposes the consideration of grief in antiquity with an examination of the contemporary use of memorials to facilitate communal remembrance. Part II offers intimate first-person accounts of mourning from four renowned psychoanalysts that challenge long-held psychoanalytic formulations of mourning. Part III contains deeply personal essays that explore the use of sculpture, photography, and music to withstand, mourn, and transcend loss on individual, cultural and political levels. Drawing on the humanistic wisdom that underlies psychoanalytic thought, co-editor Léon Wurmser’s Epilogue closes the volume. Grief and its Transcendence will be a must for psychoanalysts, psychotherapists, psychiatrists, and scholars within other disciplines who are interested in the topics of grief, bereavement and creativity.
