Survivor Lessons
Author: Matthew J. Smith
Publisher: McFarland
ISBN: 0786481838
Category : Performing Arts
Languages : en
Pages : 241
Book Description
This collection of scholarly essays examines reality television. The first show, Survivor, inspired a national craze when it aired in the summer of 2000. Ever since, successors and copycats have been on each of the four largest networks. The basics stay the same: put a group of people into situations bound to cause conflict, and watch them squirm. Rather than criticize the series' voyeuristic appeal, this work evaluates what goes on within the text of such shows and how they reflect or affect our larger culture. Contributors include researchers from communications, sociology, political science, and psychology. The contributions cover such topics as reality television's relationships with cultural identity, publicity rights, historical perspectives, trust, decision-making strategies, political rationality, office politics, and primitivism. Each chapter includes a bibliography. Instructors considering this book for use in a course may request an examination copy here.

Quinton is very excited. The young boy is making his way toward the Keep, a special fortress at the center of the realm. There, his father—a knight—waits to guide him through the fortress’s locked doors to behold a powerful treasure that is being guarded inside—the Golden Scroll. However, before Quinton can fully discover the power of this scroll, he is suddenly caught in the middle of an enemy attack. The forces of the Dark Master have come to destroy the Golden Scroll, which is the one thing that can stop them from conquering the land. Through a narrow escape, Quinton and his father flee the Keep with the special scroll in hand.

Unless Quinton can discover the Golden Scroll’s power, and return it to the Keep, the land will soon fall under the shadow of tyranny. In this young person’s tale, the son of a knight begins a quest in which he discovers the key to overcoming the dark forces that threaten his land.

Hungry for Louisiana
Author: Maggie Heyn Richardson
Publisher: LSU Press
ISBN: 0807158364
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 157
Book Description
Food sets the tempo of life in the Bayou State, where people believed in eating locally and seasonally long before it was fashionable. In Hungry for Louisiana: An Omnivore's Journey award-winning journalist Maggie Heyn Richardson takes readers to local farms, meat markets, restaurants, festivals, culinary competitions, and roadside vendors to reveal the love, pride, and cultural importance of Louisiana's traditional and evolving cuisine. Focusing on eight of the state's most emblematic foods-crawfish, jambalaya, snoballs, Creole cream cheese, filé, blood boudin, tamales, and oysters-Richardson provides a fresh look at Louisiana's long culinary history. In addition to concluding each chapter with corresponding recipes, these vignettes not only celebrate local foodways but also acknowledge the complicated dynamic between maintaining local traditions and managing agricultural and social change. From exploring the perilous future of oyster farming along the threatened Gulf Coast to highlighting the rich history of the Spanish-Indian tamale in the quirky north Louisiana town of Zwolle, Richardson's charming and thoughtful narrative shows how deeply food informs the identity of Louisiana's residents.
