Book Description
Émile Nelligan (1879–1941) wrote all of his poetry as an adolescent, before spending four decades in a psychiatric asylum. Considering all of Nelligan's work and using a largely textual approach, Émile Talbot points out the Canadian roots of Nelligan's originality. He argues that these are discernable despite Nelligan's use of the discourse of nineteenth-century continental French poetry, particularly that of the Parnassians and the Decadents. Talbot's textual analysis is integrated with a consideration of the social, cultural, artistic, and religious climate of both late nineteenth-century Montreal and the European literary culture to which Nelligan was responding. Talbot considers such pertinent factors as the spirituality of guilt, the role of the mother, and a societal context that rejected both the revelation of the self and the autonomy of art. In doing so he sheds new light on Nelligan's use of European poetic language to fashion a poetry marked by his own culture.

Book Description
Every Dad in America wants to raise a resilient kid. "Four Lessons From My Three Sons" explains how it's done. Written by a good-natured but unyielding father, this slim volume describes how his off-beat and yet powerful forms of encouragement helped his sons obtain the confidence, character and resilience needed to achieve personal success and satisfaction. This book isn't 300 pages of popular child psychology or a fatherhood "journey" filled with meaningless jargon and whining equivocation. It's tough and hard and fast.Nelligan used the everyday word of Dads and sons to punctuate virtuous - and appalling - behavior with comic and sometimes grimly ironic exhortations. "Dad's sayings" - as his sons called them - became a pounding soundtrack in the boys' lives, shaping their fundamental perspectives and behaviors. The result? Their bios are inside. In 60 minutes, this book will give Dads a new look at family relationships, parenting boys, and most of all, a new way of interacting with their sons. Contained here are the fundamental steps you can take to raise a confident, alert, and ambitious son. That's because success in anything follows the resilient kid.

Book Description
When my son Sean was born with special needs, his mother and I were told he would never be “normal” and we mourned for the life we had imagined for him. We thought we would have to be his teacher and protector, more so than the typical child. However, we quickly learned that lessons can come from the most unlikely places and that our world would be changed for the better in ways we could have never envisioned. . . all because of Sean. Before he died on Father’s Day 2019, Sean taught me valuable life lessons that only became more pronounced upon his passing. He taught me how to build strong, authentic relationships. He taught me how to live in the moment. He taught me how to feel gratitude. Mostly, he taught me how to live like Sean, and these lessons are his legacy.

The Creativity Hoax
Author: George Morgan
Publisher: Anthem Press
ISBN: 1783087188
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 176
Book Description
Politicians, educators and business leaders often tell young people they will need to develop their creative skills to be ready for the new economy. Vast numbers of school leavers enrol in courses in media, communications, creative and performing arts, yet few will ever achieve the creative careers they aspire to. The big cities are filled with performers, designers, producers and writers who cannot make a living from their art/craft. They are told their creative skills are transferable but there is little available work outside retail, service and hospitality jobs. Actors can use their skills selling phone plans, insurance or advertising space from call centres, but usually do so reluctantly. Most people in the ‘creative industries’ work as low-paid employees or freelancers, or as unpaid interns. They put up with exploitation so that they can do what they love. The Creativity Hoax argues that in this individualistic and competitive environment, creative aspirants from poor and minority backgrounds are most vulnerable and precarious. Although governments in the West stress the importance of culture and knowledge in economic renewal, few invest in the support and infrastructure that would allow creative aspirants to make best use of their skills.

By Their Fruits You Will Know Them
Author: Selwyn Katene
Publisher:
ISBN: 9780947493127
Category : Maori (New Zealand people)
Languages : en
Pages : 295
Book Description
This book follows Turning the Hearts of the Children, exploring why so many Maori in the 1880s were inspired to question the mainstream churches and flock to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, the Mormon church. Once again each chapter is written by direct descendants of a further twelve influential men and women, mostly born in the 19th century, who joined the Mormon Church in Aotearoa New Zealand and became leaders. By Their Fruits You Will Know Them describes the role of rangatira Maori in the conversion of their people to this new faith whose missionaries moved humbly through communities, conversing in te reo Maori with little concern for land or colonisation but with an intense interest in whakapapa, a concept of fundamental importance to all Maori. Rather than judging Maori as faithless heathens, which happened in some quarters, this new church welcomed them as whanaunga (relatives) with whakapapa to one of the twelve tribes of Israel.

Book Description
Working off the hit of Pat the Bunny – and with Pat the Husband already a top-rated spin-off, Nelligan is back at it with Pat the Daddy. It’s a spot-on parody of coping with being a new parent, relayed in a simplistic, tongue-in-cheek manner that’s sure to ring true with any prospective or even seasoned parents. Following on the crib – I mean coat – tails of Pat the Husband comes Nelligan’s parody of what being a father is all about. Portrayed in tongue-in-cheek sarcasm with equally clever illustrations, the book will ring true for all dads.

Tales From The Swamp
Author: Jeff Nelligan
Publisher: Independently Published
ISBN:
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 95
Book Description
Revealed within this slender volume are Five Habits of the successful politicians who thrive in the Swamp. Yes, that Swamp - - Washington, D.C. - the breeding ground of all the cunning and shadows and maneuvering that defines American politics. A murky pool to navigate but brilliantly lit by those who seize and enhance true, sometimes massive political power. The Five - organization, self-control, resilience, insight, and initiative - are highlighted within entertaining and true tales about politicians at the top of their game. Because that's the thing: If you're not at the top of your game, you're not long for the Swamp. Nelligan recounts these basic habits and the enduring life lessons from his humble if unique vantage point: As a low-profile staffer, a discreet special assistant and a quiet campaign operative - the truly indispensable man carrying the papers and folders and charts and devices and yes, sometimes purses. Never even close to a decision maker, he was simply the guy always on the scene making sure the political train ran smoothly and on time: The Fixer. It was in this role in which Nelligan worked for three Members of the U.S. Congress and at the GAO; was twice a Presidential Appointee serving senior Cabinet officials; and, operated as an advance man on municipal, Congressional, and Presidential campaigns. Tales From The Swamp is straightforward, funny, and fast - the shortest self-help book and perhaps one of the livelier political stories you'll ever read. Nelligan's takeaway from a long career in one of the most competitive places on earth is that professional success can be enhanced by developing these five habits. They worked for those in the Swamp. They will work for you.
