hardcover. Zustand: As New. Prima edizione (First Edition). Testi di Paul Roth, Amanda Maddox, Sergio Burgi, Beatriz Jaguaribe,Flavio Pinhero, Timothy Potts et al. 200 fotografie in bianco e nero di Gordon Parks . Cm 29x25. pp. 304. . Perfetto (Mint). . Prima edizione (First Edition). . Questo libro esplora una storia illustrata di Gordon Parks e la straordinaria catena di eventi che provocò. Pubblicata sulla rivista Life nel giugno 1961 con il titolo "Poverty: Freedom's Fearful Foe", questo empatico saggio fotografico tracciava il profilo della famiglia da Silva, che viveva in una favela in collina vicino a una ricca enclave di Rio de Janeiro. Concentrandosi principalmente sul figlio maggiore Flavio, un laborioso dodicenne che soffriva di asma paralizzante, la storia di Parks procurò più di 3.000 lettere e 25.000 dollari di donazioni da parte dei lettori di Life per aiutare la famiglia e la favela. In Brasile la storia scatenò una polemica; un giornale, O Cruzeiro, si vendicò di Life, inviando il fotografo Henri Ballot a documentare la povertà a New York. Imperterrita, Life intraprese un'opera di "salvataggio" che prevedeva il trasferimento di Flavio in un ospedale di Denver, il trasferimento della famiglia in una nuova casa e la gestione di fondi a sostegno della favela. La storia, così come il rapporto di Parks con Flavio, continuò a svilupparsi per molti anni. I dettagli di questa storia straordinaria forniscono un esempio affascinante dell'eccezionalismo degli Stati Uniti all'inizio degli anni Sessanta e uno sguardo rivelatore sul potere e la forza culturale del "Great American Magazine".

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - In The Letters of Mary Penry, Scott Paul Gordon provides unprecedented access to the intimate world of a Moravian single sister. This vast collection of letters-compiled, transcribed, and annotated by Gordon-introduces readers to an unmarried woman who worked, worshiped, and wrote about her experience living in Moravian religious communities at the time of the American Revolution and early republic. Penry, a Welsh immigrant and a convert to the Moravian faith, was well connected in both the international Moravian community and the state of Pennsylvania. She counted among her acquaintances Elizabeth Sandwith Drinker and Hannah Callender Sansom, two American women whose writings have also been preserved, in addition to members of some of the most prominent families in Philadelphia, such as the Shippens, the Franklins, and the Rushes. This collection brings together more than seventy of Penry's letters, few of which have been previously published. Gordon's introduction provides a useful context for understanding the letters and the unique woman who wrote them. This collection of Penry's letters broadens perspectives on early America and the eighteenth-century Moravian Church by providing a sustained look at the spiritual and social life of a single woman at a time when singleness was extraordinarily rare. It also makes an important contribution to the recovery of women's voices in early America, amplifying views on politics, religion, and social networks from a time when few women's perspectives on these subjects have been preserved.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Challenging recent work that contends that seventeenth-century English discourses privilege the notion of a self-enclosed, self-sufficient individual, The Power of the Passive Self in English Literature recovers a counter-tradition that imagines selves as more passively prompted than actively choosing. This tradition - which Scott Paul Gordon locates in seventeenth-century religious discourse, in early eighteenth-century moral philosophy, in mid eighteenth-century acting theory, and in the emergent novel - resists autonomy and defers agency from the individual to an external 'prompter'. Gordon argues that the trope of passivity aims to guarantee a disinterested self in a culture that was increasingly convinced that every deliberate action involves calculating one's own interest. Gordon traces the origins of such ideas from their roots in the non-conformist religious tradition to their flowering in one of the central texts of eighteenth-century literature, Samuel Richardson's Clarissa.
