Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'The Purloined Islands' offers the first book-length exploration of literary and cultural exchanges between the United States and the Caribbean during the roughly eighty-year period of their greatest interaction, from the close of the Spanish-American War to the Cuban Revolution. The interconnected histories of colonization, migration, slavery, and political struggle thrust writers from both regions into a vibrant literary conversation across national borders. Jeff Karem charts this dialogue and its patterns of influence through an analysis of key literary and cultural sources in English, French, and Spanish, including a large body of rare archival evidence.What the author identifies in this wide-ranging exchange is the Caribbean's vital contribution not only to the literatures of the American hemisphere but also to the literary and intellectual culture of the United States itself. Specifically, he shows how such movements as pan-Africanism, the New Negro Renaissance, and pan-American modernism have significant Caribbean roots, although the United States has often failed to recognize them, effectively 'purloining' those resources without acknowledgment. As his title's allusion to Poe's 'The Purloined Letter' suggests, Karem argues that the contributions of the Caribbean have been borrowed, appropriated, and nationalized by U.S. culture but are hidden in plain sight.Both its multilingual character and its emphasis on the reciprocity in cultural cross-currents will make the book of interest to readers not only in Caribbean and American cultural and literary studies but also in pan-American or border studies, Black Atlantic studies, and African American studies.…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - To what extent has the growing popular demand for a vicarious experience of other cultures fueled the expectation that the most important task for regional and ethnic writers is to capture and convey authentic cultural material to their readers In The Romance of Authenticity, Jeff Karem argues that, in contrast to prevailing assumptions that authenticity should be prized as a goal of regional and ethnic literatures, it is in fact a dangerously restrictive category of literary judgment. He draws on a large body of archival evidence to show how intense political and economic interests have determined what literary representations are deemed authentic, not only constraining what such writers can publish but also limiting the ways in which their works are interpreted. The author specifically discusses the work of William Faulkner, Richard Wright, Ernest Gaines, Rolando Hinojosa, and Leslie Marmon Silko. Exploring these writers' different responses to the expectation that they act as cultural representatives of the Southern, Southwestern, African American, Latino, or Native American experience, Karem finds that some refuse that role and others embrace it. The Romance of Authenticity concludes that despite the celebration of hybridity in contemporary theories of identity, the politics of cultural authenticity in publishing and criticism produce precisely the opposite effect, reducing regional and ethnic writers to exotic objects of desire.…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Teachers shape learning experiences, facing complex classroom challenges that require thoughtful solutions. One effective way educators address these challenges is by examining their own teaching practices and student outcomes. Through action research, educators become active investigators in their classrooms, identifying problems, implementing strategies, and evaluating the results to improve learning. This reflective and evidence-based approach allows teachers to refine their methods, respond to student needs more effectively, and contribute to professional knowledge in their schools. By exploring real-world case studies and practical applications, action research demonstrates how educators can take ownership of improvement efforts and create meaningful, sustainable changes in their teaching and their students' success. Innovative Teaching Through Action Research: International Case Studies and Practical Applications explores action research as a tool for professional growth, instructional improvement, and student success. It provides various approaches to conduct action research in educational settings, equipping educators with the skills to critically analyze their teaching practices, identify challenges, and implement data-driven solutions. This book covers topics such as data science, instructional design, and professional development, and is a useful resource for educators, academicians, researchers, and scientists.…
