O livro tentará ler, analisar e interpretar três textos de Virginia Woolf: A Room of One's Own, Three Guineas e Mrs Dalloway num contexto material em que o poder e a resistência se encontram numa relação dinâmica em que quase se reforçam mutuamente. Em particular, reflectirá sobre a construção das mulheres envolvidas no processo de reinvenção de si próprias nos romances de Virginia Woolf à luz do feminismo "material", devido à importância primordial que este teve na visão e criatividade de Woolf. Quero agradecer à minha família; à minha mãe Huriye Dimililer e ao meu pai Yahya Dimililer. Obrigado por estarem comigo e ajudarem a minha vida. Sem o apoio da minha família, seria impossível. A ajuda de Ahmet Güneyli também foi muito apreciada. Quero dedicar este livro ao meu filho, Efe Yahya K¿sac¿k.

Il libro cerca di leggere, analizzare e interpretare tre testi di Virginia Woolf: Una stanza tutta per sé, Tre ghinee e La signora Dalloway in un contesto materiale in cui potere e resistenza sono in una relazione dinamica in cui si rafforzano quasi reciprocamente. In particolare, si rifletterà sulla costruzione delle donne coinvolte nel processo di reinvenzione di se stesse nei romanzi di Virginia Woolf alla luce del femminismo "materiale" per l'importanza fondamentale che ha avuto sulla visione e sulla creatività della Woolf. Desidero ringraziare la mia famiglia: mia madre Huriye Dimililer e mio padre Yahya Dimililer. Grazie per essere stati con me e per aver contribuito alla mia vita. Senza il sostegno della mia famiglia, sarebbe impossibile. Anche l'assistenza di Ahmet Güneyli è stata molto apprezzata. Desidero dedicare questo libro a mio figlio: Efe Yahya K¿sac¿k.

In dem Buch wird versucht, drei Texte von Virginia Woolf zu lesen, zu analysieren und zu interpretieren: A Room of One's Own, Three Guineas und Mrs Dalloway in einem materiellen Kontext, in dem Macht und Widerstand in einer dynamischen Beziehung stehen, in der sie sich gegenseitig verstärken. Insbesondere soll die Konstruktion von Frauen, die sich in den Romanen von Virginia Woolf neu erfinden, im Lichte des "materiellen" Feminismus betrachtet werden, da dieser für Woolfs Vision und Kreativität von überragender Bedeutung war. Ich möchte meiner Familie danken: meiner Mutter Huriye Dimililer und meinem Vater Yahya Dimililer. Danke, dass ihr mir beigestanden habt und mir in meinem Leben geholfen habt. Ohne die Unterstützung meiner Familie wäre es unmöglich. Auch die Hilfe von Ahmet Güneyli habe ich sehr zu schätzen gewusst. Ich möchte dieses Buch meinem Sohn, Efe Yahya K¿sac¿k, widmen.

This is the incredible tale of the youngest and lowest-ranking American POW captured in North Vietnam. Doug Hegdahl convinced his captors he was stupid, then spent the next two years memorizing the names of 254 fellow prisoners and other details of POW life. Upon his release, that information helped improve POW life for those still in captivity.

In the simmering heat of August 1967, a kaleidoscopic minivan carrying a band of hippies - adorned with long hair, beards, beads, sandals, and granny dresses - pulls up at the gates of Ft. Gordon, Augusta, GA, then the heartland of the Military Police. Their mission is unconventional: to instruct the 25th Infantry Division, 60th Mine Scout Dog Platoon in harnessing the keen senses of dogs to detect landmines, trip wires, and hidden tunnels.The air crackles with animosity as two worlds collide: the free-spirited and the regimented. Yet amidst the discord, Charlie Fasanaro, a young man with wisdom flowing through his veins, recognizes the crucial necessity of forging a bridge across the chasm of enmity that separates them. Their common cause is as clear as it is noble: saving lives in a theatre of war. Unbeknownst to Charlie, he is on the precipice of a spiritual catharsis that will redefine his very essence.Volunteering to journey to the harsh landscapes of Vietnam alongside the 60th, Charlie is plunged into the visceral cruelties of war. Amidst the chaos, he witnesses acts of heroism and self-sacrifice that cast a new light on the soldiers he stands beside; a nobility and honor scarcely seen amidst the peace-loving circles of his civilian life. This revelation propels Charlie into a tumultuous voyage of self-discovery, as he grapples with his identity amidst a whirlwind of contrasting ideologies.Bridge of Stones navigates through the turbulent waters of a time where ideologies clashed and the essence of humanity was put to the test. As Charlie endeavors to find his footing on the battlefield of conflicting beliefs, readers are ushered through a rich narrative that explores the profound essence of camaraderie, the unyielding spirit of sacrifice, and the indelible marks etched upon souls in times of war and peace.

Tommie Pueschel dreamed of flying ever since he was a little kid. It's now 1968, and U.S. Army Warrant Officer Thomas R. Pueschel is 22 years old and his dream of flying is being realized. Only thing is, he is in Vietnam and the helicopter he is flying is loaded with guns and rockets and while he may be flying, there's people on the ground who are shooting back at him. His dream has now turned into a full-blown nightmare. The events around him are encapsulating him, forcing him to do things he would never do, never even think of doing, and he's got no choice. In a letter home to his parents, he voices his concern:"All my life, you and the church have taught me, 'Thou shalt not kill' and yet, I now find myself on a ship which is taking me to a place where I will be expected to do just that. It is a battle that has been raging in me for many months now, and I cannot find what seems to be an answer, and I guess I will not until that final test comes when I come face to face with my enemy and have to tighten my finger on the trigger and blast the breath of life in an instant from the body of a fellow man. I know it will be him or me, and I think that I may be able to do it, but the thought still frightens me terribly. Can I really take the life of a man, and afterwards, can I really justify that act by attributing it to my own instincts for self-preservation?"This is the story of Tom's 423 days in Vietnam from his first days in that God-forsaken country in October 1967 through his "freedom bird" home on the 5th of December 1968. Vietnam was ugly and brutal and 1968 was the bloodiest and most deadly year of the war. Troop levels were at their highest (536,100 American troops) and the fighting was at its worst. As one of the original "Blue Ghosts", Tom flew over 900 missions in his 423 days and experienced "enough blood and gore for all." Much of Tom's story is told in his own words, through the many letters he wrote home, with his changing thoughts and insights, and his great attempts to call out for some of the normalcy of the life he left behind. It is also told through the history of the times, the decisions made by others that he had no say in but greatly affected him, and how expendable life can be in times of war. This is a unique portrayal of one soldier's journey through the Vietnam War and his own inner struggle with the consequence of what he was doing.

This book examines the different forms of violence found in three plays by Irish playwright Martin McDonagh: The Beauty Queen of Leenane (1996), The Lieutenant of Inishmore (2001) and The Pillowman (2003). It can be seen that the writer works on the theme of violence constantly and recurrently, although the treatment of this theme varies and differs from one play to the next. The aim is to prove, through critical analysis, that McDonagh's writings are not a censure of Irish society, as suggested in various academic works; his plays are, in fact, a reflection on globalised society and the human beings who inhabit this global community.

In the context of the First Republic, intellectuals like Euclides da Cunha and military men like Marshal Cândido Rondon turned their eyes to the interior of Brazil. In republican schools, children learned geography from teaching programmes, textbooks and children's magazines. How do the representations of the territory produced in these two spaces converge or diverge? This is the theme investigated in this book.

Tauchen Sie ein in eine spannende und humorvolle Erzählung, die Sie ins aufregende Deutschland der 60er entführtLove, love me do! Dieses Lied trifft Marie wie ein Blitz und verändert ihr Leben für immer. Zu Beginn der 1960er Jahre, als die Beatles ihre Weltkarriere starten, steht auch die vierzehnjährige Marie vor einem Wendepunkt. Sie sehnt sich danach, aus ihrem "Gefängnis Familie" auszubrechen. Dort scheint das zerstrittene Elternpaar, geprägt von den Narben der Kriegszeit, jedes Wochenende aufs Neue erneut seine verdrängten seelischen Wunden und verpassten Lebenschancen im Ehekrieg auszukämpfen. In den Songs der Pilzköpfe findet Marie Trost ¿ besonders in ihrer schwärmerischen Liebe zu Paul McCartney. Als Marie erfährt, dass Adolf Hitler das Idol ihrer Mutter war und sie alle Hitlerlieder auswendig singen konnte, während ihr jedoch die Beatles und ihre Lieder verboten werden, ist für sie das Maß an Ungerechtigkeit voll.Ein All-Age-Book für die heutige jugendliche Leserschaft und für alle, die zur Zeit der Beatlemania jung waren und sich bis heute für die Fab Four begeistern.

Often quirky, containing unexpected, sometimes unnerving twists, these tales can catch the reader unawares. A lonely boy on holiday with his absent mother; an elderly lady still living in her exciting, wartime past; a kindly, old gentleman, trapped inside a body which no longer works; a teenage girl who finds she might possibly be capable of murder, the central characters spring to life in our imaginations as each short tale unfolds. Sometimes you are with the character, in first person, living their thoughts, sometimes you watch from a distance in third person. Sometimes you realise with a jolt that the time frame in which the story is set is not modern-day but is the 1960s, in others you are part of today's world. Wherever they take you, these are stories that will leave you wondering and may knock you off-balance.

Firefights, mortar attacks, and friendly fire were all part of the experiences of an infantryman in the jungles of the Central Highlands of Vietnam. But bugs, leeches, exhaustion, swamps, accidents, snakes, C-rations, digging in, cutting overhead cover, grief, humor, camaraderie, rain, thirst, impressive weapons, useless weapons, care packages, and much, much more filled up most of the infantryman's one-year tour in Vietnam.Daily life as an infantryman in Vietnam was a completely foreign experience compared to the lives most young American soldiers knew growing up. The war and the jungle saw to that. Soldiers had to cope and adapt. Almost all did.In this book, the author tells many stories of events he personally experienced during his year in Vietnam. Through these stories, he aptly describes the daily life and shared experiences of soldiers in the 4th Infantry Division in the jungles of Vietnam's Central Highlands.Anyone who has a personal connection with someone who served as an infantryman in Vietnam or simply has curiosity about infantry life in Vietnam will better understand, after reading this book, the answer to the question "What was daily life like for them there?"

The poignant images in this book reveal the anguish, terror, bewilderment, and happiness of children born into a war that affected their everyday lives. Those who greeted me on jungle trails were happy, frightened, and wary. Barefooted, often balancing a little brother or sister on their hip holding out a hand for anything that we might give them. The ones standing apart, fearful, harboring memories of horrific things endured or witnessed. At the time I knew little of their life realities. It was to come fitfully with time, as they confronted me in the hamlets and villages with disease, illness, and injury.

They asked their company commander, "Why are we here?" They did not understand nor wanted to be in the Vietnam War.Looking back fifty-three years, he explains the background and the causes of the War. How and why the US became mired down in turbulent times of student unrest, political assassinations, anti-war protests led by Jane Fonda, Martin Luther King and other notables, as well as Civil Rights marches, corrupt and incompetent Vietnamese governments, meanwhile Presidents and Generals quietly had doubts about the War. So, he quietly mentioned to his soldiers, "Let's do our jobs and go home." They did their jobs, went home, and nobody cared.This book is not for those expecting Rambo-type heroics. Instead, its author and his men served their country not as fighters engaged in active combat, but as engineers, quietly going about the nuts-and-bolts business of building and repairing roads, bridges, and infrastructure. They accomplished their missions through difficult conditions including heavy workloads, drug abuse, racism, doubts about the war, arguments, and heated discussions about getting the job done, and being homesick for love. He then concludes with a suggestion for future wars.

Combat Engineers. The Unsung Heroes of Vietnam.August 25, 1966. Specialist Dan Crowley was among the handful of demolition experts assigned to a route clearing mission in support of Operation AMARILLO. His equipment load was the same as it had been numerous times before: a Claymore mine, TNT, C-4 explosives, blasting caps, time fuse, det cord, eighteen rounds for his M-79 grenade launcher, two hand grenades, and his Colt .45.But this would be no ordinary mission.The Viet Cong had just surrounded an American patrol along Highway 16. Crowley's outfit - Charlie Company, 1st Engineer Battalion - was among the smattering of units thrown together for this impromptu "relief force." History would call it the Battle of Bong Trang.In a war dominated by airmobile infantry, the combat engineers played a critical role in shaping America's battlefield victories. They built obstacles, dug defensive positions, set landmines, performed various types of demolition, and could fight as infantry whenever ordered.Fire in the Hole tells the story of Charlie Company, 1st Engineer Battalion during their deployment to the Republic of Vietnam in 1965-66. Told from the perspective of four Charlie Company veterans - Dan Crowley, Larry Blair, Chuck Humphrey, and Jay Franz - this book provides an intimate, no-holds-barred account of the combat engineers in Vietnam.

Zerrissen zwischen Tradition und Moderne versucht sie dieser Aufgabe gerecht zu werden, sie wie ein Mann zu stemmen.Nastaran flüchtet aus den Konventionen und sucht neue sexuelle Erfahrungen.Janina beginnt nach dem Zusammenbruch der DDR ein neues Leben und verdrängt ihre ehemalige Tätigkeit als Mitarbeiterin der Hauptverwaltung Aufklärung.Und Victor?Victor ist als verdeckter Ermittler unterwegs. Seit zwei Jahren ist er an ihm dran, dem Boss, dem Paten der Organisation, die Drogen und Waffen verbreitet. Er nennt ihn schlicht den King. Eine Spur, die er fand, führte durch den 'Eisernen Vorhang': für ihn als Beamten des Bundeskriminalamtes eine Sackgasse. Informationen des Bundesnachrichtendienstes weisen auf eine Person, mit der er bereits ein Gefecht führt, die ihm alles nahm. Die Mauer fällt, die DDR stirbt. Sein falsches 'ICH', die Vita, die er sich zulegt hatte, übernimmt von Woche zu Woche, Monat zu Monat seinen Verstand. Er richtet sich ein, glaubt manchmal, beinahe bis zur Selbstaufgabe, der zu sein, den er mimt. Der einzige Kontakt zu seinem wahren 'Ich' ist ein Freund, ein Kollege, den er im Braunschweiger Lokal L'emigre trifft.Eine Spur bringt ihn zurück zum Fall: in die Vergangenheit, zu einem für ihn mickrigen Nachtclubbesitzer. Lag er all die Jahre daneben, hatte ihn allein der Hass geführt? Kann er es wagen, seine Maske fallenzulassen?Die Vier verbindet mehr als Freundschaft, mehr als das L'emigre und das Restaurant 'Da Giovanni': ein Mann, Fabian Zeise.

This text consists of identifying literary elements with historical guidelines in eleven stories selected from three texts entitled Historia Secreta de Chile (Secret History of Chile) written by the Chilean Jorge Baradit. These narratives are framed in historical events that occurred in Chile between the seventeenth and twentieth centuries. Such stories, with historical glimpses, make up the analysis, the purpose of which is to elucidate the author's narrative style and identify elements typical of literature. Consequently, the study is preceded by a review of the cultural-literary framework in which literary and artistic terms such as postmodernism, contemporary literature and historical fiction are examined in depth, considering theorists from the 20th century onwards. In addition, an approach has been made to the artistic and literary movement known as Freak Power, to which the author Jorge Baradit belongs. Finally, four axes of analysis have been determined: discursive reconstruction between person-fact-character, symbolism of fire, dehumanisation of the self and recusation of the dictator. These themes are transversal in the stories chosen for this analysis.

Was migration to Germany a blessing or a curse? The main argument of this book is that the Greek state conceived labor migration as a traineeship into Europeanization with its shiny varnish of progress. Jumping on a fully packed train to West Germany meant leaving the past behind. However, the tensed Cold War realities left no space for illusions; specters of the Nazi past and the Greek Civil War still haunted them all. Adopting a transnational approach, this monograph retargets attention to the sending state by exploring how the Greek Gastarbeiter's welfare was intrinsically connected with their homeland through its exercise of long-distance nationalism. Apart from its fresh take in postwar migration, the book also addresses methodological challenges in creative ways. The narrative alternates between the macro- and the micro-level, including subnational and transnational actors and integrating a diverse set of primary sources and voices. Avoiding the trap of exceptionalism, it contextualizes the Greek case in the Mediterranean and Southeast European experience.
