    "Like its predecessor, the second edition of Fundamental Written Chinese provides students with a clear, systematic, and graduated introduction to written Mandarin Chinese with chapters designed not only to teach the content of the lessons, but also build on the proficiency the student has acquired. The authors continue the tradition of separating the teaching of written and oral skills, leaving the instruction of vocabulary and grammar exclusively to the accompanying Fundamental Spoken Chinese, also in its second edition. The lessons in the two textbooks, however, are keyed to each other, so they may be used simultaneously or the parallel written skills introduced at a later time. Both textbooks were developed for learning in the classroom and for independent study. Fundamental Written Chinese begins by educating readers on the crucial knowledge of the Chinese writing system so they are well-equipped for the practical application of Chinese characters. Following chapters include a list of vocabulary items, exercises, multiple charts explaining the characters' usage, mnemonics and memory suggestions, supplementary texts, and space for writing practice. This textbook teaches comprehension of written Chinese by methodically focusing on structural regularities such as radicals, phonetic components, and stroke order. The lessons are organized so students begin with simple independent characters before moving to the more complex compound characters"--

    "Like its predecessor, the second edition of Fundamental Spoken Chinese places primary importance on providing a clear, systematic, and graduated introduction to the basic grammar and vocabulary of spoken Mandarin Chinese through chapters that center on identified sentence patterns and vocabulary items rather than particular social functions or daily activities. The authors continue the tradition of separating the teaching of oral and written skills, leaving the instruction of reading and writing in Chinese characters exclusively to the accompanying Fundamental Written Chinese, also in its second edition. The lessons in the two textbooks, however, are keyed to each other in terms of vocabulary and grammar, so they may be used simultaneously or the parallel written skills introduced at a later time. Both textbooks were developed for learning in the classroom and for independent study. Every chapter of Fundamental Spoken Chinese begins with key grammar points and vocabulary arranged by part of speech. A list of sentence patterns and a few short dialogues follow to illustrate contextual use of the language-all new and updated for the second edition. Lessons are introduced in a planned order that gives students time to assimilate a concept before learning the next one. The material is explained in a concise yet complete fashion that alerts users to the similarities and differences between Chinese and English grammar. Non-technical explanations of each grammar pattern, written from the perspective of an English-speaking learner and supported by ample examples, are presented together with vocabulary, culture, and dialectal notes when appropriate. The accompanying Fundamental Spoken Chinese Exercise Book contains a wide variety of exercises and activities specifically designed to reinforce a systematic progression that focuses on developing accuracy then fluency in conversations"--

    Summer in Oklahoma always brings heat, storm, and explosions of life on the tallgrass prairie, one of the most severely threatened ecosystems on earth. In recent summers, human drama has eclipsed its natural wonders. A global pandemic caught the state in a death grip, along with new moments of reckoning with Oklahoma's painful demographic history, including the removal of Native People to Indian Territory after the Civil War and the infamous Tulsa Race Massacre in 1921. Oklahoma Summer registers its summer heat, celebrates Oklahoma's beauty, laments its people's pain, and reaches for new possibilities.

    Sagebrush Songs arises from the northern New Mexico landscape, remote and unique. The headwaters of the Rio Grande and one of its major tributaries, the Rio Chama, originate in the southern Rocky Mountains. A high desert plateau stretches between the Tusas and Sangre de Christo ranges in this mountain system. The Rio Grande rift, a major continental rift zone, runs through the plateau. As a transitional zone between alpine forests and shortgrass prairie, the sagebrush mesa supports diverse animal and plant communities. A scenic roadway around Wheeler Peak, the highest point in New Mexico, defines the Enchanted Circle a few miles north of the Taos Pueblo. Pueblo Peak, popularly known as Taos Mountain, is revered because the Taos Pueblo's water supply originates there, and because of the mountain's striking contour in the Sangre de Christo range.The ancient Chinese understanding of Tao sees mountains and rivers as expressions of yin and yang, the energies that animate fundamental creative material. Tao, or "the Way," contemplates mountains and rivers in terms of processes that continually generate and regenerate all things as they emerge from and recede into empty absence. Classical Chinese poetry meditates on such landscape features and their empty spaces. Learning to be present in northern New Mexico enables me to understand why this is so. Sagebrush Songs is my meditation on its mountains and rivers as manifestations of the Way of all things.

    Supremely inventive, exact, and shivery in its timely connection to the language of an ancient civilization, Margaret Lee's Someone Else's Earth takes us to a place and time we have never belonged yet have always belonged; to the beginnings of lyric expression and the telescoping in and out of the world of isolated despair. Reading this intricate and deeply moving series of poems as human existence is threatened to be erased, Someone Else's Earth is constructed of bits and pieces of what remains of Sappho's verse, almost as sherds of pottery being fit back together. Keep this book by your bed, under your pillow, within easy reach. Someone Else's Earth awakens the Possible for everyone in every time.-Susan Kay Anderson, author of Mezzanine and Please Plant This Book Coast To Coast.Erasure is much in vogue these days as a literary technique, but Margaret Lee knows erasure is what has happened to almost all of the work of the ancient Greek poet Sappho. So, guided by the needs of our present moment, she has crafted a debut book of striking poems - erasure in reverse - poems that flesh out Sappho's fragments into her own (Margaret's) personal myth. Savor these poems and get a sense of an emerging poet whose life-long studies of ancient Greek language and literature inform a book displaying a love of language and deep thirst for purpose at a time we need it most.-Paul E Nelson, Founder of SPLAB, Author of A Time Before Slaughter/ Pig War: & Other Songs of CascadiaWhenever I read Sappho my heart breaks upon the fragments. With a few poems my heart takes off, but with many bits and pieces I am dashed upon the meagre debris. Margaret Lee adroitly, eloquently and relentlessly "knits up the ravell'd" remains of some of Sappho's scraps, weaving nothing less than a stunning damask. In so doing, Lee caresses those ancient words, ingeniously transforming remnants into revelations. Sappho's fragments become Lee's starting blocks. Lee runs with what is left as her words gather their own momentum and reach triumphantly what the Greeks would recognize as word-weaving par excellence.-Arthur J. Dewey, Professor Theology at Xavier University, is the author of Wisdom Notes: Theological Riffs on Life and Living.Sappho's lyrical poetry emerged in Greece more than 25 centuries ago, influencing early Romans like Horace and Seneca, and later poets who exploited her themes and syllabic patterns in their own work. Known as the Tenth Muse, she fascinated early European poets as well as modern scholars across the globe. Margaret Lee's debut collection does not attempt a rerun of the past, but instead riffs freely on Sapphic fragments in 21st century poems that are a delight to read. You will savor this delicious book.-Sandra Soli, poet and author
