| wither tracing: Tracing Family Lines Amy M. Smith, 2012-10-18 Family genealogy research has grown exponentially over the past decade, making it an area worthy of scholarly inquest. Tracing Family Lines: The Impact of Genealogy Research on Family Communication, by Amy M. Smith, explores the connection between women and genealogy by examining the ways inherited familial narratives and data work to position women within American culture. Although studies of women’s lives are on the rise, the standpoint(s) of women has historically been marginalized, particularly as women continue to be relegated to domestic and family care. Through researching these standpoints, we are better able to see the political constructions of sexist oppression, as well as the ways genealogy offers a possible site for resistance. Interviewing women who are engaged in the act of researching their own family genealogy provides insight into their motivation for doing so. In documenting the family communication that surrounds the genealogical data, as well as studying the family organizational structure, this study contributes to the existing research regarding family history and family narrative. As many of these women are members of local genealogical societies, they are also able to address aspects of community membership, and the positioning of women within these organizations. As women and genealogy are both under-researched, Tracing Family Lines illuminates the experiences of women genealogists, to understand the impact of genealogical data upon family communication, and to explore family genealogy as a site of feminist resistance to the socio-political marginalization of women. |

When John disappears in the woods near their home, Anna hides what she finds there in a desperate effort to ensure her own survival. She must learn to live alone in a landscape where poachers trespass, coyotes roam, bears menace livestock, and winter starves the wild animals—while debilitating illness and long–buried secrets threaten to upturn her life. CHERA HAMMONS holds an MFA from Goddard College in Plainfield, Vermont, and serves as writer–in–residence at West Texas A&M University. The author of four books of poetry, including Maps of Injury and the 2017 Southwest Book Award winner The Traveler's Guide to Bomb City, she lives near Amarillo, Texas, with her husband, three cats, a dog, a rabbit, a donkey, and five horses. |

| wither tracing: Tamil Love Poetry Martha Ann Selby, 2011-06-07 Dating from the early decades of the third century C.E., the Ainkurunuru is believed to be the world's earliest anthology of classical Tamil love poetry. Commissioned by a Cera-dynasty king and composed by five masterful poets, the anthology illustrates the five landscapes of reciprocal love: jealous quarreling, anxious waiting and lamentation, clandestine love before marriage, elopement and love in separation, and patient waiting after marriage. Despite its centrality to literary and intellectual traditions, the Ainkurunuru remains relatively unknown beyond specialists. Martha Ann Selby, well-known translator of classical Indian poetry and literature, takes the bold step of opening this anthology to all readers, presenting crystalline translations of 500 poems dense with natural imagery and early examples of South Indian culture. Because of their form's short length, the anthology's five authors rely on double entendre and sophisticated techniques of suggestion, giving their poems an almost haikulike feel. Groups of verse center on one unique figure, in some cases an object or an animal, in others a line of direct address or a specific conversation or situation. Selby introduces each section with a biographical sketch of the poet and the conventions at work within the landscape. She then incorporates notes explaining shifting contexts. Excerpt: He has gone off all by himselfbeyond the wasteswhere tigers used to prowland the toothbrush trees grow tall,their trunks parched,on the flinty mountains, while the lovely folds of your loins, wide as a chariot's seat, vanish as your circlet worked from gold grows far too large for you. |

| wither tracing: The Last Letter Karen Baum Gordon, 2021-11-23 Part of the Legacies of War series, The Last Letter is a family memoir that spans events from the 1930s and Hitler's rise to power, through World War II and the Holocaust, to the present-day United States. Karen Baum Gordon's gripping narrative opens on her father Rudy Baum's attempted suicide in 2002 at the age of eight-six and unfolds in an investigation of generational trauma within her extensive German Jewish family. Gordon grounds her research in eighty-eight letters written mostly by Julie Baum, Rudy's mother and Gordon's grandmother, to Rudy between November 1936 and October 1941. Gordon examines pieces of these worn, handwritten letters and other archival documents in order to recreate the fatal journeys of her grandparents in the camps and ghettos of the Third Reich and trace her father's efforts to save them an ocean away in America. Doing so, Gordon discovers the forgotten fragments of her family's history and a vivid sense of her own Jewish identity-- |
| wither tracing: Programming the Logic Theory Machine Allen Newell, 1957 The Logic Theory Machine (called LT, see P-951) represents a class of non-numerical problems with quite different programming requirements than either normal arithmetic calculations or business data processing. The storage requirements are extremely variable, with the results of many computations being changed in the memory structure. The program itself is a large, complicated hierarchy of subroutines. For LT an intermediate language (interpretive pseudo code) was written for the RAND JOHNNIAC. The paper first characterizes the programming problems involved and then illustrates solutions to them by describing the language. (Author). |

I guess this line will open the doors of hope for you. And I’m not just bragging. It sure is one of the most difficult mediums to paint with and that was exactly the challenge I accepted when I started my Arts education. I thought, how difficult can it really be? I have realized over the time that everything in this world is difficult only until you learn it. If you try, you do get a grasp of it sooner or later. One very important thing is that you find someone who can teach you, and can teach you well. Here I hope I will be able to transfer as much knowledge as I can in a possibly detailed manner. If you were in a class, I would be open to questions. But that is not the case in our situation, so I want to make sure that by the time you finish this book, you won’t have any questions left. I am keeping the struggles in my mind, that I made just to learn this technique and how I wished I could get one person or a single book that could be my fairy god mother and teach me everything I needed to know in a wave of a wand. That didn’t happen, of course. But I did learn and now that I know, I want to transfer my knowledge to you. Why is water color one of the difficult materials? Everybody has their own reasons; the only reason that I am going to tell you is that they are a bit hard to control. Don’t worry! Don’t be taken aback. I’m here to teach you. This book contains activities by which you will learn to control your color, brush strokes, and many other things. |

| wither tracing: Birds of Paradise Anne Malcom, 2021-03-31 He collected beautiful things. Rare things. Ripped them out of their natural environment and preserved them in all of their dead splendor. The problem was I wasn't beautiful. I was all of the hideous and ugly realities of the world packaged into one broken human being. He came to kill me. That was his business. Death. He ripped me out of my natural environment, the prison I'd created, and locked me away with all of his beautiful dead things. I hated him. I still hate him. But if I was given the choice and the ability to leave this cage, come back to life, I'd stay dead. In all of my hideous splendor. Because my murderer can only possess dead things. And I can only be possessed by someone more broken and ugly than me. |

| wither tracing: Mandeville Studies I. Primer, 2012-12-06 For centuries readers have admired the writer who wields his pen like a sword - an Aristophanes, a Rabelais, a Montaigne, a Swift. Using ribaldry, satire and irony in varying proportions, such writers pierce the thick, comfortable hide of society and uncover, predictably, the corruption and hypocrisy that characterize the life of man in commercial society. Though a lesser talent than any of these literary giants, Bernard Mande ville is nevertheless a member of their class. The crucial year in the emergence of his reputation was 1723, the year in which he added his controversial Essay on Charity and Charity-Schools to his Fable of the Bees. From that point on he became one of the most reviled targets of the public guardians of morality and religion; for some he appeared to be truly the Devil incarnate, Mandevil, as Fielding and others spelled it. This reputation was attached to his name well into the nineteenth centu ry. In a diary entry for June 1812 Henry Crabb Robinson recorded the following conversation with the elderly Mrs. Buller: She received me with a smile, and allowed me to touch her hand. 'What are you reading, Mr. Robinson?' she said. 'The wickedest cleverest book in the English language, if you chance to know it. ' - 'I have known the Fable of the Bees more than fifty years. ' She was right in her guess. |

| wither tracing: The Power of Movement in Plants Sir Francis Darwin, Charles Darwin, 2019-11-27 In 'The Power of Movement in Plants,' the intricate choreography of plant life is brought to the fore, encompassing themes of adaptation, survival, and biological ingenuity. This collection deftly combines empirical observations with scientific reasoning to illuminate the subtle yet profound ways in which plants navigate their environment. The essays reveal an array of movements, from the gentle unfurling of leaves to the rapid snap of a Venus flytrap, showcasing a range of literary styles'Äîfrom meticulous scientific description to speculative exploration. With a preface that contextualizes the experiments within the broader discourse of natural science, this anthology invites readers to consider the dynamic life force inherent in seemingly static organisms, sparking curiosity and challenging perceptions of plant passivity. Drawing upon Sir Francis Darwin and Charles Darwin's influential contributions, this anthology reflects the rich intersection of naturalistic observation and evolutionary theory. As key figures in the scientific community of their time, the Darwin duo innovatively captured the imagination of a generation fascinated by the natural world. This collection mirrors their commitment to detailed inquiry and scientific validation, offering a lens into the late 19th-century movements that championed nature's complexity. Their collective insights bridge disparate disciplines, uniting botanists, natural historians, and layman scientists alike. 'The Power of Movement in Plants' beckons readers to explore its pages, promising a deeper appreciation of the relentless and intelligent forces that drive plant behavior. The volume provides a distinctive platform for engaging with seminal research that transcends simple botanical observation, encouraging a reevaluation of humanity's relationship with nature. Readers are invited to expand their intellectual horizons, fostering an awareness of the interconnectedness of life and the principles that underlay natural phenomena. The anthology stands as a testament to the pioneering spirit of exploration and scientific rigor, invaluable to both novices and seasoned naturalists. |
