Claiming the Stones, Naming the Bones
Author: Elazar Barkan
Publisher: Getty Publications
ISBN: 0892366737
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 388
Book Description
These fourteen essays address controversies over a variety of cultural properties, exploring them from perspectives of law, archeology, physical anthropology, ethnobiology, ethnomusicology, history, and cultural and literary study. The book divides cultural property into three types: Tangible, unique property like the Parthenon marbles; intangible property such as folktales, music, and folk remedies; and communal "representations," which have lead groups to censor both outsiders and insiders as cultural traitors.

A Name Engraved in Stone
Author: Judith Lienhardt
Publisher: iUniverse
ISBN: 0595232701
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 110
Book Description
This is a story about a young man who had to grow up in a hurry. Forest Shelburn Nelson was a soldier in World War II, an aerial gunner in a B-25 Mitchell medium bomber aircraft. He fought the war in the sky. This young teenager, who was competing in sports at high school, was now a man shooting down enemy planes. This young man's life tragically ended at the tender age of twenty. His letters were very romantic, thoughtful, and loving. It's difficult to witness the man, his plans, his hopes, his dreams, to just disappear in such a short time. War's tragic consistent legacy remains that there is little more than a few medals on his chest, letters, or pictures to remember Forest by. Forest's feelings about World War II; but I am sure he put every ounce of his being into fighting for his beliefs. It makes no difference which war a loved one has fought in, there always someone who knows him or her a "DEDICATED SOLDIER." Whether your loved ones are dead or live, you are not alone! We each have our private wars that we endure.
