Captain Cook in the Underworld
Author: Robert Sullivan
Publisher: Auckland University Press
ISBN: 1775580342
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 58
Book Description
Originally commissioned as the libretto for a work by composer John Psathas for the 50th birthday celebration of the Orpheus Choir, this book-length poem offers fresh perspectives on the familiar story of Cook's Pacific explorations. Employing a broad bicultural approach to reinterpret the Orpheus myth for the South Pacific, Sullivan uses a wide range of styles—from 18th-century dialogue to 21st-century hip hop cadences—to create a revisionist Cook who must accept responsibility for the damage his expeditions have inflicted on the indigenous peoples of the Pacific.

We The Oodles

Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 189
Book Description
Many years ago, the International Cricket Council and the world were told with irrefutable logic and mathematical proof that cricket was institutionally fixed. The authorities and others slept. A few years ago this was vindicated even through judicial process in the top Court of India. Everyone still remained in deep slumber. A key insider said this year that all cricket matches we see were fixed, akin to movies directed by someone else. Tippers openly announce same on social media round the clock. Yet, no one is concerned. What does it mean and how serious are the implications— financial, political, and social? Atul Kumar contemplates hard and deep, recounting his tumultuous odyssey, straight from the heart, with no holds barred. Recent global catastrophe from Corona virus curiously and sorely connects. Finally, here is a copy that will confound the learned readers many times over. Supported by the recorded account, it unravels all around camouflage; leading us to a new cherished order. An explosive work of distilled sagacity to mesmerise everyone across borders, religions, professions, genders, and generations. A must read for one and all. "We The Oodles" by Atul Kumar: Atul Kumar's book is likely a work of fiction or literature that explores the lives, experiences, or stories of a group of individuals or a community referred to as "Oodles." It may involve themes related to identity and belonging. Key Aspects of the Book "We The Oodles": Character Exploration: The book may delve into the lives and experiences of the "Oodles" community, providing insights into their identities and struggles. Community Dynamics: Atul Kumar likely explores the dynamics within the "Oodles" community and their interactions with the larger society. Themes of Belonging: "We The Oodles" may touch upon themes of identity, belonging, and cultural diversity. The meta biography for Atul Kumar is not provided; however, he is likely the author of this work of fiction or literature.

Sex and Race, Volume 1
Author: J. A. Rogers
Publisher: Wesleyan University Press
ISBN: 0819575542
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 316
Book Description
In the Sex and Race series, first published in the 1940s, historian Joel Augustus Rogers questioned the concept of race, the origins of racial differentiation, and the root of the "color problem." Rogers surmised that a large percentage of ethnic differences are the result of sociological factors and in these volumes he gathered what he called "the bran of history"—the uncollected, unexamined history of black people—in the hope that these neglected parts of history would become part of the mainstream body of Western history. Drawing on a vast amount of research, Rogers was attempting to point out the absurdity of racial divisions. Indeed his belief in one race—humanity—precluded the idea of several different ethnic races. The series marshals the data he had collected as evidence to prove his underlying humanistic thesis: that people were one large family without racial boundaries. Self-trained and self-published, Rogers and his work were immensely popular and influential during his day, even cited by Malcolm X. The books are presented here in their original editions.
