Ethnography centers on the culture of everyday life. So it is ironic that most scholars who do research on the intimate experiences of ordinary people write their books in a style that those people cannot understand. In recent years, the ethnographic method has spread from its original home in cultural anthropology to fields such as sociology, marketing, media studies, law, criminology, education, cultural studies, history, geography, and political science.  Yet, while more and more students and practitioners are learning how to write ethnographies, there is little or no training on how to write ethnographies well.  From Notes to Narrative picks up where methodological training leaves off. Kristen Ghodsee, an award-winning ethnographer, addresses common issues that arise in ethnographic writing. Ghodsee works through sentence-level details, such as word choice and structure. She also tackles bigger-picture elements, such as how to incorporate theory and ethnographic details, how to effectively deploy dialogue, and how to avoid distracting elements such as long block quotations and in-text citations. She includes excerpts and examples from model ethnographies. The book concludes with a bibliography of other useful writing guides and nearly one hundred examples of eminently readable ethnographic books.

A practical and uplifting vision of better ways to live together, own property, have families and raise children, from the author of Why Women Have Better Sex Under Socialism.''Kristen Ghodsee is back with another splendid insight: utopia can and ought to be an everyday thing. In every home. Invigorating writing for a cheerless era'' YANIS VAROUFAKIS''History is made by the dreamers ... A must-read'' THOMAS PIKETTY---The traditional ''nuclear'' family home is a problem: it places unfair and unnecessary burdens on women (and men too), it entrenches inequalities, it entraps us financially and it hinders certain kinds of child development. Also, it doesn''t seem to make us very happy.And yet throughout history and around the world today, forward-thinking communities have pioneered alternative ways of living - from the all-female ''beguinages'' of medieval Belgium to the matriarchal ecovillages of contemporary Colombia; from the ancient Greek commune founded by Pythagoras, where men and women lived as equals and shared property, to present-day Connecticut, where new laws make it easier for extra ''alloparents'' to help raise children not their own.

New in paperback (originally published as The Comfort Zone). What would it take for you to really love your life? To feel genuinely happy, positive, and fulfilled? The answer may be simpler than you think.

It''s situated safely in your Comfort Zone. No matter what you''ve been told, your comfort zone is NOT your danger zone. It''s not the place where dreams spiral down and die. It''s the opposite.

From a state of deep and chronic discomfort—at one point experiencing panic attacks so severe she couldn’t get out of bed—she transformed a life of merely surviving into a life of truly thriving. In these pages, she shares how you, too, can find the key to: · self-love and self-esteem · feeling genuinely happy · overcoming fear ... Unknown localization key: "more"

She shows why utopian thinking is essential to making a fairer world and that many of the best ways of getting there begin at home.

Debutová sbírka povídek mladé autorky proplouvá mezi žánry, pohrává si s tématy, jako je gender, sex a moc, a odhaluje jejich temné i vtipné stránky. Je geniální sondou do toho, co je na ženách děsivé, i brilantním popisem hrůz, kterých se na nich dopouštějí ostatní. V povídkách se setkáváme s desetiletou dívkou, jejíž narozeninová oslava se nepěkně zvrtne poté, co si přeje "něco ošklivýho"; se ženou, která najde v knihovně zastrčenou knihu čar a kouzel a zhmotní touhu svého srdce; s bezejmenným naháčem či niternými myšlenkovými pochody typického "správňáka". A celá sbírka jako by na nás ukazovala prstem a vyzývala nás, jen ať se cítíme nepříjemně nebo - v horším případě - ať pro to máme pochopení. Jako by říkala: "Ty to chceš, že? Ty víš, že to chceš."

Where are you from? No, where are you really from? explores three central themes: migration, identity and belonging, examining them in the context of empire, and its continuing impact on the lives of those in Britain today. The question, ''Where are you from?'' is familiar to all. But for people of colour, it more often than not carries an insinuation that they don''t really belong. This is made explicit in the frequent follow-up: ''No, where are you really from?'' This book explores why the question continues to be asked and considers its impact on people of colour.The author draws on memoir and historical research, tracing the experiences of empire and migration across seven generations of her family, delving back to the 1760s, spanning various countries, including Britain, Ireland, Imperial India and Singapore. She sets the stories of individual women and men in the socio-political contexts of their times and discusses the factors that lead them to set out on uncertain and arduous journeys across continents, including conflict, abduction, displacement, economic necessity, and love.

A story of migration, identity and belonging, drawing on the stories of people from Audrey Osler''s mixed-heritage family, over three centuries. Whether or not we trace our families from beyond the shores of Britain, we British people deserve a better understanding of our shared past, and opportunities to explore and recognise the complexities and contractions of empire. Careless or wilful amnesia has allowed the British migration narrative to begin in the mid-twentieth century, with migrants from India, Pakistan and the Caribbean forming the foundation of present-day multicultural Britain. A racist fixation means that some twenty-first-century Britons fantasise that people of colour arrived after World War Two, without any link to the country, to exploit the British welfare state and British hospitality.For people of colour the questions, Where are you from? No, where are you really from? often imply more than simple curiosity. They are political questions of identity, since the assumption (naive or aggressive) is that to be British and to belong you must be white. Says Audrey Osler: ''The British Empire frames and shapes my family''s history.

The authors of this book address the topic of image in conjunction with the topic of narrative. Both of these come together in what we might call a tableau or a scene, and the book therefore also addresses a fundamental characteristic of the current age, which may in all seriousness be termed the age of universal staging. This state of affairs is the outcome of developments in two areas. The first is the new approach to selling which emerged in the middle of the 19th century, whereby shops offered goods for sale at fixed prices and presented or staged the goods in such a way that they became an enticement to the consumer. The second of these developments is the proliferation and growing power of the media, from newspapers to magazines to the internet, made possible by technological developments that started with photography and then progressed to film, radio, television and video and all the way to the personal computer, as well as from analogue-based methods of recording and distributing information to digital methods.

The Virgin Queen was a hard act to follow for a Scottish newcomer who faced a host of problems in his first years as king: not only the ghost of his predecessor and her legacy but also unrest in Ireland, serious questions about his legitimacy on the English throne, and even plots to remove him (most famously the Gunpowder Plot of 1605).Contrary to traditional assumptions, James's accession was by no means a smooth one.
