Brooding over Bloody Revenge - Nikki M. Taylor

From the colonial through the antebellum era, enslaved women in the US used lethal force as the ultimate form of resistance. By amplifying their voices and experiences, Brooding over Bloody Revenge strongly challenges assumptions that enslaved women only participated in covert, non-violent forms of resistance, when in fact they consistently seized justice for themselves and organized toward revolt. Nikki M. Taylor expertly reveals how women killed for deeply personal instances of injustice committed by their owners. The stories presented, which span centuries and legal contexts, demonstrate that these acts of lethal force were carefully pre-meditated. Enslaved women planned how and when their enslavers would die, what weapons and accomplices were necessary, and how to evade capture in the aftermath. Original and compelling, Brooding Over Bloody Revenge presents a window into the lives and philosophies of enslaved women who had their own ideas about justice and how to achieve it.

The World Exists to Set Us Free - Larry Rosenberg, Madeline Drexler

Down-to-earth wisdom on how to live a life of authenticity and spiritual integrity, from one of the West’s most respected teachers of vipassana meditation.How does dharma wisdom show up in our lives every day? This collection of teachings by the beloved Insight Meditation teacher Larry Rosenberg offers clear, down-to-earth guidance on learning how to live a life informed by Buddhism—through questioning, reflective observation, and self-understanding. Rosenberg is known for presenting the essence of the Buddhism in a way that is unvarnished, utterly accessible, and that resonates with a wide audience. Here he unpacks—with his signature engaging and iconoclastic style—such topics as meditation, silence, use of the breath, self-knowing, working with strong emotions, intimacy, illness and grief, among others.   There are few teachers who so epitomize the idea of “spiritual friend” in the way that Larry Rosenberg does. His teachings give a clear sense that dharma is very much a part of everyday life. This book is also informed by what Rosenberg considers his deeper and more immediate understanding of dharma that has come in recent years—a period marked in his own life by illness and disability—and in the life of the planet by a deadly pandemic, war, an ...

Whatever It Is, I'm Against It - Brian Rosenberg

An invigorating work that identifies obstructions to transformative change in higher education and offers paths to break through. In “Whatever It Is, I’m Against It,” president emeritus of Macalester College Brian Rosenberg draws on decades of higher education experience to expose the entrenched structures, practices, and cultures that inhibit meaningful postsecondary reform, even as institutions face serious challenges to their financial and educational models. A lively insider’s account, the book pinpoints factors that hinder the ability of U.S. colleges and universities to be creative and entrepreneurial amid calls to improve affordability, access, and equity for students. Through pithy personal stories of divisive town hall meetings, multiyear college governance battles, and attempts at curricular reform, Rosenberg illustrates internal and external dynamics that impede institutional evolution. Pressures such as declining enrollment, escalating costs, and an oversupply of PhDs in academia have long signaled a grave need for reform within a profession that, as Rosenberg ruefully acknowledges, lacks organizational flexibility, depends greatly on reputation and ranking, and retains traditions, from the academic calendar to grading systems, that have remained essentially the same for decades. Rosenberg looks outside the U.S. system to find possible antidotes in innovative higher education models such as student-centered and ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Nenásilná komunikace a moc - Marshall B. Rosenberg

Nenásilná komunikace zná dva koncepty moci: moc nad někým a moc s někým. Moc nad někým má ten, kdo druhé kritizuje, obviňuje, zahanbuje, odměňuje či trestá a podobně. Moc s někým má člověk, který zná a uznává svoje hodnoty a potřeby i hodnoty a potřeby druhých lidí, a ti mu v důsledku toho přisuzují pozici moci, protože věří, že jim pomůže v naplňování jejich potřeb. Základem knihy je seminář, který měl v Itálii před lety tvůrce metody Marshall Rosenberg ve spolupráci s Vilmou Costetti, jež byla první trenérkou nenásilné komunikace v Itálii. Formou rozhovoru s účastníky semináře Rosenberg rozebírá různé kontexty moci, např. politiku, podnikání, školu nebo rodinu. Zabývá se i mocí empatie a jejím vlivem na lidské zdraví. Kniha nám jednoduchým jazykem ukazuje, jakým způsobem si teoreticky i prakticky osvojit moc, jejíž síla spočívá v tom, že jednáme v souladu a společně s druhými. Marshall Rosenberg byl americký psycholog, mediátor, autor a učitel, který vytvořil metodu nenásilné komunikace, tj. proces, který podporuje partnerství a pomáhá řešit konflikty mezi lidmi, ve vztazích, a v komunitách. V Portále vyšly jeho knihy Nenásilná komunikace a Co řeknete, změní váš svět.

Rehab - Shoshana Walter

Pulitzer finalist Shoshana Walter exposes the country’s failed response to the opioid crisis, and the malfeasance, corruption, and snake oil which blight the drug rehabilitation industry.Our country’s leaders all seem to agree: People who suffer from addiction need treatment. Today, more people have access to treatment than ever before. So why isn’t it working? The answer is that in America—where anyone can get addicted—only certain people get a real chance to recover. Despite record numbers of overdose deaths, our default response is still to punish, while rehabs across the United States fail to incorporate scientifically proven strategies and exploit patients. We’ve heard a great deal about the opioid crisis foisted on America by Big Pharma, but we’ve heard too little about the other half of this epidemic—the reason why so many remain mired in addiction. Until now. In this book, you’ll find the stories of four people who represent the failures of the rehab-industrial complex, and the ways our treatment system often prevents recovery.

Co řeknete, změní váš svět - Marshall B. Rosenberg

V každé situaci může člověk tím, jak mluví (k ostatním, ale i k sobě ve svých myšlenkách), buď podporovat pokoj, porozumění a mír, nebo násilí. Rosenberg ukazuje, jak jazyk a komunikace v tomto smyslu fungují a učí, jak redukovat bolest a násilí, které z nich mohou bezděčně vycházet, a naopak léčit zranění, budovat vnitřní pokoj a lásku. Jeho cílem je rozvíjet vnitřní vědomí míru, které může být zakořeněno v jazyce, který denně užíváme. Rosenbergova kniha není návodem, jak vést nenásilnou komunikaci, ale spíše ilustrací toho, jak funguje. Je plná inspirativních příkladů a příběhů ze světa mezilidských vztahů, které vycházejí z autorovy více než čtyřicetileté zkušenosti. Nabízí mnohem širší a hlubší pohled na problém komunikace, který se mění v jistý druh spirituality – výzvy k nenásilnému chování jak vůči sobě, tak okolí. Marshall B. Rosenberg byl mezinárodně uznávaný odborník na komunikaci, zakladatel Centra pro Nenásilnou komunikaci a mediátor. V Portále vyšla jeho velmi úspěšná kniha Nenásilná komunikace.

Alfred Rosenberg - Alfred Rosenberg, Frank Bajohr, Jürgen Matthäus

Deníky ideologa nacistické strany a státu (1893-1946), který se již velmi záhy stal jedním z nejradikálnějších antisemitů a až do samého konce aktivně podporoval nacistickou vyhlazovací politiku. Rosenberg v denících věnuje pozornost aktuálnímu dění a otevřeně prezentuje své úvahy o nacionálněsocialistickém "světovém názoru", jehož byl horlivým propagátorem, o boji proti křesťanství, o nadřazenosti germánské rasy. V souvislosti se svým jmenováním "ministrem pro Východ" se zabývá způsoby, jak ovládnout "východní národy", "židobolševismem" a "řešením židovské otázky". Otevřeně píše o svých nedobrých vztazích s některými dalšími nacistickými veličinami (Goebbelsem, Himmlerem, Ribbentropem a dalšími), naopak až devótní úctou zahrnuje svého vůdce.

Rosenberg, Ph.D. byl americký psycholog a tvůrce konceptu nenásilné komunikace. Vyrůstal v neklidné detroitské čtvrti, kde si vypěstoval hluboký zájem o nové formy komunikace, které by poskytly alternativu násilí, s nímž se setkával. Jeho zájem ho dovedl až k doktorátu z klinické psychologie, který získal v roce 1961 na Univerzitě ve Wisconsinu, kde studoval pod vedením Carla R. Rogerse. Další životní zkušenosti a studium srovnávací religionistiky ho motivovaly k rozvíjení principu nenásilné komunikace. Desítky let pracoval ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Nenásilná komunikace – řeč života - Marshall B. Rosenberg - audiokniha

Audiokniha: Klíč k tomu, jak řešit spory ne prostřednictvím síly, ale s porozuměním. Psycholog Marshall B. Rosenberg vypracoval metodu nenásilné komunikace, již lze použít nejen v blízkých vztazích, ale také ve výchově, vyjednávání či politických konfliktech. Americký psycholog Marshall B. Rosenberg vypracoval v šedesátých letech minulého století metodu nenásilné komunikace. Při jejím objasňování vychází z toho, co je jejím opakem. Je to například moralizující posuzování, které naznačuje pochybení na straně lidí, kteří nejednají v souladu s našimi hodnotami. Je to i klasifikování a souzení druhých. A je to i srovnávání se s jinými lidmi, které je podle psychologa Greenburga tou nejzaručenější cestou, jak se cítit mizerně. Rosenbergova metoda je založena na naslouchání sobě i partnerovi, ochotě vnímat potřeby a pocity vlastní i druhého. Tato metoda pomáhá překonávat navyklé vzorce v jednání s ostatními, napomáhá k řešení konfliktů a rozvíjí vztahy založené na úctě a spolupráci.

Seventeen-year-old Leopold Berry is seeing weird things around Los Angeles. A man who pops a tooth into a parking meter.A glowing trapdoor in a parking lot. A half-mechanical raccoon with its tail on fire that just won’t leave him alone.

Not a good sign.In the blurry weeks after his mother’s death, a young Leopold discovered VHS tapes of its one and only season in a box headed for the trash—and soon became obsessed. Losing himself in Sunder was the best way to avoid two things: grieving his mother and being a chronic disappointment to his overbearing father. But when the strange visions return—at the worst possible time on the worst possible day—Leopold turns to his best friend Emmet for help.Together they discover that Sunder is much more than just an old TV show, and that Los Angeles is far stranger than they ever imagined. And soon, he’ll realize that not only is Sunderworld real, but it’s in grave ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Interior Landscape - Mirta Rosenberg

Mirta Rosenberg (1951-2019) is a key poet of the ’80s generation in Argentina. In Interior Landscape, Rosenberg explores questions of life and death, of changes experienced in one’s body through time and the resulting changes in perspective.These poems contemplate the dislocation of the self, posing questions about the relationship between subjectivity, perception, the body, and memory. Rosenberg’s voice is at once autobiographical and critical, displaying the interior landscapes of its experience as well as the complex ways that language forms a fundamental part of that experience. Originally published in Spanish in Argentina in 2012, Interior Landscape is the first book-length translation of Rosenberg’s poetry to be published in English.

Accessing the Healing Power of the Vagus Nerve - Stanley Rosenberg

The best-selling book on the topic—now in 15 languages. This practical guide to understanding the cranial nerves as the key to our psychological and physical well-being builds on Stephen Porges’s Polyvagal Theory—one of the most important recent developments in human neurobiology. Drawing on more than thirty years of experience as a craniosacral therapist and Rolfer, Stanley Rosenberg explores the crucial role that the vagus nerve plays in determining our psychological and emotional states and explains that a myriad of common psychological and physical symptoms—from anxiety and depression to migraines and back pain—indicates a lack of proper functioning in the vagus nerve. Through a series of easy self-help exercises, the book illustrates the simple ways we can regulate the vagus nerve in order to initiate deep relaxation, improve sleep, and recover from injury and trauma. Additionally, by exploring the link between a well-regulated vagus nerve and social functioning, Rosenberg’s findings and methods offer new hope that by improving social behavior it is possible to alleviate some of the symptoms at the core of many cases of autism spectrum disorders. Useful for psychotherapists, doctors, bodyworkers, and caregivers, as well as anyone who experiences the symptoms of chronic stress and depression, this book ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Queer Print in Europe

How have radical print cultures fostered and preserved queer lived experience from the 1960s to the present? What alternative stories about queer life across Europe can visual material reveal? Queer Print in Europe is the first book devoted to the exploration of queer print cultures in Europe, following the birth of an international gay rights movement in the late 1960s. By unearthing these ephemeral paper documents from archives and personal collections, including materials that have been out of circulation since they were first distributed, this book examines how the production and dissemination of queer print intersected with the emergence of LGBTQ+ activism within specific national contexts. This vital contribution to queer history explores borders and political movements, and the ways in which these materials contributed, through their international circulation, to the creation of a ‘post-national’ queer community.Illustrated throughout with examples of manifestos, flyers, posters, zines and other forms of print media, it features interviews with those responsible for making, distributing or archiving queer print, alongside a series of new theoretical essays that set particular publications and the individuals and groups that produced them in context. The book isolates specific instances of queer print media and scrutinises their design aesthetics, identifying ... Unknown localization key: "more"

The Empire of Civil Society - Justin Rosenberg

The Empire of Civil Society rejects outright the goal of theorising geopolitical systems in isolation from wider social structures. In a series of case studies – including Classical Greece, Renaissance Italy and the Portuguese and Spanish empires – Justin Rosenberg shows how his historical-materialist analysis is a surer guide to understanding geopolitical systems than the supposedly timeless verities of realism. Rosenberg demonstrates that the distinctive properties of the sovereign-state system are best understood as corresponding to the framework of capitalist society. In this light, realism emerges as incapable of explaining what it has always insisted is the central feature of the interstate order – the balance of power.Winner of the 1994 Deutscher Memorial Prize

The World of Christopher Marlowe - Professor David Riggs

David Riggs evokes the atmosphere and texture of Marlowe''s life, from the stench and poverty of a childhood spent near Canterbury''s abattoirs to the fanatical pursuit of classical learning at school. Marlowe won a place at Cambridge University, where he entered its world of 18-hour working days, religious intrigue and twilight homosexuality, tolerated but unspoken. The gifted student was not immune to the passions and fears of the wider society, and Riggs describes the mood of England in those years when Elizabeth''s crown was anything but secure, and Spain and the Papacy were determined to overthrow her regime. Looming above everything is the Elizabethan state and its spy rings, with which Marlowe was already involved by the time he left Cambridge. His undercover missions brought him into contact with Catholic conspirators who were plotting to kill the Queen; yet as a playwright and thinker he was attracted to the most unorthodox and threatening idea of all - atheism. Marlowe''s brief life was enigmatic, contradictory and glorious - and this magisterial work of reconstruction and scholarship illuminates it with immense richness.

Queer Career - Margot Canaday

A masterful history of the queer workforce in AmericaWorkplaces have traditionally been viewed as “straight spaces” in which queer people passed. As a result, historians have directed limited attention to the experiences of queer people on the job. Queer Career rectifies this, offering an expansive historical look at sexual minorities in the modern American workforce. Arguing that queer workers were more visible than hidden and, against the backdrop of state aggression, vulnerable to employer exploitation, Margot Canaday positions employment and fear of job loss as central to gay life in postwar America. Rather than finding that many midcentury employers tried to root out gay employees, Canaday sees an early version of “don’t ask / don’t tell”: in all kinds of work, as long as queer workers were discreet, they were valued for the lower wages they could be paid, their contingency, their perceived lack of familial ties, and the ease with which they could be pulled in and pushed out of the labor market. Across the socioeconomic spectrum, they were harbingers of post-Fordist employment regimes we now associate with precarity. While progress was not linear, by century’s end some gay workers rejected their former discretion, and some employers eventually offered ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Unsettling Queer Anthropology

This field-defining volume of queer anthropology foregrounds both the brilliance of anthropological approaches to queer and trans life and the ways queer critique can reorient and transform anthropology. Consisting of fourteen original essays by both distinguished and new voices, Unsettling Queer Anthropology advances a vision of queer anthropology grounded in decolonial, abolitionist, Black feminist, transnational, postcolonial, Indigenous, and queer of color approaches. Critically assessing both anthropology’s queer innovations and its colonialist legacies, contributors highlight decades of work in queer anthropology; challenge the boundaries of anthropology’s traditional methodologies, forms, and objects of study; and forge a critical, queer of color, decolonizing queer anthropology that unsettles anthropology’s normative epistemologies. At a moment of revitalized calls to reckon with the white supremacist and settler colonial logics that continue to shape anthropology, this volume advances an anthropology accountable to the vitality of queer and trans life.
