reclaiming our story ben m freeman

Introducing the contemporary conversation on internalised Jew-hate, Reclaiming Our Story is the second instalment of world-renowned educator Ben M. Freeman''s seminal manifesto of the modern Jewish Pride movement that has revolutionised the Jewish world. In this groundbreaking work, Freeman takes his readers – both Jewish and non-Jewish – on a powerful journey that explores the impact of Jew-hate on Jews and the long history of internalised anti-Jewishness. Most importantly, Freeman will educate, inspire and empower his Jewish readers to look inside themselves – with empathy and without shame – to identify their own experiences with internalised anti-Jewishness so they can reclaim their Jewish stories, ultimately moving from prejudice to pride.

WITH A NEW AFTERWORD ABOUT THE 2020 ELECTION“This urgent book offers not only a clear-eyed explanation of the forces that broke our politics, but a thoughtful and, yes, patriotic vision of how we create a government that’s truly by and for the people.”—DAVID DALEY, bestselling author of Ratf**ked and UnriggedIn the vein of On Tyranny and How Democracies Die, the bestselling author of Republic, Lost argues with insight and urgency that our democracy no longer represents us and shows that reform is both necessary and possible. America’s democracy is in crisis. Along many dimensions, a single flaw—unrepresentativeness—has detached our government from the people. And as a people, our fractured partisanship and ignorance on critical issues drive our leaders to stake out ever more extreme positions. In They Don’t Represent Us, Harvard law professor Lawrence Lessig charts the way in which the fundamental institutions of our democracy, including our media, respond to narrow interests rather than to the needs and wishes of the nation’s citizenry. But the blame does not only lie with “them”—Washington’s politicians and power brokers, Lessig argues. The problem is also “us.” “We the people” are increasingly uninformed about the issues, while ubiquitous political polling exacerbates the problem, ... Unknown localization key: "more"

In Reclaiming Unlived Life, influential psychoanalyst Thomas Ogden uses rich clinical examples to illustrate how different types of thinking may promote or impede analytic work. With a unique style of "creative reading," the book builds upon the work of Winnicott and Bion, discussing the universality of unlived life and the ways unlived life may be reclaimed in the analytic experience. The book examines the role of intuition in analytic practice and the process of developing an analytic style that is uniquely oneÂ’s own.Ogden deals with many forms of interplay of truth and psychic change, the transformative effect of conscious and unconscious efforts to confront the truth of experience and how psychoanalysts can understand their own psychic evolution, as well as that of their patients. Reclaiming Unlived Life sets out a new way that analysts can understand and use notions of truth in their clinical work and in their reading of the work of Kafka and Borges. Reclaiming Unlived Life: Experiences in Psychoanalysis will appeal to psychoanalysts and psychoanalytic psychotherapists, as well as postgraduate students and anybody interested in the literature of psychoanalysis.

To třetí slovíčko, „kámo“, je možné dle libosti nahradit jiným, vaší přirozenosti bližším, třeba „kapišto?“ apod. Michael Freeman ve své nejnovější knize zúročil mnoho let své fotografické i pedagogické praxe a spolupráce s řadou vydavatelství prestižních časopisů i publikací. Staví před fotografa zásadní otázku: Jak jste spokojen se svými fotografiemi? Chcete se posunout dál? A odpovídá na ni jasně a konkrétně: Jde to, ale musíte probudit svoji kreativitu. Fotografující majitelé fotoaparátů jsou velmi často sváděni vějičkami typu: Tři rady (nebo pět, deset…), které hned a výrazně vylepší vaše fotografie.

Crying Freeman: Plačící drak je přístupný od osmnácti let výše. Nabízí příběh vraha, který se zamiluje do jedné ze svých obětí. Crying Freeman je kriminálka, ve které se spojuje romantika s brutální nelítostností. Je to jako příběh Romeo a Julie převyprávěný markýzem de Sade a natočený Tony Scottem. Japonsky přepálené emoce a osudovost se tu střetávají s tím, co se pohledu evropana může jevit jako naprostá amorálnost. To vše navíc naprosto precizně vykreslené s perfektně rozfázovanými akčními scénami. Text praví: Jmenuje se Jo Hinomura a je nájemným vrahem čínské mafie zvané Sto osm draků. V kriminálním podsvětí, které z něj má strach, je však známý jako Plačící drak, zabiják, který nad osudem svých obětí prolévá slzy. Mladý, krásný a citlivý umělec Jo byl svými dračími pány psychologicky naprogramován, aby zabíjel na rozkaz. Vůli svých pánů se vzepřít nemůže, oni však zase nemohou zastavit jeho slzy lítosti. Manga Crying Freeman, kterou napsal legendární Kazuo Koike, autor série Lone Wolf and Cub (Osamělý vlk a vlče), a nakreslil nedostižný Rjoiči Ikegami, je čtením pro dospělé se vším všudy: je temná, násilná, morálně složitá a eroticky nabitá.

Richard Austin Freeman (1862 - 1943), podobne ako jeho slávny spisovateľský predchodca sir Arthur Conan Doyle, bol pôvodným povolaním lekár. Svoje medicínske poznatky a metódy práce dokázal dobre zužitkovať aj vo svojej literárnej tvorbe: stal sa duchovným otcom literárnej postavy prvého vedeckého detektíva, súdneho lekára Dr. Thorndyka, predobrazu dnešných forenzných vyšetrovateľov. Ešte aj dnes dýchajú jeho pátrania čarom a milou patinou zaprášeného chemického laboratória s Bunsenovým horákom. Dr. John Thorndyke - impozantný gentleman s neodmysliteľným zeleným kufríkom, v ktorom si nosí prenosné laboratórium, je predchodcom dnešného žánru forenznej detektívky. Nadväzuje na vedeckú, "chemickú" stránku svojho predobrazu - slávneho Sherlocka Holmesa. R. Austin Freeman vo svojich detektívnych príbehoch kladie dôraz na perfektne prepracovanú technickú stránku zločinu a pri jeho vyšetrovaní na vedecké skúmanie materiálnych stôp. Kosti zavraždených obetí spievajú: Dr. Thorndyke hovorí, že každý predmet vie zaspievať svoju pieseň, ak pozorne nastražíme uši. Všetky experimenty a teórie, ktoré spisovateľ autor využil vo svojich detektívkach, ako vedec aj sám otestoval v laboratóriu. Na základe poznatkov špecializovaných vied Dr. Thorndyke s brilantnou logikou vyvodzuje svoje neotrasiteľné závery, vedúce k odhaleniu vraha. Richard Austin Freeman má významné miesto vo vývine detektívneho žánru: ako prvý ešte pred pátrom Knoxom sformuloval detektívne pravidlá fair play a ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Audiokniha: Sériový vrah omylem propuštěný na svobodu se stává noční můrou pro San Francisco – a smrtící výzvou pro detektiva Frosta Eastona. Před čtyřmi lety byl Rudy Cutter odsouzen za své činy na doživotí. Aby ho dostali za mříže, někdo záměrně falšoval spisy. Po odhalení této machinace je Rudy, vrah Frostovy sestry, znovu volný. Frost to však hodlá co nejrychleji napravit. Spojence nachází v Eden Shayové, která píše o Cutterovi knihu. A která se obává jeho pomsty. Sehrát vítěznou partii s vrahem, jenž se chystá znovu udeřit, však není jednoduché. Ne, když Frost zároveň čelí vlastním démonům. Ne, když je ta hra tak osobní. A ne, když vrahův následující tah je na hony vzdálen tomu, co Easton očekává.

''A TRULY IMPORTANT BOOK’ JOHN HUMPHRYS''FASCINATING… SHOCKING'' SPECTATORWhat is paranoia? What makes us anxious? How can this be overcome?Daniel Freeman, Professor of Psychology at Oxford, has spent thirty years at the vanguard of paranoia research and treatment. This remarkable and moving book tells the story of that journey.For decades, conventional wisdom held that paranoia was only experienced by people with severe mental health problems and little could be done to rectify its disastrous effects. Paranoia gives us a front row seat as Freeman turns the traditional view on its head.He develops life-changing treatments for clinical paranoia – often using state-of-the-art technology like virtual reality. He reveals that suspicion is rife in society, with paranoia widespread, conspiracy theories rampant and emotion all too often trumping evidence. He discovers the causes of mistrust, including the role of genes, trauma, lack of sleep, worry, low self-confidence, cannabis use and hearing voices, and delves into the murky world of Covid-19 conspiracy theories. Lighting up the narrative throughout are the rarely heard voices of people whose lives have been almost wrecked by paranoia – and then in many cases transformed by Freeman’s groundbreaking treatments.This is also a practical book.

Over the course of ten years, Freeman''s has introduced the English-speaking world to countless writers of international import and acclaim, from Olga Tokarczuk to Valeria Luiselli, while also spotlighting brilliant writers working in English, from Tommy Orange to Tess Gunty. Now, in its last issue, this unique literary project ponders all the ways of reaching a fitting conclusion.For Sayaka Murata, keeping up with the comings and goings of fashion and its changing emotional landscapes can mean being left behind, and in her poem ''Amenorrhea'' Julia Alverez experiences the end of the line as menopause takes hold. Yet sometimes an end is merely a beginning, as Barry Lopez meditates while walking through the snowy Oregonian landscapes. While Chinelo Okparanta''s story ''Fatu'' confronts the end of a relationship under the spectre of new life, other writers look towards aging as an opportunity for rebirth, such as Honorée Fanonne Jeffers, who takes on the role of being her own elder, comforting herself in the ways that her grandmother used to.

Ben Stokes is not cast in the same mould as the vast majority of English cricketers. Fiery, combative, gladiatorial - he plays the game hard and with great gusto. He is an all-rounder who bats, bowls and fields at full throttle.Some opponents feel threatened by his physical stature and aggressive brand of cricket. Stokes simply doesn''t back down, smashing the next ball for six, bowling his 90 mph "chin music", or taking a breathtakingly full-stretch catch at backward point.Whether it''s thrashing the fastest ever Test century at Lord''s or the quickest ever Test double-hundred by an Englishman (against South Africa at Cape Town, in January) or destroying the Australian batting at Trent Bridge, Stokes plays the game he loves with his heart on his sleeve and with 100% effort and commitment.

For John Freeman - literary critic, essayist, editor, poet and ''one of the preeminent book people of our time'' (Dave Eggers) - it is a rare moment when words are not enough. But in the wake of the election of 2016, words felt useless, even indulgent. Action was the only reasonable response. He took to the streets in protest and the sense of community and collective conviction felt right. But the assaults continued - on citizens'' rights and long-held compacts, on the core principles of our culture and civilisation, and on our language itself. Words seemed to be losing the meanings they once had and Freeman was compelled to return to their defence. The result is his Dictionary of the Undoing.From A to Z, ''Agitate'' to ''Zygote,'' Freeman assembled the words that felt most essential, most potent, and began to build a case for their renewed power and authority, each word building on the last. The message that emerged was not to retreat behind books, but to emphatically engage in the public sphere, to redefine what it means to be a literary citizen.With an afterword by Valeria Luiselli, Dictionary of the Undoing is a necessary, resounding cri de coeur in ...

In Running, former NCAA Division I track athlete Lindsey A. Freeman presents the feminist and queer handbook of running that she always wanted but could never find. For Freeman, running is full of joy, desire, and indulgence in the pleasure and weirdness of having a body. It allows for a space of freedom—to move and be moved. Through tender storytelling of a lifetime wearing running shoes, Freeman considers injury and recovery, what it means to run as a visibly queer person, and how the release found in running comes from a desire to touch something that cannot be accessed when still. Running invites us to run through life, legging it out the best we can with heart and style.
