Compiled by the U.S. Department of State, with the full cooperation of the foreign missions in Washington, it is offered as a convenience to organizations and persons who must deal with consular representatives of foreign governments. It has been designed with particular attention to the requirements of government agencies, state tax officials, international trade organizations, chambers of commerce, and judicial authorities who have a continuing need for handy access to this type of information. Trade with other regions of the world has become an increasingly vital element in the economy of the United States. The machinery of this essential commerce is complicated by numerous restrictions, license requirements, quotas, and other measures adopted by the individual countries. Since the regulations affecting both trade and travel are the particular province of the consular service of the nations involved, reliable information as to entrance requirements, consignment of goods, details of transshipment, and, in many instances, suggestions as to consumer needs and preferences may be obtained at the foreign consular offices throughout the United States.

    STUDIES IN AMERICAN LITERATURE Volume XXX SETTING IN THE AMERICAN SHORT STORY OF LOCAL COLOR i86j-igoo by ROBERT D. RHODE Texas A & I University 1975 MOUTON THE HAGUE . PARIS © Copyright 1975 in The Netherlands Mouton & Co. N.V., Publishers, The Hague No part of this book may be translated or reproduced in any form by print, photoprint, microfilm, or any other means, without written permission from the publishers ISBN 90 279 3281 6 Printed in The Netherlands by Mouton & Co., The Hague TO MY WIFE Dorothy Rhode Sine qua non PREFACE Literary historians of the American local color movement (1865- 1900), both contemporary and more recent, have offered various explanations for the rise of this peculiar phenomenon and various judgments regarding its literary significance. Although the move- ment was first identified nearly a century ago, there has not been, until recently, much sifting and analyzing of its literary content by serious scholars, with the single exception of Fred Lewis Pattee, whose American Literature Since 1870 appeared in 1916. Among the authors commonly associated with the movement, one stands apart from the rest - Mark Twain, whose clear genius seemed destined to overflow the local color mold and to establish him as a center of critical acclaim for work done without, as well as within, the local color tradition. By 1900, when the American reading public had become bored with most of the lush output of local magazine fiction, the term "local color" had acquired a pejorative meaning. Thus it is not surprising that much of the literature to which the term applied remained, at least for the first several decades of the Twentieth Century, well beneath the level of scholarly attention.

Analysis of such ‘‘nation-work’’ contributes to the cognitive turn in ethnicity and nationalism research by showing how ethnonational categorization operates. Examining variation in this domain shows that though nationalism may project an image of a homogeneous ‘‘we’’, internal heterogeneity is crucial for refining the experience and performance of membership in the nation. Keywords: Nationalism; Ethnicity; Culture; Categorization; Japan. T HE CENTRALITY OF culture in the nation-building projects of nationalist movements has long served as a focal point of analytic attention. Recently this strand of research has been complemented by a growing interest in what might be termed ‘‘nation-maintenance’’, which continues to re-create nationhood in a quieter and more routine fashion after the nation-state is firmly established.

  • CHAPTER XV ONE HUNDRED MILLION ORANGES IT Had Been
    CHAPTER XV ONE HUNDRED MILLION ORANGES I IT had been arranged for me to be collected by my Orlando friends at the little beach village of Titusville, one hundred and fifty miles north of Palm Beach. In the late afternoon I alighted on a long desolate platform to find a motor-car from Orlando awaiting me. All around, above the planta- tions of pines and palms, the glow of sunset had begun to crimson the sky. I recalled the difference from my previous arrival at Titusville, six years ago. Then I had descended from my sleeping compartment, having travelled overnight from Cuba and Key West. I alighted in a sleeping village. The crimson dawn was break- ing over the horizon, the stars were still bright. I crossed the lawn of a house and stood by a vast expanse of water, the Indian River, which divided the mainland from a distant reef on which I could hear, in the quiet of dawn, the mur- mur of the sea. That soft dawn, broken by the beating of an early paddle boat, and the flight of herons, has never faded from my memory. The swift growth of light, the brilliant crimson and green of the clouds, the dark palms suddenly catching the fire of the sun, the opalescent water shining brighter as the stars faded, and then the rushing of the sun over the world's rim, made on me a lasting impres- sion. 254 ONE HUNDRED MILLION ORANGES 255 I thought of that early-morning arrival as we now motored across the flat marshland in the dying light.

    2020 ISSUE 09 Bursa Uludag University School of Foreign Languages Blackboard STUDENT WRITERS OF TODAY; REAL WRITERS OF TOMORROW READ AND LET YOURSELF DISCOVER MANY NEW PERSPECTIVES Atatürk's Address to the Turkish Youth Turkish Youth! Your first duty is forever to preserve and to defend the Turkish Independence and the Turkish Republic. This is the very foundation of your existence and your future. This foundation is your most precious treasure. In the future, too, there may be malevolent people at home and abroad who will wish to deprive you of this treasure. If some day you are compelled to defend your independence and your republic, you must not tarry to weigh the possibilities and circumstances of the situation before taking up your duty. These possibilities and circumstances may turn out to be extremely unfavourable. The enemies conspiring against your independence and your republic, may have behind them a victory unprecedented in the annals of the world. It may be that, by violence and ruse, all the fortresses of your beloved fatherland may be captured, all its shipyards occupied, all its armies dispersed and every part of the country invaded. And sadder and graver than all these circumstances, those who hold power within the country may be in error, misguided and may even be traitors. Furthermore, they may identify their personal interests with the political designs of the invaders. The country may be impoverished, ruined and exhausted. Youth of Turkey's future, Even in such circumstances it is your duty to save the Turkish Independence and Republic. You will find the strength you need in your noble blood.

  • Ovate Course Sampler Remember That Lovely Sample File You Looked at Before Signing up for Our Bardic Course? Well, This Is Another One, Only for the Ovate Course
    BDO Ovate Course Sampler Remember that lovely sample file you looked at before signing up for our bardic course? Well, this is another one, only for the ovate course. How cool is that? And yes, before you ask, I'm afraid it is necessary to take our bardic course before signing up for the ovate, since each course builds on the preceding one and refers back to it. The following selections are chosen to give a flavour of the course's style, representing a range of voices and types of illustration, intended to help you decide whether the course is for you before signing up. They are, however, just a few brief extracts from a course that runs to 24 booklets (plus a card set), about 1200 pages and over 400,000 words. This really is just a small taster. One advantage of the courses being in pdf format is that they include interactive contents pages like the one below. Click on an item and you'll be taken to that item in the text. Click on the heading there and it'll bring you back to the Contents page. Neat, huh? Contents: on Being bORN … 2 The Lunar Cycle … 3 The Ogham Letters … 5 The Place of Healing … 6 A Prayer for Long Life & A Good Old Age … 7 The Twelve Doorways of the Soul … 8 The Twelve Doorways … 9 A Druid Herbal … 10 Spring Equinox Ceremony … 11 The Dreams of trees … 13 Insular Traditions … 17 1 The course follows the Wheel of the Year and the cycles of life, hence we open our selections with the following edited extract from booklet 1, In The Beginning: on Being bORN “When I was born, I had no head and my eye was single and my body
