Given theamount of work they had to do in a very shortperiod of time, I'm sure they must have sacrificed many, manyhours of per- sonal leisure time in order tocomplete the task. Not only have the quantity and thespeed of work been im- pressive, but so, too, has been thequality. The selection of books and the writing ofannotations has been excel- lent, making my job as chairmanrelatively easy. A fortuitous event occurredtoward the end of the Committee's work which had a significanteffect on both the scope and quality of thisbooklistnamely, the ar- rival at NCTE of anunsolicited manuscript containing hundreds of excellent annotationsprepared by Claire Rosser, a librarian from WellesleyHills, Massachusetts. Since her listing includedbooks which had not been reviewed as yet, we asked for,and received, permission to include her annotationsof those books. We are espe- cially indebted, therefore, toClaire Rosser, for over two hundred and fifty of the finestannotations included here. Additionally, credit must beaccorded a prior junior high school booklist committeewho, under the direction of Grace Maertins, prepared anumber of the annotations for books published before 1970. Acknowledgement is due also to theNCTE editorial which was given staff for all the aid and encouragement Much so willinglythroughout the work on this project. of the quality of thispublication is directly attributable to their efforts. Many individuals and groupsdeserve special mention for the assistance they gave tovarious committee mem- bers in reading and annotatingbooks. Among those providing substantive assistance werethe following: Dorothy D. Grant, Treva HunterJacobs, Helen Griffith Minteer, Lillian Kachel, Marily Simon, Lynn Myers, Christock, Conrad Case, Fran- Anita Musser, Mrs. Arlis Ruth cis Goschy, DorisSchumacher, George Strand, 5 vi Acknowledgements Goslin, Douglas Stotter, and Nancy Dillingham. Many students also provided assistance in reading and anno- tating, especially Jane Christensen's seventh and eighth grade students, Janice Bengtson's accelerated ninth- grade students, Zora Rashkis's accelerated students, and Alan Madsen's English education students. To those and all others who contributed to this project, I and the students who will use this book owe sincere thanks. Jerry L.

We believe that youprefer to select what you read all byyourselfat least part of the time. Reading is a private act, and sotoo is selecting a book. There's nothing wrong with takingpeople's advice about books; in fact, some of your bestreading tips will come from friends, parents, teachers,and librarians.Still, there will be times when the advice youreceive proves to be wrong. Sometimes youwill not like a book that others liked, and sometimes you willlike books that others didn't. Since no one else isexactly like you, it's impossible

    INFORMATION TO USERS This was produced from a copy of a document sent to us for microfilming. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the mateiial submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or notations which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or “target” for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is “Missing Page(s)”. If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting through an image and duplicating adjacent pages to assure you of complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a round black mark it is an indication that the film inspector noticed either blurred copy because of movement during exposure, or duplicate copy. Unless we meant to delete copyrighted materials that should not have been filmed, you will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., is part of the material being photo­ graphed the photographer has followed a definite method in “sectioning” the material. It is customary to begin filming at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. If necessary, sectioning is continued again—beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. For any illustrations that cannot be reproduced satisfactorily by xerography, photographic prints can be purchased at additional cost and tipped into your xerographic copy.

  • The Tarzan Series of Edgar Rice Burroughs
    I The Tarzan Series of Edgar Rice Burroughs: Lost Races and Racism in American Popular Culture James R. Nesteby Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree in Doctor of Philosophy August 1978 Approved: © 1978 JAMES RONALD NESTEBY ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ¡ ¡ in Abstract The Tarzan series of Edgar Rice Burroughs (1875-1950), beginning with the All-Story serialization in 1912 of Tarzan of the Apes (1914 book), reveals deepseated racism in the popular imagination of early twentieth-century American culture. The fictional fantasies of lost races like that ruled by La of Opar (or Atlantis) are interwoven with the realities of racism, particularly toward Afro-Americans and black Africans. In analyzing popular culture, Stith Thompson's Motif-Index of Folk-Literature (1932) and John G. Cawelti's Adventure, Mystery, and Romance (1976) are utilized for their indexing and formula concepts. The groundwork for examining explanations of American culture which occur in Burroughs' science fantasies about Tarzan is provided by Ray R. Browne, publisher of The Journal of Popular Culture and The Journal of American Culture, and by Gene Wise, author of American Historical Explanations (1973). The lost race tradition and its relationship to racism in American popular fiction is explored through the inner earth motif popularized by John Cleves Symmes' Symzonla: A Voyage of Discovery (1820) and Edgar Allan Poe's The narrative of A. Gordon Pym (1838); Burroughs frequently uses the motif in his perennially popular romances of adventure which have made Tarzan of the Apes (Lord Greystoke) an ubiquitous feature of American culture.

    The IUCN Bulletin Number 1 2002 World Conservation Mountain high CONTENTS Mountains on the agenda When the United Nations declared 2002 International Year of Mountains, its aim was to celebrate the biological and cultural diversity of our planet’s mountain regions and the human cultures they nurture, and to draw the world’s attention to the importance of these fragile and vulnerable ecosystems on which so many human lives and livelihoods depend. The international community is responding with a multitude of events and celebrations, in the hope of putting mountains firmly on the world agenda.

  • Supplément Spécial N° 10 / Juillet 2014
    /10 Supplément spécial n° 10 / Juillet 2014 La qualité, ou plutôt l’ineptie de la plupart des films français qui se sont succédé depuis le début de l’année serait-elle proportionnelle à la débâcle critique qui ne cesse de prendre de l’ampleur ? Constat un tantinet exagéré mais une certaine tendance au nivellement par le très très bas s’opère pourtant. Ce n’est pas nouveau que la parole critique concernant le cinéma soit si peu affutée sur le service public, notre consœur L’ouvreuse s’était essayée en 2009 à une immersion intensive d’une semaine dans l’enfer du PAF côté émissions de ciné. Depuis, pas grand chose n’a changé, certaines émissions ont disparu mais globalement une véritable réflexion critique se fait toujours aussi rare. Bien sûr, le net propose une alternative réjouissante car parmi les nombreux sites et blogs se contentant de régurgiter ce que les attachés de presse leur adressent, sont apparus des espaces d’expression tenus par des passionnés livrant leurs réflexions avec une certaine verve et acuité, mais généralement ces sites ne sont pas les mieux référencés ou les plus visités. La quasi absence de développement critique accessible au plus grand nombre est en soi l’illustration de l’échec du service public à formaliser des interstices où pourraient s’épanouir débat et/ou questionnements sur des œuvres présentes ou passées. Si possible quelque chose de plus consistant que la navrante émission « Le Cercle » présentée par Beigbeider où Philippe Rouyer a bien du mal à élever le niveau à lui tout seul..

It is meant to disseminate what we have deemed important information throughout our studies. This information may be used as a tool for all people, women in particular, who wish to dismantle the oppressions they face externally, and within their own lives. We are two men and one woman attempting to grasp at how we can deconstruct the patriarchal foundations upon which we perceive an unjust society has been built. We hope that at least some component of this work will be found useful to a variety of readers. This Zine is meant to be an introduction into anarcha-feminism, its origins, applications, and potentials. Buen provecho! We acknowledge that anarcha-feminism has historically been a western theory; thus, unfortunately, much of this ziners content reflects this limitation. However, we have included some information and analysis on worldwide anarcha-feminists as well as global women's struggles which don't necessarily identify as anarchist.

  • Finding Aid Prepared by David Kennaly Washington, D.C
    THE LIBRARY OF CONGRESS RARE BOOK AND SPECIAL COLLECTIONS DIVISION THE RADICAL PAMPHLET COLLECTION Finding aid prepared by David Kennaly Washington, D.C. - Library of Congress - 1995 LIBRARY OF CONGRESS RARE BOOK ANtI SPECIAL COLLECTIONS DIVISIONS RADICAL PAMPHLET COLLECTIONS The Radical Pamphlet Collection was acquired by the Library of Congress through purchase and exchange between 1977—81. Linear feet of shelf space occupied: 25 Number of items: Approx: 3465 Scope and Contents Note The Radical Pamphlet Collection spans the years 1870-1980 but is especially rich in the 1930-49 period. The collection includes pamphlets, newspapers, periodicals, broadsides, posters, cartoons, sheet music, and prints relating primarily to American communism, socialism, and anarchism. The largest part deals with the operations of the Communist Party, USA (CPUSA), its members, and various “front” organizations. Pamphlets chronicle the early development of the Party; the factional disputes of the 1920s between the Fosterites and the Lovestoneites; the Stalinization of the Party; the Popular Front; the united front against fascism; and the government investigation of the Communist Party in the post-World War Two period. Many of the pamphlets relate to the unsuccessful presidential campaigns of CP leaders Earl Browder and William Z. Foster. Earl Browder, party leader be—tween 1929—46, ran for President in 1936, 1940 and 1944; William Z. Foster, party leader between 1923—29, ran for President in 1928 and 1932. Pamphlets written by Browder and Foster in the l930s exemplify the Party’s desire to recruit the unemployed during the Great Depression by emphasizing social welfare programs and an isolationist foreign policy.
