Transatlantic Liners

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Layton, J. Kent, PUBLISHER: Shire Publications, Prior to air travel there was only one way to cross the Atlantic: by ship. By the late nineteenth century, steam ships dominated the transatlantic passenger trade, growing exponentially in size as maritime technology improved and as more immigrants poured from Europe into the New World. As the liners got bigger, the scope for luxury increased, so that a substantial part of ships such as Titanic would be given over to sumptuous dining saloons, lounges, smoking rooms and even gymnasia for the most affluent passengers. Meanwhile, the bulk of passengers, the poor migrants with one-way tickets to America, were efficiently arranged in small cabins with bunks in the bows and stern of the ship. This book is an introduction to the age of the superliner, from to the modern day, exploring changes in the liner's design and role over a century that saw competition between shipping lines and between nations. The author describes the history and design of such great ships as Lusitania, Olympic, Imperator, Normandie, both queen Elizabeths, both queen Marys and, of course, the legendary Titanic. He tells the story of the heyday of the great liners before immigration to America was curtailed, the many races for the Blue Riband speed record, the experiences of rich and poor passengers, the role of the liners as troopships and hospital ships during the world wars, and the decline in the Atlantic trade after the s, since when most passengers have travelled by air.

The European Union and the Council of Europe

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Kolb, Marina, PUBLISHER: Palgrave Macmillan, With the increasing prominence of fundamental rights within the EU it increasingly interferes in the core competence of the Council of Europe. This book traces the EU and the Council of Europe relationship in the field of human rights - marked by mutual interferences and overlap - and explores which factors trigger cooperation or conflict between the two organizations. Investigating the cases of data protection, the fight against terrorism, challenging Roma discrimination, the Memorandum of Understanding and the Fundamental Rights Agency through the lens of an implementation literature and management studies-perspective, this book contends that the biggest threat to interorganizational cooperation is organizational self-interest, despite a shared policy outlook. The book furthers the agenda set by the literature in this field by providing a new theoretical framework and an in-depth empirical study of two main actors in the field of human rights protection in Europe from a political science perspective.

Between Love and Honor

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Lapierre, Alexandra / Lizop, Jane, PUBLISHER: Amazon Publishing, Between Love and Honor is a historical love story based on the facts of Czar Nicholas I of Russia's 25-year struggle to contain the Muslims of the Caucasus Mountains. The book follows Jamal Eddin, son of the Jihadist warrior Imam Shamil, as he's taken hostage by the Czar. The boy so impressed the Czar that he was raised alongside the Czar's sons. He was encouraged to practice his religion ? part of a plot by the Czar to place the boy as ruler in his father's stead, bringing the interests of Russia to power ? and he managed to incorporate Islam into courtly life among the glamorous Imperial set. All this changed, however, when he fell in love; the girl was from one of the most celebrated intellectual families in the Empire, and Jamal Eddin could have her hand only if he agreed to convert to Christianity. Deeply in love, he would willingly commit this act of apostasy. Despite the plans the Czar had for his prot?g?, Nicholas also agreed to the match; indeed, he promised to stand as godfather at Jamal Eddin's baptism and best man at his wedding. Upon this news, 17 years after his kidnapping, Jamal's father makes his move, but leaves the choice to his son: will he return to his village or remain with his love?

The Sun Unwound: Poems from Occupied America

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Brotherston, Gordon / Dorn, Edward, PUBLISHER: North Atlantic Books, The result of a 20-year collaboration between poet Edward Dorn and scholar Gordon Brotherston, "The Sun Unwound" gathers together the disparate voices of oppressed Americans through the centuries: the hymns, songs, and prayers of Mesoamericans and other native peoples; the verse of eight Latin American guerrillas of the 's; and works by three of Latin America's most important avant-garde poets of the twentieth century. The Native Americans saw their cultures obliterated, most of the guerrillas died in their struggles, and the modernists have faced persecution, prison, and torture for their left-wing convictions. Previously untranslated or unavailable to most North Americans, their poems offer a striking counterpoint to the colonialist, capitalist, Anglo-Saxon ethos.

Access to Research Data in the 21st Century: An Ongoing

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Tolbert, La Verne / Science Technology and Law Panel / National Research Council, PUBLISHER: National Academies Press, In the years since the Shelby Amendment, scientists, industry, and policy makers have struggled over how the public's new right of access should be applied to scientific data. There is loose agreement that research data should be accessible, but wide disagreement over the "depth" to which the public has such a right. The National Academies' Science, Technology, and Law Program held a workshop to explore the mounting tensions in the federal regulatory process between the need to provide access to research data and the need to protect the integrity of the research process. The workshop provided a picture of the debate arising from passage of the Shelby Amendment and the resulting OMB revisions of Circular A-110. This report is a summary of the workshop.

Wave Without a Shore

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Cherryh, C. J., PUBLISHER: G. K. Hall & Company, Freedom was an isolated planet, off the spaceways track and rarely visited by commercial spacers. It wasn't that Freedom was inhospitable as planets go. The problem was that outsiders -- tourists and traders -- claimed the streets were crowded with mysterious characters in blue robes, and with members of an alien species. Native-born humans, however, said that was not the case. There were no such blue-robes and no aliens. Such was the viewpoint of both Herrin the artist and Waden the autocrat -- until a crisis of planetary identity forced a life-and-death confrontation between the question of reality and the reality of the question...

Benin

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Plankensteiner, Barbara, PUBLISHER: 5 Continents, The Benin kingdom of the Edo people flourished in West Africa between the 15th and 19th centuries. The latest volume in the highly regarded "Visions of Africa "series explores the remarkable court art of this powerful empire. Their unique bronzes and stunning ivory and wood carvings enjoyed a place in the royal palace grounds of Benin City until , when the empire succumbed to British rule and the works were scattered around the globe. These works were essential elements in court rituals and representation, and are reassembled here for the first time. In this beautifully illustrated study of a fascinating chapter in African art history, a leading scholar introduces the complex history, iconography, and function of Benin royal art and discusses various approaches to its interpretation and stylistic development.

The Wolves at Evelyn: Journeys Through a Dark Century

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Rhenisch, Harold, PUBLISHER: Brindle & Glass, At once a memoir, a work of philosophy, a story of European immigration to Canada's dark places of the earth, and an exploration of the roots and effects of colonialism, "The Wolves At Evelyn: Journeys Through a Dark Century" is a stylistic and rhetorical tour de force from one of Canada's master prose stylists.Dissident communists fleeing s Germany, Harold Rhenisch's grandparents imagined that British Columbia's Interior was the end of the earth-a new world where they could fulfil their dreams of the land, freed from tyrrany and from history itself. A generation later, in the wake of World War II, his father arrived, carrying many of the same ideas with him. What they found instead was a colonial culture as highly developed as Doris Lessing's Rhodesia.Rhenisch grew up at the nexus of these cultures: a Germany where Nazism simultaneously did and did not happen, a Canada in the process of shedding British colonialism for American, and a land-the Interior-that had no point of contact with any of them.With remarkable range and vision, Rhenisch turns in a bravura performance, sifting through the ashes of personal experience, family anecdotes, literature, art, history, and the land itself for clues to a great untold story, Rhenisch assembles a collage of images and ideas that becomes a whole much greater than the sum of its parts. The hidden history of a forgotten outpost of the Empire is laid open, shattering dearly held myths and exposing buried skeletons.How was the sunny, carefree Okanagan Valley fruit culture built on the back of King Leopold's Congolese slave trade? How does Margaret Atwood's garrison theory of literature reflect on Rhenisch family's hidden Nazi past? How did the Hudson's Bay Company Blanket act as both a cherished kitsch object for generations of Canadians and a tool of genocide? Alternating between light and darkness, great humour and sharp indignation, this is a disturbing, thought-provoking and important work from a masterful writer and cultural analyst.
