The Self and Others: Positioning Individuals and Groups in

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Harre, Rom / Moghaddam, Fathali M. / Harr?, Rom, PUBLISHER: Praeger, This volume focuses on relations between the self and other individuals, the self and groups, and the self and context.

City of a Hundred Fires

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Blanco, Richard, PUBLISHER: University of Pittsburgh Press, City of a Hundred Fires presents us with a journey through the cultural coming of age experiences of the hyphenated Cuban-American. This distract group, known as the Generation (as coined by Bill Teck), are the bilingual children of Cuban exiles nourished by two cultural currents -- the fragmented traditions and transferred nostalgia of their parents' Caribbean homeland and the very real and present America where they grew up and live. There is a Caribbean lushness and rhythm in these poems with characters like "Sarita in her porous eggshell skin....the soft balls of her feet and strawberry toenails seeping from under the edges of sheets swirled around her contours like icing". But there is also a sense of wistfulness and proud self-invention addressed formally through languages and style, with individual poems effortlessly combining Spanish and English into an understandable text. The journey ends in this self-invention, a mosaic assembled from fragments of culture, history, and language, fractured but whole.

The Mentored Life: From Individualism to Personhood

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Houston, James M. / Houston, J. M., PUBLISHER: NavPress Publishing Group, In our contemporary society, it is widely accepted in the search for self to seek the advice of a mentor. From upper management consultants to the well-meaning friend, mentors are readily available. But as Houston writes, "We can choose the pursuit of self-knowledge for enhancing one's professional ambitions, or we can go beyond ourselves in ever-living faith as disciples of the Word." This book is not a guide to mentoring. Rather, Houston thoroughly dismantles and exposes cracks in the philosophies used throughout the history of mentoring. Individualism, stoicism, even psychotherapy all fall short of God's ultimate plan. The Mentored Life reveals that it isn't about making the individual better. Instead, through Christian discipleship, individuals must humbly seek Christ, who alone can lead us to whole personhood.

Using a range of authors, including Homer, Edward Gibbon, Benjamin Franklin, Somerset Maugham, Franz Kafka, and Eugene Delacroix, Roger J. Porter offers a broad-based examination of the autobiography and the varied techniques used by its practitioners over time. In a style that is both graceful and erudite, Porter focuses on the diverse motivations and rhetorical functions that the act of self-writing serves for particular writers.

Then, stepping out of his critical role, Porter ends each chapter with an autobiographical discussion of his professional and personal engagement with the autobiographer under discussion, creating an intriguing and absorbing literary autobiography within the critical text.
