Poetics of Forgiveness
Cultural Responses to Loss and Wrongdoing
AvJ. Scott
E-bok
PDF, Engelska, 2010

Despite recent interest in forgiveness and reconciliation, relatively little research has been conducted on forgiveness in literary studies. A Poetics of Forgiveness explores the profound links between creativity and forgiveness, and argues that creative production and interpretation can play a vital role in practices of forgiveness. Developing a model of "poetic forgiveness" through the work of Julia Kristeva, Jacques Derrida, and Kelly Oliver, A Poetics of Forgiveness asks how forgiveness is expressed in literature and other art forms, and what creative works can bring to secular debates on forgiveness and conflict resolution. Jill Scott explores these questions in a wide variety of historical and cultural contexts, from Homer s Iliad to 9/11 novels, from postwar Germany to post-Apartheid South Africa, in canonical texts and in diverse media, including film, photography, and testimony.

Skickas inom 10-15 vardagar
This collection of essays looks at missions, their complicity in European colonialism, and their postcolonial aftermath. It examines the spread of Christianity, ranging over the anthropological, textual, historical, and geographical dimensions of mission enterprises, with topics as diverse as the influence of mission printing and record-keeping on traditional life in Africa to the role of missions in changing styles of dress in India. Also, uniquely, the collection includes essays analyzing the role of proselytizing in Islam, Hinduism, and Buddhism, as well as American liberal democratic capitalism. The volume is interdisciplinary, focusing on textual and material aspects of missions. Like Griffiths' earlier ground-breaking books in postcolonial studies, and Scott's well-known interdisciplinary work on missions and postcolonial literatures, this collection will be fascinating to scholars in postcolonial/cultural and mission studies and be useful as a teaching tool as well. Mixed Messages was listed among the 15 best books for 2005 in the Jan 2006 issue of The International Bulletin of Mission Studies .

Bending the Arc of Innovation: Public Support of R&D in Small, Entrepreneurial Firms

E-bok

Läs direkt efter köp
In this exciting work, Link and Scott summarize more than a decade of their research on public support of R&D in small, entrepreneurial firms, concluding public R&D investments, primarily funded by the U.S. Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) program, are indeed bending the arc of innovation. Firms that receive SBIR project funding would not undertake the projects in the absence of SBIR''s support. SBIR support has had a positive impact on the employment trajectory of firms and their ability to commercialize innovations.Bending the Arc of Innovation offers a theoretical model of the effects of the SBIR program. Link and Scott demonstrate that with SBIR support of R&D often comes contractual commercial agreements with other firms to sell the rights to the technology generated by the public support. These agreements between another firm and a small firm with a SBIR-award enable an effective transfer of knowledge created with the small firm''s publicly-supported research. Both parties to the agreement have better access to the knowledge resources of the other. Link and Scott show how these agreements allow the dedication of resources and organizational efforts necessary for the commercially successful access to and use of external knowledge.

Being a successful business leader isn't about giving inspirational speeches, making the decisions, and saving the day. It's also not about success, being wealthy, receiving recognition, or calling the shots. Leadership is about change for the purpose of innovation, and change is about people. Your relationship with your team is the most important element. To drive growth and sustainable change within an organization, you must create a culture of collaborators, challengers, and decision makers and actively empower them to drive results. It's Never Just Business offers valuable insights and actionable techniques for:Transforming a group of employees into a committed, high-functioning teamBuilding an agile, change-ready culture that's constantly evolvingUnderstanding how authority and leadership differ and that authority undermines innovationSuccessful leadership is born from purpose, empathy, vulnerability, connection, and failure. Start leading by truly connecting and collaborating. Because it's never just business; it's always about people.

Using an organized system of teams, armed with water guns, water balloons, and even golf carts, the Suns spend their summers protecting their beloved park from a neighboring band of bullies. Tommy soon learns about teamwork, courage, and sacrifice as he is introduced to an elite group of kids who manage to get Tommy into one big wet mess.
Written by a veteran, the story presents a tamed look at the heroics and courage of battle, while providing the reader with a fun account that will inspire their own adventures.

Chelsea and Westminster Hospital and its charity CW+ have been pioneers in the Arts and Health field for over 25 years. By bringing music, performance and the visual arts into the hospital, they have created an extraordinary environment and transformed the experience of countless patients, visitors and members of staff . In this collection of essays, we delve into the story of the arts at Chelsea and Westminster Hospital, from the installation of daring sculpture before the hospital opened its doors, to the exciting future of the programme. The Healing Arts discusses the impact of the arts on patients’ recovery, in some cases shortening their stay or reducing their need for pain medication. From drawing to music to creative digital technology, this volume looks at how integrating the arts into the day-to-day life of the hospital has changed its patients’ experience of care.
