Macho Ethics - Jason Cortes - Bog - Bucknell University Press - Plusbog.dk

Macho Ethics - Jason Cortes - Bog - Bucknell University Press - Plusbog.dk

Masculinity is not a monolithic phenomenon, but a historically discontinuous one—a fabrication as it were, of given cultural circumstances. Because of its opacity and instability, masculinity, like more recognizable systems of oppression, resists discernibility. In Macho Ethics: Masculinity and Self-Representation in Latino-Caribbean Narrative, Jason Cortés seeks to reveal the inner workings of masculinity in the narrative prose of four major Caribbean authors: the Cuban Severo Sarduy; the Dominican American Junot Díaz; and the Puerto Ricans Luis Rafael Sánchez and Edgardo Rodríguez Juliá. By exploring the relationship between ethics and authority, the legacies of colonial violence, the figure of the dictator, the macho, and the dandy, the logic of the Archive, the presence of Oscar Wilde, and notions of trauma and mourning, Macho Ethics fills a gap surrounding issues of power and masculinity within the Caribbean context, and draws attention to what frequently remains invisible and unspoken.

Chest Pain - - Bog - Nova Science Publishers Inc - Plusbog.dk

Chest Pain - - Bog - Nova Science Publishers Inc - Plusbog.dk

Chest pain may be a symptom of a number of serious conditions and is generally considered a medical emergency. Even though it may be determined that the pain is non-cardiac in origin, this is often a diagnosis of exclusion made after ruling out more serious causes of the pain. This book gathers and presents topical data on the causes, diagnosis and treatment of chest pain including integrated studies of western and traditional Chinese medicine on Cardiac Syndrome X with chest pain, angina and chest pain, a look at the available prediction instruments that can be used for the classification of acute coronary syndrome (ACS), and ambient nitrogen dioxide and female emergency room visits for chest pain.

The Praetorian Guard - Sandra Bingham - Bog - Bloomsbury Publishing PLC - Plusbog.dk

The Praetorian Guard - Sandra Bingham - Bog - Bloomsbury Publishing PLC - Plusbog.dk

Conceived as a personal army for the emperor, the elite Praetorian Guard soon took over a wide range of powers in Rome, and thus from the very beginning made a much greater impact on the city''s life than just as an imperial bodyguard. The Praetorians were in fact inseparable from the whole machinery of state, in some cases even making or breaking individual emperors. Sandra Bingham here offers a timely history of the Guard from its foundation by Augustus in 27 BCE to its disbandment by Constantine in CE 312. Topics covered include arms and insignia; the size, recruitment and command structure of the Guard; duration of service; the duties of individual soldiers and officers; and their families, daily lives and religion.

The Home Guard - S. P. Mackenzie - Bog - Oxford University Press - Plusbog.dk

The Home Guard - S. P. Mackenzie - Bog - Oxford University Press - Plusbog.dk

Today we laugh at `Dad''s Army'', but in 1940 the threat of a German invasion of Britain was a very real one. S. P. MacKenzie''s detailed and readable history of the Home Guard offers a new perspective on the men who took up the challenge. Despite its popular image of old men and teenagers playing soldiers, the Home Guard, often as large as the wartime army, became an astonishingly strong political force in its own right. Quite literally the people in arms it proved able to exert a good deal of influence on policy.The threat of invasion receded and the Home Guard was never called upon to fulfil its military role, though there was a brief attempt to resurrect it in the 1950s. Since then it has been largely neglected by military historians and there have been few serious examinations of the part it played in the Home Front. This book, both entertaining and scholarly, fills that gap.
