The Accommodation Without Assimilation: Women and Medicine in Early New England
ISBN: 9780801495038 / Angielski / Miękka / 1988 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. "A new version of the old 'immigrant success' story is circulating in America. It implies that the apparent academic progress of recent arrivals to our schools is the result of simple head work, opportunity, and a good attitude. Margaret Gibson has given us a complex antidote to this myth in a carefully researched and fully documented two-year study of Sikh children in a rural California educational setting. In addition to giving the reader the necessary cultural and religious background to understand this little known ethnic group, which originated in the Punjab area of northwestern...

Second Nature: Poems
ISBN: 9780807136959 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 96 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. "Learn of the green world what can be thy place," wrote Ezra Pound. In Second Nature, her tenth collection of poems, Margaret Gibson takes Pound's stern counsel to heart. With stunning clarity, these poems move from acute observation to an empathy, participation, and intimacy that continues Gibson's search to experience the "one body" of the world in direct encounter and to translate that encounter into words. As Emerson tells us, the Spirit moves throughout Nature and through us -- our art is, therefore, second nature. Whether Gibson's poems take us to Greece and to "a writing desk no...

Memories of the Future: The Daybooks of Tina Modotti
ISBN: 9780807113097 / Angielski / Miękka / 1986 / 80 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Tina Modotti, know to a few as the beautiful Italian actress in Erich von Stroheim's silent film Greed, was also a dedicated political activist and photographer whose best work has a powerful dignity and integrity. She lived with Edward Weston in postrevolutionary Mexico in the 1920s. During the Spanish Civil war in the 1930s she was a nurse in Madrid and on various fronts. In Spain she knew Antonio Machado and Pablo Neruda, who wrote a poem about her after her death in Mexico in 1942. Margaret Gibson's Memories of the Future is based on Modotti's vivid but enigmatic life. Drawn from daybooks...

One Body
ISBN: 9780807132401 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 88 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. One Body is Margaret Gibson's most intimate collection of poems to date. Written as if to honor the injunction "Work to simplify the heart," the poems are direct, empathetic, and tender in their study of life and death. The thirteen poems of the opening sequence, as well as other poems throughout, look steadily at life and death until they are transparently "one body." "Closer to death," she writes, "I want great faith and great doubt." Whether the focus is personal or social, Gibson has written the poems in this stunning collection "because I want to see / how the body goes still / how the...

Broken Cup
ISBN: 9780807156421 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 88 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Broken Cup brings breathtaking eloquence to what Margaret Gibson describes as "traveling the Way of Alzheimer's" with her husband, poet David McKain. After his initial and tentative diagnosis, Gibson suspended her writing for two years; but then poetry returned, and the creative process became the lightning rod that grounded her and presented a path forward. The poems in Broken Cup bear witness to how Alzheimer's erodes memory and cognitive function, but they never forget to see what is present and to ask what may remain of the self.
Moving and unflinchingly honest in the acknowledgment... Broken Cup brings breathtaking eloquence to what Margaret Gibson describes as "traveling the Way of Alzheimer's" with her husband, poet David McKain. ...
