The Arrow-Maker: A Drama in Three Acts
ISBN: 9781515105961 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 114 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The greatest difficulty to be met in the writing of an Indian play is the extensive misinformation about Indians. Any real aboriginal of my acquaintance resembles his prototype in the public mind about as much as he does the high-nosed, wooden sign of a tobacco store, the fact being that, among the fifty-eight linguistic groups of American aboriginals, customs, traits, and beliefs differ as greatly as among Slavs and Sicilians. Their very speech appears not to be derived from any common stock. All that they really have of likeness is an average condition of primitiveness: they have traveled...

The Land of Little Rain
ISBN: 9781515106586 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 62 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. I confess to a great liking for the Indian fashion of name-giving: every man known by that phrase which best expresses him to whoso names him. Thus he may be Mighty-Hunter, or Man-Afraid-of-a-Bear, according as he is called by friend or enemy, and Scar-Face to those who knew him by the eye's grasp only. No other fashion, I think, sets so well with the various natures that inhabit in us, and if you agree with me you will understand why so few names are written here as they appear in the geography. For if I love a lake known by the name of the man who discovered it, which endears itself by...

The Basket Woman: A Book of Indian Tales
ISBN: 9780874173369 / Angielski / Miękka / 1999 / 136 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Austin's charming and evocative stories dramatize the legacy of conquest upon a land and its native peoples. Although these stories, out of print for almost a century, were first intended as delightful and instructive reading for children, on another level they are an intense examination of the dramatic implications of a legacy of conquest upon the land and its native peoples. In Austin s tales, cocky young glaciers, contemplative pine trees, resourceful ancient Paiutes, and rabbits too clever for their own good all become companions and teachers to Alan, the young son of homesteaders in...

Stories from the Country of Lost Borders
ISBN: 9780813512181 / Angielski / Miękka / 1987 / 312 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Mary Austin's The Land of Little Rain (1903) and Lost Borders (1909), both set in the California desert, make intimate connections between animals, people, and the land they inhabit. For Austin, the two indispensable conditions of her fiction were that the region must enter the story "as another character, as the instigator of plot," and that the story must reflect "the essential qualities of the land."
In The Land of Little Rain, Austin's attention to natural detail allows her to write prose that is geologically, biologically, and botanically accurate at the...

Supporting Legal Capacity in Socio-Legal Context
ISBN: 9781509959075 / Angielski / Miękka / 2023 / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This collection brings together leading international socio-legal and medico-legal scholars to explore the dilemma of how to support legal capacity in theory and practice. Traditionally, decisions for persons found to lack capacity are made by others, generally without reference to the person, and this applies especially to those with cognitive and psycho-social disabilities. This book examines the difficulties in establishing effective and deliverable supported decision-making, concluding that approaches to capacity need to be informed by a grounded understanding of how it operates in...

The Land of Little Rain
ISBN: 9780812968521 / Angielski / Miękka / 2003 / 160 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. -Between the high Sierras south from Yosemite--east and south over a very great assemblage of broken ranges beyond Death Valley, and on illimitably into the Mojave Desert- is the territory that Mary Austin calls the Land of Little Rain. In this classic collection of meditations on the wonders of this region, Austin generously shares -such news of the land, of its trails and what is astir in them, as one lover of it can give to another.- Her vivid writings capture the landscape--from burnt hills to sun-baked mesas--as well as the rich variety of plant and animal life, and the few human beings...
