Going from classic to contemporary authors, the authors of this volume consider theorists that provided contributions that became representative of trends, schools of thought and original theoretical perspectives, and that grew into the backbone of Marxist thought: Karl Marx, Vladimir Lenin, Antonio Gramsci, Edward Palmer Thompson, Nicos Poulantzas, Erik O. Wright, Antonio Negri, and John Holloway, with references to Rosa Luxemburg, Georg Lukács, Jean-Paul Sartre, and Ralph Miliband. The authors seek to provide a basis for the knowledge of the main contributions in contemporary Marxism and to place the debate on the concept of social class at the center of current sociological reflections. In this sense, the last chapter is not a balance nor an assessment, but offers an exercise in the problematization of the concepts of struggle and class, geared towards highlighting its relevance and potential in Marxist sociology within an agenda centered in the principle of antagonism. Beyond the endeavor to recognize and revitalize the Marxist perspective, the authors offer tools for reflection that allow readers to refresh and expand their knowledge on a fundamental concept and a debate of great theoretical importance in social thought.

Designed for the classroom, this resource book contains activities and exercises to help the teaching of Charles Dickens’s A Christmas Carol. Although it was designed to be used alongside the Classical Comics graphic novels, this teaching guide uses the novel as a springboard for learning and it can be used with any version of the book. The exercises have been approached from a cross-curriculum perspective so that they cover not only literature and literacy, but also history, technology, drama, reading, speaking, writing and art. The book is divided into such categories as Charles Dickens: His Place in English, Understanding the Novel, Character, Language, and Creative Writing. Students get to design their own Christmas card, write a modern version of the story, write a book review, color pages, solve anagrams, and more while they learn. The age range is 10 to 17 (Grade 5 and up), but of course within that span exists a broad spectrum of skill levels. Therefore, this study guide includes activities for all, providing many opportunities for differentiated teaching and for the tailoring of lessons to meet individual needs. Examples of some of the activities include: Background, Character, Language, Understanding, Drama/Art. A CD is included that contains the pages in PDF format so that they can be used on any whiteboard or local intranet system.

Since its foundation in 1857, there have always been members of the Alpine Club who have carried sketch-books into the mountains, keeping a record of their endeavours and the peaks they had climbed. Descriptions of these artists form the principal part of the text of this Dictionary, together with many illustrations of their work. In 1895, the Alpine Club's move to Savile Row, with its generous accommodation, enabled exhibitions of scale and scope to be held and the beginnings of a collection to form. The subsequent move to South Audley Street, shortly before the Second World War, enabled members' exhibitions to continue, together with displays of mountain paintings from external galleries and dealers. In 1991, the move was made to the present premises at Charlotte Road. Throughout these many changes the Club's collection has grown, almost exclusively by virtue of gifts from members, families and friends. In recent years, the exhibition tradition has continued. As well as displays from permanent collection, including works by John Ruskin, ET Compton and TH Somervell, there have been individual shows by modern artists such as Julian Cooper, Jim Curran and John Dugger, and even group exhibitions of conceptual art. Members have been offered a changing and varied diet which is reflected in the pages of this book. This is the second edition which now includes an Addendum showing new material added to this collection. The first edition was published in 2007. This edition is compiled and written by Peter Mallalieu, Keeper of Pictures at the Alpine Club. The book shows over 150 mainly full page, full colour drawings and paintings, with accompanying descriptions and background to the artist.
