Waldorf Publications Teaching Art History: Engaging the Adolescent in Art Appreciation, Cultural History and the Evolution of Consciousness
This book offers a comprehensive study of an art history teaching block in an upper class in a Waldorf school, covering a diverse range of work through the ages of history. Lavishly illustrated throughout, Teaching Art History guides readers through human history via a study of art and culture. Journey from the beginnings of art in palaeolithic times to the art of ancient Egypt and the Greco-Roman era, and to European art from the Renaissance onwards. Van James is both an experienced teacher and accomplished artist, making his presentation of the subject clear and full of life. While this text is aimed at teachers of pupils in Class 9 (14-15 years old), it also features practical ideas for projects for other classes too. Featuring examples of student artwork as motivation for what pupils can produce when they are inspired to record history through art, this book also describes the positive impact that immersion in art and culture can have on teenagers. A fascinating and engaging resource for teachers and anyone curious to learn about the study of art through the ages.

Rudolf Steiner Press Spirit and Art: Pictures of the Transformation of Consciousness
"As an art student in the late sixties, I recall how painfully dry and intellectual my art history classes were. I thought to myself, or rather felt to myself, 'There must be something more'" (Van James). Artist Van James offers that something more. This is a richly readable and lavishly illustrated text that reveals how, at every stage, human consciousness has evolved through the medium of art. It makes the case for a hidden stream that has put forth art works and art movements throughout history, in an ongoing visible revelation of invisible spiritual currents. Art, originally a part of the secret Mystery cults of the ancient world, has become an expression of the individual creative intuition. At every stage, Albert Einstein's comment applies: "The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious. It is the source of all true art and science."

Hachette Books Fat, Crazy, and Tired: Tales from the Trenches of Transformation
A formerly chubby kid who self-identified for much of his life as "the fat friend," media personality and podcast host Van Lathan Jr. has struggled with physical and mental health his entire life. He was used to being his besties' wing man on the dating scene, the slack bench-dweller at the gym, and his mother's biggest fan at every meal, especially whenever she served up her infamous mac and cheese with five different kinds of cheese. At 365 lbs, Van hated being fat, he found it harder than being Black! After dedicating years to improving his physical and mental health, with many ups and downs, in 2019 Van found himself in a shared slump with other Americans when the Covid-19 pandemic hit and the George Floyd video was released-suddenly he was surrounded by carbs galore, binge-ing everything, feeling non-stop exhaustion, and crippling waves of anxiety and depression.Fat, Crazy, and Tired isn't just about Van's ultimately unsuccessful journey to an Instagram-able body and zen; it's about the unspoken personal battlefield of attaining and maintaining what American's deem as good health. "Detox" cleanses? Weight loss pills? Celery juice? No, thank you. Van argues against aiming for 100% good health, and advocates for success to be considered 50%. He explores the real reasons behind our unending physical and mental health battles, how being "the Black guy" at work on TMZ overshadowed his identity and demonstrates how we can better understand our bodies by better understanding ourselves. With patience, compassion, and double doses of humor Fat, Crazy, and Tired provides a close look at how to really take control of your life: one step at a time.

MODEL CENTRUM South African Air Force Fighter Colors: Volume 2: the War in the Desert 1941-1942
Once the East African Campaign was concluded, some of the SAAF Fighter Squadrons, operating in Ethiopia and Sudan, moved north to Egypt to partake in the campaign in Palestine and the Desert War. 1 Squadron operated Hawker Hurricanes, while 2 Squadron operated the American built P-40 Tomahawks. 4 Squadron also transisioned to Egypt and soon joined 2 Squadron, flying the Curtiss P-40 Tomahawk. These two units were also joined by 5 Squadron, which had been formed and trained in the Union of South Africa. All three these units would eventually fly different marks of the P-40 Kittyhawk towards the end of the campaign. The ferocity of the aerial campaign over the North African desert and coastal plains can be illustrated by facts such as the numbers of fighter aircraft involved. The three SAAF Squadrons alone operated at least around 275 Tomahawks, that the author had been able to indentify. This was followed by a similar number of Kittyhawk Mk. I and Kittyhawk Mk. II aircraft. The SAAF would also operate more than 160 Kittyhawk Mk. II and Mk. IV fighters in the late stages of this campaign and the follow-up campaign in Italy. The different SAAF squadrons that eventually operated Hurricanes, also operated well in excess of 200 Hurricanes of different models during their time in North Africa. This volume covers the combat history of these fighter squadrons during the campaign, as well as the colors and markings of their aircraft. Primary sources, such as Squadron War Diaries, Pilot Logbooks, Personal Diaries, Aircraft Movement Cards, Medical and Incident Reports, Combat Reports and Supplementary reports, were used in the preparation of the text contained herein. This volume contains 88 pages, 20 full-color plates and 95 b&wphotos, indicating the people and aircraft operated by these squadrons. This volume will be followed by a third volume, tracing the onwards history of these squadrons as well as additional SAAF Fighter Squadrons during the final months of the campaign in North Africa. More volumes will follow, detailing the SAAF Fighter Squadron operations in Malta and the campaign in Sicily, Italy and the Balkans.

Cornell University Press Between War and the State: Civil Society in South Vietnam, 1954–1975
In Between War and the State, Van Nguyen-Marshall examines an array of voluntary activities, including mutual-help, professional, charitable, community development, student, women's, and rights organizations active in South Vietnam from 1954 to 1975. By bringing focus to the public lives of South Vietnamese people, Between War and the State challenges persistent stereotypes of South Vietnam as a place without society or agency. Such robust associational life underscores how an active civil society survived despite difficulties imposed by the war, government restrictions, economic hardship, and external political forces. These competing political forces, which included the United States, Western aid agencies, and Vietnamese communist agents, created a highly competitive arena wherein the South Vietnamese state did not have a monopoly on persuasive or coercive power. To maintain its influence, the state sometimes needed to accommodate groups and limit its use of violence. Civil society participants in South Vietnam leveraged their social connections, made alliances, appealed to the domestic and international public, and used street protests to voice their concerns, secure their interests, and carry out their activities.

Transcript Verlag The Political Ecology of Malaria – Emerging Dynamics of Wetland Agriculture at the Urban Fringe in Central Uganda

Matian van Soest looks at the malaria epidemic in the peri-urban zones of Uganda's capital Kampala against the backdrop of recent socio-ecological transformations. Based on long-term ethnographic research, the book provides a holistic picture of the malaria epidemic in central Uganda, revealing the highly localized character of an epidemic that once spanned across almost the entire globe. Understanding, and ultimately tackling the disease, requires an appreciation of the social, political, as well as ecological circumstances that frame this epidemic.
