Koasati Dictionary University of Nebraska Press
Książki / Literatura obcojęzyczna
Koasati Dictionary is one of the first modern dictionaries ever published of a language of the Muskogean language family, whose speakers formerly occupied most of the southeastern United States. When first met by Europeans in the sixteenth century, the Koasati people were living in eastern Tennessee. Early in the eighteenth century they moved to southcentral Alabama and eventually migrated to present-day Louisiana, Texas, and Oklahoma. Today their language survives in southwestern Louisiana, where it is still spoken by the majority of tribal members living there. Published three years after Kimball's richly detailed Koasati Grammar, this dictionary is the second of three monographs to result from his fifteen-year study of the language. In this work, Kimball provides the user with a substantial introduction outlining Koasati grammar and then organizes dictionary entries into two parts, the first arranged from Koasati to English and the second from English to Koasati. In addition to English translations, entries in the Koasati-English section include sample sentences that illustrate word usage as well as illuminate traditional Koasati culture.Most of these sentences are taken from narrative texts. The dictionary, like Kimball's grammar of Koasati, is an indispensable reference work for linguists, anthropologists, and historians - indeed, for anyone interested in the native culture history of the southeastern United Stated. Geoffrey D. Kimball is a postdoctoral fellow in the Department of Anthropology, Tulane University.

House of Rothschild Penguin Books
Książki / Literatura obcojęzyczna
A major work of economic, social and political history, Niall Ferguson's "The House of Rothschild: The World's Banker 1849-1999" is the second volume of the acclaimed, landmark history of the legendary Rothschild banking dynasty. Niall Ferguson's "House of Rothschild: Money's Prophets 1798-1848" was hailed as a 'great biography' by "Time" magazine and named one of the best books of 1998 by "Business Week". Now, with all the depth, clarity and drama with which he traced their ascent, Ferguson - the first historian with access to the long-lost Rothschild family archives - concludes his myth-breaking portrait of once of the most fascinating and power families of all time. From Crimea to World War II, wars repeatedly threatened the stability of the Rothschilds' worldwide empire. Despite these many global upheavals, theirs remained the biggest bank in the world up until the First World War, their interests extending far beyond the realm of finance. Yet the Rothschilds' failure to establish themselves successfully in the United States proved fateful, and as financial power shifted from London to New York after 1914, their power waned."A stupendous achievement, a triumph of historical research and imagination". (Robert Skidelsky, "The New York Review of Books"). "Niall Ferguson's brilliant and altogether enthralling two-volume family saga proves that academic historians can still tell great stories that the rest of us want to read". ("The New York Times Book Review"). "Superb...An impressive...account of the Rothschilds and their role in history". ("Boston Globe"). Niall Ferguson is one of Britain's most renowned historians. He is Laurence A. Tisch Professor of History at Harvard University and a Senior Research Fellow of Jesus College, Oxford. He is the bestselling author of "The Pity of War", "The Ascent of Money", "Empire, Colossus", "The War of the World" and "Civilization".

Bible Study on the Life and Works of Jesus Christ Faithful Life Publishers
Książki / Literatura obcojęzyczna
At age nineteen, Paul Light began his ministry in evangelism and pulpit supply. He married on his 25th birthday in 1952 and eventually had two children. His first pastorate began in 1953 at Jellico, Tennessee as a bi-vocational pastor. He served there for sixteen years, during which time they built a new church building. It took nine years to complete and was debt free. In 1969 he moved his family to Cincinnati, Ohio, where he took a job as an accountant. About seven months later he became a pastor in Latonia, Kentucky where he ministered for 21 years. During that time the church building was completely renovated. Beginning in 1979 Pastor Light took a total of seven tour groups to the Holy Land. Soon after that he began missionary tours to different countries, some lasting as long as six months. The tours included preaching, building, and evangelism. His specialty, however, was teaching in Bible Colleges and Seminaries. He has made at least 40 missionary tours. Even at age 87, he is still engaged in missionary tours of teaching. During the past thirty years, Dr. Light has been writing Study Guides and Commentaries on nearly all of the books of the Bible. Some of these are variations of approaches to Bible Books such as his Comparative Gospels, the Miracles of Elijah and Elisha, The Apocalyptic Books (Daniel and Revelation) and Characters of the Old Testament. He uses his books as teaching texts for the classes he teaches both abroad and in the United States. Enjoy this Bible Study on The Life and Works of Jesus Christ.

Edward S. Curtis and the North American Indian Project in the Field University of Nebraska Press
Książki / Literatura obcojęzyczna
Mick Gidley provides an intimate and informative glimpse of photographer Edward S. Curtis (1868-1952) and his associates as they embarked on their epic quest to document through word and picture the traditional cultures of Native Americans in the western United States---cultures that Curtis believed were inevitably doomed. Curtis's project in the early decades of the twentieth century became the largest anthropological enterprise ever undertaken in this country, yielding the monumental work The North American Indian. Its publication was a watershed in the anthropological study of Native Americans, inspiring the first feature-length documentary film, popular magazine articles, books for young readers, lectures, and photography exhibitions. Housing a wealth of ethnographic information yet steeped in nostalgia and predicated on the assumption that Native Americans were a "vanishing race," Curtis's work has been both influential and controversial, and its vision of Native Americans must still be reckoned with today.Gidley draws on reports and reflections by Curtis and the project's assistants, memoirs by Curtis family members, and eyewitness accounts by newspaper reporters in presenting an unprecedented look at anthropological fieldwork as it was commonly practiced during this period. He also examines the views of Curtis and his contemporaries concerning their enterprise and how both Native Americans and the mainstream American public perceived their efforts.
