Returning To The Teachings / Rupert Ross

Public ISBD Title : Returning To The Teachings : Exploring Aboriginal Justice Material Type: printed text Authors: Rupert Ross, Author Edition statement: 2006 Publisher: Penguin Book Publication Date: 1996 ISBN (or other code): 978-0-14-305559-4 Languages : English (eng) Descriptors: Indigenous Peoples and First Peoples Philosophy Political Thought Keywords: Indigenous, Justice, Philosophy, Abstract: "In his bestselling book Dancing with a Ghost, Rupert Ross began his exploration of Aboriginal approaches to justice and the visions of life that shape them. Returning to the Teachings takes this exploration further still. During a three-year secondment with Justice Canada, Ross travelled from the Yukon to Cape Breton Island, examining—and experiencing—the widespread Aboriginal preference for “peacemaker justice.” In this remarkable book, he invites us to accompany him as he moves past the pain and suffering that grip so many communities and into the exceptional promise of individual, family and community healing that traditional teachings are now restoring to Aboriginal Canada. He shares his confusion, frustrations and delights as Elders and other teachers guide him, in their unique and often puzzling ways, into ancient visions of Creation and our role with it. Returning to the Teachings is about Aboriginal justice and much more, speaking not only to our minds, but also to our hearts and spirits. Above all, it stands as a search for the values and visions that give life its significance and that any justice system, Aboriginal or otherwise, must serve and respect" Returning To The Teachings : Exploring Aboriginal Justice [printed text] / Rupert Ross, Author  . -  2006 . - [S.l.] : Penguin Book, 1996.

The History of Sexuality / Michel Foucault

Public ISBD Title : The History of Sexuality : An introduction, Volume 1 Material Type: printed text Authors: Michel Foucault, Author Publisher: Vintage Books Publication Date: 1990 ISBN (or other code): 978-0-679-72469-8 Languages : English (eng) Descriptors: Gender Theory Philosophy Queer Sex Keywords: sexuality  gender  sex  history Abstract: "In Volume 1, Foucault criticizes the "repressive hypothesis", the idea that western society suppressed sexuality from the 17th to the mid-20th century due to the rise of capitalism and bourgeois society. Foucault argues that discourse on sexuality in fact proliferated during this period, during which experts began to examine sexuality in a scientific manner, encouraging people to confess their sexual feelings and actions. According to Foucault, in the 18th and 19th centuries society took an increasing interest in sexualities that did not fit within the marital bond: the "world of perversion" that includes the sexuality of children, the mentally ill, the criminal and the homosexual, while by the 19th century, sexuality was being readily explored both through confession and scientific enquiry."

The Little Edges / Fred Moten

Public ISBD Title : The Little Edges Material Type: electronic document Authors: Fred Moten, Author Publisher: Wesleyan University Press Publication Date: 2014 ISBN (or other code): 978-0-8195-7505-0 Languages : English (eng) Descriptors: Biography and personal stories Black/Anti-Black Philosophy Poetry Abstract: 'The Little Edges is a collection of poems that extends poet Fred Moten’s experiments in what he calls “shaped prose”—a way of arranging prose in rhythmic blocks, or sometimes shards, in the interest of audio-visual patterning. Shaped prose is a form that works the “little edges” of lyric and discourse, and radiates out into the space between them. As occasional pieces, many of the poems in the book are the result of a request or commission to comment upon a work of art, or to memorialize a particular moment or person. In Moten’s poems, the matter and energy of a singular event or person are transformed by their entrance into the social space that they, in turn, transform.
