Ajouter au panierPaperback. Etat : new. Paperback. Why I wrote this Memoir I authored this book to formally acknowledge the abuse inflicted by individuals who were entrusted with my care. My intention was also to address and overcome the lingering psychological effects associated with that trauma. Additionally, I sought recognition for the nurturing provided by my true mother, crediting her for my well-being and distancing acknowledgment from those connected to the prolonged mistreatment I experienced. I want my twin brother to know that when he was required to carry those heavy white buckets of slope for the pigs, we carried them together, and I will always remember that. Additionally, I would like him to know that his appearance, including his dark skin and jerry curly hairstyle, is a part of my memories. He can now return home without facing physical discipline or being expected to do tasks typically assigned to adults. I wrote a memoir to remember the red shirt incident involving my brother and to expose how foster mothers treated him and other children in their care. I am working toward moving beyond the pain I have experienced, and although these feelings may persist, I am now able to discuss these events openly, which was not previously possible. I can state that being slapped affected my sense of self-worth. Additionally, I recognize that being raped and sexually assaulted has influenced my interactions with men, while also understanding that such actions do not represent all men. I had to return to the gate because of my mother and twin brother so I would always know where to find them. That place holds my identity, love, and all my happy memories. I wrote this book for my siblings, to show it's okay to let go of pain and recognize that many challenges stem from our time in foster care. My goal is to shed the label of "foster child," even as an adult. Mommie, you may now rest assured that, although my journey has been lengthy, I have become stronger, improved, and continue to heal. Your love will always remain with me. I wrote this book as a tribute to your care and to honor the bond between us. This item is printed on demand.

Ajouter au panierVery good. Light wear along original folds. Close left margin on larger map. Size 19.75 x 28.25 Inches. A scarce and intriguing bilingual city plan or map of Sofia, Bulgaria, and accompanying booklet produced in 1928 by Alexander Petrov to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the city's liberation from Ottoman rule. A Closer Look The map covers the city of Sofia and its immediate suburbs. The city is divided into districts, which are numbered and color-shaded. Streets are named throughout in Bulgarian and French, as are various public institutions (which are also numerically indexed), including government offices, hospitals, arsenals and other military facilities, parks, train stations, schools, and houses of worship. Railways and the city's streetcar or tramway network are traced. The cartography here roughly corresponds to the Amadier Plan, a bold re-envisioning of Sophia, not only as a national capital but also as a modern European city - rejecting nearly 500 years of Ottomanization. A legend appears at the bottom-left, and a grid surrounds the map, corresponding to an index in the accompanying booklet. The booklet, including the map, was produced to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the liberation of Sofia from Ottoman rule in 1878. It includes a small map of Sofia as it appeared in 1878 (the second image above). The use of French alongside Bulgarian suggests that the booklet was intended for tourists as well as locals or perhaps was meant as an indication of the city's modern, Western European orientation (see below). National Identity This map emerged as Bulgaria, having been a Central Power and thus on the losing side of World War I (1914 - 1918), was struggling with low national morale, staggering war indemnities, and a refugee crisis that threatened cultural identity. The map is a lavish production meant to invoke national and local pride. Sofia is an ancient city, most likely the oldest in Europe, with evidence suggesting it was occupied during the Stone Age. It came under the control of the Ottoman Empire in 1382 and, during the subsequent centuries, evolved into an Ottoman-style city. The Russo-Turkish War (1877 - 1878) left the Ottoman Empire unable to fully control its rebellious European provinces, and the 1878 Treaty of San Stefano declared Sofia the capital of a revived Christian Bulgarian state. Reasserting Sofia's Europeanism After nearly 500 years of Ottoman rule, Bulgarians were eager to shed 'oriental' influence and turn Sofia into a Western-style modern European capital. The city was completely redesigned according to a regulatory plan that S. Amadier and Vladimir Roubal devised in 1879. The winding streets and dead-end courtyards, born of the Ottoman Mahallah system, were replaced with an orthogonal street network (akin to Washington D.C.) and a regular grid cadastre. The main boulevards were aligned with the ancient trade arteries that defined Sofia in the Classical Era. The heart of the orthogonal center is thus situated at Sv. Nedelya Church (just south of the old Ottoman center), roughly in the same location as the ancient Roman Forum. Cardinal boulevards followed ancient trade connections active in the pre-Ottoman era, leading in the directions of Thessaloniki, Pautalia (Kyustendil), Germanea (Separeva Banya), Trimontium (Plovdiv), and Nansos (Nis). Chromolithography Chromolithography, sometimes called oleography, is a color lithographic technique developed in the mid-19th century. The process involved using multiple lithographic stones, one for each color, to yield a rich composite effect. Oftentimes, the process would start with a black basecoat upon which subsequent colors were layered. Some chromolithographs used 30 or more separate lithographic stones to achieve the desired product. Chromolithograph color could also be effectively blended for even more dramatic results. The process became extremely popular in the late 19th and early 20th centuries when it emerged as the dominant method of color p.
