Paperback. Etat : Very Good. Asia, the Pacific Islands and the coasts of the Americas have long been studied separately. This essential single-volume history of the Pacific traces the global interactions and remarkable peoples that have connected these regions with each other and with Europe and the Indian Ocean, for millennia. From ancient canoe navigators, monumental civilisations, pirates and seaborne empires, to the rise of nuclear testing and global warming, Matt Matsuda ranges across the frontiers of colonial history, anthropology and Pacific Rim economics and politics, piecing together a history of the region. The book identifies and draws together the defining threads and extraordinary personal narratives which have contributed to this history, showing how localised contacts and contests have often blossomed into global struggles over colonialism, tourism and the rise of Asian economies. Drawing on Asian, Oceanian, European, American, ancient and modern narratives, the author assembles a fascinating Pacific region from a truly global perspective.…

Hardback. Etat : Good. Ein Mann, der in der Welt der Gesch fte und der gesellschaftlichen Ambitionen gefangen ist, steht im Mittelpunkt von Johann Elias Schlegels Werk Der gesch fftige. In einer Zeit, in der die b rgerlichen Werte und der wirtschaftliche Aufstieg im 18. Jahrhundert an Bedeutung gewinnen, entfaltet sich eine Geschichte, die die Komplexit t menschlicher Bestrebungen und die Herausforderungen des sozialen Aufstiegs beleuchtet. Die Handlung spielt in einer urbanen Umgebung, die von den Spannungen zwischen Tradition und Fortschritt gepr gt ist. Schlegel nutzt diese Kulisse, um die Dynamik zwischen pers nlichem Ehrgeiz und gesellschaftlichen Erwartungen zu erforschen. Die Themen des Werkes sind vielf ltig: Es geht um die Suche nach Anerkennung, die Gefahren des berm igen Ehrgeizes und die moralischen Dilemmata, die mit dem Streben nach Erfolg einhergehen. Der Protagonist navigiert durch ein Netz von Beziehungen und Verpflichtungen, das seine Integrit t und seine Werte auf die Probe stellt. Diese psychologische Analyse der Charaktere und ihrer Motivationen bietet einen tiefen Einblick in die menschliche Natur und die sozialen Strukturen der damaligen Zeit. Durch die Entwicklung der Charaktere und die Darstellung ihrer inneren Konflikte bietet das Buch dem Leser eine Gelegenheit, ber die Natur des Erfolgs und die Kosten des Ehrgeizes nachzudenken. Es l dt dazu ein, die eigenen Werte und Ziele zu hinterfragen und die Auswirkungen von gesellschaftlichem Druck auf das individuelle Leben zu erkennen. Matsuda, Coco (illustrateur).…

Paperback. Etat : Fair. The author at 16 years old was evacuated with her family to an internment camp for Japanese Americans, along with 110,000 other people of Japanese ancestry living on the West Coast. She faced an indefinite sentence behind barbed wire in crowded, primitive camps. She struggled for survival and dignity, and endured psychological scarring that has lasted a lifetime. This memoir is told from the heart and mind of a woman now nearly 80 years old who experienced the challenges and wounds of her internment at a crucial point in her development as a young adult. She brings passion and spirit to her story. Like "The Diary of Anne Frank," this memoir superbly captures the emotional and psychological essence of what it was like to grow up in the midst of this profound dislocation and injustice in the U.S. Few other books on this subject come close to the emotional power and moral significance of this memoir. In the end,the reader is buoyed by what Mary learns from her experiences and what she is able to do with her life. In 2005 she becomes one more Nissei who breaks her silence.…

Paperback. Etat : Good. In this "delightfully uncanny" collection of feminist retellings of traditional Japanese folktales, humans live side by side with spirits who provide a variety of useful services--from truth-telling to babysitting, from protecting castles to fighting crime (The New York Times Book Review) A busybody aunt who disapproves of hair removal; a pair of door-to-door saleswomen hawking portable lanterns; a cheerful lover who visits every night to take a luxurious bath; a silent house-caller who babysits and cleans while a single mother is out working. Where the Wild Ladies Are is populated by these and many other spirited women--who also happen to be ghosts. This is a realm in which jealousy, stubbornness, and other excessive "feminine" passions are not to be feared or suppressed, but rather cultivated; and, chances are, a man named Mr. Tei will notice your talents and recruit you, dead or alive (preferably dead), to join his mysterious company. With Where the Wild Ladies Are, Aoko Matsuda takes the rich, millenia-old tradition of Japanese folktales--shapeshifting wives and foxes, magical trees and wells--and wholly reinvents them, presenting a world in which humans are consoled, guided, challenged, and transformed by the only sometimes visible forces that surround them.…
