Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Social scientist Gilbert Nichols, adopted into a Native American family over forty years ago, draws from his deep immersion in their culture and his academic work to bridge ancient wisdom and modern challenges. Nichols explores humanity's shared past, beginning with the Axial Age (2800-2200 BP), a time when borders, hierarchies, and materialistic ideologies solidified, shaping today's fractured systems.Through the lens of Native American traditions-rooted in spirituality, sustainability, storytelling, and equality-Nichols offers an alternative worldview. These values provide transformative insights into living harmoniously with the Earth and one another, offering solutions to the divisive paradigms dominating politics and society.The book culminates in a bold vision for integrating Indigenous perspectives into contemporary systems. Nichols argues that this synthesis can heal divisions, reimagine democracy, and guide us toward sustainability. Far from abstract theory, his work serves as a practical guide for individuals and communities seeking to apply these lessons in daily life and decision-making.For those passionate about Native American culture and addressing humanity's pressing challenges, Echoes of the Earth is a call to action. As James Baldwin reminds us: 'Not everything that is faced can be changed, but nothing can be changed until it is faced.'. …

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Unlike most American histories, this book identifies the aggressive Nation-State Axial paradigm that drove colonialism and the relationship-based Native American value system that responded to it for a more accurate view of specific historic events.Traditional American histories have reflected the European mindset. More recently, Native authors have begun the process of correcting those views of specific events. This book takes a different approach. It identifies the aggressive Nation-State Axial paradigm that drove colonialism and the relationship-based Native American value system that responded to it for a more accurate view of specific historic events. The main arguments include that: The Nation-State drive for conquest skewed our understanding of the sophistication of Native American culturesIndigenous cultures' inclusive value systems blinded them to an enemy who came to destroy them and take their homeland Historic half-truths have blocked understanding of our historyWe are still caught in the five-thousand-year Axial patterns and philosophies that drove colonization Native wisdom could help us with today's serious challengesThe Wide Range of Human Potential incorporates anthropological and historic Western philosophical processes. It explains how and why the historic development of European materialism doomed the sophisticated and starkly different Native American thought processes and value systems. It also corrects current views of specific historic events to explain Indigenous responses for a better understanding of what really happened. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…

Hardback. Condizione: New. Essays on aspects of medieval French literature, celebrating the scholarship of Sarah Kay and her influence on the field.Sarah Kay is one of the most influential medievalists of the past fifty years, making vital, theoretically informed interventions on material from early medieval chansons de geste, through troubadour lyric, to late medieval philosophy and poetry, in French, Occitan, Latin, and Italian. This volume in her honour is organised around her six major monographs, published between 1990 and 2017. Its essays engage in critical, constructive dialogue with different aspects of Kay's work, and envisage how these might shape medieval French as a discipline in coming years or decades. The subject matters demonstrate the richness of the discipline: animal studies, musicology, temporality, the material turn, medieval textuality, feminism, queer theory, voice, medieval and modern intellectual formations, psychoanalysis, philology, visual arts, transversal criticism, the literary object, affect, rhetoric, body, the past, modern responses to medieval forms and tropes, non-Christian texts and thought-patterns, politics. Reiterating Kay's engagement with medieval literature's complex philosophical debates and analytical scrutiny of human knowledge and affect, they follow her in emphasising how the pleasure of reading medieval literature depends crucially on that literature's intellectual robustness. These essays shed new light on a range of canonical and less well-known medieval texts and artefacts, to present a fresh perspective on the field of medieval studies.…
