World Yearbook of Education 2003, Language Education
      Taylor and Francis(Routledge) 2003 - Contributors include: Mark Baynham, Jill Bourne, Michael Byram, Amitav Choudhry, Frances Christie, Jim Cummins, Maya Khemlani David, Ingrid Gogolin, Subra Govindasamy, Georgii Khruslov, Sjaak Kroon, Joseph Lo Bianco, Joanna McPake, John C. Maher, Clare Mar-Molinero, Luiz Paulo Moita-Lopes, Akira Nakayama, Sigmund Ongstad, Carlos J. Ovando, Carol A. Padden, Anne Pakir, Peter Plüddermann, Euan Reid, Terrence G. Wiley The issues raised by the role of language in education are some of the most important and contentious faced by education systems across the globe. Language is embedded in the concepts of nationhood and identity, and is therefore directly linked to the very social and political fabric of a country. In a climate of increasing globalisation, development and mobility of populations, nations around the world are concerned with the tension between cultivating a sense of cultural and linguistic cohesion and making use of the linguistic diversity that exists in every country and region. This book examines the implications and impacts, the dilemmas and potential for language education in relation to education systems and wider society. Split into three key parts, it considers: *current issues in language education, including the role of language in maintaining power and inequalities, in encouraging participation and inclusion and in challenging the status quo, *different approaches to language education around the world, *the potential for language to provide opportunities for the disadvantaged, illustrated by case studies of three cities. This recent volume of the internationally respected World Yearbook of Education continues the tradition of offering a wide range of international perspectives from leading commentators on a universal concern. The material amassed here will be essential reading for teacher educators, education researchers and school leaders across the world. (Hardback) [Attributes: Hard Cover]

Jones, Edward P..
THE KNOWN WORLD Scarce Signed Copy of The First Hardcover Edition.
      New York City, NY: HarperCollins Publishers, 2003.. . Hardcover. First Edition. First Printing. 388 pages. As New in As New Dust Jacket. The author's debut novel. One of the greatest American novels of the new century. The First Hardcover Edition. Precedes and should not be confused with all other subsequent editions. Written over a ten-year period by a writer whose breakthrough book, "Lost in the City: Stories", is now considered a late-modern classic. One of the most handsome books in recent memory, beautifully produced by Laura Blost utilizing a classic photograph by Eudora Welty. "Henry Townsend, born a slave, is purchased and freed by his father, takes lessons in slave owning when he eventually buys his own slaves. Townsend is part of a small enclave of free blacks who own slaves, thus offering another angle on the complexities of slavery and social relations in a Virginia town just before The Civil War. His widow, Caldonia, grief-stricken and more conflicted about slavery than Henry was, fails to maintain the social order. Also caught in the miasma of slavery is Sheriff John Skiffington, an honorable man who, when presented with a slave, spends the remainder of his marriage, along with his wife, dithering about how to deal with the girl and ends up treating her like a daughter. These are only a few of the deftly portrayed characters in this elegantly written novel that explores the interweaving of sex, race, and class. Jones moves back and forth in time, making the reader omniscient, knowing what will eventually befall the characters despite their best and worst efforts, their aspirations, and their moral failings. This is a profoundly beautiful and insightful look at American slavery and human nature" (Publisher's blurb). A masterpiece, this is a "must-have" title for Edward P. Jones collectors. This copy is prominently and beautifully signed in black pen on the title page by Edward P. Jones. He underlined his signature for emphasis. This title remains available in multiple subsequent printings. This is one of very few signed copies of the First Hardcover Edition still available online and has no flaws, a pristine beauty. It is the single most beautiful copy we have ever seen. A rare signed copy thus. Winner of PEN/Hemingway Award in 1992 for "Lost In The City: Stories". When it rains, it pours: Winner of the National Book Critics Circle Award for Fiction in 2003 and the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction in 2003 for "The Known World", and the MacArthur Genius Grant in 2004. "The Known World" was selected by The New York Times panel of writers, critics, and editors as one of the Top 20 works of American fiction of the last 25 years. One of the finest living American writers. A flawless collectible copy. (SEE ALSO OTHER EDWARD P. JONES TITLES IN OUR CATALOG). ISBN 0060557540. Signed by Author.

      Brepols - Utrecht Studies in Medieval Literacy USML 14 Seeing the Invisible in Late Antiquity and the Early Middle Ages Papers from "Verbal and Pictorial Imaging: Representing and Accessing Experience of the Invisible, 400-1000" (Utrecht, 11-13 December 2003) G. de Nie, K. F. Morrison, M. Mostert * (eds.) XII+546 p., 99 b/w ill.+11 colour ill., 160 x 240 mm, 2005, Hardback ISBN 978-2-503-51759-9, EUR 100.00 Available English Text: Limiting itself to the vital centuries when the late Roman West reshaped itself into a first "Europe," the conference explored the dominant conception of human nature in that era: that human existence was both body (in the visible world of material things) and soul (in the invisible world of spirit). This was a legacy of pre-Christian elements handed down from Greek philosophy and Hebrew Scriptures. Assimilating it to indigenous cultures in the Roman West, many alien to the ancient Mediterranean world, precipitated sea-changes in the understanding of human psychology. Ensuing frictions sparked extraordinary expressions of creativity in words and visual images. It also created dangerously subversive disequilibriums in the collective mentality within élites and between them and majority cultures. The papers in this volume investigate numerous configurations of a new culture taking shape in that volatile environment. They contribute to continuing debates about the cognitive co-ordination of words and pictorial images, and to cross-disciplinary dialogues in such disparate fields as art history, religious literature, mysticism, and cultural anthropology.
