Within heritage studies the relationship between national heritage and national identity is frequently taken as axiomatic. L’importance du facteur idéologique peut être mise en lumière par le discours justifiant des transformations profondes et douloureuses dans des domaines clés, qui étaient auparavant le champ privilégié et les réalisations phare de l’appareil bureaucratique socialiste. Or le néolibéralisme est, quoique l’on dise, l’idéologie dominante dans ce vaste espace autrefois dominé par le marxisme et le léninisme. C’est le facteur idéologique, notamment la façon de concevoir les transformations et les mettre en pratique. Mais il y a un autre facteur dont on parle beaucoup moins. L’un d’eux est la contrainte extérieure, provenant du désir ferme des dirigeants politiques roumains de voir le pays s’intégrer dans les structures politiques, économiques et de sécurité au niveau européen. On ne peut pas comprendre complètement le cours et l’ampleur de ces changements sans prendre en compte des facteurs essentiels. La Roumanie a connu, au cours de la transition post-communiste, un profond changement au niveau de l’économie et de la société. Hale guessed that they were of a language much older, the uncompromised speech of mountain conversing with mountain and lightning and cloud, seeming random only to creatures like himself whose withered verbs and nouns had grown apart from the things they described. The cracks and thunders made syllables in the depleted air, but they didn’t seem to be in Arabic. ”… From over the shoulder of the mountain, on the side by the Abich I glacier, he heard booming and cracking and then the earthbound thunder sounded to his right, and he saw that it was the noise of avalanches, galleries and valleys of snow moving down from the heights and separating into fragments then tumbling and exploding into jagged bursts of white against the remote gray sky before they disappeared below his view. Perhaps this will explain better than I what I mean by wonderful descriptions and almost “lyrical prose.” It has something to say to the global family about the ravages of racism, the strength of the family and the perseverance of the African spirit." "Her book may be written to her children's children, but its messages go beyond bloodlines. She tells a candid, unself-pitying story of endurance in the face of hardships relentlessly reinforced by the apartheid system. But then came the disaster of teenage pregnancy and forced a change of all immediate plans for a teaching career. All this is described with humour, zest and enjoyment of township life. Her early years in a Transkei village, her childhood and adolescence on the Cape Flats, in Retreat and later Guguletu, where she was poor but secure in a loving family. It is an account of her eventful first twenty three years.

Antarctica is the last clean place on Earth. It brings up other familiar topics from KSR's other books as well. What does this mean for Antarctica? For those oil deposits? Or every nation capable of staging an end-run around the international treaty? A treaty unenforced and possibly unenforceable? This one obviously hits closer to home, with all our crazy and screwed-up personages making yet another mess of things.īecause, let's face it, no nation or corporation has a good track record when it comes to reckless greed, fear of the upcoming energy crisis, or just not giving a shit because "things are bad everywhere". This is quite aside from the Mars Trilogy, as good as it was. Seriously, though, this one has the added distinction of KSR actually having been to Antarctica, and plot aside, the descriptions of the 60 below landscape, the problems associated with long hikes or just plain living there at all, makes this one of the most vivid novels he's ever written. Almost every time I read a KSR book, I'm either awestruck, amazed at the scope, or I have to say something silly like, "Every time I read a KSR book, it's the favorite book I've read by him!" My goal in writing THIS I KNOW was to take a God-fearing preacher and thrust him into a situation where he’s forced to reexamine everything he understands, or thinks he understands. But that’s pretty much where real life and story part ways. Carter, my mother lost a full-term baby that she deeply grieved. Grace has four sisters I had five sisters and a baby brother. Like Grace, I was a child of the sixties, albeit a half-step behind my young protagonist. They live in the fictional lakeside town of Cherry Hill, MI. That said, there are definite parallels between my family and the Carters. Conversely, although they suffered through my rebellious teen years, I never for a moment in my life felt unloved by my parents. Grace’s daddy is dogmatic, proud and devoted to his family and flock, but he can’t see past his rigid beliefs to recognize how blessed he is by a daughter he fears and condemns. Carter, my father was as kind and generous a man as you could meet-not the type of person who would make for a dynamic character in a novel. Yes, I enjoyed a fertile upbringing from which to harvest colorful characters and a rich setting, but no, this is not a story about me or about my family. Occasionally someone will ask if THIS I KNOW is autobiographical. In my author bio I describe how I teethed on the back of Southern Baptist pews in rural Midwest towns where my father preached. My mom would have three more babies before completing the Edwards family. That’s me in my oldest sister Sharon’s lap.
