Bringing to Light


Book Description

"The title Bringing to Light has two meanings. First, this book is an act of bringing to light a history that was gradually becoming mythologised, in part because the ethnographic films of the past are now rarely seen. Secondly, much of the film-making discussed in this book was motivated by a desire to bring to the light of film the socio-cultural life of Australia's Indigenous peoples."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

What Children Bring To Light


Book Description

Bonnie Shapiro clarifies the historical development of constructivism, and employs a constructivist approach in her own methodology. To construct new ideas means to take action based on beliefs about what one is doing when one is learning science. Learning is understood not only as a cognitive experience, but also as one that derives from the emotional, personal, social, cultural, and preconceptual. These often neglected dimensions, which permeate all subject matter learning, are given high status in What Children Bring to Light. Six case studies, each emphasizing a very different reception of one teacher’s inroduction of the topic, light, form the core of the book. Shapiro not only analyzes this core in the book’s third part, but shares the thinking that lies behind the research and data collection. “Not only is this book valuable reading for the practitioner, but it is also a model of how curriclum learning theory research can be communicated in an interesting yet scholarly way.” —The Science Teacher

Bringing the Dark Past to Light


Book Description

Despite the Holocaust's profound impact on the history of Eastern Europe, the communist regimes successfully repressed public discourse about and memory of this tragedy. Since the collapse of communism in 1989, however, this has changed. Not only has a wealth of archival sources become available, but there have also been oral history projects and interviews recording the testimonies of eyewitnesses who experienced the Holocaust as children and young adults. Recent political, social, and cultural developments have facilitated a more nuanced and complex understanding of the continuities and discontinuities in representations of the Holocaust. People are beginning to realize the significant role that memory of Holocaust plays in contemporary discussions of national identity in Eastern Europe. This volume of original essays explores the memory of the Holocaust and the Jewish past in postcommunist Eastern Europe. Devoting space to every postcommunist country, the essays in Bringing the Dark Past to Light explore how the memory of the "dark pasts" of Eastern European nations is being recollected and reworked. In addition, it examines how this memory shapes the collective identities and the social identity of ethnic and national minorities. Memory of the Holocaust has practical implications regarding the current development of national cultures and international relationships.







Bring to the Light - A True Story of a Spiritual Awakening


Book Description

‘In January 2009, something very special happened to me that completely changed the course of my life and myself as a person. After a series of strange events, a Being of Light appeared and rescued me from the midst of some very dark, grotesque, threatening, red-eyed beings. At that time, I didnt know what was going on or who these spirits were. After a few incredible visions and spiritual experiences, I started to develop an inner eye and acquired some abilities that enabled me to free my soul and go soul travelling. I was still scratching the surface of this new existence; I didn’t know the meaning or why all of this was happening to me. Soon, I started to feel very hungry for knowledge; I wanted and needed to know more.’This is the story of Benedetto Daniele Fiorista, who was inspired by a spiritual existence one day to change the way he lived. He started to read books on the subject and realised he was being put under initiation – which lead him to take a journey, which many refer to as the ‘journey of the spiritual warrior’. ‘After many tests and events, my soul started to call out for deliverance. By this time, I found myself absorbed in hours of meditation every day. I was trying to empower myself by using what I had learnt during my searches and studies.’In Bring to the Light, Benedetto tells his story, the stages of this spiritual process and their difficulties and rewards. It will appeal to fans of spiritual books and those both searching for answers and questioning the reasons for their existence.‘In the past two and half years, I have searched and I have found. I feel that to share this with the outer world is part of my growth.’
