This book examines the challenges and possibilities of conducting cultural environmental history research today. Disciplinary commitments certainly influence the questions scholars ask and the ways they seek out answers, but some methodological challenges go beyond the boundaries of any one discipline. The book examines: how to account for the fact that humans are not the only actors in history yet dominate archival records; how to attend to the non-visual senses when traditional sources offer only a two-dimensional, non-sensory version of the past; how to decolonize research in and beyond the archives; and how effectively to use sources and means of communication made available in the digital age. This book will be a valuable resource for those interested in environmental history and politics, sustainable development and historical geography.

An interdisciplinary environmental humanities volume that explores human-environment relationships on our permanently polluted planet. While toxicity and pollution are ever present in modern daily life, politicians, juridical systems, media outlets, scholars, and the public alike show great difficulty in detecting, defining, monitoring, or generally coming to terms with them. This volume’s contributors argue that the source of this difficulty lies in the struggle to make sense of the intersecting temporal and spatial scales working on the human and more-than-human body, while continuing to acknowledge race, class, and gender in terms of global environmental justice and social inequality. The term toxic timescapes refers to this intricate intersectionality of time, space, and bodies in relation to toxic exposure. As a tool of analysis, it unpacks linear understandings of time and explores how harmful substances permeate temporal and physical space as both event and process. It equips scholars with new ways of creating data and conceptualizing the past, present, and future presence and possible effects of harmful substances and provides a theoretical framework for new environmental narratives. To think in terms of toxic timescapes is to radically shift our understanding of toxicants in the complex web of life. Toxicity, pollution, and modes of exposure are never static; therefore, dose, timing, velocity, mixture, frequency, and chronology matter as much as the geographic location and societal position of those exposed. Together, these factors create a specific toxic timescape that lies at the heart of each contributor’s narrative. Contributors from the disciplines of history, human geography, science and technology studies, philosophy, and political ecology come together to demonstrate the complex reality of a toxic existence. Their case studies span the globe as they observe the intersection of multiple times and spaces at such diverse locations as former battlefields in Vietnam, aging nuclear-weapon storage facilities in Greenland, waste deposits in southern Italy, chemical facilities along the Gulf of Mexico, and coral-breeding laboratories across the world.

«Tutto questo succede nella Terra dei fuochi, che è la mia terra. Al tempo dei papiri e delle tavolette cerate era la Campania felix, in quello di Twitter e Facebook è la pattumiera d'Italia. Una discarica dove ogni anno vengono avvistati seimila roghi di rifiuti, che inceneriscono scorie industriali, sprigionano veleni, ammorbano l'aria e uccidono la vita nei campi.»A scrivere queste parole è Padre Maurizio Patriciello, non un politico ma un semplice sacerdote divenuto nel giro di pochi mesi il leader del movimento civile che chiede con urgenza la bonifica della Terra dei fuochi. E che, oltre ad aver conquistato l'attenzione mediatica e delle istituzioni, qualcosa di concreto sta anche finalmente ottenendo, come dimostra il decreto del governo Letta del dicembre 2013.Tutto ha inizio nella notte dell'8 giugno 2012, quando Padre Maurizio si sveglia assalito da una puzza insopportabile a cui è impossibile sfuggire. Per lui è come una chiamata del Signore: accende il computer e su Facebook comincia a raccogliere la protesta della gente che, impotente, si è vista man mano avvelenare la propria campagna. Non che prima di quella notte non se ne sapesse nulla - c'erano state inequivocabili denunce come Gomorra di Saviano nel 2006 e Biùtiful cauntri nel 2007, film pluripremiato e presto dimenticato -, ma l'immane devastazione dell'Agro aversano, lo scampolo di terra dove in due decenni sono stati scaricati dieci milioni di tonnellate di rifiuti, era stata oggetto di una "rimozione collettiva" o di interventi non sostenuti da una reale volontà politica: un'ottantina di inchieste giudiziarie che non hanno portato a nulla, la nomina di diversi commissari straordinari, misure di facciata attuate solo per tener buona l'Europa Davanti all'inesorabile avanzare del percolato che gocciola dall'immondizia in putrefazione minacciando le falde acquifere, davanti alla devastazione che ha invaso campi un tempo fertilissimi, davanti all'impennata delle morti per tumore anche fra i bambini,Padre Maurizio ha capito che non poteva fermarsi. E, per scongiurare l'Apocalisse, ha intrapreso la battaglia che racconta in questo libro, e che è solo all'inizio. Dalle sue parole, forti e chiare su una realtà agghiacciante quanto complessa, nasce un messaggio importantissimo per la coscienza civile di noi italiani.

Il saggio prende avvio dalle proteste popolari contro il progetto di due mega impianti inquinanti di trattamento rifiuti che hanno visto come scenario la media valle del fiume Crati in Calabria tra la fine degli anni novanta del secolo scorso e i mesi a cavallo tra il 2013 e il 2014. A partire da queste esperienze di impegno e di lotta popolare a tutela degli equilibri ecoambientali del territorio, l'autore propone strategie alternative per la gestione dei rifiuti e piu' in generale per lo sviluppo delle zone rurali interne e dei borghi storici attraverso la la riscoperta delle identita', delle tradizioni e delle risorse paesaggistiche, storico-culturali, agricole, enogastronomiche e folcloristiche locali : in una parola agricultura. In un intero capitolo del volume viene tracciata una mappa dei disastri ambientali in quella che viene definita la Calabria dei fuochi. Infine l'autore, nel ripercorrere le tappe fondamentali del movimento ecologista nel novecento ne mette a nudo limiti e contraddizioni. Tale variegato mondo, ha subito, sempre secondo lo scrittore, strumentalizzazioni politiche che ne hanno svuotato le enormi potenzialita', relegandolo in gabbie ideologiche prive di qualsivoglia fondamento storico.

Symbols written by Raymond Firth and has been published by Routledge this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2011 with Signs and symbols categories.
This book first published in 1973 offers a broad survey of the study of symbolic ideas and behaviour. The study of symbolism is popular nowadays and anthropologists have made substantial contributions to it. Raymond Firth has long been internationally known for his field research in the Solomons and Malaysia, and for his theoretical work on kinship, economics and religion. Here from a new angle, he has produced a broad survey of the study of symbolic ideas and behaviour. Professor Firth examines definitions of symbol. He traces the history of scientific inquiry into the symbolism of religious cults, mythology and dreams back into the eighteenth century. He compares some modern approaches to symbolism in art, literature and philosophy with those in social anthropology. He then cites examples in anthropological treatment of symbolic material from cultures of varying sophistication. Finally he offers dispassionate analyses of symbols used in contemporary Western situations - from hair-styles to the use and abuse of national flags; from cults of Black Jesus to the Eucharistic rite. In all this Professor Firth combines social and political topicality with a scholarly and provocative theoretical inquiry.

Amid the rubble of a city blasted by a civil war that many fear will cross borders and engulf Europe, the Hotel Florida on Madrid's chic Gran Via has become a haven for foreign journalists and writers. It is here that six people meet and find their lives changed forever. Ernest Hemingway, his career stalled, his marriage sour, hopes that this war will give him fresh material and a new romance; Martha Gellhorn, an ambitious young journalist hungry for love and experience, thinks she will find both with Hemingway in Spain. Robert Capa and Gerda Taro, idealistic and ground-breaking young photographers based in Paris, want to capture history in the making and are inventing moder photojournalism in the process. And Arturo Barea, chief of the Republican government's foreign press office, and Ilsa Kulcsar, his Austrian deputy, are struggling to balance truth-telling with their loyalty to their sometimes-compromised cause - a struggle that places both of their lives at risk. Hotel Florida traces the tangled wartime destinies of these three couples - and a host of supporting characters - living as intensely as they had ever done, against the backdrop of a critical moment in history. It is a narrative of love and reinvention that is, finally, a story about truth, finding it, telling it - and living it, whatever the cost.
