Teen Spirit offers a novel and provocative perspective on how we came to be living in an age of political immaturity and social turmoil. Award-winning author Paul Howe argues it's because a teenage mentality has slowly gripped the adult world. Howe contends that many features of how we live today—some regrettable, others beneficial—can be traced to the emergence of a more defined adolescent stage of life in the early twentieth century, when young people started spending their formative, developmental years with peers, particularly in formal school settings. He shows how adolescent qualities have slowly seeped upward, where they have gradually reshaped the norms and habits of adulthood. The effects over the long haul, Howe contends, have been profound, in both the private realm and in the public arena of political, economic, and social interaction. Our teenage traits remain part of us as we move into adulthood, so much so that some now need instruction manuals for adulting. Teen Spirit challenges our assumptions about the boundaries between adolescence and adulthood. Yet despite a cultural system that seems to be built on the ethos of Generation Me, it's not all bad. In fact, there has been an equally impressive rise in creativity, diversity, and tolerance within society: all traits stemming from core components of the adolescent character. Howe's bold and suggestive approach to analyzing the teen in all of us helps make sense of the impulsivity driving society and encourages us to think anew about civic reengagement.

Francesca Lia Block, critically acclaimed author of Weetzie Bat, brings this eerie and redemptive ghost story to life with her signature, poetic prose. It's perfect for fans of supernatural stories with a touch of romance like the Beautiful Creatures series by Kami Garcia and Margaret Stohl. After Julie's grandmother passes away, she is forced to move across town to the not-so-fancy end of Beverly Hills and start over at a new school. The only silver lining to the perpetual dark cloud that seems to be following her? Clark—a die-hard fan of Buffy and all things Joss Whedon, who is just as awkward and damaged as she is. Her kindred spirit. When the two try to contact Julie's grandmother with a Ouija board, they make contact with a different spirit altogether. The real kind. And this ghost will do whatever it takes to come back to the world of the living. Francesca Lia Block's latest young adult novel is a haunting work about family, loss, love, and redemption.

Music insider and progressive activist Danny Goldberg has spent decades tuning into the rhythms and voices that speak straight to the hearts and desires of American youth. In that time, one fact has become increasingly clear: America's venerable political leaders are too often tone deaf. In this startling, provocative book, Goldberg shows how today's professional public servants have managed to achieve nothing less that the indefensible, wholesale alienation of an entire generation.

Sells Like Teen Spirit written by Ryan Moore and has been published by NYU Press this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2010 with Music categories.
Music has always been central to the cultures that young people create, follow, and embrace. In the 1960s, young hippie kids sang along about peace with the likes of Bob Dylan and Joan Baez and tried to change the world. In the 1970s, many young people ended up coming home in body bags from Vietnam, and the music scene changed, embracing punk and bands like The Sex Pistols. In Sells Like Teen Spirit, Ryan Moore tells the story of how music and youth culture have changed along with the economic, political, and cultural transformations of American society in the last four decades. By attending concerts, hanging out in dance clubs and after-hour bars, and examining the do-it-yourself music scene, Moore gives a riveting, first-hand account of the sights, sounds, and smells of “teen spirit.” Moore traces the histories of punk, hardcore, heavy metal, glam, thrash, alternative rock, grunge, and riot grrrl music, and relates them to wider social changes that have taken place. Alongside the thirty images of concert photos, zines, flyers, and album covers in the book, Moore offers original interpretations of the music of a wide range of bands including Black Sabbath, Black Flag, Metallica, Nirvana, and Sleater-Kinney. Written in a lively, engaging, and witty style, Sells Like Teen Spirit suggests a more hopeful attitude about the ways that music can be used as a counter to an overly commercialized culture, showcasing recent musical innovations by youth that emphasize democratic participation and creative self-expression—even at the cost of potential copyright infringement.

« Bruno, la trentaine bien passée, est batteur dans un groupe de rock appelé REVOLVER. Depuis plusieurs albums, le groupe est sur le point d'exploser, mais ne fait que frémir. Alors qu'il vient de se faire virer de chez sa copine, pour la première fois de sa vie, Bruno se demande s'il n'aurait pas un peu plané sur son plan de vie. Il reçoit un coup de fil de Alice, une fille qu'il n'a pas revue depuis treize ans et qui veut le rencontrer au plus vite. Il la retrouve place de la République, et elle lui apprend qu'il a une petite fille de treize ans - Camille - qui vient de découvrir son existence grâce à sa grand-mère et qui tient absolument à le rencontrer. Il refuse puis obtempère, sympathise avec la gamine, et se rend compte que s'il trouvait sa situation compliquée et un peu inextricable en début de roman, c'est bien parti pour ne pas s'arranger. Comment faire quand on est déjà trop vieux pour jouer au jeune, mais pas encore assez adulte pour savoir se débrouiller dans le monde ? De la paternité, de la maternité et de l'adolescence. Qu'est-ce qu'on peut dire à des gosses de treize ans sur le monde qui nous entoure, et comment les adolescents peuvent percevoir des parents qui n'ont ni certitude, ni repère moral à transmettre ? C'est également un roman sur le rock, les compromis, la réussite sociale, l'aggravation de nos conditions de vie dans une société qui ne rend plus personne heureux et ne laisse plus personne tranquille. Et qui démontre qu'une seule chose ne change pas tellement, sinon vaguement de forme : les petites filles tombent amoureuses, éperdument, bêtement, comme elles le faisaient au temps de la Bovary......» V.D.
