The perfect gift or coffee table piece, this second volume of The Heritage Golf Reader set presents a wide ranging sampling of verse, short stories, memorable quotes, and jokes about the beloved (and cursed!) game. Many famous writers are represented, includ-ing the creator of Winnie the Pooh, A.A. Milne, "An Inland Voyage." The identity of many is unknown. Other stories presented in this second volume of this set are two stories by P. G. Wodehouse, "The Heel of Achilles," and "A Mixed Threesome"; John Campbell Haywood's "The Way of Some," Harry Irving Shumway's "The Greatest Duffer I Ever Knew," A. W. Tillinghast's "A Woman's Way," "The Letter of the Law" by Theodore Banks, and two by the prolific Gerald Batchelor, "The Major's Bogey," and "Local Rules." Poetry includes "A Wonderful Score" by the West Point graduate General Walter N. P. Darrow and "The Conundrum of the Links" by the legendary sportswriter Grantland Rice. Among fifty seven poems there is one of unknown author-ship that was inspired by Rudyard Kipling's "If," as well as poems inspired by Edgar Allan Poe, "The Ravin' of a Golf Maniac," and R. M. Milnes (Lord Houghton), "Duffers Yet." One nonfiction article proves that many issues abide quite a while, as some of the issues discussed today were discussed by Horace Hutchinson (British Amateur Champion 1886, 1887) in 1903's "The Success of the Wom-an Golfer." There are several contributions by golfer/writers better known for their accomplishments in other fields. These include the course designer A. W. Tillinghast and the playwright and Episcopalian minister William Gil-bert van Tassel Sutphen who named the nineteenth hole, and the man who introduced the curveball to college baseball (Clinton Scollard). Memorable observations include those by the writers H. G. Wells, Harper Lee, John Up-dike and the creator of James Bond, Ian Fleming. Memorable quotes from two philosophers, humorists Will Rogers and H. L. Mencken are included. Presidential observations from Woodrow Wilson and Gerald Ford are also included. Finally also are the ideas of the great one, Bobby Jones.

Over the past decade, Korean popular culture has become a global phenomenon. The "Korean Wave" of music, film, television, sports, and cuisine generates significant revenues and cultural pride in South Korea. The Korean Popular Culture Reader provides a timely and essential foundation for the study of "K-pop," relating the contemporary cultural landscape to its historical roots. The essays in this collection reveal the intimate connections of Korean popular culture, or hallyu, to the peninsula's colonial and postcolonial histories, to the nationalist projects of the military dictatorship, and to the neoliberalism of twenty-first-century South Korea. Combining translations of seminal essays by Korean scholars on topics ranging from sports to colonial-era serial fiction with new work by scholars based in fields including literary studies, film and media studies, ethnomusicology, and art history, this collection expertly navigates the social and political dynamics that have shaped Korean cultural production over the past century.

In The Country Music Reader Travis D. Stimeling provides an anthology of primary source readings from newspapers, magazines, and fan ephemera encompassing the history of country music from circa 1900 to the present. Presenting conversations that have shaped historical understandings of country music, it brings the voices of country artists and songwriters, music industry insiders, critics, and fans together in a vibrant conversation about a widely loved yet seldom studied genre of American popular music. Situating each source chronologically within its specific musical or cultural context, Stimeling traces the history of country music from the fiddle contests and ballad collections of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries through the most recent developments in contemporary country music. Drawing from a vast array of sources including popular magazines, fan newsletters, trade publications, and artist biographies, The Country Music Reader offers firsthand insight into the changing role of country music within both the music industry and American musical culture, and presents a rich resource for university students, popular music scholars, and country music fans alike.

With their intimate settings, subdued action and likeable characters, cozy mysteries are rarely seen as anything more than light entertainment. The cozy, a subgenre of crime fiction, has been historically misunderstood and often overlooked as the subject of serious study. This anthology brings together a groundbreaking collection of essays that examine the cozy mystery from a range of critical viewpoints. The authors engage with the standard classification of a cozy, the characters who appear in its pages, the environment where the crime occurs and how these elements reveal the cozy story's complexity in surprising ways. Essays analyze cozy mysteries to argue that Agatha Christie is actually not a cozy writer; that Columbo fits the mold of the cozy detective; and that the stories' portrayals of settings like the quaint English village reveal a more complicated society than meets the eye.

Sport is an integral part of British culture and an important aspect of modern life, but although its importance has been recognised in academic history, in the growing and related fields of heritage and museum studies it has yet to be fully appreciated and brought into interaction More...with historical studies. Ideologically, sport and heritage both convey powerful messages, responsible for shaping our understanding of sport, history, and the past; although they have essentially operated as separate spheres, one important aspect of convergence between them is seen in the rise and popularity of sports museums, the collecting of sporting art and memorabilia, and popular concern over the demise of historic sports buildings and places. The essays in this volume look at sports history as manifested in academic enquiry, museum exhibition and heritage sites. They deal among other things with the public representation of sport and why it matters; its impact on public spheres; the direction of sports heritage studies and what they should be attempting to achieve; the role of museums in public history; and the place, memory and meaning in the historic sports landscape.
