Rainbows for Blake
This paperback book reveals the struggle of Micro-Preemie, Blake Michael Johnson, born 10/16/04, 14 weeks premature, weighing only 1 lb, 6 oz. Blake's survival required 14 months of Children's Hospital Intensive Care Support before he was healthy enough to go home with his parents to his waiting nursery. He triumphed over multiple serious issues such as: Bacterial Infections, Chronic Lung Disease, Severe Pulminary Hypertension, PDA Surgeries, Heart Banding Surgeries, Heart VSD Surgery, Hernia Surgery, ROP Disease requiring Laser and Vitrectomy Eye Surgeries, Liver Complications and Ventilator Support Issues, and more. This story focuses on how his parents supported his struggles and how a community of family and friends supported all three with a continuous outflowing of love and prayer utilizing an online journal for daily connection to everyone. Prayers focused on God's promise of the HOPE to be found at the end of HIS Rainbow (after the storm of struggles).
Blake in Our Time
Blake in Our Time explores the work of British poet and artist William Blake in the context of the material culture of his era. In the 1960s, University of Toronto scholar G.E. Bentley, Jr almost singlehandedly shifted the focus of Blake criticism from formalism and symbolism to the materiality that contextualizes Blake's work. Following in the footsteps of Bentley's pioneering scholarship, this collection, richly illustrated, demonstrates that the locus of Blake's work lies in the elements that are historically particular to his place and time. Topics include the impact of the town of Chichester on Blake's imagination, the material processes of Blake's painting, the detection of a Blake forgery, and new biographical materials, using archives and online resources, on Blake's contemporaries, patrons, peers, and friends. Essays on the importance of Blake collections world-wide, on variant printings, and on the heirs of Blake in British painting extend the focus of this remarkable investigation to include chalcography and book history.
At the Feet of the Elders: A Journey into a Lowcountry Family History
The disintegration of slavery in the Lowcountry of South Carolina began with the federal occupation of Beaufort in 1861. After the Battle of Port Royal, slave owners fled their plantations, simultaneously freeing thousands of enslaved people who labored on cotton plantations throughout the Sea Islands of Beaufort County, South Carolina. Despite slavery destroying the knowledge of family histories in many African American families, Darius Brown illustrates the journey of his ancestors from the colonial period, American Civil War, and thereafter. In this book, the lives of his ancestors are illuminated with the use of archival records that shed light on their arrival from Africa, experiences during slavery, and their lives as freedmen. At the Feet of the Elders is an astonishing account that shows the resilience and perseverance of a people who were held tightly in the grip of chattel slavery. It honors the tradition of preserving oral histories, genetic genealogy, and serves as a template on how to reconstruct the lives of enslaved people.
Index to Marriages and Deaths in the New York Herald: 1835-1855
This first volume of Mr. Maher's four-volume work indexes 38,000 death notices and 14,000 marriage notices. The extensive notices refer to people up and down the East Coast as well as to midwesterners and persons from as far west as the State of California.
Blake, Nationalism, and the Politics of Alienation
Despite his reputation as a staunch individualist and repeated attacks on institutions that constrain the individual's imagination, Julia Wright argues that William Blake rarely represents isolation positively and explores his concern with the kind of national community being established.
