Fold and Say® Basic Concepts Mini-Books has 106 reproducible Mini-Books to help teach children 53 basic concept pairs. These mini-books present the concepts, one at a time, using several different scenes. Children learn the concept in the first few scenes and then identify the concept within a scene using a foil (unrelated concept). The last scene in the mini-book asks the student to draw, color, or write the concept for extra practice or assessment. Basic Concepts allows a progression from easier to more difficult concepts by dividing the concepts into Level 1 and Level 2.
Literature (The New Critical Idiom)
Literature, the latest volume in the highly successful New Critical Idiom series, is at once a compact mine of information about the development and more recent discrediting of the concept of "literature," and a reflection on the contemporary nature, place and function of what the literary might mean for us today. Comprehensive in scope, it offers a concise history of the consitution of a canonic concept of "literature" from its earliest origins to the orthodoxies that occurred through the later nineteenth-century to the middle of the twentieth. It also traces its dismantling from the late-60s onward. Finally, the book attemps to recuperate a notion of "the literary" by way of a series of readings of diverse texts. It is an excellent primer for anyone who loves the written word.
Freedom: The Philosophy of Liberation
(8 lectures, 45 minutes/lecture)
Course No. 449
Taught by Dennis Dalton
Barnard College/Columbia University
Ph.D., University of London
Professor Dennis Dalton explores the meaning of freedom, perhaps the most powerful of the ideas that have inspired mankind throughout the ages.
Drawing on his work as a scholar of Gandhi and of Indian political thought, he examines the progress of both personal and political freedom.
And though the idea of freedom is, for many people, embodied by the United States, the concept is far older than this country. It is by no means an exclusively American product.
Indeed, the concept of liberation has long been the subject of learned thought, stretching as far back as the time of Plato and as far away as ancient India.
Professor Dalton's lectures are a guided tour along the byways of the philosophy of liberation, beginning with its ancient roots and ending in 20th-century America.
