I raised an addict – what could I have done differently? | Heroin. Stop the Silence. Speak the Truth. It has been a very interesting month. Since my first post I have connected with old high school friends who have active or recovering addicts in their families. I have been contacted by people who are living the nightmare of Addiction as parents, spouses, children and friends of addicts as well as addicts themselves. Many have shared powerful stories of recovery. I have written or spoken the words ‘I am sorry for your loss’ too many times to count, though we really do need to keep counting… Every person we lose leaves a gaping hole in the world. I did not intend to start a blog, and I am a bit unsure of where to take it from here. This is a new journey and I’m glad for the company of all who would like to walk this path with me. Today’s thought: What could I have done differently? This question haunted me for many, many years. Yes, I should have let him fall on his face when he was little. In all honesty, that is the one thing I feel I could have changed. Forewarned is forearmed.

Vintage Library Ads From A Bygone Era Popular website Brain Pickings has published a collation of vintage library ads and posters from a bygone era. Some common traits amongst these ads are in its retro design. The obvious copywriting and loud, enthusiastic color schemes and layouts are so bad that it’s good . In an era where literacy rates were significantly lower than today's, and where an education meant that you were guaranteed some job security, libraries were an institution held in respected regard. That means these ads were not only advertising a product or service, but something that would bring you an actual benefit of some social good. View these vintage gems below: [via Brain Pickings ]
Creativity 2.0: See How Easily You Can Teach Tone I slammed my hand down on the desk. "What are you doing?" I bellowed. Frozen, terrified students stared at me, looked at their classmates and back to me. I stood up, waited another moment and then asked, "How did my tone affect your mood?" A collective sigh lifted the tension, numerous hands went to chests and a few "Oh my Gods" slipped into the growing murmur of relief. That's how we started talking about the concept of tone and mood. That was about two weeks ago. Students in sixth grade have to analyze pieces of literature for the tone the author used in a particular piece of writing. This has been a difficult concept for me to teach in the past. Analysis of Art - Transmediation To help children develop their creativity I look for ways to blend my content with other disciplines.

Once Upon a Time, Vintage Reproduction, WPA Poster: Office Products The European Bildungsroman | Department of English and Comparative Literature What is a Bildungsroman? In my examination, I will attempt to answer this misleadingly simple question. The term was suggested by Friedrich von Blanckenburg's discussion of Bildung in his 1774 "Essay on the Novel," coined by Karl Morgenstern in the 1820s, and popularized by Wilhelm Dilthey in his 1870 essay on Friedrick Schleiermacher. Therefore, when we 20th Century readers talk of the Bildungsroman, as we often do, we employ a critical lens honed in 19th Century Germany to treat a genre begun in the 18th Century. My major field, European Bildungsroman, includes novels that could serve as examples of these various forms: Rousseau's Emile, and even Fielding's Tom Jones as novels of education; Diderot's Rameau's Nephew, James' Roderick Hudson, and Joyce's Portrait as novels about artists; Austen's Emma, and even James' Ambassadors as novels of development. My particular approach to defining the genre, however, returns to Dilthey's original definition.
