Beschreibung

Language Power Shift explores how language has become a focal point in the LGBTQ+ inclusion movement. It examines the evolution of LGBTQ+-inclusive language across various sectors, from media to education, highlighting the power dynamics at play. Language, often viewed as a tool for unity, can also marginalize; this book argues that adopting inclusive language represents a fundamental shift, challenging traditional assumptions and fostering a more equitable society.

 
The book traces the historical trajectory of LGBTQ+ terminology, revealing how terms have transformed from clinical labels to reclaimed identities. It also shows how inclusive language in policy and legislation can empower LGBTQ+ individuals. By integrating perspectives from linguistics, sociology, and political science, the book provides a comprehensive understanding of the forces shaping language use. It progresses from establishing a theoretical framework to analyzing the historical evolution of terminology, examining policy implementation, and exploring inclusive language in education, ultimately offering recommendations for navigating controversies.

 
This book stands apart through its intersectional approach, recognizing how experiences are shaped by various social categories. Supported by linguistic analysis, policy documents, and original research, including surveys with LGBTQ+ individuals, educators, and policymakers, it offers valuable insights for educators, policymakers, and anyone seeking to understand the power of language in shaping social attitudes.

    Ghost Writing Gold: Strike Gold When You Learn How to Hire the Best Ghostwriter For You! 
    When you hire a writer for your eBook, what you are doing is enlisting the services of a ghostwriter. A ghostwriter is a writer who publishes under someone else's name, with the consent of both parties. Traditionally, ghostwriters have been and are still today hired by celebrities to write autobiographies when the celebrities are not talented writers. Ghostwriters also sometimes create works for well-known authors, such as Tom Clancy. This practice is done for business reasons, because the author's name alone will sell the books, no matter who actually wrote them. 
    In this audiobook, you will learn why eBooks are great ways to earn money these days and if you don’t have a talent for writing, you can employ the services of ghost writers that will help you write them. 
    This audiobook will cover the following topics: 
    - How to Select a Great Topic 
    - Where to Find Great Writers 
    - How to Choose the Best Writer For Your Project 
    - And many more! 
    Ultimately you will own the copyright of what the ghostwriter wrote, and you can sell the eBook as many times as you like. If it sounds like a pretty nice arrangement, it is. It's all completely legal and commonly done. To learn more, scroll up and click “add to cart” now!

    Lebanon is often described as “the most successful failed state of the 21st century”. This irony perfectly describes the reality of the country, which harbors vital forces and remarkable economic and cultural potential, but which suffers from extreme and inextricable violence. 
    This book, which reads like a thriller, traces this turbulent history since the 19th century: that of a country condemned to constant struggle, constantly buffeted by external interventions, from the Ottomans to the Iranians, via the Syrians, the Israelis, the British and the Americans, not forgetting France, which continues to play a pre-eminent role. 
    Although Lebanon, the gateway to the Middle East and hostage to international rivalries, has managed, despite everything, to survive, and, like Sisyphus, to heal its internal dissensions in order to constantly climb back up the slope, it has nevertheless been hit in recent years by a succession of unprecedented crises, with a financial and economic collapse that has brought the country to its knees, This has been compounded by a huge influx of Syrian migrants fleeing the war in their homeland, equivalent to half the Lebanese population, and topped off by a particularly destructive confrontation between Israel and Hezbollah, which has ravaged whole swathes of Lebanon. 
    What are the possible solutions for Lebanon's future? What scenarios are on the horizon? These are the answers that this book also seeks to provide.

    This book is an extended study, in the Post-Reformation period, of the impact of the Gaels in the west of Scotland and the north of Ireland on each other’s religious heritage. Beginning half a century before the plantation of Ulster, Missions to the Gaels illuminates the origins of the sectarian divisions in Northern Ireland. The research deals with both Protestants and Catholics, rather than treating only one denomination in isolation. The author explores the intriguing situation whereby Scottish Gaelic-speaking ministers laid the foundations of the embryonic Protestant Church in Ireland, while at the same time Irish-speaking priests were almost exclusively responsible for the reintroduction of Catholicism to the Highlands and Islands of Scotland.  The range of this book extends beyond narrow ecclesiastical issues: it reveals the broader political and cultural forces that determined the Gaels’ choice of religious alignment and traces the effects of these over two centuries of turbulent change in Gaelic society.

She is famous for her works of fiction, which include The Age of Innocence, The House of Mirth, and Ethan Frome.

    2. How do I turn thoughts and ideas into words? 
    3. How do I make my characters seem real? 
    4. How do I write something original when so much has already been written? 
    5. How do I tell a compelling story? 
    Wharton offers advice specific to writing short stories and writing novels. She pulls insights from other great writers along the way and concludes with an in-depth analysis of French novelist Marcel Proust. 
     
    The Writing of Fiction is a chance to mingle with renowned writers and find your own voice. Consider it Wharton’s personal invitation to discover your own potential and jump-start your creative process.
