The In-Between in Javanese...

Sumarsam

This book is the first comprehensive overview of Javanese performing arts from their origins to their dynamic present. Renowned scholar and musician Sumarsam draws from a lifetime of immersion in both wayang and gamelan to guide readers through the concept of the "in-between," revealing how the interplay of dualisms—myth and history, sacred and secular, personal and cultural—forms the bedrock of Javanese performance. Rigorously researched historical case studies reveal the intricate relationship between histories and mythologies in Java. Wayang, accompanied by gamelan, is a multimedia performance imbued with rich historical, aesthetic, religious, and emotional associations. Sumarsam delves into this intricate, profound, and ever-evolving art form, exploring its diverse manifestations and venues, from courtly village entertainment-cum-ritual to palace-based aesthetic expressions of cultural proficiency; from coastal mercantile entrepots to the verdant wet rice terraces of Java; from colonial plantation and textile factory cultures to communities centered around contemporary industrial estates and creative economy initiatives. An essential resource for scholars, musicians, and enthusiasts of wayang and gamelan, The In-Between in Javanese Performing Arts offers an unparalleled immersion into the heart of traditional Javanese performing arts, revealing their profound impact on Javanese culture, identity, and artistic expression.

The Secure Soul - Finding Inner...

Dr Alison Cook

A secure soul is built from the inside out. This book will guide you through the inner work of restoring your own sense of safety and trust—anchored in God's unshakable love—so that your foundation for all other connections becomes steady and strong. From this place, you can approach every relationship, every loss, and every new beginning with confidence. Even when trust has been broken externally, it can still be anchored securely within.
The ache of disconnection isn't only about feeling unseen by a parent, distant from a partner, or excluded by a friend. It's not just a byproduct of busy lives or too many notifications. It runs deeper. It's a spiritual ache that reminds us: we long for a connection that reaches beneath our defenses and restores us from the inside out.
Attachment isn't just something that happens between people—it's something that also happens within yourself. The same dynamics of fear and safety, pursuit and withdrawal, need and shame, get played out inside your own inner world.
When we begin to notice, tend, and nourish that inner ecosystem—gently, patiently, and in the presence of something greater than ourselves—we begin to re-cultivate something sacred: A home within ourselves. A secure base from the inside out. And a connectedness with God.
In The Secure Soul, Dr. Cook shows you how to:practice the ongoing rhythm of connection through learning how to recognize distance and be equipped to reconnect to the center of loving presence.recognize—the moment when you've shifted out of connection into anxiety, overwhelmedness, fear, distance, or shut down.return—to the sacred center within, to God's presence, to Love itself.identify the controller, shadow, and younger parts of yourself that make up the landscape of your soul.cultivate an inner sense of belonging and connectedness by diagnosing where you have become disconnected from your own soul.
Dr. Cook paints an intimate picture of what secure attachment can look like in your real life—not as a psychological label, but as an intimate invitation that is alive in every relationship, every silence, every longing, always unfolding in every moment you're alive. And it starts not only in the space between us, but deep inside your own soul.

Learning to Be Literate - More...

Deborah MacPhee, Patricia Paugh

There is not one right way to teach a child to read. 
 
 
 
Recent media stories about education have featured the "Science of Reading," whose proponents typically present the systematic teaching of phonics as a one-size-fits-all method that guarantees reading success for all students. But as literacy scholars Patricia Paugh and Deborah MacPhee demonstrate, the decoding of words is only one of many skills that are central to an effective early literacy education. 
 
 
 
In Learning to Be Literate, they present a four-part framework for active literacy learning that eschews oppositional arguments about different approaches, and instead situates children as meaning makers: the whole point of being literate. There is no single or simple solution that will fit every child. But by using the ALL framework to inform instruction, educators can help young learners think deeply about ideas and language at the same time as they learn to work out the sounds and symbol systems of language.
