Beschreibung

The languages of the Americas are a tapestry of diverse tongues, a symphony of voices that have echoed across the centuries. From the ancient languages of the indigenous peoples to the languages of the European colonizers, from the African languages brought by enslaved people to the Asian languages spoken by immigrants, the languages of the Americas tell a story of migration, conquest, and cultural exchange.

In this book, we explore the rich linguistic heritage of the Americas, from the northern reaches of Canada to the southern tip of Chile. We trace the origins of the various languages spoken in the region, examining how they have evolved over time and how they have been shaped by the cultures of the people who speak them. We also consider the challenges facing the languages of the Americas, from the decline of indigenous languages to the spread of English as a global lingua franca.

  • Why Intelligent People Do Stupid Things - The Paradox of Smart Decision-Making - cover

    Why Intelligent People Do Stupid...

    John Harpoon

    Intelligence is often seen as the key to making sound decisions, yet many highly intelligent individuals find themselves making choices that defy logic and reason. This paradox is at the heart of why even the smartest people can sometimes act in ways that are seemingly irrational. Despite possessing vast knowledge, sharp problem-solving skills, and an ability to think critically, intelligent people often fall victim to cognitive biases, emotional triggers, and societal pressures that lead them to make poor decisions. Understanding why this happens requires an exploration into the intricate relationship between intelligence and decision-making. 
      
    At the core of this paradox lies the idea that rationality and intelligence do not always go hand in hand. While intelligence may increase the ability to process information and analyze complex scenarios, it does not always shield individuals from the cognitive biases that distort perception and judgement. In fact, many intelligent individuals are even more susceptible to these biases because they rely heavily on their analytical skills, assuming that their logic will always lead them to the right conclusion. However, this overreliance can blind them to the emotional and social factors that influence decision-making, causing them to overlook key details or make choices based on faulty assumptions. 
      
    Furthermore, decision-making is not solely a rational process; emotions play a crucial role in guiding our actions, and they can often override logic. Intelligent individuals are not immune to emotional influences such as stress, fear, or the desire for instant gratification. These emotions can cloud judgement, leading to impulsive decisions or the failure to consider long-term consequences. This is particularly true in high-pressure situations where the stakes are high, and the need to make quick decisions can push even the most intelligent person into making mistakes.

    How dull plays are killing theatre and what we can do about it.
    		 
    Had I become disenchanted with the form I had once fallen so madly in love with as a pubescent, pimple-faced suburban homo with braces? Maybe theatre was like an all-consuming high school infatuation that now, ten years later, I saw as the closeted balding guy with a beer gut he’d become. There were of course those rare moments of transcendencethat kept me coming back. But why did they come so few and far between?
    		 
    A lot of plays are dull. And one dull play, it seems, can turn us off theatre for good. Playwright and theatre director Jordan Tannahill takes in the spectrum of English-language drama – from the flashiest of Broadway spectacles to productions mounted in scrappy storefront theatres – to consider where lifeless plays come from and why they persist. Having travelled the globe talking to theatre artists, critics, passionate patrons and the theatrically disillusioned, Tannahill addresses what he considers the culture of ‘risk aversion’ paralyzing the form.
    		 
    Theatre of the Unimpressed is Tannahill’s wry and revelatory personal reckoning with the discipline he’s dedicated his life to, and a roadmap for a vital twenty-first-century theatre – one that apprehends the value of ‘liveness’ in our mediated age and the necessity for artistic risk and its attendant failures. In considering dramaturgy, programming and alternative models for producing, Tannahill aims to turn theatre from an obligation to a destination.
