In this selection of Robert Thorpe's poetry, he uses
thought-provoking and heartwarming imagery to mirror his profound
connections to his faith in God, his Texas home, his country, and
the relationships he's experienced throughout his life.
From "This Valued and Rare Treat," a romantic ode to the poet's
first true love to "Slow Is its Ride," a jaunty tribute to a
respected member of the police force, each poem in "Forever More,
Soul & Spiritual" is a touching composition woven from the
threads of one man's common, yet meaningful life. Whether
boisterously proclaiming the assets of an old-fashioned Texan
barbecue, or painting a sober portrayal of the death of a beloved
soul mate, each verse offers up a beautiful scene that will strike
an emotional chord with any reader. With compelling imagery and
unforgettable emotion, "Forever More, Soul & Spiritual" takes
the reader on a deep journey into the heart of one ordinary man
from a small town in Texas.
"Preserve and seek your dreams, as I have with my writings, for
if they are noble and of God, they will be fulfilled," Thorpe
writes. Sometimes somber, never dreary, Thorpe has painted a poetic
landscape that portrays a life rich in spirituality, hopefulness,
and love.
This book is open access under a CC BY 4.0 license. This book
explores how the socially disputed period of the Cold War is
remembered in today's history classroom. Applying a diverse set of
methodological strategies, the authors map the dividing lines in
and between memory cultures across the globe, paying special
attention to the impact the crisis-driven age of our present has on
images of the past. Authors analysing educational media point to
ambivalence, vagueness and contradictions in textbook narratives
understood to be echoes of societal and academic controversies.
Others focus on teachers and the history classroom, showing how
unresolved political issues create tensions in history education.
They render visible how teachers struggle to handle these
challenges by pretending that what they do is 'just history'. The
contributions to this book unveil how teachers, backgrounding the
political inherent in all memory practices, often nourish the
illusion that the history in which they are engaged is all about
addressing the past with a reflexive and disciplined approach.
