Therapy Across Culture
`This is an important book which has a broader relevance to psychotherapists than its title suggests.In an academically rigorous style... and drawing on her own experience as an anthropologist and systemic (family) therapist, Inga-Britt Krause shows how ethnographic methodology (fieldwork) and its research findings can be drawn on to radically deepen our clinical insight into "difference"...Krause is both challenging and refreshing in her approach.She goes beyond asserting the need for insights to be gleaned from anthropology in cross-cultural clinical work to suggest that psychoanalysis itself could also benefit...Thinking about her book has focused my interest in the cultural dimensions of clinical work, and in the role of kinship, taboo and ritual, in the inter and intraprofessional conflicts which permeate our profession' - British Journal of PsychotherapyThis groundbreaking book demonstrates the importance of cross-cultural communication to psychotherapy, psychoanalysis and counselling.It gives an introduction to anthropological issues which are relevant to cross-cultural work, examining practical as well as conceptual aspects of culture.The book provides an overview and gives examples on which clinicians may draw to enhance their understanding of their clients, and which will help anthropologists to understand and interpret the personal circumstances of their informants. Complex theories from ethnography and anthropology are explained and made accessible, while kinship, attachment and emotion, ritual and taboo are explored, illuminating how the cultural content of patterns of interaction and behaviour are expressed in ideas, feelings, attitudes and inclinations.Finally, it is argued that cross-cultural communication must originate in the therapist or anthropologist taking responsibility for becoming aware of his or her own assumptions as a starting point for cross-cultural work.

Southern History across the Color Line
The color line, once all too solid in southern public life, still exists in the study of southern history.As distinguished historian Nell Irvin Painter notes, we often still write about the South as though people of different races occupied entirely different spheres.In truth, although blacks and whites were expected to remain in their assigned places in the southern social hierarchy throughout the nineteenth century and much of the twentieth century, their lives were thoroughly entangled.In this powerful collection of pathbreaking essays, Painter reaches across the color line to examine how race, gender, class, and individual subjectivity shaped the lives of black and white women and men in the nineteenth- and twentieth-century South.She explores such themes as interracial sex, white supremacy, and the physical and psychological violence of slavery, using insights gleaned from psychology and feminist social science as well as social, cultural, and intellectual history.The book illustrates both the breadth of Painter's interests and the originality of her intellectual contributions.This edition features refreshed essays and a new preface that sheds light on the development of Painter's thought and our continued struggles with racism in the twenty-first century.

Family Oral History Across the World
Family Oral History Across the World presents a process for memorializing family histories, bringing together established oral history standards, exploratory research, and narrative data analysis. Based on and using a prequestionnaire and over 40 recorded interviews with people from across six continents, the analysis system used in the book presents material from these interviews that brings alive the experience of the family history journey.One of the guiding principles is to encourage readers to interview family members, but also others outside the family unit, and to produce a family history in whatever format works.The book illustrates this through the inclusion of many unusual formats and stories uncovered.The book is divided into a number of themes that emerged through the analysis of numerical questionnaire and narrative interview data.Parts I, II, and III cover changing family demography, case studies, and factors such as memory, emotion, and ethics.Part IV offers a pliable process and practice guide with input and examples from interviews.It also discusses developing approaches to presenting oral histories from both oral historians and other interviewers and writers, such as journalists. With case studies as well as example guidelines and templates, this volume is ideal both for academics interested in family history as well as professional genealogists and families themselves.

How could the megalithic culture be so widespread across the world?
The megalithic culture could have been so widespread across the world due to the development of similar building techniques and cultural diffusion. The use of large stones for construction was a practical and durable method that could have been independently developed in different regions. Additionally, the spread of megalithic culture could have been facilitated by trade, migration, and the exchange of ideas between different communities. It is also possible that the use of megalithic structures served similar cultural or religious purposes, leading to their widespread adoption across different societies.

What does the browsing history look like across multiple user accounts?
Browsing history across multiple user accounts typically appears as separate lists of websites visited, with each account's history being unique to that specific user. Each user's browsing history is usually stored separately to maintain privacy and security. This means that one user cannot access or view the browsing history of another user account on the same device.

What comes across better?
In general, clear and concise communication tends to come across better than long-winded or confusing messages. When information is presented in a straightforward and easy-to-understand manner, it is more likely to be well-received and effectively understood by the audience. Additionally, being respectful, empathetic, and considerate in communication can also help messages come across better, as it fosters a positive and engaging interaction. Ultimately, the key is to tailor the communication style to the audience and purpose to ensure the message is delivered effectively.

Metaphor in Language and Culture across World Englishes
This book advances and broadens the scope of research on conceptual metaphor at the nexus of language and culture by exploring metaphor and figurative language as a characteristic of the many Englishes that have developed in a wide range of geographic, socio-historical and cultural settings around the world. In line with the interdisciplinary breadth of this endeavour, the contributions are grounded in Cognitive (Socio)Linguistics, Conceptual Metaphor Theory, and Cultural Linguistics.Drawing on different research methodologies, including corpus linguistics, elicitation techniques, and interviews, chapters analyse a variety of naturalistic data and text types, such as online language, narratives, political speeches and literary works.Examining both the cultural conceptualisations underlying the use of figurative language and the linguistic-cultural specificity of metaphor and its variation, the studies are presented in contexts of both language contact and second language usage.Adding to the debate on the interplay of universal and culture-specific grounding of conceptual metaphor, Metaphor in Language and Culture across World Englishes advances research in a previously neglected sphere of study in the field of World Englishes.

Jewish Emancipation : A History across Five Centuries
The first comprehensive history of how Jews became citizens in the modern worldFor all their unquestionable importance, the Holocaust and the founding of the State of Israel now loom so large in modern Jewish history that we have mostly lost sight of the fact that they are only part of—and indeed reactions to—the central event of that history: emancipation.In this book, David Sorkin seeks to reorient Jewish history by offering the first comprehensive account in any language of the process by which Jews became citizens with civil and political rights in the modern world.Ranging from the mid-sixteenth century to the beginning of the twenty-first, Jewish Emancipation tells the ongoing story of how Jews have gained, kept, lost, and recovered rights in Europe, North Africa, the Middle East, the United States, and Israel. Emancipation, Sorkin shows, was not a one-time or linear event that began with the Enlightenment or French Revolution and culminated with Jews' acquisition of rights in Central Europe in 1867–71 or Russia in 1917.Rather, emancipation was and is a complex, multidirectional, and ambiguous process characterized by deflections and reversals, defeats and successes, triumphs and tragedies.For example, American Jews mobilized twice for emancipation: in the nineteenth century for political rights, and in the twentieth for lost civil rights.Similarly, Israel itself has struggled from the start to institute equality among its heterogeneous citizens. By telling the story of this foundational but neglected event, Jewish Emancipation reveals the lost contours of Jewish history over the past half millennium.

Can fractions be simplified across?
Fractions can be simplified across operations such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. When fractions are added or subtracted, they must have a common denominator before simplifying. When fractions are multiplied or divided, they can be simplified by canceling out common factors in the numerator and denominator. Simplifying fractions across operations helps to make calculations easier and the final result more concise.

'How do I get across?'
To get across, you can use a bridge, a boat, or a ferry if you need to cross a body of water. If you are crossing a road, you can use a crosswalk or pedestrian bridge. If you are in a natural environment, you can look for a shallow part of the water to wade through, or use stepping stones if available. Always make sure to follow any signs or instructions for crossing safely.
