Sebastian Cramer - Sebastian Cramer - Bog - Hatje Cantz - Plusbog.dk

Although it is one of the oldest techniques in photography, stereoscopy receives little attention in contemporary photography. Wrongly so, as the timeless works in this book show. For nine years now, Sebastian Cramer has been working on his project Two Views, which is presented in book form for the first time in this volume. Its focus is on images of plants that look like nothing ever seen before. Viewed through 3D glasses, the seemingly familiar natural forms take on a thoroughly unique quality: delicate and fragile, sometimes alien, appear the leaves and blossoms as they form into a photographic sculpture. Two Views on Plants is a book about visual perception and the experience of space.

Incurable?Optimist - Jennifer Cramer Miller - Bog - She Writes Press - Plusbog.dk

2024 International Impact Book Awards Winner: Family and Medical Book of Excellence Award Winner: Family Publishers Weekly, starred review, PW Book of the Week, August 2023 At twenty-two, Jennifer Cramer-Miller was thrilled with her new job, charming boyfriend, and Seattle apartment. Then she received a devastating autoimmune diagnosis - and suddenly, rather than planning for a bright future, she found herself soaking a hospital pillow with tears and grappling with words like ''progressive'' and ''incurable.'' That day, Cramer-Miller unwillingly crossed over from wellness to chronic illness - from thriving to kidney failure. Her chances of survival hinged upon the expertise of doctors, the generosity of strangers, and the benevolence of loved ones. But what kind of life would that be? Spanning two-plus decades, this family love story explores loss and acceptance, moving forward with uncertainty, and forging a path to joy. Four kidney transplants later, Cramer-Miller is here to shine a bright light on people helping people in difficult times with a story that will make you want to hug the humans you love. Because sometimes it''s the sorrows that threaten to pull us apart that ultimately unite us in hope.

Medieval Fantasy as Performance - Michael A. Cramer - Bog - Scarecrow Press - Plusbog.dk

Medieval Fantasy as Performance - Michael A. Cramer - Bog - Scarecrow Press - Plusbog.dk

In this book, Michael Cramer views the Society for Creative Anachronism (SCA), an organization that studies and recreates the middle ages, as a case study for a growing fascination with medieval fantasy in popular culture. He explores the act of medieval re-creation as performance by focusing on the SCA, describing the group''s activities, investigating its place in popular culture, and looking at the SCA not so much as a historical society but as an on-going work of performance art; a postmodern counter-culture riff on what it means to be "medieval." Cramer examines the group''s activities, from persona and character development to theatrical performance and personal interaction; from the complex official ceremonies to full contact armored combat with mock broadswords. He explores the SCA in detail to discover how its members adapt and employ ideas about the Middle Ages in performance, ritual reenactment, living history, and re-creation, analyzing the performance of identity through ritual, sport, drama, and personal interaction, and he focuses on the reconstruction of the medieval "king game," a game in which a mock king is chosen to reign over a mock court. The book also studies various ideas about medievalism, including the contrast between reenactment and re-creation, and places these activities in the context of contemporary American society. With three appendixes, a bibliography, and a selection of photos, Cramer demonstrates how and why medieval fantasy is increasingly used in popular culture and analyzes the dissatisfaction with contemporary culture that leads people into these realms of fantasy.

Pregnant with the Stars - Renee Ann Cramer - Bog - Stanford University Press - Plusbog.dk

Pregnant with the Stars - Renee Ann Cramer - Bog - Stanford University Press - Plusbog.dk

"Check out that baby bump!" Online and print magazines, television shows, and personal blogs are awash with gossip and speculation about pregnant celebrities. What drives our cultural obsession with celebrity baby bumps? Pregnant with the Stars examines the American fascination with, and judgment of, celebrity pregnancy, and exposes how our seemingly innocent interest in "baby bumps" actually reinforces troubling standards about femininity, race, and class, while increasing the surveillance and regulation of all women in our society. This book charts how the American understanding of pregnancy has evolved by examining pop culture coverage of the pregnant celebrity body. Investigating and comparing the media coverage of pregnant celebrities, including Jennifer Garner, Angelina Jolie, Beyoncé Knowles, Kristen Bell, M.I.A., Jodie Foster, and Mila Kunis, Renée Cramer shows us how women are categorized and defined by their pregnancies. Their stories provide a paparazzi-sized lens through which we can interpret a complex set of social and legal regulations of pregnant women. Cramer exposes how cultural ideas like the "rockin'' post-baby body" are not only unattainable; they are a means of social control. Combining cultural and legal analysis, Pregnant with the Stars uncovers a world where pregnant celebrities are governed and controlled alongside the recent, and troubling, proliferation of restrictive laws aimed at women in the realm of reproductive justice and freedom. Cramer asks each reader and cultural consumer to recognize that the seeing, judging, and discussion of the "baby bump" isn''t merely frivolous celebrity gossip—it is an act of surveillance, commodification, and control.

Birthing a Movement - Renee Ann Cramer - Bog - Stanford University Press - Plusbog.dk

Birthing a Movement - Renee Ann Cramer - Bog - Stanford University Press - Plusbog.dk

Rich, personal stories shed light on midwives at the frontier of women's reproductive rights. Midwives in the United States live and work in a complex regulatory environment that is a direct result of state and medical intervention into women's reproductive capacity. In Birthing a Movement, Renée Ann Cramer draws on over a decade of ethnographic and archival research to examine the interactions of law, politics, and activism surrounding midwifery care. Framed by gripping narratives from midwives across the country, she parses out the often-paradoxical priorities with which they must engage—seeking formal professionalization, advocating for reproductive justice, and resisting state-centered approaches. Currently, professional midwives are legal and regulated in their practice in 32 states and illegal in eight, where their practice could bring felony convictions and penalties that include imprisonment. In the remaining ten states, Certified Professional Midwives (CPMs) are unregulated, but nominally legal. By studying states where CPMs have differing legal statuses, Cramer makes the case that midwives and their clients engage in various forms of mobilization—at times simultaneous, and at times inconsistent—to facilitate access to care, autonomy in childbirth, and the articulation of women's authority in reproduction. This book brings together literatures not frequently in conversation with one another, on regulation, mobilization, health policy, and gender, offering a multifaceted view of the experiences and politics of American midwifery, and promising rich insights to a wide array of scholars, activists, healthcare professionals alike.

Ruths Hotel - Jack Cramer - Bog - DreamLitt - Plusbog.dk

Ruths Hotel - Jack Cramer - Bog - DreamLitt - Plusbog.dk

Historien om Ruths Hotel startede for mere end 100 år siden og er på mange måder en fortælling om Skagen selv. I dag byder det idylliske badehotel traditionen tro sine gæster velkommen i vindblæste Gammel Skagen, blandt karakteristisk smukke, gule huse badet i det navnkundige Skagenslys. Under ledelse af køkkenchef Jack Cramer, der i 2022 blev nomineret til Årets kokkeprofil ved Den Danske Spiseguide, i samarbejde med sin lidenskabelige køkkenstab, er hotellet i dag kendt for de velrenommerede og nyskabende smagseventyr, som hver dag finder vej til gæsternes borde på Ruths Brasserie og Okê. Bag de hjertevarme serveringer bærer Jack en kompromisløs vision for badehotellets gastronomi, og her udvælges kun de bedste smage og råvarer, hvad end de bringes hjem fra fjerne egne eller lokale landmænd – en vision, Jack har opbygget gennem lange rejser verden rundt, og som i dag varetages i fællesskab med nøje udvalgte samarbejdspartnere. Et ophold på Ruths Hotel er mere end blot en ferie, og for mange er stedet så kærkomment, at når først man har slået sine folder i Dagmars gamle stuer, bliver det uundgåeligt ikke at lægge anker hver sommer. Dette er historien om Ruths Hotel – en historie lige dele om dette særlige sted og de mennesker, der udgør dets sjæl, og en historie fortalt gennem smage, dufte og uforfalsket kulinarisk kærlighed. Velkommen til Ruths Hotel.

Civil War is Not a Stupid Thing - Christoper Cramer - Bog - C Hurst & Co Publishers Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Civil War is Not a Stupid Thing - Christoper Cramer - Bog - C Hurst & Co Publishers Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Why is there so much violence in the developing countries? What does it have to do with economic development? What does it have to do with globalisation? In addressing these and other questions, Christopher Cramer takes a broad comparative approach, from recent wars, insurgencies and violence in Angola, Brazil, and Iraq to the American Civil War, showing how wars have been paid for throughout history. He also compares post-conflict reconstruction efforts in Mozambique and Iraq with how nineteenth-century America and twentieth-century Europe rebuilt their shattered societies and economies. "Civil War is Not a Stupid Thing" takes issue with two common perspectives on violence and war. The first is the liberal interpretation, according to which war is exclusively negative in its effects and peace is easily achieved through democratisation and free trade. In this view, modern liberal market democracies have outgrown violence, and only resort to it in self-defence. The second is a romantic, utopian view of violence. Transposed into political rhetoric, these two views are often directly opposed, as they are nowadays in Iraq and in the ''War on Terror''. Cramer''s book forges an alternative way of understanding the role of violence in the transition to capitalism and a global economy.
