Celeste

Resumen del Ebook

Libro Celeste

I was born into the family of William Julius and Emilie (Baudat) Gayle on August 30, 1919 They decided to name me Luella Celestine for my two grandmothers...Luella Love (Sanders) Gayle and Celestine (Pichon) Baudat. I did not like the name and was very happy that they decided to call me “Celeste.” At the time of my birth, my brother Milton was almost two, having been born September 2, 1917. Unfortunately, he died with Diphtheria on December 11, 1921, when I was only two. Mom and Dad had previously lost a son, Dalton, who died April 13, 1915 at the age of 16 months. He was born December 8, 1913. I was born in my parents’ home on Melton Street in Magnolia, Texas. The house was demolished in 1988. Ty (grandson) came over and told me about it and he thought it was terrible that they were tearing down a landmark where his grandmother was born. Mom was very proud of her little home as evidenced by notes she had written on the back of pictures she had taken to send to her friends and relatives. My Dad was depot agent and telegrapher for the Missouri Pacific Railroad at the time of my birth, and retired in that position. He was truly a “railroad man” and couldn’t stay in the house when he heard a train whistle.

Libro Investigaciones-vidas en educación

En muchos contextos académicos se mantiene la hegemonía intelectual como omnipresencia y lugar de superioridad del pensamiento científico, excluyendo saberes constituidos en otros tiempos y comunidades fuera del alcance de la racionalidad moderna. Este libro es una recuperación de la experiencia compartida entre tres comunidades de Chile, Argentina y Brasil, desmarcada de los tradicionales y rígidos límites de la investigación en educación. En medio de la matriz normalizada del saber y del conocer, caracterizada por el realismo epistémico y la pretensión de la objetiva neutralidad,...

Marcello Macchia è nato all'ospedale di Vasto nel 1978, partorito da sua mamma.

Nessuno dei due poteva immaginare che, da allora, non si sarebbero più separati, e insieme avrebbero creato sketch, trailer, serie tv e film che li avrebbero consacrati tra i protagonisti della scena comica italiana. In questo libro Marcello Macchia e Maccio Capatonda si alternano per raccontare la loro storia, dai ...
