Add to basketPaperback. Condition: New. Third Edition. Remote and rugged, Michigan's Upper Peninsula (fondly known as ""the U.P."") has been home to a rich variety of indigenous peoples and Old World immigrants - a heritage deeply embedded in today's ""Yooper"" culture. Ojibwes, French Canadians, Finns, Cornish, Poles, Italians, Slovenians, and others have all lived here, attracted to the area by its timber, mineral ore, and fishing grounds. Mixing local happenings with supernatural tales and creatively adapting traditional stories to suit changing audiences, the diverse inhabitants of the U.P. have created a wealth of lore populated with tricksters, outlaws, cunning trappers and poachers, eccentric bosses of the mines and lumber camps, ""bloodstoppers"" gifted with the lifesaving power to stop the flow of blood, ""bearwalkers"" able to assume the shape of bears, and more.For folklorist Richard M. Dorson, who ventured into the region in the late 1940s, the U.P. was a living laboratory, a storyteller's paradise. ""Bloodstoppers and Bearwalkers"", based on his extensive fieldwork in the area, is his richest and most enduring work. This new edition, with a critical introduction and an appendix of additional tales selected by James P. Leary, restores and expands Dorson's classic contribution to American folklore. Engaging and well informed, the book presents and ponders the folk narratives of the region's loggers, miners, lake sailors, trappers, and townfolk. Unfolding the variously peculiar and raucous tales of the U.P., ""Bloodstoppers and Bearwalkers"" reveals a vital component of Upper Midwest culture and a fascinating cross-section of American society.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. From the organization of private businesses and public services to the optimization of everyday life, management is a ubiquitous term today. Denoting efficiency and control, management has become a catchall term for successful living in neoliberal times. The term is so ubiquitous that it often avoids scrutiny outside of business schools and organizational theory. As the essays collected in Fictions of Management show, however, management has a history closely bound up with cultural practices. While the meaning of management has been critically negotiated in literature since the industrial revolution, management theory in turn draws on cultural resources for animating technical rationality with engaging stories and corporate visions. Tracing the relationship between management and fiction in the United States, where the mutual influence between the two has been the greatest and shaped management culture globally, the contributors to this volume provide a unique perspective on changing forms of management through the lens of American literature and culture. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
