Book Description:

January 1, 1998 5 and upK and up
As six-year-old Emma anticipates the birth of her new baby brother or sister, she vividly imagines all of the things they can do together. Emma feels ready to be a big sister! Then when the baby is born, her dad tells her that it's a boy and he has something called Down syndrome. Finally she asks, "If Isaac has this Down thing, then what can't he do?". Her dad thinks about it, then tells her that as long as they are patient with him, and help him when he needs it, there probably isn't anything Isaac can't do. In this touching story, Emma helps her father as much as he helps her to realise that Isaac is the baby they dreamed of. The book concludes with a set of commonly asked questions about Down syndrome with answers for children and how it might affect their sibling and family. For ages 3-7.

Osip Mandelstam and the Modernist Creation of TraditionOsip Mandelstam and the Modernist Creation of Tradition
Publication Date: November 14, 1994If modernism marked, as some critics claim, an "apocalypse of cultural community, " then Osip Mandelstam (1891-1938) must rank among its most representative figures. Born to Central European Jews in Warsaw on the cusp of the modern age, he could claim neither Russian nor European traditions as his birthright. Describing the poetic movement he helped to found, Acmeism, as a "yearning for world culture, " he defined the impulse that charges his own poetry and prose. Clare Cavanagh has written a sustained studplacing Mandelstam's "remembrance and invention" of...
