The Lion and the Mouse: An Aesop Fable Retold and Illustrated by Bernadette Watts
No full textHere is an extra copy of this book. ©2000 by Nord-Süd Verlag AG, Gossau Zürich, and first published in Switzerland under the title Der Löwe und die Maus. This lovely oversized edition starts in a new way: a playful lion cub is awakened by a mouse scampering across his paw. Making the lion young allows, I think, for a different understanding of his boast that a mouse cannot help a lion. Though the art is still done for children, Watts creates one of the most realistic nets I have seen for the lion, who roars day and night. None of the animals can help him. Watts pays special attention to the surrounding creatures, including colorful snakes and birds. My favorites are the curious and attentive mongooses.This is a hardbound book (hard cover)This book has a dust jacket (book cover)First editionFirst printingRetold and Illustrated by Bernadette Watt

A qualitative exploration of the lived experience of being homeless
No full textHomelessness is a complex problem which has significant implications on an individual and societal level. There is strong evidence to suggest that amongst the contributory factors to becoming homeless, mental health problems and an increased vulnerability to substance misuse and addiction feature highly. Furthermore, traumatic events are often seen as contributory factors to mental health difficulties and substance misuse, whilst trauma experience has been identified as a risk factor for homelessness. Prevalence rates for psychological disorders related to trauma in high risk groups, such as war veterans, are significantly higher than the general population and as many as 6 per cent of homeless people are ex-Armed Forces personnel. The first section of this thesis is a narrative literature review summarising the existing literature linking trauma and homelessness and examining the current research for an association between trauma experienced during military service and homelessness. In addition, the clinical implications linked to the present diagnostic process and treatment approaches for trauma-related disorders are considered.The second section of this thesis is a qualitative study undertaken to explore the experiences of ten individuals, seven males and three females, residing in a homeless hostel who gave their accounts during semi-structured interviews. Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis was utilised in an effort to gain insight into the meaning of trauma within the lived experience of homelessness. The themes produced relate to the construal of the homelessness pathway, the impact of homelessness, and coping; with additional overarching themes of trauma and responsibility. The findings illustrate that the factors that influence the onset and maintenance of homelessness are complex and multifaceted and reflect the uniqueness of individual participant’s accounts whilst recognising the commonalities of their experiences. The clinical implications of the research findings are discussed including directions for future research

G. F. Watts
No full textG. F. Watts was one of the major artistic figures of the nineteenth century. In this work published in 1905, only a year after Watts' death, Emilie Barrington (1841–1933) reflects on the close friendship she and her husband had with the renowned artist. Her aim in writing her volume of reminiscences was to accurately record her knowledge of Watts' life. She describes her first impressions, when she first met him in Dante Gabriel Rossetti's studio. Chapters also cover Watts' aims as an artist, his relationships and his genius. This fascinating book is highly illustrated throughout, including Watts' sketches, symbolical paintings and portraits. The reader will gain an intriguing insight into the life and work of this complex character, widely considered to be the greatest painter of the Victorian age.
