Everybody has a body that can walk, work, play and sing along to funny songs! This sing-along picture book celebrates body words with double meanings. Chew some gum and brush your gums. Back up and do a back bend. Young readers will giggle their way through this catchy song about body homonyms.
"Contains full-size stroke diagrams, exercises for alternative brushes, added strokes and new instruction, swing, bebop, funk, R & B patterns for brushes: every pattern is performed on the CDs with play-along tracks."--Cover
Lyrics to over 50 songs by musician/songwriter Michael Brush.
The Qianlong emperor, who dominated the religious and political life of eighteenth-century China, was in turn dominated by elaborate ritual prescriptions. These texts determined what he wore and ate, how he moved, and above all how he performed the yearly Grand Sacrifices. In Of Body and Brush, Angela Zito offers a stunningly original analysis of the way ritualizing power was produced jointly by the throne and the official literati who dictated these prescriptions. Forging a critical cultural historical method that challenges traditional categories of Chinese studies, Zito shows for the first time that in their performance, the ritual texts embodied, literally, the metaphysics upon which imperial power rested. By combining rule through the brush (the production of ritual texts) with rule through the body (mandated performance), the throne both exhibited its power and attempted to control resistance to it. Bridging Chinese history, anthropology, religion, and performance and cultural studies, Zito brings an important new perspective to the human sciences in general.
