The term Global Poetry has gained wide spread popularity as recent literary trends in the field of Contemporary Literary and Cultural study just after the revolution of digital technology. This is one of the most recent literary trends coinciding literary and cultural fraternity in one thread pertaining to the ideals of multiculturalism and hybridity of language building a bridge of the recent trends of Contemporary World English Poetry and its cultural and political ends. It is this new literary trend that has gone beyond the borders and bridged different parts of the world framing a common platform for universal cultural brotherhood. When the whole world is in global crisis due to animosity, border crisis, hegemony and constants threats, when war is knocking at the threshold of every nation and when the world is ready to see the nude dances of terrorists and war mongers, evolving of poetic fraternity can create a new dimension of contentiousness. Global Poetic Ethos, an anthology having global vision, values the fundamental character or spirit of any culture; the underlying sentiment that informs the beliefs, customs or practices of different nations can be the best book for reading, spreads the fragrance of symphony and coexistence.

The Tapestry of Culture: An Introduction to Cultural Anthropology provides students and the interested public with a concise picture of the field of cultural anthropology today. From the first edition of Tapestry of Culture published in the early 1980s until now, anthropology has changed greatly, responding to scholarly and political influences as well as changing generations; the ninth edition reflects this ongoing transformation. The influence of postmodernism has generated new debates over theory and practice in anthropology. The content of Tapestry explains these debates, as well as what is still generally accepted and agreed upon by most anthropologists. This edition provides the instructor, student and lay public with the information necessary to enable them to critically read the literature of anthropology, more specifically ethnographic texts which are still the heart of this field. The approach of the book is to accommodate the various points of view in anthropology today. It shows how the concepts, ideas and behavior of other cultures are translated into our culture's terms. Though today many emphasize each culture's uniqueness, the presence of cultural similarities is compelling. Using a comparative approach, The Tapestry of Culture reveals cultural similarities, as well as the cultural differences.
