SUMMARY:Monthly Talk - ‘The Family’: From the Modern to the Postmodern?  *DATE CHANGE*
DESCRIPTION:*NOTE DATE CHANGE*\nBy Dr Jack Fawbert. \nWe all talk about our ‘families’\, but what does ‘family’ really mean and is its meaning changing? In the 1950s\, sociologists\, in the western world at least\, used to talk about the ‘nuclear family’\, one that consisted of a heterosexual couple with children\, as the ‘ideal’ and as the norm in modernity.\nHowever\, it is now argued by many sociologists that in the postmodern world there have been profound economic\, social and political changes in society that have rendered such notions of ‘the family’ as atypical or even as obsolete.\nPostmodern societies emphasize individualism and ‘choice’ rather than the structural constraints of modernity. This talk explores the changes in what we might regard as ‘the family’ as well as questioning whether what was once known as ‘the cereal packet family’ was ever ‘ideal’ or\, indeed\, the norm.

SUMMARY:Canasta
DESCRIPTION:Canasta originated in Montevideo\, Uruguay in 1939. \nInitially\, you make melds of 3 cards of the same value which you build on to make a Canasta (7 cards). Cards have different values according to their face value. The purpose of the game is to reach 5\,000 points. The more points you score\, the more card values you need to put in an initial meld – in other words\, you are handicapped. This is what makes the game interesting. \nI have a copy of the Canasta card game that we would follow because I know that there are several different ways to play.

SUMMARY:Canasta
DESCRIPTION:Canasta originated in Montevideo\, Uruguay in 1939. \nInitially\, you make melds of 3 cards of the same value which you build on to make a Canasta (7 cards). Cards have different values according to their face value. The purpose of the game is to reach 5\,000 points. The more points you score\, the more card values you need to put in an initial meld – in other words\, you are handicapped. This is what makes the game interesting. \nI have a copy of the Canasta card game that we would follow because I know that there are several different ways to play.
