Abbott and Costello on the Home Front: A Critical Study of the Wartime Films

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: As two of the highest grossing and most popular entertainers of the mid-century film industry, comic greats Bud Abbott and Lou Costello made over 30 films between 1940 and 1956. Their comedies offered an essential balm to the American public following the sorrows of the Great Depression and provided the hope of laughter as the nation prepared for, participated in, and demobilized after World War II. This is the first book to focus in detail on the immensely popular wartime films of Abbott and Costello, discussing the production, content, and reception of 18 films within the context of wartime events on the home front and abroad. The films covered include the service comedies `Buck Privates`, `In the Navy`, and `Keep `Em Flying`, more mainstream comic relief films such as `Pardon My Sarong` and `Who Done It?`, and post-war experiments such as `Little Giant` and `The Time of Their Lives`. While each film is covered in-depth, the entire output of the team is given a thorough critical… [detailed...]

Abby Whiteside on Piano Playing : Indispensables of Piano Playing and Mastering the Chopin Etudes and Other Essays

2003 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Amazon.comTwo of piano pedagogue Abby Whiteside`s most influential essays, `Indispensables of Piano Playing,` from 1955, and `Mastering the Chopin Etudes,` from 1969, are reprinted in this volume, along with several shorter pieces. Whiteside`s iconoclastic but firmly held beliefs are still provocative: `the pianist cannot control tone quality,` `the importance of a prescribed fingering is practically nil,` and `time spent on scales is not used to best advantage` are among them. But Whiteside backs up herideas persuasively, and even pianists who cannot go along with her all the way will likely find themselves altering aspects of their techniques. Whiteside bases all pianism on motions of the upper arms (confusingly called `top arms` in `Indispensables`) and de-emphasizes anything to do with the fingers. She sees the forearm and fingers only as extensions of the upper arm, which is responsible for speed and accuracy. She is good at imagery in pressing her points: skating, jazz… [detailed...]

Abductive Inference : Computation, Philosophy, Technology

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: In informal terms, abductive reasoning involves inferring the best or most plausible explanation from a given set of facts or data. This volume presents new ideas about inferential and information-processing foundations for knowledge and certainty. The authors argue that knowledge arises from experience by processes of abductive inference, in contrast to the view that it arises noninferentially, or that deduction and inductive generalization are enough to account for knowledge. The book tells the storyof six generations of increasingly sophisticated generic abduction machines and the discovery of reasoning strategies that make it computationally feasible to form well-justified composite explanatory hypotheses, despite the threat of combinatorial explosion. This book will be of great interest to researchers in AI, cognitive science, and philosophy of science. [detailed...]

Abelard: A Medieval Life

1999 y.
Publisher: Blackwell Publishing Limited
Description: Michael Clanchy introduces the reader to medieval life through the experience of Peter Abelard, the master of the Paris schools whose career included seducing Heloise (his student), being castrated, accused of treason, condemned as a heretic (twice) as well as writing his memoirs - his `story of calamities`. Because Abelard touched so many aspects of life, this book is structured naturally around the roles he played. The author describes in vivid and concrete terms what it meant in the twelfth century to be a famous scientist (the master of Latin, logic and philosophy), then a dedicated monk and pioneer of the discipline of theology - and yet one who was at various times a wandering scholar, courtier and jester. The author`s many new findings include the discovery that it was Heloise who inspired many of Abelard`s most profound ideas. She educated him: up to now historians have assumed it to be the other way round. This, the first biography of Abelard for over 30 years, combines the… [detailed...]

In the late 1950s, in the small town of West Annett, Maine, a minister struggles to regain his calling, his family, and his happiness in the wake of profound loss. At the same time, the community he has served so charismatically must come to terms with its own strengths and failings–faith and hypocrisy, loyalty and abandonment–when a dark secret is revealed. Tyler Caskey has come to love West Annett, “just up the road” from where he was born. The short, brilliant summers and the sharp, piercing winters fill him with awe–as does his congregation, full of good people who seek his guidance and listen earnestly as he preaches.
