In George Orwell, Gordon Bowker gives us the man behind the words: his early childhood and schooling at Eton, his deliberate plunge into poverty, his experiences in the Spanish Civil War, his complex, sometimes reckless sex life, and the extraordinary success of Animal Farm and Nineteen Eighty-Four. Meticulously researched, this is the most fully realized account yet of this pivotal literary figure. [detailed...]

George Parker Winship as Librarian, Typophile, and Teacher (Houghton Library Publications)

2005 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionThe career of historian, bibliographer, and librarian George Parker Winship (1871–1952) combined curatorship and scholarship to a degree that seems remarkable today. As librarian and curator at Brown and later at Harvard, he championed the primacy of the role of rare books in American higher education. As a connoisseur and printer, he played an active role in promulgating enthusiasm for fine printing among collectors and readers in the early twentieth century. Through his teaching at Harvard College, he inspired a generation of bibliophiles. This slim, elegant volume collects three talks given on April 17, 1997, at a symposium held in Winship`s memory, and includes an essay by grandson Michael Winship, himself one of America`s preeminent bibliographers. The career of historian, bibliographer, and librarian George Parker Winship (1871-1952) combined curatorship and scholarship to a degree that seems remarkable today.

Elizabeth Harlan
George Sand

2004 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book Description George Sand was the most famous—and most scandalous—woman in nineteenth-century France. As a writer, she was enormously prolific—she wrote more than ninety novels, thirty-five plays, and thousands of pages of autobiography. She inspired writers as diverse as Flaubert and Proust but is often remembered for her love affairs with such figures as Musset and Chopin. Her affair with Chopin is the most notorious: their nine-year relationship ended in 1847 when Sand began to suspect that the composer had fallen in love with her daughter, Solange. Drawing on archival sources—much of it neglected by Sand’s previous biographers—Elizabeth Harlan examines the intertwined issues of maternity and identitythat haunt Sand’s writing and defined her life. Why was Sand’s relationship with her daughter so fraught? Why was a woman so famous for her personal and literary audacity ultimately so conflicted about women’s… [detailed...]

George Soros on Globalization

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: As the global economy becomes at once a fact of everyday life and the inspiration for violent protest, George Soros offers his provocative analysis of globalization and outlines a new agenda for the leading nations of the world. Over the past decade, `globalization` has become a buzzword for everything that is happening in the world economy or even in international relations generally. But as even a cursory glance at recent headlines reveals, not everyone is happy with globalization. Violent protests are now a regular feature of international summit meetings, and many young people have expressed their strong opposition to policies that they see as enriching the rich at the expense of workers, the environment, and traditional culture. As the world economy has transformed in the 1990s and early 2000s, no individual has grappled with the social and political implications of globalization more than George Soros. George Soros on Globalization seeks to assess not merely how… [detailed...]

George Soros on Globalization

2005 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Never before have we stood to gain or lose as much from understanding the international economy. Scandals plague the world`s largest corporations, the American trade deficit has soared to historic heights, and international organizations from the World Bank to the WTO are accused of being inefficient and corrupt. Is our global economy as unhealthy, and as unjust, as we think? And what can be done about it? At this critical juncture, George Soros, a major proponent of globalization, takes to task the many institutions that have failed to keep pace with our global economy. At the same time, he offers a compelling new paradigm to bring the institutions and the economy back into necessary alignment. Economics are amoral, he argues - but neither our society nor our economy can afford to function without a distinct system of right and wrong. As we look toward the future and wonder what`s ailing our economy, where our jobs are going, and whether the power of economics can be harnessed… [detailed...]

His estranged daughter describes the man as an unforgivable lout, whereas his niece remembers him fondly. His former assistant recalls a trip to the Arctic during which George abandoned him for two months, while George himself remembers that trip as the time he began writing letters to a former love, from whom he never received replies.Invoking a sense of both memory and its loss, George Sprott is heavy with the charming, melancholic nostalgia that distinguishes Setha??s work.

George Cooper Stevens
George Stevens: Interviews (Conversations With Filmmakers Series)

2004 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionAt first glance, George Stevens (1904-1975) appears to be the quintessential Hollywood director. A closer look at his achievements shows him to be more than just the creator of some of the smartest melodramas and comedies of the 1930s and 1940s, including Annie Oakley, Swing Time, and Gunga Din. Several of his films---Giant, The Diary of Anne Frank, Shane, The Greatest Story Ever Told, and A Place in the Sun---are regarded as some of the most important and enduring dramas of postwar American cinema. As a leading producer and director of his era, Stevens repeatedly pushed against the Hollywood grain and clashed with censors. George Stevens: Interviews showcases the deep moral vision of a director who is as meticulous, discerning, and contemplative in his conversations as he is as a filmmaker. Although not regarded as an auteur during his career, Stevens can now be regarded as one of America`s most personal and distinguished directors. Throughout this collection,… [detailed...]

George Stubbs (British Artists series) (British Artists)

2002 y.
Publisher: —
Description: The reputation of George Stubbs has undergone profound changes over the two centuries since his death. Once neglected as `only` an animal painter, more recent interpretations have stressed the social content and context of his art, revealing a figure whose work embodies complex attitudes towards upper-class sporting activities, the rural poor and the natural world. This book offers a refreshed picture of Stubbs, reaffirming his singular importance in the history of British art. Martin Myrone establishes Stubbs as a progressive artist, whose concerns with science and art set him somewhat at odds with the artistic establishment, and whose works provide a viable alternative to the `aristocratic` models of the Academy. Part of Tate Publishing`s `British Artists` series. [detailed...]

Description: Book Description In a period when access to fine paintings was restricted, Stubbs`s reputation was spread chiefly through his engravings. This catalogue raisonne is the only single volume to contain all Stubbs`s known engravings and provides acomplete record of prints made by others after his works.

Each of the 218 entries is fully illustrated and accompanied by comparative material. Part 2 comprises 440 supplementary entries and indicates the nature and extent of Stubbs`s posthumous reputation.

George Tooker

2008 y.
Publisher: —
Description: One of America?s pre-eminent painters, George Tooker (born 1920) is known for his haunting works that evoke the alienation and anonymity of urban life. Working in egg tempera, a Renaissance medium that produces a luminous quality yet requires meticulous application, Tooker first came to prominence as part of the post-war Magic Realist movement, creating surrealistic visions that captured the uncertainty of the Cold War era. Often compared with Hopper and Wyeth, Tooker continues to examine modern life with his disquieting imagery. This beautifully produced book, published to coincide with the first major retrospective in 30 years, features superb reproductions of Tooker?s timeless paintings, and includes essays offering new perspectives on his passion for composition, his spirituality and his exploration of identity.

George Tsypin Opera Factory: Building in the Black Void

Publisher: —
Description: Forget everything you think you know about contemporary theater design. The explosive work of Russian-born George Tsypin is changing the way audiences see theatrical productions of all kinds, and it will alter the way you think about what you see on a stage. Thanks to Tsypin, the days of stark, minimalist, almost empty sets are over. His maximalist creations fill the theater`s black void with a fevered combination of elements, referencing everything from Russian Constructivism to the works of Frank Gehry and Zaha Hadid. Set design, under his direction, is a unique form of architecture, a celebration of structural and sculptural possibility. George Tsypin Opera Factory shows Tsypin`s works for the most important opera houses in the world, from New York`s Metropolitan Opera to Milan`s La Scala to Saint Petersburg`s Mariinsky Theater. The book also features work outside of opera, including the MTV Video Music Awards, the Russian Pavilion for the Venice Biennale, and the Millennium… [detailed...]
