Hatshepsut: From Queen to Pharaoh (Metropolitan Museum of Art Series)

2005 y.
Publisher: —
Description: The female pharaoh Hatshepsut reigned for nearly twenty years during Egypt’s early New Kingdom in the fifteenth century B.C. First acting as regent for her young nephew/stepson Thutmose III, she in time assumed the title of king and exercised the full powers of the throne as senior co-ruler. In accordance with Egyptian tradition, Hatshepsut was often depicted as a male king. After her death, however, monuments bearing her image were ruthlessly defaced, and her name was erased from historical accounts. Hatshepsut’s rise to power and the nature of her kingship have long been debated by scholars. This fascinating period, one of immense artistic creativity, is illuminated by this volume’s rich presentation of monumental royal sculpture and reliefs, ceremonial objects, exquisite personal items for everyday use, and dazzling jewelry. Essays focus on influences from the neighboring Near East, Nubia, and the Aegean, the innovative architecture built by Hatshepsut,… [detailed...]

Hattie McDaniel: Black Ambition, White Hollywood

2005 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book Description Hattie McDaniel is perhaps best known for her performance as Mammy, the sassy foil to Scarlett O`Hara in Gone With the Wind, one of Hollywood`s most revered -- and controversial -- films. McDaniel`s Oscar win raised hopes that the entertainment industry was finally ready to create more respectful, multidimensional roles for blacks. But under the aegis of studio heads eager to please Southerners, screenwriters kept churning out roles that denigrated the African-American experience. Where McDaniel`s stature and popularity should have increased after Selznick`s masterpiece came out, as was the case for her white counterparts, hers declined, as an increasingly politicized black audience turned against her. `I`d rather play a maid than be a maid,` is how McDaniel answered her critics. Yet her flippant response belied a woman whose hardscrabble background rendered her emotionally conflicted about the roles she accepted. Here, at last, in a finely tuned biography by… [detailed...]

Hattie McDaniel: Black Ambition, White Hollywood

2007 y.
Publisher: Amistad
Description: Hattie McDaniel is best known for her performance as Mammy, the sassy foil to Scarlett O`Hara in Gone with the Wind. Though the role called for yet another wide-grinned, subservient black domestic, McDaniel transformed her character into one who was loyal yet subversive, devoted yet bossy. Her powerful performance would win her the Oscar for Best Supporting Actress and catapult the hopes of Black Hollywood that the entertainment industry - after decades of stereotypical characters - was finally ready to write more multidimensional, fully realized roles for blacks. But racism was so entrenched in Hollywood that despite pleas by organizations such as the NAACP and SAG - and the very examples that Black service men were setting as they fought against Hitler in WWII - roles for blacks continued to denigrate the African American experience. So rather than see her stature increase in Hollywood, as did other Oscar-winning actresses, Hattie McDaniel, continued to play servants. And… [detailed...]

Haunted London Underground

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: London’s Underground is associated with a multitude of ghostly stories and sightings. Particular stations and abandoned lines, many of which are in close proximity to burial sites from centuries ago, have given rise to unexplained events. This chilling book reveals well-known and hitherto unpublished tales of spirits, specters, and other spooky occurrences on one of the oldest railway networks in the world. The stories of sightings include the ghost of an actress regularly witnessed on Aldywch Station and the `Black Nun` at Bank Station. Eerie noises, such as the cries of 13 year-old Anne Naylor, who was murdered in 1758 at Farringdon Station, and the screams of children who were in an accident at Bethnal Green Station during World War II, are still heard echoing down the stations. These and many more ghostly accounts are recorded in fascinating detail in this book, which is a must-read for anyone interested in the mysterious and murky history of London’s Underground.
