Ben Gazzara
In the Moment: My Life as an Actor

2004 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionIn the Moment is an intimate memoir by the quintessential `actor`s actor.` Ben Gazzara established his name at the Actor`s Studio in 1952. Working under Elia Kazan and Lee Strasberg, alongside Marlon Brando and James Dean, and gaining success with mega-stars like Marilyn Monroe, Gazzara helped to introduce a new acting style to the world. More importantly, however, the Actor`s Studio launched his career as a leading man when he was handpicked by Kazan to originate the role of Brick on Broadway in Tennessee Williams`s Cat on a Hot Tin Roof. Soon Gazzara achieved national fame in the film Anatomy of a Murder. Launched into a career in which he worked and played with Frank Sinatra, Orson Welles, Laurence Olivier, Shelley Winters, Lee Remick,Woody Allen, and Audrey Hepburn, who was for a time the author`s lover, Gazzara may be best known for his early work in independent film, collaborating on a string of off-beat, experimental movies by John Cassavetes.

Marouf A. Hasian
In the Name of Necessity: Military Tribunals and the Loss of American Civil Liberties (Albma Rhetoric Cult &, Soc Crit)

2005 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Analyses the ways American leaders have justified the use of military tribunals, the suspension of due process, and the elimination of habeas corpus. Though the war on terrorism is said to have generated unprecedented military situations, arguments for the Patriot Act and military tribunals following 9/11 resemble many historical claims for restricting civil liberties, more often than not in the name of necessity. Marouf Hasian Jr. examines the major legal cases that show how various generations have represented the need for military tribunals, and how officials historically have applied the term “necessity.” George Washington cited the necessity of martial discipline in executing the British operative Major AndrA©. Tribunals tried and convicted more than 200 Sioux warriors during the Dakota Wars. President Lincoln suspended habeas corpus for many civilian and military prisoners during the Civil War. Twentieth Century military and civilian leaders… [detailed...]

In the North My Nest is Made: Studies in the History of the Murman Colonization 1860-1940

2005 y.
Publisher: University of Tromso
Description: The colonization of the Murman coast was, in many respects, a unique phenomenon, as it involved the simultaneous engagement of completely different ethnic groups - Norwegians, Finns, Russians, Karelians, and Sami - who all lived side by side for more than 80 years, working hard to make a living in this un-welcoming region. For two of the countries involved in the colonization, Russia and Norway, Murman became a sort of `window` through which the neighbours could watch each other and shape their respective policies on the basis of their observations.

In the Pastures of the Sun: Seven Sensuous and Sacred Plays for Every Season

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: All ancient cultures worshipped the Sun, often in the form of an incarnated human being whose biography contained features strikingly similar to those in the archetypal solar myth cited by Manly Hall. Not just Jesus of the Christians but Krishna of the Hindus, Mishra of the Persians, and Quetzalcoatl of the Mayans, for example, were all said to have birthdays on December 25. These plays celebrate each of the festivals which observes a mythic point of significant development in the career of the archetypal solar hero, who is considered a world savior, an avatar, a messiah, and who plays a prominent role in most theologies of the ancient world. Taken together, therefore, the solar festivals illuminate a metaphysical system, most likely older than civilization itself, based upon the cyclical rhythms of the seasons applied to the life story of an archetypal human being.

In the Presence of the Poor: Changing the Face of India

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Why does God make so many poor people? That is the question that Dr. Vijayam, PhD, recipient of India`s highest national science award, kept asking as he grew up. He could not get over the suffering, despair and seeming hopelessness all around him in India. It eventually led him to embrace Marxist Communism as a hope for the poor. In this deeply moving account, you will be profoundly challenged through the life of one man who, after giving his life over to Christ, took his Godgiven talents with his training and experience and then got to work right where he was for such a time as this. Reaching across the deep cultural chasms of caste and class, Dr. Vijayam pioneered the idea of harnessing technology for the poor and using it in combination with cuttingedge microenterprise concepts. He and his wife worked to free those enslaved as bonded laborers. To fulfill his vision of seeing the Gospel spread to each of the 4,000 unreached people groups in India, Dr. Vijayam established a… [detailed...]

But when a neighbor dies suddenly and mysteriously, Michael cannot ignore the rumors that link his own father to the dead woman. Searching for answers, Michael learns that none of those he loves are quite what they seem. And he discovers that becoming a man means that the choice between love and abandonment, loyalty and betrayal, survival and death, is not as easy as he once believed. [detailed...]

In the Realm of the Senses (Bfi Film Classics)

2004 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionDeclared obscene in Japan, where it has never been shown in its entirety, Oshima Nagisa`s In the Realm of the Senses was shown uncut at the Cannes Film Festival in 1976, thirteen screenings were required to satisfy audience demand. The unprecedented explicitness of the sexual acts depicted in the film caused widespread controversy. But this is not a film that sets out simply to shock. Oshima`s account of a couple whose sexual obsession finds its ultimate expression in murder (based on a notorious true-life incident in 1936 Tokyo) was animated by deep political convictions. As Joan Mellen explains, Oshima wished to break with social conventions as well as the filmmaking culture of the past. Refusing to follow the lead of the masters who had gone before him-Mizoguchi, Ozu, Naruse, and Kurosawa-Oshima attacked the sense of victimhood he saw everywhere in his country. In In the Realm of the Senses, Oshima`s lovers seek to combat social repression through sexual… [detailed...]

In the Rings of Saturn

Publisher: —
Description: In this compelling, readable narrative, Joe Sherman explores virtually every aspect of the Saturn project, America`s biggest and most publicized industrial success of the last decade. Here is the whole story--Saturn`s mysterious beginnings inside GeneralMotors in 1982, the site hunt that involved 38 states and ended in Spring Hill, Tennessee, the plant`s construction and the transfer of 5,000 UAW members to a historic Southern backwater, and finally the small car`s triumph in the marketplace (Consumer Reports and J.D. Powers both dubbed Saturn a made-in-America breakthrough)--all woven together into a candid, panoramic tapestry. In the Rings of Saturn has a striking immediacy: the reader sees almost first-hand GM`s 1991 Annual Meeting at the Grand Ole Opry led by chairman Robert Stempel, as gadfly stockholders turn the event into a parody. We spend a week on the crankshaft machining line under the care of paternal, bearlike teamleader Bob Courtemanche, experiencing Saturn`s… [detailed...]
