Alice May: A Biography (Forgotten Stars of the Musical Theater)

2003 y.
Publisher: Routledge
Description: Alice May is the archetype of the Gilbert and Sullivan prima donna. She ran away with her music teacher as a girl and landed in Australia, becoming that country`s leading comic opera singer. As the head of her own company she toured Australia and New Zealand, eventually making her way to Britain via India, where she entered into successful partnerships and productions. Before she drank down the last of her last days in St. Louis--minus the music teacher--she had traveled oceans and brought down not a few houses. This biography brings it all within view, and helps fill-out the picture we have of a former period in musical theater. [detailed...]

Evelyn C. White
Alice Walker: A Life

2004 y.
Publisher: Ч
Description: The first full-length biography of the author of The Color Purple ?an American icon praised and pilloried for her art and activism. Born to a sharecropping family in Georgia, Alice Walker thrived in the rich culture of what she called the `agrarian peasantry` to become one of our most important and popular writers. Evelyn C. White charts Walker`s childhood, marked by an incident at eight that left her blinded in her right eye and disfigured by scar tissue and that prompted her, out of a sense of `ugliness,` to probe human suffering through her poems and stories. We learn of her activism in the 1960s freedom movement and her leadership of the debate on black women`s art, politics, and sexuality. The Color Purple garnered Walker the Pulitzer Prize in Fiction?the first awarded to a black woman writer. Drawing on papers, letters, journals, and extensive interviews with Walker, her family, friends, and colleagues, and with leading American cultural figuresЕ [detailed...]

Alice Waters and Chez Panisse: The Romantic, Impractical, Often Eccentric, Ultimately Brilliant Making of a Food Revolution

2007 y.
Publisher: Ч
Description: In an authorized biography-the story of Alice Waters, Chez Panisse, and the San Francisco 1970s counterculture food revolution that invented `American cuisine` Not so long ago it was nearly impossible to find a cappuccino or a croissant in this country, and goat cheese and mesclun lettuce were virtually unheard of. Most people had no idea what `organic` food was, and even fewer thought about `sustainable farming.` But in 1971, in a corner of Berkeley, California, a young Francophile named Alice Waters opened a small counterculture restaurant for her friends called Chez Panisse and launched an entirely new way of thinking about and serving food in America. Without an ounce of business sense or financial discipline, Alice relied on the coterie of devoted friends and followers who developed around her and on her strong principles of, among other things, using only locally grown and organic ingredients at the peak of their seasons, to keep her restaurant afloat. It was aЕ [detailed...]

Description: This adventurous book charts the origins of the local Уmarket cookingФ culture that we all savor today. When Francophile Alice Waters opened Chez Panisse in Berkeley in 1971, few Americans were familiar with goat cheese, cappuccino, or mesclun. But it wasnТt long before Waters and her motley coterie of dreamers inspired a new culinary standard incorporating ethics, politics, and the conviction that the best-grown food is also the tastiest. Based on unprecedented access to Waters and her inner circle, this is a truly delicious rags-to-riches saga. [detailed...]

Alice in Jamesland: The Story of Alice Howe Gibbens James

2009 y.
Publisher: Ч
Description: Alice in Jamesland, the first biography of Alice Howe Gibbens JamesЧwife of the psychologist and philosopher William James, and sister-in-law of novelist Henry JamesЧwas made possible by the rediscovery of hundreds of her letters and papers thought to be destroyed in the 1960s. Encompassing European travel, Civil War profiteering, suicide, a stormy courtship, seances, psychedelic mushrooms, the death of a child, and an enduring love story, Alice in Jamesland is a portrait of a nineteenth-century upper-middle-class marriage, told often through AliceТs own letters and made all the more dynamic because of her role in the James family. Susan E. Gunter positions Alice as a lens through which to view the family, as a perceptive observer privy to knowledge of relationships to which those outside the James family were not. She also portrays Alice as the cohesive factor that held the Jameses together, bridging the gap between brothers William and Henry and acting as the stable center for aЕ [detailed...]

Publisher: Award Publication Limited
Description: Lewis Carroll`s enchanting story of Alice in Wonderland has been adapted for young children by Jane Carruth and has been lovingly illustrated by the inimitable Rene Cloke. When Alice first saw the White Rabbit and followed him down the big rabbit-hole, it was the start of the most wonderful adventure a little girl could have. Just imagine finding yourself having a conversation with a Blue Caterpillar on top of a mushroom. Or sitting down to tea with a March Hare, a Mad Hatter and a very gentle little Dormouse! Of course there were times when Alice wasn`t quite sure if she was really enjoying herself. It certainly wasn`t much fun listening to the tearful Mock Turtle telling her his sad story. And it wasn`t much fun being the guest of the Queen of Hearts. `Off with his head!` or `Off with her head!` was the terrible queen`s favourite command when any of the players at her croquet party upset her. No wonder Alice was glad to make her escape! [detailed...]

There she was, minding her own business, sitting sleepily on the riverbank with her sister, when suddenly a white rabbit ran past and not just any rabbit, but a rabbit murmuring `Dear, dear! I shall be too late!` before pulling a watch out of his waistcoat pocket to check the time. Alice couldn`t believe her eyes and ears. She chased after the rabbit, fell down the hole he disappeared into and at the bottom of the rabbit hole found herself in a very strange land indeed. One adventure follows another in this delightful tale as Alice changes size unexpectedly, attends a tea party given by the March Hare, visits a garden of talking flowers, and acts as witness at the trial of a thief who has stolen some tarts. Along the way, Alice meets such unforgettable characters as the Mad Hatter, the grinning Cheshire Cat, the tearful Mock Turtle, the hookah-smoking Caterpillar, the autocratic Red Queen, and other fanciful folk.

I personaggi che in Alice nel Paese delle Meraviglie sono carte da gioco in Attraverso lo specchio, il suo seguito, sono pezzi degli scacchi: il loro comportamento e dettato dalle regole della partita, ma si colora di originalissimi toni comici. Per le situazioni, gli affascinanti esperimenti verbali e una satira sottile che anticipa i modi dell`assurdo, questi due capolavori della letteratura infantile continuano a esercitare una grande attrazione anche sui lettori adulti. ‘ормат: 110 мм x 180 мм.

Alice, I Think

Description: Ever since Alice arrived at first grade dressed as a hobbit and endured a week of increasingly violent peer rejection, she has been home schooled by her hippie mom and indifferent dad, leaving her with what her therapist calls `a shocking poverty of age-appropriate real-life experience.` Now AliceТs inept new therapist, Death Lord Bob, has cornered her into agreeing to go to the public high school. Actually, this fits right in with AliceТs career aspirations to become a cultural critic, and her eighties style statement would be working out pretty much all right (especially after she gets a great haircut somewhat by accident) if it werenТt for her old nemesis Linda, now grown seriously homicidal, and her two head banger henchmen. AliceТs sensible observations are a rich source of humor in this very funny first novel, as she tries to get her life together in spite of the peculiar aberrations of the `normal` teen and adult population of Smithers, a small ingrown town in British ColumbiaЕ [detailed...]

Description: Vickers`s portrait of Princess Alice of Greece reveals a woman whose life was both tragic and courageous. A great-granddaughter of Queen Victoria and mother to Prince Phillip of Great Britain, Alice had relatives in most of the royal houses of Europe. But despite such grand connections, her life wasn`t easy. She witnessed firsthand the brutality of the First and Second Balkan Wars (1912-13) and World War I, and eventually she and her husband, Prince Andrew of Greece, were forced to live in exile, beginning an `extraordinary nomadic existence.` Such trying circumstances eventually sent her over the edge, and she was committed to a sanitarium, but through sheer determination she recovered. Vickers emphasizes Alice`s many virtuous characteristics, such as her profound spirituality and giving nature. She received the Royal Red Cross for her nursing activities during the Balkan Wars, and later in life she adopted a simple nun`s habit and founded a sisterhood whose mission was to `go outЕ [detailed...]

When Alice tumbles down, down, down a rabbit-hole one hot summer`s afternoon in pursuit of a White Rabbit, she finds herself in Wonderland.

For Wonderland is no ordinary place and the characters that populate it are quite unlike anybody young Alice has ever met before. In this imaginary land she encounters the savagely violent Queen, the lachrymose Mock Turtle, the laconic Cheshire Cat and the hookah-smoking caterpillar, each as surprising and outlandish as the next. Through the Looking-Glass continues Alice`s bizarre adventures, in which she meets more outlandish creations, including the Red Queen, the White Queen, Tweedledum and Tweedledee, Humpty Dumpty and the White Knight. ‘ормат: 10Е [detailed...]

Description: The Alice books are two of the most translated, most quoted, and best-known books in the world, but what exactly are they? Apparently delightful, innocent fantasies for children, they are also complex textures of mathematical, linguistic, and philosophical jokes. Alice`s encounters with the White Rabbit, the Cheshire-Cat, the King and Queen of Hearts, the Mad Hatter, Tweedledum and Tweedledee and many other extraordinary characters have made them masterpieces of carefree nonsense, yet they also appeal to adults on a quite different level. Layers of satire, allusion, and symbolism about Victorian culture and politics, as well as revelations about the intricate subconscious problems of their author, add to their fascination and make them impossible to classify. This new edition explores the phenomenal range of reference, and the paradoxical appeal of two of the most inventive books in world literature. It also includes an episode removed by Carroll from the proofs of Through theЕ [detailed...]

Description: This selection of Carroll`s works includes Alice`s Adventures in Wonderland and its sequel, Through the Looking-Glass, both containing the famous illustrations by Sir John Tenniel. No greater books for children have ever been written. The simple language, dreamlike atmosphere, and fantastical characters are as appealing to young readers today as they ever were. Meanwhile, however, these apparently simple stories have become recognised as adult masterpieces, and extraordinary experiments, years ahead of their time, in Modernism and Surrealism. Through wordplay, parody and logical and philosophical puzzles, Carroll engenders a variety of sub-texts, teasing, ominous or melancholy. For all the surface playfulness there is meaning everywhere.
