That Divine Order

2005 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionEver since antiquity, philosophers have pointed to the supposed ?divine? character of music, and following Pythagoras?s discovery of the mathematical basis of the musical scale, have posited a link between the mathematical order of music, the physical order of the universe and the moral order of human society. Both practising artists and moralists came to believe that, by demonstrating an analogy with music, they could claim a dignity and value for their art ? whether painting, architecture or sculpture ? that it might otherwise lack. Why was this so? What was the point of such analogies? What advantages was music believed to enjoy, by comparison with the visual arts? Artists and critics frequently cited music as a manifestation of God-given order to which visual arts should aspire. But on what evidence was this belief in the inherently systematic character of music based, and in practical terms, how might visual art seek to emulate any… [detailed...]

Robert A. Schanke
That Furious Lesbian: The Story of Mercedes De Acosta (Theater in the Americas)

2003 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionIn this first book-length biography of Mercedes de Acosta, theater historian Robert A. Schanke adroitly mines lost archival materials and mixes in his own interviews with de Acosta?s intimates to correct established myths and at lastconstruct an accurate, detailed, and vibrant portrait of the flamboyantly uninhibited early-twentieth-century author, poet, and playwright. Born to wealthy Spanish immigrants, Mercedes de Acosta (1893?1968) lived in opulence and traveled in the same social circles as the Astors and Vanderbilts. Introduced to the New York theater scene at an early age, her dual loves of performance and of women informed every aspect of her life thereafter. Alice B. Toklas?s observation, `Say what you will about Mercedes, she?s had the most important women in the twentieth century,` was well justified, as her romantic conquests included such internationally renowned beauties as Greta Garbo, Marlene Dietrich, Isadora Duncan, and Eva Le… [detailed...]

Publisher: —
Description: The author s chance discovery of two un-attributed, exquisite sets of plaster tablets miniatures to a scale of 1/20 of the Parthenon frieze and a second from the Temple at Phygalia in Durham Castle and the nearby Bishop s Palace initiated this biography of a most remarkable and hitherto unsung artist. Born in Paisley in 1771 in humble circumstances, son of a jobbing carpenter to whom he was apprenticed as a young man. Almost by accident he becomes an amateur sculptor of finely executed cameo portrait medallions of friends and neighbours, in an enamel medium of his own composition. Newly married to Catherine Sunter in 1799, aged 28, he courageously quits the security of a carpenter for the uncertainties of a professional artist, first in Glasgow, then in Edinburgh. He quickly attracts patrons in High Society, notably Sir Walter Scott and General Vyse, C m C Scotland. The quality of his work is attested when Josiah Wedgwood the potter undertakes to produce and promote some … [detailed...]

Robert H. Jackson
That Man: An Insider`s Portrait of Franklin D. Roosevelt

2003 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionRobert H. Jackson was one of the giants of the Roosevelt era: an Attorney General, a still revered Supreme Court Justice and, not least important, one of Franklin Delano Roosevelt`s close friends and advisers. His intimate memoir of FDR,written in the early 1950s before Jackson`s untimely death, has remained unpublished for fifty years. Here is that newly discovered memoir. Written with skill and grace, this is truly a unique account of the personality, conduct, greatness of character, and common humanity of `that man in the White House,` as outraged conservatives called FDR. Jackson simply but eloquently provides an insider`s view of Roosevelt`s presidency, including such crucial events as FDR`s Court-packing plan, his battles with corporate America, his decision to seek a third term, and his bold move to aid Britain in 1940 with American destroyers. He also offers an intimate personal portrait of Roosevelt--on fishing trips, in late-night poker games, or approving… [detailed...]

Publisher: —
Description: Amazon.comBob Dollar is a reluctant land swindler. When the 25-year-old protagonist in Annie Proulx`s That Old Ace in the Hole signs on as a location scout for Global Pork Rind, an industrial hog farming corporation, he has no idea what kind of moral quandaries he`s in for. Well, maybe he does. His assignment, after all, is to infiltrate a tiny town in the Texas Panhandle and find a tract of land his employer can turn into an industrial hog farm. Bob tells the locals he`s scouting for luxury home developers (`They feel there is potential here`), but as a cover story it`s less than clever. Only a fool would build mansions in the godforsaken Panhandle country, a place of light soil, bad wind, killing drought, and end-of-world thunder. `To live here,` one Panhandler tells Bob, `it sure helps if you are half cow and half mesquite and all crazy.` The narrative follows Bob`s hapless quest to ink a deal, but Proulx`s mission is bigger than that. She`s out to tell the story of the… [detailed...]

Description: At seven years old, Bob Dollar was left on his uncle Tarn`s doorstep with nothing more than a promise that his parents would send for him. But as Bob grows into a man above his doting-but-poor uncle`s junk shop, news never arrives. With a thirst for knowledge, the now-grown Bob takes on the job of hog site scout for-Global Pork Rind, sending him through the prairies and big cities of the American South. But some folks in the Texas panhandle don`t like hog farms. With a fictitious cover and the advice to wear cowboy boots to assuage the locals, Bob must contend with the tough men and women dead set against hog farming and outsiders, including ancient Freda Beautyrooms, who controls a ranch he covets, and Ace Crouch, the windmiller who defies the hog farms. As Bob settles in at La Von Fronk`s bunkhouse and lends a hand at Cy Frease`s Old Dog Cafe, he finds himself forced to question everything. Формат: 13 см x 20 см. [detailed...]
