Moliere
The Bourgeois Gentleman

2001 y.
Publisher: Dover Publications
Description: As a young man, Jean Baptiste Poquelin had the option of following his father`s footsteps into a comfortable position as a furnisher to the king - but at the age of 20 he renounced this easy life, threw in his lot with a struggling theater company, and called himself Moliere. And in that penniless company, learning his craft through years in front of the footlights, he developed the skills and dramatic techniques that helped make him France`s greatest master of stage comedy. `The Bourgeois Gentleman`, an instant success at its debut in 1670, is a classic satire in which Moliere pokes delicious fun at the sham and hypocrisy of 17th-century French society. A wealthy tradesman by the name of Monsieur Jourdain yearns to become a gentleman in order to win the favor of the beautiful Dorimene, a marchioness - disregarding the inconvenient fact that he is already married. He patronizes a fashionable tailor who leads him into sartorial absurdities, and hires tutors in music, dancing,… [detailed...]

The Bourgeois Revolution in France (1789-1815) (Berghahn Monographs in French Studies)

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: In the last generation the classic Marxist interpretation of the French Revolution has been challenged by the so-called revisionist school. The Marxist view that the Revolution was a bourgeois and capitalist revolution has been questioned by Anglo-Saxon revisionists like Alfred Cobban and William Doyle as well as a French school of criticism headed by Francois Furet. Today revisionism is the dominant interpretation of the Revolution both in the academic world and among the educated public. Against this conception, this book reasserts the view that the Revolution - the capital event of the modern age - was indeed a capitalist and bourgeois revolution. Based on an analysis of the latest historical scholarship as well as on knowledge of Marxist theories of the transition from feudalism to capitalism, the work confutes the main arguments and contentions of the revisionist school while laying out a narrative of the causes and unfolding of the Revolution from the eighteenth century to the… [detailed...]

Deirdre N. McCloskey
The Bourgeois Virtues: Ethics for an Age of Commerce

2006 y.
Publisher: —
Description: For a century and a half, the artists and intellectuals of Europe have scornedthe bourgeoisie. And for a millennium and a half, the philosophers and theologians of Europe have scorned the marketplace. The bourgeois life, capitalism, Mencken’s “booboisie” and David Brooks’s “bobos”—all have been, and still are, framed as being responsible for everything from financial to moral poverty, world wars, and spiritual desuetude. Countering these centuries of assumptions and unexamined thinking is Deirdre McCloskey’s The Bourgeois Virtues , a magnum opus that offers a radical view: capitalism is good for us.McCloskey’s sweeping, charming, and even humorous survey of ethical thought and economic realities—from Plato to Barbara Ehrenreich—overturns every assumption we have about being bourgeois. Can you be virtuous and bourgeois? Do markets improve ethics? Has capitalism made us better as well as richer? Yes, yes, and… [detailed...]

The Box: How the Shipping Container Made the World Smaller and the World Economy Bigger

2006 y.
Publisher: —
Description: In April 1956, a refitted oil tanker carried fifty-eight shipping containers from Newark to Houston. From that modest beginning, container shipping developed into a huge industry that made the boom in global trade possible. The Box tells the dramatic story of the container`s creation, the decade of struggle before it was widely adopted, and the sweeping economic consequences of the sharp fall in transportation costs that containerization brought about. Published on the fiftieth anniversary of the first container voyage, this is the first comprehensive history of the shipping container. It recounts how the drive and imagination of an iconoclastic entrepreneur, Malcom McLean, turned containerization from an impractical idea into a massive industry that slashed the cost of transporting goods around the world. But the container didn`t just happen. Its adoption required huge sums of money, both from private investors and from ports that aspired to be on the leading… [detailed...]

The Boxing Filmography: American Features, 1920-2003

2004 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionThe love affair between boxing and Hollywood began with the dawn of film. As early as the days of Chaplin, the `boxing film` had assumed its place as a subgenre, and over the decades it has taken the forms of biographies, dramas, romances, comedies, and even musicals and westerns. Such well known pictures as The Champ, Body and Soul, Don King: Only in America, Girl Fight, The Irish in Us, The Kid from Brooklyn, Somebody Up There Likes Me, Raging Bull, each of the Rocky movies and When We Were Kings are just a few examples of the feature films included in this filmography. Thoroughly researched, this work examines 98 boxing films from the 1920s through 2003. Each entry provides basic filmographic data (the film?s studio, its genre, its length, cast and credits), a detailed synopsis of the film, illuminating commentary on the boxing sequences, and excerpts from contemporary reviews. Most entries also summarize the making of the film, with… [detailed...]

The animal that I have become cares not for the boy. It demands only to be released. In violence and pain, I surrender to the beast and can only watch in helplessness as my body begins to vibrate from the spasms that are the voice of this particular seizure. The bliss of unconsciousness does not come. I ache for it, and wish for it, but am resigned in the knowledge that it will not save me today. Instead the beast slams me face first into the floor and I taste the blood run down my throat as my nose begins to bleed. For me this is all too routine. [detailed...]

But William had read about windmills in a book called Using Energy, and he dreamed of building one that would bring electricity and water to his village and change his life and the lives of those around him. His neighbors may have mocked him and called him misala--crazy--but William was determined to show them what a little grit and ingenuity could do.Enchanted by the workings of electricity as a boy, William had a goal to study science in Malawi`s top boarding schools. But in 2002, his country was stricken with a famine that left his family`s farm devastated and his parents destitute. Unable to pay the eighty-dollar-a-year tuition for his education, William was forced to drop out and help his family forage for food as thousands across the country starved and died.Yet William… [detailed...]
