Edvard Munch
The Private Journals of Edvard Munch: We Are Flames Which Pour Out of the Earth

2005 y.
Publisher: University of Wisconsin Press
Description: Scandinavia`s most famous painter, the Norwegian Edvard Munch, is probably best known for his painting The Scream, a universally recognized icon of terror and despair. (A version was stolen from the Munch Museum in Oslo, Norway, in August 2004, and has not yet been recovered.) But Munch considered himself a writer as well as a painter. Munch began painting as a teenager and, in his young adulthood, studied and worked in Paris and Berlin, where he evolved a highly personal style in paintings and works on paper. And in diaries that he kept for decades, he also experimented with reminiscence, fiction, prose portraits, philosophical speculations, and surrealism. Known as an artist who captured both the ecstasies and the hellish depths of the human condition, Munch conveys these emotions in his diaries but also reveals other facets of his personality in remarks and stories that are alternately droll, compassionate, romantic, and cerebral. This English translation of Edvard Munch`s… [detailed...]

The Private Lives of the Impressionists

2006 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Manet, Monet, Pissarro, CA©zanne, Renoir, Degas, Sisley, Berthe Morisot and Mary Cassatt. Though they were often ridiculed or ignored by their contemporaries, today astonishing sums are paid for the works of these artists, whose paintings are celebrated for their ability to capture the moment, not only in the fleeting lights of a landscape but in scenes of daily life. Their dazzling pictures are familiar—but how well does the world know the Impressionists as people? The Private Lives of the Impressionists tells their story. It is the first book to offer an intimate and lively biography of the world`s most popular group of artists. In a vivid and moving narrative, biographer Sue Roe shows the Impressionists in the studios of Paris, rural lanes of Montmartre and rowdy riverside bars as Paris underwent Baron Haussmann`s spectacular transformation. For more than twenty years they lived and worked together as a group, struggling to rebuild their lives after the… [detailed...]

The Private Realm of Marie Antoinette

Description: `Evocative photography and a wealth of detail make the book a visual treat.`? Interior Design Marie Antoinette, whose marriage at fifteen made her queen of France before she was twenty, died under the blade of the guillotine in 1793. She has been romanticized as the martyred queen, admired as the personification of eighteenth-century French royal style, and vilified as the Austrian whose frivolous extravagance and foreign sympathies fired the French Revolution. This book turns aside from the official portraits and great historical events to rediscover the private places and objects that reflect Marie Antoinette`s personality and reveal her more directly to our modern gaze. Beautifully photographed by FranA§ois Halard, the rooms and buildings she inhabited are shown here in fascinating detail, from the distinctive fabrics and furnishings to the queen`s favorite objects?an amber curiosity, a Chinese lacquer gift from her mother, a porcelain bowl. 123… [detailed...]

The Private Sector in Development: Entrepreneurship, Regulation, and Competitive Disciplines

2003 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionOver the years, the term private sector development has been misunderstood and misconstrued-variously vilified and sanctified. During the decade of the 1990s, the role of the private sector in economic development received increasing attention, with controversy surrounding such issues as privatization and corporate scandals. The Private Sector in Development: Entrepreneurship, Regulation, and Competitive Disciplines provides the first comprehensive treatment of the topic. Central to the discussion is the design of public policy that promotes an appropriate balance between competition and regulation. This book places special emphasis on the means by which private initiative is channeled into socially useful directions, particularly jobcreation and basic service delivery for good people. Finally, there is discussion of the implications of private sector involvement for policies of development institutions. Written principally for policy makers and their… [detailed...]

The Pro-Growth Progressive: An Economic Strategy for Shared Prosperity

Description: After two consecutive elections in which Democratic candidates failed to turn clear economic advantages into electoral victory, a debate is raging over what the Democrats should donow. The narrow, red state-blue state argument between chest-beating poulists and soulless centrists offers the answer to neither the country`s economic future nor the political future of the Democrats. In The Pro-Growth Progressive, President Clinton`s longest-serving national economic advisor, Gene Sperling, argues hat the best economic strategy for our nation -- and the best strategy for progressives whether they be Democrat, Republican, or Independent -- is to pursue policies that are both progressive and pro-growth, that promote progressive values of upward mobilty, fair starts, and economic dignity as well as embrace markets and innovation. Sperling describes how both parties offer the American public impoverished choices: Democrats in the-sky-is-falling party too often pretend that the… [detailed...]

Highly technical, the book lays out a series of mathematical discoveries only rarely analyzed by modern Western scholars. [detailed...]

As Rasmussen demonstrates, Smith not only took Rousseau`s critique of commercial society seriously, but evinced a surprising degree of sympay with it. By reviving Smith`s dialogue with Rousseau, Rasmussen not only examines an important episode in the history of political thought, but engages a debate over the benefits and drawbacks of commercial society that continues today.`-John T. Scott, Uversity of California, Davis `We have hitherto lacked a systematic and sophisticated book-length analysis of the relation between Smith and Rousseau. These two near contemporaries addressed many of the same issues-such as the emergence of capitalism, the lation between the free market and morals, the relation of commerce to politics, the nature of sympathy or empathy, and the relation of the philosopher to the modern liberal order-and yet often came to opposing conclusions.
