Philippa Gregory
The Virgin`s Lover

2005 y.
Publisher: Touchstone
Description: In the autumn of 1558, church bells across England ring out the joyous news that Elizabeth I is the new queen. One woman hears the tidings with utter dread. She is Amy Dudley, wife of Sir Robert, and she knows that Elizabeth`s ambitious leap to the throne will draw her husband back to the center of the glamorous Tudor court, where he was born to be. Elizabeth`s excited triumph is short-lived. She has inherited a bankrupt country where treason is rampant and foreign war a certainty. Her faithful advisor William Cecil warns her that she will survive only if she marries a strong prince to govern the rebellious country, but the one man Elizabeth desires is her childhood friend, the ambitious Robert Dudley. As the young couple falls in love, a question hangs in the air: can he really set aside his wife and marry the queen? When Amy is found dead, Elizabeth and Dudley are suddenly plunged into a struggle for survival. Philippa Gregory`s `The Virgin`s Lover` answers the [detailed...]

Howard Rheingold
The Virtual Community: Homesteading on the Electronic Frontier, revised edition

y.
Publisher:
Description: Howard Rheingold has been called the First Citizen of the Internet. In this book he tours the `virtual community` of online networking. He describes a community that is as real and as much a mixed bag as any physical community -- one where people talk, argue, seek information, organize politically, fall in love, and dupe others. At the same time that he tells moving stories about people who have received online emotional support during devastating illnesses, he acknowledges a darker side to people`s behavior in cyberspace. Indeed, contends Rheingold, people relate to each other online much the same as they do in physical communities. Originally published in 1993, The Virtual Community is more timely than ever. This edition contains a new chapter, in which the author revisits his ideas about online social communication now that so much more of the world`s population is wired. It also contains an extended bibliography. [detailed...]

The Virtual Marshall Mcluhan

2006 y.
Publisher:
Description: Marshall McLuhan was a satirist and prophetic poet, a pop guru adopted by Tom Wolfe, Woody Allen, and others, a North American precursor of French theory (Baudrillard, Barthes, Derrida, Deleuze), an artist, and a shaman. The Virtual Marshall McLuhan sheds new light on McLuhans many roles and offers a background to his influential writings. Donald Theall explores McLuhans significance for theories of culture, communication, and technology. He reveals important information about McLuhan and his relationship with his earliest collaborator and life-long friend, anthropologist Edmund Carpenter, as well as with Theall himself, McLuhans first doctoral student. The McLuhan who emerges is at once attractive, witty, egotistic, and exasperating. Complex and thoughtful, neither uncritical adulation nor demonization, The Virtual Marshall McLuhan does justice to a unique figure caught in a struggle between tradition and modernity, faith and anarchy.

The Virtual Window: From Alberti to Microsoft

2006 y.
Publisher:
Description: As we spend more and more of our time staring at the screens of movies, televisions, computers, and handheld devices--`windows` full of moving images, texts, and icons--how the world is framed has become as important as what is in the frame. In The Virtual Window , Anne Friedberg examines the window as metaphor, as architectural component, and as an opening to the dematerialized reality we see on the screen. In De pictura (1435), Leon Battista Alberti famously instructed painters to consider the frame of the painting as an open window. Taking Alberti`s metaphor as her starting point, Friedberg tracks shifts in the perspectival paradigm as she gives us histories of the architectural window, developments in glass and transparency, and the emerging apparatuses of photography, cinema, television, and digital imaging. Single-point perspective--Alberti`s metaphorical window--has long been challenged by modern painting, modern architecture, and moving-image [detailed...]
