Beowulf Cluster Computing with Linux (Scientific and Engineering Computation)

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: Beowulf clusters, which exploit mass-market PC hardware and software in conjunction with cost-effective commercial network technology, are becoming the platform for many scientific, engineering, and commercial applications. With growing popularity has come growing complexity. Addressing that complexity, Beowulf Cluster Computing with Linux and Beowulf Cluster Computing with Windows provide system users and administrators with the tools they need to run the most advanced Beowulf clusters. The book is appearing in both Linux and Windows versions in order to reach the entire PC cluster community, which is divided into two distinct camps according to the node operating system. Each book consists of three stand-alone parts. The first provides an introduction to the underlying hardware technology, assembly, and configuration.

John Grigsby
Beowulf and Grendel : The Truth Behind England`s Oldest Legend

2005 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionThe legend of Beowulf and Grendel is one of the founding works of modern Western literature. It tells the story of the monster-slaying hero, Beowulf, who frees the feasting hall of a Danish king from the 12-year tyranny of the hideous creature Grendel. For decades, scholars have assumed that the warrior Beowulf was based on an actual historic person, but that Grendel was the work of imagination. In Beowulf and Grendel, John Grigsby reveals the true basis for Grendel`s battle with Beowulf. Grigsby explains how a cult migrated to England from Denmark and Germany, bringing with it a practice of human sacrifice. It is the violent suppression of this cult in the fifth century that underlies Beowulf`s fantastic deeds. Fusing historical research with literary study, Grigsby presents a compelling case for the true-life roots of a classic work of art. [detailed...]

Geoffrey Russom
Beowulf and Old Germanic Metre (Cambridge Studies in Anglo-Saxon England)

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: This is a clear and accessible account of early Germanic alliterative verse which explains how such verse was treated by the Beowulf poet. There are differences of poetic style between Beowulf and the otherwise similar verse of ancient Scandinavia and continental Europe. Such distinctions have intrigued scholars for over a century, but Russom is the first to provide a systematic explanation of Old English, Old Norse, Old Saxon and Old High German alliterative metres. Russom`s results should interest scholars of Old English and related Germanic languages, as well as linguists and those concerned with poetic metre. [detailed...]

Beowulf in Old English And New English

2005 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionBeowulf In Old English And New English contains, just as the title states, both versions as a Facing Page Translation. The original Beowulf manuscript is the oldest surviving document in what has come to be the English Language. It is also an exciting saga - full of action, adventure, heroic deeds, mystery and magic. It is magnificent literature. The Old English version is a classic masterpiece of Western Literature which, due to the evolution of the language, has become very difficult for most readers. To facilitate understanding, to make it easier for the first time reader to appreciate the beauty of the original language, the New English translation by the renowned scholar Professor Francis B. Gummere is provided on alternate pages facing the original Old English text. This arrangement makes it possible for the modern reader to immediately grasp the content of the saga and begin to see, on the facing page, the complex beauty of the original poem. It… [detailed...]

Long ago there was a Scandinavian warrior who fought three evils so powerful they could destroy whole kingdoms. Standing head and shoulders above his comrades, Beowulf single-handedly saves the land of the Danes from a merciless ogre named Grendel and then from his sea-hag mother. But it is his third terrible battle, with the death-dragon of the deep, in which he truly meets his match. Lovers of heroes, monsters, and the drama of battle will find this retelling as enthralling as it is tragic. [detailed...]

Seamus Heaney
Beowulf

2000 y.
Publisher: Faber &, Faber
Description: Composed towards the end of the first millennium, the Anglo-Saxon poem `Beowulf` is one of the great Northern epics and a classic of European literature. In his new translation, Seamus Heaney has produced a work which is both true, line by line, to the original poem, and an expression, in its language and music, of something fundamental to his own creative gift. The poem is about encountering the monstrous, defeating it, and then having to live on, physically and psychically exposed, in that exhausted aftermath. It is not hard to draw parallels between this story and the history of the twentieth century, nor can Heaney`s `Beowulf` fail to be read partly in the light of his Northern Irish upbringing. But it also transcends such considerations, telling us psychological and spiritual truths that are permanent and liberating. Формат: 13 см x 19,5 cм. [detailed...]

Beowulf

2007 y.
Publisher: Wordsworth Classics
Description: `Beowulf` is the longest surviving poem of Anglo-Saxon England. Beowulf, a young warrior of the Geats, comes to the aid of Hrothgar, king of the Danes, in his time of need. He first fights the hellish Grendel, then struggles with Grendel`s no less fearsome mother in her hall beneath the cold waters of the mere. More than fifty years later Beowulf, now king of the Geats, must face his final challenge in the shape of a huge and terrifying dragon. But `Beowulf` is not just an adventure story. Other tales of war, feuding, and loss in less mythical worlds are interwoven with the main plot in such a way as to force readers to ask questions about the heroic code, equally thought-provoking are the juxtaposition of virtuous and vicious characters, the presence of some women who are helpless victims and others who exert a strong influence on men, and above all the fact that the characters are pagan while the poet is clearly (though not insistently) Christian. Marc Hudson`s thoughtful… [detailed...]

If an employee dies or the partner of an employee, their manager will need to sort out the difficult practical issues that arise from death. How should one refer to what has happened?

This book breaks new ground in placing bereavement on the management agenda ratherthan leaving a company`s response to chance. It is an essential guide for anyone in an organization who has to take responsibility in case of death, from managers, human resources and occupational health specialists, to welfare officers and trade union representatives.

Publisher: Steidl Photography International
Description: With this deluxe, two-volume slipcased set, photography lovers around the world will at last have a thorough retrospective of the work of Berenice Abbott. Portraitist, Atget editor, chronicler of Paris and New York and a giant of twentieth-century photography, Abbott has long gone without a publication encompassing all of the principal strands of her practice. Included herein is her early work as a portrait photographer in Paris during the 1920s, when she learned photography as Man Ray`s darkroom assistant and catalogued the city`s artistic life with portraits of James Joyce, Jean Cocteau, Peggy Guggenheim, Margaret Anderson, Jane Heap, Sylvia Beach, Bryher and Eugene Atget. (During this time, she adopted the French spelling of her first name, `Berenice,` at the suggestion of Djuna Barnes.) Her New York photographs of the 1930s are testament to the architectural and social transformations within the city and throughout the United States in that decade. In this period Abbott also began… [detailed...]

Bergman

2007 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Ingrid Bergman was born beautiful, but, unusually for one so blessed, she knew that beauty is never enough. She wanted to be great as well. Did any movie star of the classic era demonstrate more ambition? On the stage, she performed Strindberg, Ibsen, Turgenev, Shaw, and O`Neill - some several times. On television she acted in Zweig, Henry James, and Cocteau, and in movies there was Joan of Arc (1948) and a relentless film for Ingmar Bergman, Autumn Sonata (1978). Those stage performances were acclaimed in their time, but they are gone. What is left is a succession of films recording an indelible combination of profoundly female beauty with stolid peasant strength - a tawny sensuality that made her particularly adept at portraying capitulation to desire. No leading lady ever melted into her leading men more convincingly, yet Bergman never seemed to be fully emotionally involved with any of her three husbands. She needed romance more than she believed in love, which is why… [detailed...]

Bergman`s Muses: Aesthetic Versatility in Film, Theatre, Television and Radio

2003 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionBergman is a most versatile director who has devoted himself to several muses in a variety of media. Apart from being a writer of plays and screenplays, he has over the past fifty years directed about a hundred stage performances, fifty films, and many works for radio and television. During this time, all the production equipment used have undergone significant changes (allowing, just for instance, a more varied and subtle use of light and sound). But by his own admission, Bergman?s texts have often lacked a clear orientation toward a specific medium. This book focuses on Bergman?s way of tackling the problems inherent in each art form he has dealt with, giving a penetrating picture of his craftsmanship and the intimate relationship between his work on stage and in film, as well as the possibilities and limitations of the various forms. With the varied media at his disposal, Bergman is internationally the most versatile author-cum-director presently at… [detailed...]

Beria My Father: Inside Stalin`s Kremlin

2003 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionFor almost twenty years two men from Georgia dominated the Russians and its empire: Stalin and Beria as head of what was to become the KGB. This book is a memoir of daily life with these two men who sent millions to their graves. It vividly paints Stalin`s increasingly psychotic nature and the dread that pervaded everyone`s life, even that of Beria, but also the incomprehensible loyalty that Stalin inspired among women such as the author`s mother, also a Georgian. It also contains Sergio`s anecdotes like the time Svetlana, Stalin`s nymphomaniac daughter, chased him. Upon Stalin`s mysterious death, Beria dramatically lost the struggle for power with Khrushchev, a Russian, who murdered him with the aid of his fellow politburo members. More than any book currently available, this extraordinary document shows what it was like to grow up at the top in a duplicitous and deeply immoral and violent atmosphere. [detailed...]
