E. Graeme Robertson and Joan Robertson
Cast Iron Decoration: A World Survey

2007 y.
Publisher: Thames and Hudson
Description: In the nineteenth century there was an amazing flowering of ironwork forms, mass produced and widely distributed, but of extreme variety and richness of design. Too often they have been overlooked, or referred to mistakenly as `wrought iron.` E.Graeme Robertson`s interest began decades ago with the realization that cast iron was being destroyed because its aesthetic value was not recognized. To remedy this situation he wrote a number of books on Australian ironwork and then, with his daughter Joan, traveled all over the world to compile this superb photographic inventory of the forms taken by cast iron ornamentation, its national variations, its relationship to architecture, and its contribution to the attractiveness of buildings. Supported by introductory texts, glossary, and bibliography, `Cast Iron Decoration` will be equally valuable to architects, art historians, and designers - and to anyone who cares for our cultural heritage. 521 illustrations. … [detailed...]

Cast Out: Vagrancy and Homelessness in Global and Historical Perspective (Ohio RIS Global Series)

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: The connections among vagabondage and human labor, mobility, status, and behavior have placed vagrancy at the crossroads of a multitude of political, social, and economic processes. Vagrancy and homelessness have been used to examine a vast array of phenomena, from the migration of labor to socital and governmental responses to poverty through charity, welfare, and prosecution. Cast Out: Vagrancy and Homelessness in Global and Historical Perspective is the first book to consider the shared global heritage of vagrancy laws, homelessness, and the historical processes they accompanied. Cast Out attempts to bridge some of the divides that have discouraged a world history of vagrancy and homelessness. This ambitious collection spans eight centuries, five continents, and several academic disciplines. The essays include discussions of the lives of the underclass, strategies for surviving and escaping poverty, the criminalization of poverty by the state, the rise of welfare and development… [detailed...]

Brian Jacques
Castaways of the Flying Dutchman (Firebird)

2003 y.
Publisher: Puffin
Description: Fans of the Redwall series eager to sink their teeth into the latest adventure from Brian Jacques will be surprised to find that the cover of Castaways of the Flying Dutchman belies the contents of this fine mystery novel. A handsome young lad, sporting a billowing, ripped shirt, gazes off into the distance, while behind him a ship founders on an eerily tempestuous sea. It`s true, the first (brief) section of the book does tell the tale of a stowaway orphan on the legendary,ill-fated ship, the Flying Dutchman . And that`s as swashbuckling a story as they come. But as soon as the boy and his newly adopted dog are tossed into the sea during a ferocious storm, the book takes a sharp turn. Ben and his dog, Ned, given eternal life by a sympathetic angel, now set out to `bring confidence and sympathy, help others to change their fate.` Two centuries later, they arrive in the village of Chapelvale, which is filled with quirky, affectionate citizens, who… [detailed...]

Helmut Hirler
Castillos

2007 y.
Publisher: Edition Panorama
Description: Over the course of two decades, the photographer Helmut Hirler has made more than a dozen trips throughout Spain on his motorcycle, in order to record with his camera the unique dialogue between architecture and nature conducted by the Spanish castles with the landscapes which surround them. This selection of his best and most spectacular black-and-white panoramic photographs shows not only world-famous and carefully restored masterpieces of Islamic and Christian architecture, but also some almost forgotten castles away from the main tourist routes, which are no less impressive for having been left to rack and ruin. Again and again, the dramatic photographs of this standard work bring home to us why Ortega у Gasset wrote about the casties, that they are `beyond measure, eerie and like sleepwalkers`.

Casting Might-Have-Beens: A Film-by-Film Directory of Actors Considered For Roles Given To Others

2005 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionSome acting careers are made by one great role and some fall into obscurity when one is declined. Would Al Pacino be the star he is today if Robert Redford had accepted the role of Michael Corleone in The Godfather ? Imagine Tom Hanks rejecting Uma Thurman, saying that she acted like someone in a high school play when she auditioned to play opposite him in The Bonfire of the Vanities. Picture Danny Thomas as The Godfather, or Marilyn Monroe as Cleopatra. This reference work lists hundreds of such stories: actors who didn?t get cast or who turned down certain parts. Each entry, organized alphabetically by film title, gives the character and actor cast, a list of other actors considered for that role, and the details of the casting decision. Information is drawn from extensive research and interviews. From About Last Night (which John Belushi turned down at his brother?s urging) to Zulu (in which Michael Caine was not cast… [detailed...]

Description: The first comprehensive guide to conducting academic research on the Internet. The book assumes a certain familiarity with standard research procedures (e.g. library and notetaking skills) and a general computer literacy, but assumes little experience with the Internet.

Also included are sections on the listservs and e-mail. All discussion of finding and evaluating Internet-based information occurs within the context of typical student research, showing how the Internet fits into finding a topic, shaping and narrowing the focus, drafting and revising the paper, and integrating and documenting the source material.

Casting a Shadow: Creating the Alfred Hitchcock Film

2007 y.
Publisher: Northwestern University Press
Description: Alfred Hitchcock is often held up as the prime example of the one-man filmmaker, conceiving and controlling all aspects of his films` development--the archetype of genius over collaboration. An exhibition at the Block Museum of Art at Northwestern University, however, put the lie to Hitchcock-as-auteur, presenting more than seventy-five sketches, designs, watercolors, paintings, and storyboards that, together, examine Hitchcock`s very collaborative filmmaking process. The four essays in this collection were written to accompany the exhibition and delve further into Hitchcock`s contributions to the collaborative process of art in film. Scott Curtis considers the four functions of Hitchcock`s sketches and storyboards and how they undermine the impression of Hitchcock as a lone artist. Tom Gunning examines the visual vocabulary and cultural weight of Hitchcock`s movies. Bill Krohn focuses sharply on the film I Confess, tracking its making over a very cooperative path. … [detailed...]

Casting the Net: From ARPANET to INTERNET and Beyond

Publisher: —
Description: While brief histories of the Internet exist in many places, Peter Salus attempts to pull together the entire story. Beginning with George Stibnitz`s demonstration of Bell Labs` complex calculator by remote terminal in September of 1940, Salus shows how this dauntingly complex technological achievement came into existence step by step, with thousands of small innovations in both hardware and software. It`s unavoidable that the book is largely about technology, and there are several technical details and charts for those interested in the nuts and bolts of Internet construction. But even the technologically challenged will be able to follow the tale since it`s largely about the people who made it all happen. Salus has gone back to the original documents and correspondence among the Net`s creators and has interviewed such key players as Vinton Cerf, Bob Kahn, John Quartermain, Ray Tomlinson and many more. The picture that emerges encompasses the energy and thrill that went into the… [detailed...]

Castle Waiting

2006 y.
Publisher: —
Description: The multiple Harvey and Eisner award-winning fantasy is now collected in one volume! The 450-page Castle Waiting graphic novel tells the story of an isolated, abandoned castle, and the eccentric inhabitants who bring it back to life. A fable for modern times, Castle Waiting is a fairy tale that`s not about rescuing the princess, saving the kingdom, or fighting the ultimate war between Good and Evil?but about being a hero in your own home. For the first time, Fantagraphics` Castle Waiting collects the entire story into one mammoth volume?and includes the concluding chapter written and drawn especially for this volume. Wittily reinterpreting the Grimm Brothers classic tale `Briar Rose` ( Sleeping Beauty ) as a story of love, enchantment, and sibling rivalry, the opening chapter `The Curse Of Brambly Hedge` sets the stage for the story. In the second chapter, `The Lucky Road,` Lady Jain`s fairy-tale life turns out… [detailed...]

Description: Abdullah the rug merchant leaves his humdrum life far behind when he purchases a threadbare magic carpet from a mysterious stranger. Almost immediately, Abdullah is whisked off on a series of adventures that bear an uncanny resemblance to his own daydreams. He meets the love of his life only to have her kidnapped by a fierce djinn. With the help of the magic carpet--and an ornery genie--Abdullah sets out to rescue his bride-to-be. His travels take him to the fairy tale land of Ingary, the setting of this novel`s predecessor, Howl`s Moving Castle. As usual, Jones has constructed a wonderfully complicated plot, chock-full of magical mayhem. However, while her other interconnected novels ( Charmed Life , The Magicians of Caprona and The Lives of Christopher Chant ) can be read on their own, the final third of Abdullah`s story is likely to confuse readers not already acquainted with the characters introduced in the first book. Those familiar with Ingary will welcome the chance to return… [detailed...]
