Scoring from Second: Writers on Baseball

2007 y.
Publisher: Bison Books
Description: Why do accomplished writers (and grown-ups) like Ron Carlson, Rick Bass, and Michael Chabon (to name but a few of those represented here) still obsess over their baseball days? What is it about this green game of suspense that not only moves us but can also move us to flights of lyrical writing? In Scoring from Second: Writers on Baseball some of the literary lights of our day answer these questions with essays, reminiscences, and meditations on the sport that is America’s game but also a deeply personal experience for player, observer, and fan alike. Here writers as different as Andre Dubus and Leslie Epstein, Chabon and Floyd Skloot, Michael Martone and William Least Heat-Moon reflect on the game they grew up with, the players who thrilled them, and the lessons that baseball holds for us all. From the one-season wonder to the long-haul heroes to the hall of fame, the game that has framed so many American summers—and lives—comes to quirky, instructive, and always entertaining life… [detailed...]

Scoring in the Red Zone: How to Lead Successfully When the Pressure Is On

2005 y.
Publisher: —
Description: The `Red Zone.` The last 20 yards from the opponent`s goal line. It`s difficult to score there because the defending team can concentrate its efforts. Likewise, the offensive team has less area in which to maneuver. It takes the focused and precise execution of all players doing their assigned tasks to advance the ball in the Red Zone and score. In business and in every other area of life, we encounter many Red Zones-situations where the pressure is on and our `wiggle room` is limited. It`s there where we have to draw on preparation, experience, and strength of character if we hope to reach our objective. We need a solid game plan -- and that`s exactly what Scoring in the Red Zone provides. Through personal anecdotes, illustrations from sports, and timeless wisdom, Spencer Tillman challenges you and your team to win when the pressure is on. [detailed...]

Maria T. Miliora
Scorsese Psyche on Screen: Roots of Themes and Characters in the Films

2004 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionThis study examines the life and work of acclaimed film director Martin Scorsese, showing that his films reflect his experiences growing up in a Sicilian-American-Catholic family in the tough neighborhood of New York?s Little Italy. The study links the personal Scorsese, his roots, and his ethical and religious attitudes. The work examines many films from Boxcar Bertha (1972) to Bringing out the Dead (1999), with special attention given to Gangs of New York (2002) as a vehicle for Scorsese?s return to his roots. The Last Temptation of Christ (1988) is analyzed as a template for the Scorsese opus. The study begins with a biography of Scorsese, and then describes his films from 1963 to 2002, providing plot summaries, themes, and characters. The body of the work analyzes films in terms of male sexuality, narcissism, violence, and the place of women in the director?s personal and cinematic world. In addition to… [detailed...]

Scorsese: A Journey Through the American Psyche

2005 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionFrom the violence-drenched streets of Taxi Driver, to King of Comedy`s crazed celebrity stalker, to the urban warfare of Casino and Gangs of New York, Martin Scorsese`s films are definitive works that reveal the dark heart of American culture. This new anthology compiles the best interviews, reviews, and articles pertaining to a man rightfully hailed as one of the most talented and respected directors in the history of film. Rising to prominence in the cinematic golden age of the 1970s, Scorsese led a group of young iconoclastic directors who took filmmaking to new artistic heights while advancing it as a powerful form of social commentary. This carefully chosen collection, the fifth title in the Ultrascreen series, examines Scorsese`s personal history and passions, and how they have informed and inspired his filmmaking. Spanning several decades, this anthology charts the evolution of modern cinema through the work of one of its masters. [detailed...]

Mark Desmond Nicholls
Scorsese`s Men: Melancholia and the Mob

2004 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionMartin Scorsese is the most influential director of his generation and, with his work regularly included among the top 20 films of all time, his place in cinema history is assured. Scorsese?s films have defined the cinematic essence of each decade since the 1960s and have set the standard of New Hollywood cinema. Mark Nicholls traces Martin Scorsese?s central theme of melancholia, nostalgia, and loss through five of the director?s finest films: The Age of Innocence, Raging Bull, Taxi Driver, Goodfellas, and Cape Fear. Scorsese?s Men reflects on the heroes of these films and their `tribal groups`: 19th-century New York Society, the Italian American Mob, and the Yuppified New South. Nicholls asserts that for all of this melancholic man?s perversions, he ultimately becomes a universally adored and culturally empowered Superman of loss. [detailed...]

Scotland and the Music Hall, 1850-1914 (Studies in Popular Culture)

2003 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book Description While London dominated the wider British music hall in the 19th century, Glasgow, the Second City of the Empire, was the center of a vigorous Scottish performing culture, one developed in a Presbyterian society with a very different experience of industrial urbanization. It drew heavily on older fairground and traditional forms in developing its own brand of this new urban entertainment. The book explores all aspects of the Scottish music hall industry, from the lives and professional culture of performers and impresarios to the place of music hall in Scottish life. It also explores issues of national identity, both in terms of Scottish audiences` responses to the promotion of imperial themes in songs and performing material, and inthe version of Scottish identity projected by Lauder and other kilted acts at home and abroad in America, Canada, Australia and throughout the English-speaking world.

Ian Gow
Scotland`s Lost Houses

2006 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Since 1945, it has been estimated, over 200 major houses have been lost in Scotland, from Robert Adam`s delightful Balbardie to the magnificent Hamilton Palace, which had it survived would today be a tourist attraction to rival Chatsworth. Some fell victim to fire, or decay, many were deliberately demolished because of the prohibitive cost of their upkeep. But fortunately photographs remain, as a remarkably varied, often eerie record of these great lost houses. Sometimes, as with Annan`s extraordinary photographs of Hamilton Palace in its prime, they provide a fitting record of an architectural masterpiece. In other cases, as with Murthly, the unique pictorial record is a painstaking - and heartbreaking - sequence of photographs taken by the demolition contractor of the process of blowing it up. Of the Palladian villa of Amisfield, all that remains are four pictures: nothing more. In this authoritative and beautiful book, Ian Gow traces the history of 20 of the greatest of these… [detailed...]
