Victory in Vietnam: The Official History of the People`s Army of Vietnam

2002 y.
Publisher: University Press of Kansas
Description: What was for the United States a struggle against creeping Communism in Southeast Asia was for the people of North Vietnam a `great patriotic war` that saw its eventual victory against a military Goliath. The story of that conflict as seen through the eyes--and the ideology--of the North Vietnamese military offers readers a view of that era never before seen. Victory in Vietnam is the People`s Army of Vietnam`s own account of two decades of struggle, now available for the first time in English. It is a definitive statement of the Vietnamese point of view concerning foreign intrusion in their country since before American involvement-and it reveals that many of the accepted truths in our own histories of the war are simply wrong. Thisdetailed account describes the ebb and flow of the war as seen from Hanoi. It discloses particularly difficult times in the PAVN`s struggle: 1955–59, when Diem almost destroyed the Communist movement in the South, 1961–62, when… [detailed...]

Elizabeth Greenhalgh
Victory through Coalition: Britain and France during the First World War (Cambridge Military Histories)

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Germany`s invasion of France in August 1914 represented a threat to the great power status of both Britain and France. The countries had no history of cooperation, yet the entente they had created in 1904 proceeded to win a war of unprecedented scale and ferocity. Elizabeth Greenhalgh here examines the huge problem of finding a suitable command relationship. Although it was not until 1918 that many of the war-winning expedients were adopted, Dr Greenhalgh shows that victory was ultimately achieved because of, rather than in spite of, coalition.

Joseph Conrad
Victory

2004 y.
Publisher: Oxford University Press
Description: Victory was the last of Conrad`s novels to be set in the Malay Archipelago. Sub-titled `An Island Tale`, it tells the story of Axel Heyst who, damaged by his dead father`s nihilistic philosophy, has retreated from the world of commerce and colonial exploration to live alone on the island of Sam-buran. But Heyst`s solitary existence ends when he rescues an English girl from her rapacious patron and takes her off to his retreat. She in turn recalls him to love and life, until the world breaks in on them once more with tragic consequences. In this love story Conrad created two of his psychologically most complex and compelling characters in a narrative of great erotic power. This new edition uses the English first edition text and has a new chronology and bibliography. Формат: 130 мм x 195 мм. [detailed...]

Description: Amazon.comAlthough 9 of the 10 stories in this debut collection are set in the author`s native India, it is Meera Nair`s great achievement that all the characters in Video are as recognizable as next-door neighbors. From the hilariously impatient villagers in Bangladesh waiting for a visit from Bill Clinton in `A Warm Welcome to the President, Insh`Allah!` to the nasally gifted computer programmer who hails from Mangalore in `The Curry Leaf Tree,` we feel we know these people. Even the ambiguous menage at a colonial resort in `A Certain Sense of Place` and the obnoxious yet bewildered husband from `Vishnukumar`s Valentine`s Day` are so finely drawn that we understand them. Family life with this extended cast of characters from Video islovingly and humorously depicted, from the children`s squabbles (one brother `hoarded complaints like sweets`) to the family`s favorite TV programs (the kids like Baywatch , the aged grandmother watches Understanding the Koran… [detailed...]

Video Acts: Single Channel Works from the Collections of Pamela and Richard Kramlich and the New Art Trust

2003 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionToday, video is a familiar tool at the artist`s disposal. But to those who experimented with the technology in the 1960s and 70s--when affordable equipment became commercially available--the capabilities inherent in the medium were unknown. Vito Acconci, Joan Jonas, and Bruce Nauman, among other American pioneers, used videotape to document and extend their performance work. Acconci, for one, produced conceptual, performance-based video work in the 70s that consisted of ruthless interrogations of the artist and viewer, as though defining the video medium were a matter of universal urgency. Video Acts provides a historical overview of video art created for display on a single monitor, with more than 100 pieces, dating from the mid-60s through 2000, including numerous landmarks in the development of this young medium by Marina Abramovic, Gilbert &, George, Acconci, Jonas, and Nauman, as well as more recent work by Tony Oursler, Darren Almond, Pipilotti Rist, and… [detailed...]

Video Art : A Guided Tour

2005 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book Description Video art dominates the international art world to such an extent that its heady days on the radical fringes are sometimes overlooked--often unknown. This book is an essential and highly entertaining guide to video art and its history. Elwes, herself a pioneer of early video, traces the story from the weighty Portapak equipment of the `60s and `70s to today`s digital technology, from early experiments in `real time` to the `new narrative` movement of the 1980s. She also examines video`s love-hate relationship with television, from its literal destruction in `scratch` video to its apparent absorption into the mainstream with works commissioned by Channel Four. Throughout its forty-year history, video has been allied to self-portraiture, landscape, painting and sculpture and has been co-opted as a political tool. Artists discussed include amongst many others Nam June Paik, Nan Hoover, The Duvet Brothers, Dara Birnbaum, Bill Viola, Pipilloti Rist, David Hall, Stuart… [detailed...]

Description: Over the last four decades, video art has undergone numerous transformations. If in the mid-1960s, video was used by artists to record performances created in an isolated studio, now with digital technology artists can compete with the magic of cinema and develop a singularly fertile exchange with it, which has been fundamental in creating the poetic language of video works today. An indispensable instrument in understanding video art, this volume offers a panoramic view of the history of this medium and the major artists in the collection active on the international scene, including Joseph Beuys, Fluxus, Bruce Nauman, William Kentridge, Tony Oursler, Martha Rosler, Sophie Calle, Bill Viola, Robert Wilson, to name a few.

Video Coding: The Second Generation Approach

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: In recent years there has been an increasing interest in Second Generation Image and Video Coding Techniques. These techniques introduce new concepts from image analysis that greatly improve the performance of the coding schemes for very high compression. This interest has been further emphasized by the future MPEG 4 standard. Second generation image and video coding techniques are the ensemble of approaches proposing new and more efficient image representations than the conventional canonical form. As a consequence, the human visual system becomes a fundamental part of the encoding/decoding chain. More insight to distinguish between first and second generation can be gained if it is noticed that image and video coding is basically carried out in two steps. First, image data are converted into a sequence of messages and, second, code words are assigned to the messages. Methods of the first generation put the emphasis on the second step, whereas methods of the second generation put it… [detailed...]
