Genealogies in the Library of Congress
This "Supplement to Genealogies in the Library of Congress" lists all genealogies in the Library of Congress that were catalogued between 1972 and 1976, showing acquisitions made by the Library in the five years since publication of the original two-volume Bibliography. Arranged alphabetically by family name, it adds several thousand works to the canon, clinching the Bibliography's position as the premier finding-aid in genealogy.
Pause & Effect
Interactive narrative is the cornerstone for many forms of digital media: web sites, interface design, gaming environments, and even artificial intelligence. In Pause & Effect, Mark Stephen Meadows examines the intersection of storytelling, visual art, and interactivity. He takes the key principles from these areas and applies them to the design, architecture, and development of successful interactive narrative. This provocative book will appeal to designers with its edgy aesthetic and artistic sensibility. Striking graphic and typographic imagery complement unique design features that encourage interactivity through varying levels of information, different navigational possibilities, and even flip-book animations.
Meu encontro com os outros
A sexualidade como função fisiológica e o desejo sexual como necessidade orgânica primária. A educação sexual – para homens e mulheres – como estratégia para solucionar não só o problema das doenças venéreas, mas outros como a desarmonia conjugal e as perversões sexuais. A legitimação e institucionalização da andrologia, a ciência do homem. A crítica à abstinência sexual socialmente imposta às mulheres solteiras e viúvas. Essas eram algumas das ideias defendidas pelo autoproclamado sexólogo e andrologista brasileiro José de Albuquerque, médico que, embora tenha enfrentado tabus, levantado polêmicas e causado rebuliço na elite carioca nos anos 1930, ficou esque...
Mein Weg als Musiker
Die Autobiographie Eugen Szenkars (1891–1977) gibt Zeugnis eines bewegten Lebens im Dienst der Musik. Seine Dirigentenlaufbahn führt den aus Budapest stammenden Szenkar, der schon mit knapp acht Jahren erstmals Haydns „Kindersinfonie“ dirigierte, über Prag und Salzburg nach Dresden. In Sachsen-Altenburg wird er jüngster und letzter Kapellmeister des Herzoglichen Hoftheaters. Als musikalischer Leiter wirkt er später in Frankfurt, Berlin und Köln, bevor ihn der Nationalsozialismus aus Deutschland vertreibt. Die Jahre der Emigration sind ausgefüllt mit Gastspielreisen, die ihn durch ganz Europa und bis nach Übersee führen. Er leitet die Staatliche Philharmonie in Moskau und baut als Gründer des Orquestra Sinfônica Brasileira in zehn Jahren das Musikleben Brasiliens auf. 1950 kehrt er nach Deutschland zurück, wo er als Opernchef in Mannheim, Köln und Düsseldorf eine Ära prägt. Der Grandseigneur der Musik hat sich als Vorkämpfer für Bartók, Mahler und etliche zeitgenössische Musiker wie Prokofjew, Chatschaturjan, Kodály, Wellesz, Berg und Mossolow schon früh den Ruf eines Dirigenten der Moderne erworben.
Heads of State and Government
Macmillan published the first edition of this text in 1985. It is a detailed reference to world leaders, monarchs, presidents and their equivalents, executive leaders plus other positions with authority vested in them; heads of ruling communist parties, military junta heads and some leaders with no formal post, but who wield supreme authority. This text is a reference to leaders, past and present, of the countries of the world. The second edition updates the first and includes the far reaching political changes which have taken place in Eastern Europe and the emergence of new states. The scope of the book has been broadened to include more international organisations, more regional government leaders, more governments in exile and colonial governors of the twentieth century.
