Download or read book Vanessa Bell written by Frances Spalding and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2021-04-01 with total page 454 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The definitive and authorised biography of the artist Vanessa Bell. Even through the lens of the twenty-first century, the story of Vanessa Bell's life is unorthodox. A powerful magnetic figure, Bell lived at the heart of the Bloomsbury Group and was often the core figure around which the disparate individuals of the movement revolved. Her art and designs – so often overshadowed by her sister Virginia Woolf's writings and fame and by the interest in her own unconventional life – made a significant contribution to the history of the Bloomsbury Group. Yet, until this authorised biography was written, she has remained a largely silent and enigmatic figure. In this captivating account, acclaimed art historian and biographer Frances Spalding restores Bell to the heart of the Bloomsbury Group, illuminating an exceptional life and the free-spirited circle among which she lived.

Download or read book Represented Reporters written by Barbara Korte and published by transcript Verlag. This book was released on 2015-07-31 with total page 189 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: War correspondents are prominent actors in the media world. They took hold in the cultural imaginary soon after their profession had been created in the mid-19th century. With a particular focus on Britain, this study investigates the representation of war correspondents from Victorian times to the present, in memoirs, novels and films. Such representations react to prevailing notions that exist about war reporters and participate in their further construction. With its cultural approach, this book complements studies of war correspondents in media and communication studies, history and ethnology.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A chilling cozy mystery that will have you gripping the edge of your beach chair ... Escape to the sun-kissed Aerie Islands, where reporter Roland "Beanie" Bean has planned the perfect family vacation. But as the ocean breeze whispers through the palm trees, danger lurks in the shadows, and Beanie finds himself entangled in another mystery. On an idyllic drive to a picturesque sandbar, Beanie's family vacation takes a sharp turn when a swerving car nearly runs them off the road. Moments later, they discover the car abandoned, crashed into the jungle brush. Down a rocky cliff, Beanie spots a nervous trio on the beach who quickly flee the scene. But the real shock comes when a bloodied young man—none other than a lifeguard from their resort—stumbles towards Beanie and collapses at his feet. Beanie's former intern, Joshua, now a fledgling reporter for the Aerie Observer, arrives on the scene to cover the car crash. But the plot thickens when it's revealed that the lifeguard didn't die from the accident—he was poisoned by lethal snake venom. With a reluctant Beanie by his side, the dynamic duo dives into a treacherous investigation to uncover the truth behind the deadly mystery. As they peel back the layers of the lifeguard's shadowy past, Beanie and Joshua find themselves tangled in a sinister web of secrets that stretches throughout the resort staff. Could the culprit be a fellow employee with a dark motive? Or perhaps the lifeguard's vengeful ex-girlfriend, a zoo worker with access to venomous serpents? In Summer Vacation Murder, Beanie and Joshua race against the clock to unravel a tapestry of clues and red herrings that lead them deeper into danger. This charming holiday cozy mystery will keep you guessing with twists and turns that lead to an unforgettable conclusion. Will Beanie and Joshua crack the case before they become the next victims of a devious killer? Grab your sunhat and find out in this sizzling summer page-turner!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Humorous essays from the #1 New York Times–bestselling author on travel, late-life parenting, and other perils. P. J. O’Rourke, hailed as “one of America’s most hilarious writers” by Time, is the author of the classic travelogue Holidays in Hell, in which he traversed the globe on a fun-finding mission to what were then some of the most desperate places on the planet, including Warsaw, Managua, and Belfast. In Holidays in Heck, O’Rourke embarks on supposedly more comfortable and allegedly less dangerous travels—often with family in tow—which mostly leave him wishing he were under artillery fire again. The essays take O’Rourke on a whirlwind of adventures, from the National Mall in Washington to a family ski vacation (to the Aspen of the Midwest—Ohio—where the highest point of elevation is the six-foot ski instructor that his wife thinks is cute). He also experiences a harrowing horseback ride across the mountains of Kyrgyzstan. The result is a hilarious and often moving portrait of life in the fast lane—only this time as a husband and father. “In this cheeky follow-up to Holidays in Hell, former war correspondent O’Rourke trades battle zones for more appealing travel destinations, often with his family in tow . . . O’Rourke loses none of his sly humor, finding many opportunities to lampoon American politics under his new guise as a traveling family man.” —Publishers Weekly “[O’Rourke] provides colorful, earthy descriptive passages regarding stag hunts in Britain, extreme horseback riding in the wilds of Kyrgyzstan, a poignant look at his bout with cancer and a brief jaunt to Kabul, Afghanistan.” —Kirkus Reviews

Download or read book Kentucky and the Great War written by David J. Bettez and published by University Press of Kentucky. This book was released on 2016-10-07 with total page 436 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The award-winning author of Kentucky Marine “has crafted an excellent account of how World War I impacted Kentucky socially, economically, and politically” (Journal of America’s Military Past). From five thousand children marching in a parade, singing, “Johnnie get your hoe . . . Mary dig your row,” to communities banding together to observe Meatless Tuesdays and Wheatless Wednesdays, Kentuckians were loyal supporters of their country during the First World War. Kentucky had one of the lowest rates of draft dodging in the nation, and the state increased its coal production by 50 percent during the war years. Overwhelmingly, the people of the Commonwealth set aside partisan interests and worked together to help the nation achieve victory in Europe. David J. Bettez provides the first comprehensive analysis of the impact of the Great War on Bluegrass society, politics, economy, and culture, contextualizing the state’s involvement within the national experience. His exhaustively researched study examines the Kentucky Council of Defense—which sponsored local war-effort activities—military mobilization and preparation, opposition and dissent, and the role of religion and higher education in shaping the state’s response to the war. It also describes the efforts of Kentuckians who served abroad in military and civilian capacities, and postwar memorialization of their contributions. Kentucky and the Great War explores the impact of the conflict on women’s suffrage, child labor, and African American life. In particular, Bettez investigates how black citizens were urged to support a war to make the world “safe for democracy” even as their civil rights and freedoms were violated in the Jim Crow South. This engaging and timely social history offers new perspectives on an overlooked aspect of World War I.

Download or read book Encyclopedia of Journalists on Film written by Richard R. Ness and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2020-01-15 with total page 533 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From All the President’s Men to Zodiac, some of the most compelling films of the last century have featured depictions of journalists in action. While print journalism struggles to survive, the emergence of news from social media outlets continues to expand, allowing the world to be kept informed on a second-bysecond basis. Despite attacks on journalists—both verbal and physical—a free press remains a crucial bastion for civilized society. And just as the daily news reflects the current state of affairs, films about journalism represent how reporting has evolved over the last few centuries. In Encyclopedia of Journalists on Film, Richard R. Ness provides a comprehensive examination of the fourth estate in cinema—from newspaper reporters to today’s cyber journalists. In this volume, Ness provides in-depth descriptions and analyses of more than five hundred significant films, from the silent era to the present, including international productions and made-for-television movies. The entries focus on the image of the press on screen and ethical issues or concerns raised about the practices of the profession. Collectively, the entries demonstrate that there is a recognizable genre of journalism films with definable plot patterns and iconography. Each entry features: Major credits including directors, writers, and producers List of characters and the actors who portray them Running time Plot synopsis Analysis of the role of journalism Many of the entries feature critical reviews as well as cogent selections of dialogue. Films discussed here include comedies such as His Girl Friday (1940), nail-biting thrillers like Foreign Correspondent (1940) and The Parallax View (1974), social commentaries like Network (1976) and The China Syndrome (1979), dramas like Citizen Kane (1941) and The Post (2017), and of course, Academy Award winners All the President’s Men (1976) and Spotlight (2015). A definitive study of a film genre, Encyclopedia of Journalists on Film will be of interest to film scholars, researchers, journalists, and students of popular culture.
