Book Synopsis From Page to Screen / Vom Buch zum Film by : Manuel Almagro-Jiménez
Download or read book From Page to Screen / Vom Buch zum Film written by Manuel Almagro-Jiménez and published by Narr Francke Attempto Verlag. This book was released on 2020-10-05 with total page 413 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For a long time now, women have struggled for the vindication of their rights and for their visibility. This struggle may seem a story of success, maybe not complete or equal for all women, but at least one which slowly but surely carries with it the promise of equality for all women. However, a closer look reveals that in various fields of culture the representation of women frequently undergoes a manipulation which makes the image of women lose the intention initially attempted. This is often the case with adaptations of literary texts to the screen, when the initial literary message is changed because of, for example, marketing demands or some ideological stance. Rarely do we find the opposite case where the indifferent or emasculated original female characters are turned into guardians and/or apologists of feminine power. The present volume focuses precisely on the way in which the image of women is modified in films and TV series, when compared with the original literary texts.
Book Synopsis Voices past and present by : Peter E. Raper
Download or read book Voices past and present written by Peter E. Raper and published by UJ Press. This book was released on 2020-01-01 with total page 491 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The preservation of South Africa’s indigenous languages – the extinct Bushman and Khoikhoi languages in particular – is a pressing concern. Voices Past and Present serves as a comprehensive, scholarly and practical source for documenting and preserving some of them. The subcontinent of Africa has been inhabited by Bushman, Khoikhoi and Bantu-speaking peoples for thousands of years, and, for the past few centuries, also by European-speaking peoples. Contact between these peoples brought about changes in the different languages. As a result, modern languages are no longer identical to the original ones, many of which, especially in the case of the Bushman and Khoikhoi languages, have become extinct. Words used in ancient times and recorded long ago often bear no resemblance to their modern counterparts. In this book, Peter E. Raper provides a detailed investigation of the earliest recordings of words available. Words from Old Cape dialects are compared for correspondences in sound and meaning to words from 29 Bushman languages and dialects, as well as to words from Nama, Koranna, Griqua, !Xuhn, !Xoon, Khwe and N/uu. Voices Past and Present provides an extensive corpus of words that can be further utilised for the purpose of shedding light on the specific languages from which the recorded words (and names) were derived, on historical distribution of the various groups, on the classification of the different languages and peoples, for determining relationships or otherwise between the different languages, potentially identifying components of place-names and ethnonyms from ancient and extinct languages, and elucidating other matters that have long vexed scholars who have complained about a lack of recorded data.
Download or read book Energy Autonomy written by Hermann Scheer and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-05-04 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For 200 years industrial civilization has relied on the combustion of abundant and cheap carbon fuels. But continued reliance has had perilous consequences. On the one hand there is the insecurity of relying on the world's most unstable region - the Middle East - compounded by the imminence of peak oil, growing scarcity and mounting prices. On the other, the potentially cataclysmic consequences of continuing to burn fossil fuels, as the evidence of accelerating climate change shows. Yet there is a solution: to make the transition to renewable sources of energy and distributed, decentralized energy generation. It is a model that has been proven, technologically, commercially and politically, as Scheer comprehensively demonstrates here. The alternative of a return to nuclear power - again being widely advocated - he shows to be compromised and illusory. The advantages of renewable energy are so clear and so overwhelming that resistance to them needs diagnosis - which Scheer also provides, showing why and how entrenched interests and one-dimensional structures of thinking oppose the transition, and what must be done to overcome these obstacles. The new book from the award-winning author of THE SOLAR ECONOMY and A SOLAR MANIFESTO demonstrates why the transition to renewable energy is essential and how it can be done.

Book Synopsis Reception Of Scottish Enlight Germany by : Heiner F. Klemme
Download or read book Reception Of Scottish Enlight Germany written by Heiner F. Klemme and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2000-11-15 with total page 5260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Heiner Klemme has put together an important collection. It will be useful to historians of eighteenth-century philosophy and scholars of the German, Scottish and European Enlightenment, as well as to anyone interested in the way that ideas are transmitted, and often altered, though the process of translation.' -- Richard B. Sher, 18th-Century Scottish Studies Society 'Heiner Klemme is one of the few German experts on the Scottish Enlightenment and its influence on the formation of the German Enlightenment. Since it is impossible to understand the philosophical discussion in eighteenth-century Germany after the death of Christian Wolff unless we take into account the impact of the writings of Hutcheson, Hume, Ferguson, Smith, Reid, Beattie, and others, these editions will be indispensable. Dr. Klemme's introductions will be most helpful for putting these writings into their proper historical context. Reception of the Scottish Enlightenment in Germany will certainly engender further research on this topic.' --Reinhard Brandt, Philipps-Universität Marburg Scottish philosophy had a decisive impact in the eighteenth century, not only on the English-speaking world but also on the Enlightenment in central Europe. That impact was perhaps most greatly felt in Germany, where the advancement of Scottish moral sense philosophy, Hume's Scepticism and Common Sense philosophy was marked by a series of important translations. Six of the most significant texts, most of them very rare today, are reprinted here. Although some of the works by Scottish philosophers were known and discussed before the death of Christian Wolff, their importance increased considerably after the decline of German school metaphysics around the middle of the century. English at that time was less widely known, so the German editions became highly influential. The translations were often by important German Enlightenment thinkers and philosophers such as Lessing and Christian Garve, and several were provided with interesting introductions and commentaries by their translators and editors. In the case of Hume's first Enquiry, the editor Johann Georg Sulzer, an adherent of Wolffian metaphysics, commented extensively on Hume's philosophy. It was this translation that famously woke Kant from his 'dogmatic slumber'. The definitive source material collected in this set, along with the extensive new editorial material, makes it possible for the first time to fully assess the significance of this important period. --collects some of the most important translations of great Scottish Enlightenment works into German --definitive source material for the German Enlightenment in general and particularly for Kant studies --includes very scarce translations by major figures of the German Enlightenment --each volume has a new introduction by Heiner F. Klemme, co-editor of David Hume in Deutschland

Download or read book Ski Films written by Bryan Senn and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2022-05-02 with total page 427 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Skiing in movies, like the sport itself, grew more prevalent beginning in the 1930s, when it was a pastime of the elite, with depictions reflecting changes in technique, fashion and social climate. World War II saw skiing featured in a dozen films dealing with that conflict. Fueled by postwar prosperity, the sport exploded in the 1950s--filmmakers followed suit, using scenes on snow-covered slopes for panoramic beauty and the thrill of the chase. Through the free-spirited 1960s and 1970s, the downhill lifestyle shussed into everything from spy thrillers to beach party romps. The extreme sports era of the 1980s and 1990s brought snowboarding to the big screen. This first ever critical history of skiing in film chronicles a century of alpine cinema, with production information and stories and quotes from directors, actors and stuntmen.
