Book Synopsis The Divo and the Duce by : Giorgio Bertellini
Download or read book The Divo and the Duce written by Giorgio Bertellini and published by University of California Press. This book was released on 2019-01-15 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At publication date, a free ebook version of this title will be available through Luminos, University of California Press's Open Access publishing program. Visit www.luminosoa.org to learn more. In the post–World War I American climate of isolationism, nativism, democratic expansion of civic rights, and consumerism, Italian-born star Rodolfo Valentino and Italy’s dictator Benito Mussolini became surprising paragons of authoritarian male power and mass appeal. Drawing on extensive archival research in the United States and Italy, Giorgio Bertellini’s work shows how their popularity, both political and erotic, largely depended on the efforts of public opinion managers, including publicists, journalists, and even ambassadors. Beyond the democratic celebrations of the Jazz Age, the promotion of their charismatic masculinity through spectacle and press coverage inaugurated the now-familiar convergence of popular celebrity and political authority. This is the first volume in the new Cinema Cultures in Contact series, coedited by Giorgio Bertellini, Richard Abel, and Matthew Solomon.

Download or read book North Arrow written by Dennis Barone and published by Quale Press. This book was released on 2008 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fiction. These seventeen stories ranging in length from a single paragraph to fifty pages explore issues of voice and silence, identity and its erasure in a style that is often poetic, frequently dark and somber, and occasionally humorous. From many different narrative perspectives, the author offers a jeremiad of sorts, urging readers to examine their own virtues and vices before venerating or condemning others. The title story, for example, describes the difficulties faced by a young woman veterinarian in the Netherlands. Not all of her problems originate with the men she meets who are skeptical about a woman's ability to work with large farm animals. In this bildungsroman of thematic oppositions--youth / age, elite / working class / north / south, city / country, male / female--the protagonist, Jacqueline, must come to know herself before she can exude the confidence she needs in her work and her life. The author doesn't let himself off the hook, either. In an autobiographical narrative, "Northfield," he discusses the inability to remember and the partial failures that result from this shortcoming. Shorter pieces in the book in various ways illustrate a number of human foibles and follies that spring from the limitations of knowledge and recall. Other books by Dennis Barone include PRECISE MACHINE, THE WALLS OF CIRCUMSTANCE, and TEMPLE OF THE RAT.
Book Synopsis A Hero on Mount St. Helens by : Melanie Holmes
Download or read book A Hero on Mount St. Helens written by Melanie Holmes and published by University of Illinois Press. This book was released on 2019-05-16 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Serendipity placed David Johnston on Mount St. Helens when the volcano rumbled to life in March 1980. Throughout that ominous spring, Johnston was part of a team that conducted scientific research that underpinned warnings about the mountain. Those warnings saved thousands of lives when the most devastating volcanic eruption in U.S. history blew apart Mount St. Helens, but killed Johnston on the ridge that now bears his name. Melanie Holmes tells the story of Johnston's journey from a nature-loving Boy Scout to a committed geologist. Blending science with personal detail, Holmes follows Johnston through encounters with Aleutian volcanoes, his work helping the Portuguese government assess the geothermal power of the Azores, and his dream job as a volcanologist with the U.S. Geological Survey. Interviews and personal writings reveal what a friend called "the most unjaded person I ever met," an imperfect but kind, intelligent young scientist passionately in love with his life and work and determined to make a difference.

Book Synopsis Trade Unions and the State by : Chris Howell
Download or read book Trade Unions and the State written by Chris Howell and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2009-01-10 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The collapse of Britain's powerful labor movement in the last quarter century has been one of the most significant and astonishing stories in recent political history. How were the governments of Margaret Thatcher and her successors able to tame the unions? In analyzing how an entirely new industrial relations system was constructed after 1979, Howell offers a revisionist history of British trade unionism in the twentieth century. Most scholars regard Britain's industrial relations institutions as the product of a largely laissez faire system of labor relations, punctuated by occasional government interference. Howell, on the other hand, argues that the British state was the prime architect of three distinct systems of industrial relations established in the course of the twentieth century. The book contends that governments used a combination of administrative and judicial action, legislation, and a narrative of crisis to construct new forms of labor relations. Understanding the demise of the unions requires a reinterpretation of how these earlier systems were constructed, and the role of the British government in that process. Meticulously researched, Trade Unions and the State not only sheds new light on one of Thatcher's most significant achievements but also tells us a great deal about the role of the state in industrial relations.
Book Synopsis Outer Banks Shipwrecks by : Mary Ellen Riddle
Download or read book Outer Banks Shipwrecks written by Mary Ellen Riddle and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2017-04-03 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ever since ships began navigating the coast of North Carolina, the area has maintained a reputation for being dangerous. Weather, geography, war, piracy, and human error have all contributed to this dense shipwreck zone. Today, the region that stretches from the Currituck Outer Banks south to Bogue Banks is referred to as the "Graveyard of the Atlantic." From the 1585 grounding of the English ship Tiger off the Outer Banks to the 2012 loss of the Bounty, more than 2,000 shipwrecks have occurred in the Graveyard of the Atlantic. The stories behind the shipwrecks illustrate the best and worst of mankind, showing courage and compassion as well as the atrocities of war. This history informs readers about commerce, technology, war, environment, maritime life, and the complexity of the human element.

Book excerpt: In 1999, the cows stopped traffic all over Chicago. In 2000, the cows took over New York. Now for 2001, the cows are heading back West. Introducing CowParade Houston, a companion book that will keep the cows and their civic pride around long after the summer's events are over. As with every CowParade, the sculptures in CowParade Houston are totally original, created by local artists and sponsored by local businesses. Each city mounts a street- and plaza-side display of approximately 300 cows, every one of which is featured in full-color in the book. Each cow from Houston's Flamencow to Cowpernicus will be labeled with the artist, the sponsor, and the cow's location. Since its first staging in Zurich, Switzerland, in 1998, CowParade has been hugely successful in each of its host cities. Post-parade auctions of the sculptures generated $3.5 million in Chicago and $4 million in New York. Proceeds from CowParade Houston will go toward a $345 million expansion of The Texas Children's Hospital and Texas Children's Cancer Center.
