【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】Rocking in the Free World Popular Music and the Politics of Freedom in Postwar America【電子書籍】[ Nicholas Tochka ]

＜p＞Progressive and libertarian, anti-Communist and revolutionary, Democratic and Republican, quintessentially American but simultaneously universal. By the late 1980s, rock music had acquired a dizzying array of political labels. These claims about its political significance shared one common thread: that the music could set you free. ＜em＞Rocking in the Free World＜/em＞ explains how Americans came to believe they had learned the truth about rock 'n' roll, a truth shaped by the Cold War anxieties of the Fifties, the countercultural revolutions (and counter-revolutions) of the Sixties and Seventies, and the end-of-history triumphalism of the Eighties. How did rock 'n' roll become enmeshed with so many different competing ideas about freedom? And what does that story reveal about the promise-and the limits-of rock music as a political force in postwar America?＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

The book details the political involvement with Israelーand Palestineーof household names such as Eddie Cantor, Kirk Douglas, Elizabeth Taylor, Barbra Streisand, Vanessa Redgrave, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Robert De Niro, and Natalie Portman. It also spotlights the role of key behind-the-scenes players like Dore Schary, Arthur Krim, Arnon Milchan, and Haim Saban.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Bringing the story up to the moment, Shaw and Goodman contend that the Hollywood-Israel relationship might now be at a turning point.

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】Out of the Ordinary The Work of John Ronan Architects【電子書籍】[ John Ronan ]

＜p＞＜strong＞This publication on the work of John Ronan Architects explores the firm’s spatial-material approach to architecture and the underlying themes of its typologically diverse output.＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞Out of the Ordinary introduces a different approach to architecture which is based on spatial narrative rather than form and influenced by literature rather than appropriations from the world of art world. It advocates for architecture which privileges space over form, experience over image, and narrative over authorship. In previous decades, architectural production was constrained by the limits of technology; architects pushed on the boundaries imposed by technology and it gave them common purpose. Those limits are gone.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Over the preceding two decades it has been demonstrated that with enough technology (and money) anything is possible. What does an architect do when anything is possible? This is the question which confronts architects today, who now operate within a professional landscape where all is possible, but little has meaning. The “anything goes” mentality which currently prevails has resulted in innumerable self-referential “object” buildings which engage only with their architect’s ego, often resulting in an urban fabric of autonomous formal objects comprised of arbitrarily-applied design tropes which celebrate formal invention for its own sake. But what do architects leave society once the novelty of form has worn off? In this architectural age of arbitrary shape-making, devoid of context or meaning, Out of the Ordinary proposes an architecture of innovation rising from ordinary concerns, about relationships not form, which exposes new spatial relationships with diagrammatic clarity in a process of distillation what seeks to lay bare meaningful relationships between essential building elements.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】The Limits of Ferocity Sexual Aggression and Modern Literary Rebellion【電子書籍】[ Daniel Fuchs ]

＜p＞＜em＞The Limits of Ferocity＜/em＞ is a powerful critique of the culture of extremity represented in the works of D. H. Lawrence, Georges Bataille, Henry Miller, and Norman Mailer. Daniel Fuchs provides close readings of their literary and intellectual texts, which convey a loathing of middle-class culture or, as the case may be, society itself, in favor of a rebellion often expressed as an aggressive, even apocalyptic, sexuality. The Marquis de Sade is the precursor of this literature, which idealizes the self that violates taboos and laws in the search for erotic transcendence. Fuchs shows as well how these writers reflected and contributed to a broader cultural assault on liberal moderation and Freudian humanism. He explains Freud’s theories of culture and sexual aggression and describes how they were rejected or reworked, sometimes in favor of a liberating violence, by theorists including Wilhelm Reich, Norman O. Brown, and Gilles Deleuze and F?lix Guattari. Fuchs concludes with a reflection on books by William Burroughs, Bret Easton Ellis, and the sociologist Philip Rieff. This absorbing study illuminates the utopianism and narcissism in works of intellectual and artistic “ferocity” that characterized the turn in American consciousness from the period after the Second World War to the late 1960s and 1970s.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】Theory of Form Gerhard Richter and Art in the Pragmatist Age【電子書籍】[ Florian Klinger ]

＜p＞＜strong＞A pragmatist conception of artistic form, through a study of the painter Gerhard Richter.＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞In this study of the practice of contemporary painter Gerhard Richter, Florian Klinger proposes a fundamental change in the way we think about art today. In reaction to the exhaustion of the modernist-postmodernist paradigm's negotiation of the "essence of art," he takes Richter to pursue a pragmatist model that understands artistic form as action. Here form is no longer conceived according to what it ＜em＞says＜/em＞ーas a vehicle of expression, representation, or realization of something other than itselfーbut strictly according to what it ＜em＞does＜/em＞.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Through its doing, Klinger argues, artistic form is not only more real but also more shared than non-artistic reality, and thus enables interaction under conditions where it would otherwise not be possible. It is a human practice aimed at testing and transforming the limits of shared reality, urgently needed in situations where such reality breaks down or turns precarious. Drawing on pragmatist thought, philosophical aesthetics, and art history, Klinger's account of Richter's practice offers a highly distinctive conceptual alternative for contemporary art in general.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

＜p＞When through a dream Holy Spirit told the author that He wanted her to go higher in Him, she was confused. She had operated in the gifts of the Spirit since before she was a teenager. She still had many occasions when He gave her words or His power to help others. As she reflected on the dream and subsequent visions, Holy Spirit had another message: she was not even on the first step to higher. She decided to seek what He wanted her to do and how she could comply with His higher message. Thus began her journey to higher. She found much in the Bible, especially in Ezekiel, that would answer the many questions she had about what higher looked like. Much of her book includes Ezekiel's and others' experiences in going to a higher level in the Lord. She shares many of her supernatural occurrences during this journey. Readers interested in taking the limits off God are invited to join her on her journey. It has been a precious part of her life. She believes it will be so for others too.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】Rude Citizenship Jamaican Popular Music, Copyright, and the Reverberations of Colonial Power【電子書籍】[ Larisa Kingston Mann ]

＜p＞In this deep dive into the Jamaican music world filled with the voices of creators, producers, and consumers, Larisa Kingston MannーDJ, media law expert, and ethnographerーidentifies how a culture of collaboration lies at the heart of Jamaican creative practices and legal personhood. In street dances, recording sessions, and global genres such as the riddim, notions of originality include reliance on shared knowledge and authorship as an interactive practice. In this context, musicians, music producers, and audiences are often resistant to conventional copyright practices. And this resistance, Mann shows, goes beyond cultural concerns.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Because many working-class and poor people are cut off from the full benefits of citizenship on the basis of race, class, and geography, Jamaican music spaces are an important site of social commentary and political action in the face of the state’s limited reach and neglect of social services and infrastructure. Music makers organize performance and commerce in ways that defy, though not without danger, state ordinances and intellectual property law and provide poor Jamaicans avenues for self-expression and self-definition that are closed off to them in the wider society. In a world shaped by coloniality, how creators relate to copyright reveals how people will play outside, within, and through the limits of their marginalization.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】The Real Story Behind The Most Popular Social Media【電子書籍】[ Sparkle T. ]

＜p＞Sometimes, what one does not do or say can be quite annoying. If you've established a relationship, over time, it can be hurtful. Sometimes, your own family can be guilty of this. Well reader, this is the book for you.＜br /＞ In this informative mixed with lots of drama, mouth-dropping, page-turning tale, Regina & Yusuf are in their late forties, Misty & David early forties, Heather & Anthony early thirties and Zoe & Keyon late twenties. They are as close as four interesting, married couples could possibly be. Tightly knit like a newly woven pair of yarn baby booties was probably an accurate way of describing them. Two couples are physically attractive, while the other two aren't. They reside in neighboring parts of New England MA and met through jobs they'd worked in the past. They did everything together. Birthdays, graduations, holidays and when it came to their most private agendas, nothing was off limits. Deep down, each one thought they were better than the other. They knew each others personal business even when their own families didn't have a clue. Each pretending to have the more meaningful relationship. The husbands held decent jobs, which of course, sometimes, having to “work late” or fly out for a “business meeting”. They took care of their spoiled wives, paying the bills, all the while trying to find creative ways to fulfill voids they still had. The wives? Well, you know what they say? Misery loves company. An unspeakable, tragic event sends the couples catapulting into tremendous grief and despair. They do what is necessary to remain emotionally and financially afloat. Besides the wives taking care of the kids, cooking, cleaning and pleasuring their husbands on demand....they sought the comfort of a fast-growing, most popular and highly addictive social media site.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】Learning How to Work with Leather: Includes DIY Projects【電子書籍】[ Dueep Jyot Singh ]

＜p＞Table of Contents＜/p＞ ＜p＞Introduction＜br /＞ Tools and Equipment＜br /＞ Cutting out your Patterns＜br /＞ The Sewing Process＜br /＞ Saddle Stitching＜br /＞ Lacing＜br /＞ Cross Stitching＜br /＞ Silver or Gold Belt＜br /＞ Making Leather Wallets and Drawstring Pouches＜br /＞ Making a Leather Drawstring Pouch＜br /＞ How to Work with Suede＜br /＞ Conclusion＜br /＞ Where Do You Get the Leather?＜br /＞ Author Bio＜br /＞ Publisher＜/p＞ ＜p＞Introduction＜/p＞ ＜p＞When we were kids at school, and were living in a land, where we were taught crafts at school, as part of the educational curriculum, under the term of socially useful productive work, I remember some parents getting rather indignant, because their children were being taught how to work in leather!＜/p＞ ＜p＞Being a rather socially backward area, steeped in old tradition and also the traditional working professions fit for different people of different ethnicities and castes, these supposedly highborn families would not allow their children to work on anything, which included touching any material made out of pigskin, calfskin, and hide. These items were considered to be touched only by the lowest of the low, the untouchables.＜/p＞ ＜p＞They were the cobblers, who made things in leather, and people, supposedly of the highest caste never wore items made out of these natural products. That is why their shoes were always made out of wood and no way would they use leather belts, purses, bags, ornaments, jackets, or any other things which other people could wear with impunity.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Believe it or not, this system worked in the East, for millenniums, but luckily, today we are fortunate because we are not so old-fashioned and also, we do not believe in such outmoded traditions, and that is why we can enjoy one of the most enjoyable of all activities, working with leather and making your own accessories, which otherwise, would set you back hundreds of dollars, if you went and bought them off the shelves.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Believe me, if you are under the impression that working with leather is very difficult, it is definitely not so. If you have pushed a needle and thread, through a piece of fabric, you can consider leather to be just another fabric. It may be a bit harder to work on, but if the thread has been asked with ordinary candle wax, and your needle is sharp, there is absolutely no problem in stitching leather, and absolutely no limits to the things you can make out of leather. People have been doing so for millenniums, from jewelry to pouches to bags, to moccasins and shoes, to anything you want to make, which is going to be long-lasting and a thing to treasure.＜br /＞ So let us assemble our equipment first. There are plenty of leather making kits, on the Internet, but with their totally absurd prices of up to $225, surely, surely you are not going to waste all your money on buying such a case or kit, unless of course you want to become a traditional leather worker, and intend to sell the things you make?＜/p＞ ＜p＞Leather is normally made from the skin of animals. The whole skin is sold, and the portion of the back is stronger and thicker than the one at the edges. That is why, when you begin cutting shapes in leather, you would want to look at the thickness beforehand. The easiest to work with are leathers obtained from goats and sheep.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Sheepskin leather ? this is of course the cheapest, because it is so easily available, and that is why many people do plenty of embroidery work upon so that it looks more expensive.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】Dr. Faustus【電子書籍】[ Christopher Marlowe ]

＜p＞＜em＞＜strong＞Dr. Faustus＜/strong＞＜/em＞ ＜strong＞is a great Elizabethan tragedy by Christopher Marlow originally published in 1600.＜/strong＞ The story is based on an earlier anonymous classic German legend involving worldly ambition, black magic and surrender to the devil. It remains one of the most famous plays of the English Renaissance.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Dr. John Faustus, a brilliant, well-respected German doctor grows dissatisfied with the limits of human knowledge - logic, medicine, law, and religion, and decides that he has learned all that can be learned by conventional means. What is left for him, he thinks, but magic. His friends instruct him in the black arts, and he begins his new career as a magician by summoning up Mephastophilis, a devil. Despite Mephastophilis’s warnings about the horrors of hell, Faustus tells the devil to return to his master, Lucifer, with an offer of Faustus’s soul in exchange for twenty-four years of service from Mephastophilis.＜/p＞ ＜p＞On the final night before the expiration of the twenty-four years, Faustus is overcome by fear and remorse. He begs for mercy, but it is too late. At midnight, a host of devils appears and carries his soul off to hell.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Marlowe’s dramatic interpretation of the Faust legend is a theatrical masterpiece. With immense poetic skill, and psychological insight that greatly influenced the works of William Shakespeare and other dramatists, ＜em＞Dr. Faustus＜/em＞ combines soaring poetry, psychological depth, and grand stage spectacle. Marlowe created powerful scenes that invest the work with tragic dignity, among them the doomed man’s calling upon Christ to save him and his ultimate rejection of salvation for the embrace of Helen of Troy.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】Speech & Debate (TCG Edition)【電子書籍】[ Stephen Karam ]

＜p＞“You might think a play that grapples with serious modern social issuesーhomophobia, teenage alienation, the limits of online privacyーwould have no room for a warbling Abraham Lincoln doing an interpretive dance. But then you might not expect to encounter a piece of theater as ingenious and cannily plotted as Stephen Karam’s ＜em＞Speech & Debate＜/em＞. It is a suspenseful tale that fuses keen-eyed civic critique with riotous and even campy humor.” ? Celia Wren, ＜em＞Washington Post＜/em＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞“Hilarious…＜em＞Speech & Debate＜/em＞’s real accomplishment is its picture of the borderland between late adolescence and adulthood, where grown-up ideas and ambition coexist with childish will and bravado…We never feel we’re being educated, just immensely entertained.” ? Caryn James, ＜em＞New York Times＜/em＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞“A provocative play…A lot of shows about teens ring inauthentic. Not this one.” ? Chris Jones, ＜em＞Chicago Tribune＜/em＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞“Stephen Karam’s savvy comedy is bristling with vitality, wicked humor, terrific dialogue, and a direct pipeline into the zeitgeist of contemporary youth.” ? David Rooney, ＜em＞Variety＜/em＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞In this unconventional dark comedy, three misfit high school students in Salem, Oregon form a unique debate club, complete with a musical version of ＜em＞The Crucible＜/em＞, an unusual podcast, and a plot to take down their corrupt drama teacher. With his signature wit, Karam traces the cohort’s attempts to fend off the menace of encroaching adulthood with caustic humor and subversive antics.＜/p＞ ＜p＞＜strong＞Stephen Karam＜/strong＞’s plays include ＜em＞The Humans＜/em＞ (Tony Award and Pulitzer Prize finalist), ＜em＞Sons of the Prophet＜/em＞ (Pulitzer Prize finalist), and ＜em＞Speech & Debate＜/em＞.

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】Cartoline rock Guida imperfetta all'ascolto di centouno canzoni ≪definitive≫ della storia del rock【電子書籍】[ Francesco Villari ]

＜p＞≪[...] Cartoline Rock, pieno dell’amore e dell’attenzione che l’autore ha per la musica tutta, racconta proprio questo: l’insindacabilit? del gusto personale (che resta comunque off limits, zona sacra); il rifiuto di verit? rivelate unilateralmente quando si parla di arte; l’utilit? di ricordare a nuove generazioni che la qualit? ? spesso inversamente proporzionale alla quantit?, e che una “piccola” canzone pu? raccontare una “grande” poesia. Le canzoni, quelle belle, sono scorciatoie per le nuvole. Tutta la musica ? un’offerta, un gesto di offerta rivolto a qualcuno cui si porge la possibilit? di fare propria la percezione intima di un altro essere umano. E se questa alchimia riesce, allora quella musica appartiene anche all’altro, come se l’avesse scritta in prima persona. In quel momento ? sua e la reinterpreta dentro di s? in modo unico e irripetibile. Cos? la musica, nata nel privato e resa pubblica, torna dolcemente privata. Cos? il piccolo miracolo fatto da uno diventa la magia di tutti. Scrive Pier Paolo Pasolini: “La musica squarcia il velo della realt? per portare la persona nell’oltre”≫.＜/p＞ ＜p＞(Dalla prefazione di Vittorio Nocenzi)＜/p＞ ＜p＞Francesco Villari (Reggio Calabria, 25 aprile 1973) ? scrittore, sceneggiatore, autore teatrale e giornalista.

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】Monrovia Modern Urban Form and Political Imagination in Liberia【電子書籍】[ Danny Hoffman ]

＜p＞In ＜em＞Monrovia Modern＜/em＞ Danny Hoffman uses the ruins of four iconic modernist buildings in Monrovia, Liberia, as a way to explore the relationship between the built environment and political imagination. Hoffman shows how the E. J. Roye tower and the Hotel Africa luxury resort, as well as the unfinished Ministry of Defense and Liberia Broadcasting System buildings, transformed during the urban warfare of the 1990s from symbols of the modernist project of nation-building to reminders of the challenges Monrovia's residents face. The transient lives of these buildings' inhabitants, many of whom are ex-combatants, prevent them from making place-based claims to a right to the city and hinder their ability to think of ways to rebuild and repurpose their built environment. Featuring nearly 100 of Hoffman's color photographs, ＜em＞Monrovia Modern＜/em＞ is situated at the intersection of photography, architecture, and anthropology, mapping out the possibilities and limits for imagining an urban future in Monrovia and beyond.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。
