Описание: Shortlisted for the Booker Prize, Bedford's autobiographical novel paints a vivid picture of life in 1920s Europe between the wars. Sybille Bedford placed the ambiguous and inescapable stuff of her own life at the center of her fiction, and in Jigsaw--her fourth and final novel, which was shortlisted for the 1989 Booker Prize--she did it with particular artistry. "What I had in mind," she was later to say, "was to build a novel out of the events and people who had made up, and marked, my early youth...Truth here was an artistic, not moral, requirement...It involved...writing about myself, my feelings, my actions." And so she assembled the puzzle pieces of her singular past into a picture of her "unsentimental education." We learn of a childhood spent alone with her father, "a stranded man of the world" living a life of "ungenteel poverty in quite grand surroundings," a ch teau, that is, deep in the German countryside, with wine but little else for him and his young daughter to hold body and soul together. We learn of her return to Italy and her mother, "the one character I wished to keep minor and knew all along that it could not be done," and the dark secret consuming her mother's life. Finally, she tells us how she lived with and learned from Aldous and Maria Huxley on the French Riviera, developing the sense of purpose and determination that made her the great writer she would become.

Описание: From the celebrated biographer of Nancy Mitford and Evelyn Waugh comes this brilliant first biography of the universally acclaimed English writer, Sybille Bedford. Passionate, liberated, fiercely independent, Bedford was a journalist, novelist and biographer, the author of ten books including a biography of Aldous Huxley and four novels all of which fictionalized her extraordinary life. Though born in Berlin, she grew up in Baden first with her distant, aristocratic father and then with her with her intellectual, narcissistic, morphine-addicted mother and her lover in France. She was a survivor with a German Jewish background of WWI as a child and WWII as an adult and of a life in exile not only in France, but Italy, New York and Los Angeles before finally settling in England. Bedford was ahead of her time in many ways, with great enthusiasm for life and all its sensual pleasures including friendship with bold faced names in the worlds of literature, food as well as in a high-powered lesbian literary network. Aldous Huxley became a mentor and Martha Gellhorn encouraged her to write her first novel, A Legacy (1956); in 1989 the novel Jigsaw was shortlisted for the Booker. In the 1960s, she wrote for magazine and newspapers, covering nearly 100 trials including those of Auschwitz officials and Jack Ruby's for the murder of Lee Harvey Oswald. Brenda Wineapple called her, "One of the finest stylists of the 20th century, bar none." Selina Hastings has brilliantly captured the fierce intelligence, wit, curiosity, compassion of the woman and the writer in all the richness of her character and achievements.

Описание: A holy war is sweeping France, razing cities and destroying the peaceful lives of those considered heretics. Sybille d'Astarac, born to pampered luxury, is a gifted female troubadour. But her poems grow dark as the Catholic crusade seeks to eradicate her sect. In the face of massacre, can Sybille survive the Inquisition? Will her love songs? A work of stunning historical fiction, Sybille displays Marion Meade's pitch-perfect understanding of strong women facing the harsh realities of life in medieval times. As Robin Morgan, author of The Anatomy of Freedom, writes, this book is "an inspiration for women and an illumination for all readers." Marion Meade studied at Northwestern University in Illinois and later received a master's from Columbia Graduate School of Journalism. She worked as a freelance writer and her articles have appeared in leading magazines and newspapers, including the New York Times, McCall's, the Village Voice, Ms. Magazine, and Cosmopolitan. Meade has written novels, biographies, and nonfiction books. Bitching was a significant contribution to the second phase of development in the feminist movement. She has written biographies of Victoria Woodhull (Free Woman), Eleanor of Aquitaine, Madame Blavatsky, Buster Keaton (Cut to the Chase), Woody Allen (The Unruly Life of Woody Allen), and Dorothy Parker (What Fresh Hell Is This?). She has published two historical novels: Sybille, which narrates the life of a woman troubadour in thirteenth century southern France, during Europe's first great holocaust, the Albigensian crusade; and Stealing Heaven, The Love Story of Heloise and Abelard. She lives in New York City.
Автор: Sybille Kr?mer, Christina Ljungberg Название: Thinking with Diagrams: The Semiotic Basis of Human Cognition ISBN: 1501511696 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781501511691 Издательство: Walter de Gruyter Цена: 123910.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: Diagrammatic reasoning is crucial for human cognition. It is hard to think of any forms of science or knowledge without the "intermediary world" of diagrams and diagrammatic representation in thought experiments and/or processes, manifested in forms as divers as notes, tables, schemata, graphs, drawings and maps. Despite their phenomenological and structural-functional differences, these forms of representation share a number of important attributes and epistemic functions. Combining aspects of linguistic and pictorial symbolism, diagrams go beyond the traditional distinction between language and image. They do not only represent, yet intervene in what is represented. Their spatiality, materiality and operativity establish a dynamic tool to exteriorize thinking, thus contributing to the idea of the extended mind. They foster imagination and problem solving, facilitate orientation in knowledge spaces and the discovery of unsuspected relationships. How can the diagrammatic nature of cognitive and knowledge practices be theorized historically as well as systematically? This is what this volume explores by investigating the semiotic dimension of diagrams as to knowledge, information and reasoning, e.g., the 'thing-ness' of diagrams in the history of art, the range of diagrammatic reasoning in logic, mathematics, philosophy and the sciences in general, including the knowledge function of maps.

Описание: Taking three different perspectives, this book looks at primary school children's language learning motivation and language attitudes. In adopting a longitudinal perspective, the book fills a research gap and provides a macro-level analysis of motivational development over time. It reveals a surprising amount of stability in primary school children's motivational and attitudinal development. The comparative perspective looks at the learners' affective dispositions with regard to English (theorized as a 'global language') and French (theorized as a 'national language'). The comparisons between global language and national language are relevant across the world, especially in situations where instruction in languages other than English struggles to get attention. The results reveal sizeable differences between the two languages, with children being substantially more motivated to learn English than to learn French. Finally, the explanatory section identifies key antecedents of the learners' motivational and attitudinal dispositions - and thereby opens up paths for intervention relevant for those working in the field of language instruction.
