Описание: In 1721 a 20-year-old soprano employed at the princely court in Kthen married the courts Kapellmeister, set to become the greatest composer of the age.

Experience the "Real Las Vegas" Through Writings About Reinvention
In a wide-ranging anthology that moves from the ancient artists of southern Nevada who carved petroglyphs into rock walls to contemporary family trauma, 10 Las Vegas essayists examine the weight of the past on the present--and, perhaps, the future. Set in and around a city with its own peculiar and complicated relationship to the very idea of history, these eclectic stories, essays, and poems examine the topic from a variety of surprising directions.
Go back in time to visit the basket-weaving tribes that predate the city's founding. Experience the heady midcentury days of freewheeling law enforcement. Follow an abuse survivor as she revisits the sites of family torment. Join a young African-American man as he experiences a racial epiphany in the county morgue. Listen in as a photographic model ponders the psychology of the men who hire her to recreate urgent moments from their pasts.
Through such stories, this collection--the 10th volume in the Las Vegas Writes series--presents a singular view of a city that's forever negotiating the uneasy passage between then and now.
Автор: Mark Rolfe Название: The Reinvention of Populist Rhetoric in The Digital Age ISBN: 9811021600 ISBN-13(EAN): 9789811021602 Издательство: Springer Рейтинг: Цена: 83850.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: This highly original work considers the rhetoric of political actors and commentators who identify digital media as the means to a new era of politics and democracy. Placing this rhetoric in a historical and intellectual context, it provides a compelling explanation of the reinvention and thematic recurrence of democratic discourse. The author investigates the populist sources of rhetoric used by digital politics enthusiasts as outsiders inaugurating new eras of democracy with digital media, such as Barack Obama and Julian Assange, and explores the generations of rhetorical and political history behind them. The book places their rhetoric in the context of the permanent tensions between insiders and outsiders, between the political class and the populace, which are inherent to representative democracy. Through a theoretical and conceptual research that is historically grounded and comparative, it offers rhetorical analysis of candidates for the 2016 presidential election and discusses digital democracy, particularly discussing their origins in American populism and their influence on other countries through Americanization. Uniquely, it offers a sceptical assessment of epochal claims and a historical-rhetorical account of two of the defining figures of twentieth-century politics to date, and reveals how modern rhetoric is grounded in an older form of anti-politics and mobilises tropes that are as old as representative democracy itself.

Following World War II, Germany was faced not only with the practical tasks of reconstruction and denazification, but also with the longer-term mission of morally "re-civilizing" its citizens--a goal that persisted through the nation's 1949 split. One of the most important mediums for effecting reeducation was television, whose strengths were particularly evident in the thousands of television plays that were broadcast in both Germanys in the 1950s and 1960s. This book shows how TV dramas transcended state boundaries and--notwithstanding the ideological differences between East and West--addressed shared issues and themes, helping to ease viewers into confronting uncomfortable moral topics.
