Описание: Now available in a new, large single volume with an appendix also listing the modern plant names, this classic collection by "the Audubon of botany" features more than 250 exquisite reproductions of Walcott's celebrated watercolors of wildflower life in the United States of America and Canada. Published in association with the Smithsonian InstitutionWhat does it take to paint a wildflower that blooms for a single day in a deep forest? For Mary Vaux Walcott, it involved spending up to seventeen hours a day out of doors with her paintbox to capture the shape, movement, and colors of delicate petals and leaves. Originally published in 1925 to enormous acclaim in five, oversized volumes, Walcott's sketches introduced the diversity and beauty of North American plants to the general public.

A selection of some of the most stunning illustrations are now available in a single volume, these illustrations have lost none of their beauty or realism. Walcott's technique involved precise attention to detail, color, light, and perspective. Her art can also be appreciated as the work of a woman scientist battling the prejudices against her sex of the day.

She was an intrepid explorer, skilled geologist, and generous benefactor to the Smithsonian Institution at a time when women's accomplishments were often overlooked or misattributed. As inspirational and informative as they are a pleasure for the eyes, this bouquet of nature's fleeting gifts is a lasting treasure of botanic and scientific artistry.

Описание:

A poem in five books, of circular narrative design, titled with the Greek name for Homer, which simultaneously charts two currents of history: the visible history charted in events -- the tribal losses of the American Indian, the tragedy of African enslavement -- and the interior, unwritten epic fashioned from the suffering of the individual in exile.

Описание:

This remarkable collection, which won the 1986 Los Angeles Times Book Prize for Poetry, includes most of the poems from each of Derek Walcott's seven prior books of verse and all of his long autobiographical poem, "Another Life." The 1992 Nobel Laureate in Literature, Walcott has been producing--for several decades--a poetry with all the beauty, wisdom, directness, and narrative force of our classic myths and fairy tales, and in this hefty volume readers will find a full record of his important endeavor. "Walcott's virutes as a poet are extraordinary," James Dickey wrote in The New York Times Book Review. "He could turn his attention on anything at all and make it live with a reality beyond its own; through his fearless language it becomes not only its acquired life, but the real one, the one that lasts . . . Walcott is spontaneous, headlong, and inventive beyond the limits of most other poets now writing."

Описание: Dit boek beschrijft de methode CATS CM, versie 4 voor het managen van contracten en is toe te passen binnen private en publieke organisaties, bij opdrachtgevers en leveranciers.Contractmanagement is het realiseren van de met het contract beoogde doelstellingen door tijdens de uitvoeringsfase van een contract, proactief invulling te geven aan alle contractueel vastgelegde verantwoordelijkheden, verplichtingen, procedures, afspraken, voorwaarden en tarieven, het management van de risico`s, het oplossen van alle onduidelijkheden, tegenstrijdigheden en hiaten en het verzorgen van de gewenste wijzigingen in het contract. CATS CM(R) biedt een methodische aanpak voor contractmanagement. Het beschrijft de uitgangspunten, de rollen, de aandachtpunten voor de contractmanager en de te volgen werkwijze. Naast een beschrijving van de methode biedt CATS CM versie 4 ook handvatten voor de implementatie van contractmanagement zowel voor beleid als proces.Een groot aantal organisaties heeft CATS CM inmiddels geselecteerd als basis voor hun contractmanagementproces. Mede op basis van hun ervaringen met CATS CM is deze nieuwe versie 4 ontstaan. CATS CM 4 gaat net als voorgaande edities uit van het standpunt dat het managen van een contract in uitvoering, aan beide kanten van het contract (opdrachtgever en leverancier) sterke overeenkomsten vertoont en dus het best in samenhang wordt beschreven. Dit boek is bedoeld voor iedereen die verantwoordelijk is voor, dan wel te maken heeft met contracten in uitvoering: contractmanagers, businessmanagers, deliverymanagers, projectmanagers, servicemanagers, facilitymanagers, inkopers, inkoopmanagers, compliance managers, risicomanagers, accountmanagers, salesmanagers en HR-managers, hun directeuren en stuurgroepleden aan beide zijden van het contract.

Описание: During the same period in which Derek Walcott was pouring immense physical, emotional, and logistical resources into the foundation of a viable first-rate West Indian theatre company and continuing to write his inimitable poetry, he was also busy writing newspaper reviews, chiefly for the Trinidad Guardian. His prodigious reviewing activity extended far beyond those areas with which one might most readily associate his interests and convictions. As Gordon Rohlehr once presciently observed, “If one wants to see a quotidian workaday Walcott, one should go back to [his] well over five hundred articles, essays and reviews on painting, cinema, calypso, carnival, drama and literature,” articles which “reveal a rich, various, witty and scrupulous intelligence in which generous humour counterpoints acerbity.” These articles capture the vitality of Caribbean culture and shed additional light on the aesthetic preoccupations expressed in Walcott’s essays published in journals. The editors have examined the corpus of Walcott’s journalistic activity from its beginnings in 1950 to its peak in the early 1970s, and have made a generous selection of material from the Guardian, along with occasional pieces from such sources as Public Opinion (Kingston) and The Voice of St. Lucia (Castries). The articles in Volume 2 are organized as follows: the performing arts; general surveys of anglophone Caribbean drama, theatre, and society; festivals, theatre companies, and productions; British and American drama; dance and music theatre; Carnival and calypso; and cinema screenings in Trinidad. Volume 2 additionally contains an exhaustive annotated and cross-referenced chronological bibliography of Walcott’s journalism up to 1990. The co-editor Christopher Balme has written a searching introductory essay on a central theme – here, a survey of West Indian theatre and Walcott’s engagement with it, particularly the idea of a ‘National Theatre’, coupled with an illustrative discussion of the playwright’s seminal dramatic spectacle Drums and Colours.

The volume closes with a selection of Walcott’s mis-cellaneous satirical essays. The volume editor Gordon Collier has written a searching introductory essay on a central theme – here, a critical, comparative analysis of Walcott’s development as journalist against the historical background of press activity in the Caribbean, coupled with an illustrative discussion (drawing on Walcott’s newspaper articles) of his attitudes towards prose fiction and poetry.
