Download or read book The Immortal Deed of Michael O Leary written by Cónal Creedon and published by . This book was released on 2021-02-15 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Michael O'Leary was born in Iveleary, the ancient tribal homeland of the O'Leary clan. It is a land of the warrior and the poet, where history and story go hand in hand, and the spiritual and the natural complement each other without contradiction or contrivance.This is a story of Ireland with the clan O'Leary at its core. It offers a perspective of Irish history as viewed from the half-door of a hillside cottage in Iveleary. It is a saga that thunders along the beautiful green and leafy Lee Valley - from its mystical source high up over Gougán, all the way to the Gearagh and the broad meandering latticework of waterways of Corcach Mór na Mumhan. Iveleary is not just a destination, it is a journey into time; it is a sound, a scent, a state of mind. Cónal Creedon invites you to join him on his voyage of discovery into the heartland of O'Leary country; a land where fact and fiction dovetail together seamlessly, and pagan tradition and Christian belief become one.

Download or read book Immoral Memories written by Sergei Eisenstein and published by Peter Owen Publishers. This book was released on 2014 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Sergei Eisenstein (1898-1948), creator of such masterpieces as Battleship Potemkin, Alexander Nevsky and Ivan the Terrible, was perhaps the greatest of all film directors. He wrote his autobiography in 1946, two years before his death, and it is a work of major importance in the light it sheds on his personality and mercurial genius. Vivid, eccentric and free-ranging, Immoral Memories is written in a style reminiscent of the brilliant visual effects of montage and dynamic progression that characterize its author's film-making technique. He recounts his life in Russia from the time of the Revolution, during which he served in the Bolshevik army as a volunteer, his travels in the West and his encounters with a remarkable medley of individuals during his long career. He gives us unique insights, too, into his triumphs and tribulations. His disappointments and despair were exemplified by the banning of the film Ivan the Terrible, Part II, which was not released until fifteen years after his death. And he never expected his autobiography to be published in Russia. Yet in answer to his query "Has there been life" he replied that there had been "life lived acutely, joyously, tormentedly, at times even sparkling, unquestionably colourful, and such a life that, I suppose, I would not exchange for another""--Publisher's description.

Download or read book I Brought the Ages Home written by Charles Trick Currelly and published by . This book was released on 2008-02-15 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I Brought the Ages Home is the intriguing story of how a boy born in southwestern Ontario and trained for the ministry became one of Canada's great archaeological pioneers and museum-builders - nothing less than a homegrown Indiana Jones.Described by scholar Dennis Duffy as the Royal Ontario Museum's own "Genesis narrative," I Brought the Ages Home is a lively, adventure-packed memoir that traces Currelly's life from his childhood in Exeter, Ontario, to Victoria College in Toronto, and on to Egypt, Crete, and Asia Minor, where heestablished his reputation as one of the era's most energetic and passionate collectors of antiquities. Later chapters describe Currelly's work as the first director of the Royal Ontario Museum of Archaeology and how he "brought the ages home" to the corner of Bloor Street and Queen's Park inToronto. General readers and students of archaeology and museology alike will treasure this behind-the-scenes account of the making of one of Canada's great cultural institutions.This new edition includes a special afterword by Dennis Duffy of the University of Toronto that sets Currelly's autobiography in a modern context, as well as the original introduction by Northrop Frye. The result is a book that is at once an engaging autobiography and unique insider's perspective onthe formative years of a cultural cornerstone that, with its recent renovations, is once again the focus of national attention.

Download or read book The Uncommercial Traveller Illustrated written by Charles Dickens and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 474 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Uncommercial Traveller is a collection of literary sketches and reminiscences written by Charles Dickens, published in 1860-1861.In 1859 Dickens founded a new journal called All the Year Round and the Uncommercial Traveller articles would be among his main contributions. He seems to have chosen the title and persona of the Uncommercial Traveller as a result of a speech he gave on 22 December 1859 to the Commercial Travellers' School London in his role as honorary chairman and treasurer. The persona sits well with a writer who liked to travel, not only as a tourist, but also to research and report what he found visiting Europe, America and giving book readings throughout Britain. He did not seem content to rest late in his career when he had attained wealth and comfort and continued travelling locally, walking the streets of London in the mould of the flâneur, a 'gentleman stroller of city streets'. He often suffered from insomnia and his night-time wanderings gave him an insight into some of the hidden aspects of Victorian London, details of which he also incorporated into his novels."
