Book Selections from the Notebooks Of Edward Bond

Download or read book Selections from the Notebooks Of Edward Bond written by Edward Bond and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2014-03-24 with total page 351 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This second volume of Edward Bond's notebooks covers the period from Restoration, his historic drama with songs, to Eleven Vests, his play for young people written for Big Brum Theatre-in-Education "There is a cliché - which is also false - that all creative writing is autobiographical. If I were to be asked when you write do you write about your life I would answer when I write I am living my life." Including first drafts of plays, ideas and thoughts on characters, themes, actions and dramatic technique, this selection of notes provides a glimpse into the working mind of one of the world's most provocative playwrights. Alongside the commentaries on the plays, Bond's notes also contain stories and poems. His philosophy on theatre and art and his views on the role of the writer in society are included. Emphasis is given to Bond's critical response to political and moral issues such as Thatcherism, the monarchy, nuclear war, Britain's social classes and our definitions of good and evil.

Book Black   White   Noir

    Book Details:
  • Author : Paula Rabinowitz
  • Publisher : Columbia University Press
  • Release : 2002-06-20
  • ISBN : 0231506147
  • Pages : 492 pages

Download or read book Black White Noir written by Paula Rabinowitz and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2002-06-20 with total page 492 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Black & White & Noir explores America's pulp modernism through penetrating readings of the noir sensibility lurking in an eclectic array of media: Office of War Information photography, women's experimental films, and African-American novels, among others. It traces the dark edges of cultural detritus blowing across the postwar landscape, finding in pulp a political theory that helps explain America's fascination with lurid spectacles of crime. We are accustomed to thinking of noir as a film form popularized in movies like The Maltese Falcon, The Big Sleep, and, more recently, Quentin Tarantino's Pulp Fiction. But it is also, Paula Rabinowitz argues, an avenue of social and political expression. This book offers an unparalleled historical and theoretical overview of the noir shadows cast when the media's glare is focused on the unseen and the unseemly in our culture. Through far-ranging discussions of the Starr Report, movies such as Double Indemnity and The Big Heat, and figures as various as Barbara Stanwyck, Kenneth Fearing, and Richard Wright, Rabinowitz finds in film noir the representation of modern America's attempt to submerge and mask its violent history of racial and class anatagonisms. Black & White & Noir also explores the theory and practice of stilettos, the ways in which girls in the 1950s viewed film noir as a secret language about their mothers' pasts, the extraordinary tone-setting photographs of Esther Bubley, and the smutty aspect of social workers' case studies, among other unexpected twists and provocative turns.

  • Author : Stephen Paine
  • Publisher : Lulu.com
  • Release : 2007-02-11
  • ISBN : 0615146716
  • Pages : 417 pages

Download or read book Smoke Mirrors written by Stephen Paine and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2007-02-11 with total page 417 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A hypnotist counts us collectively back to 2000 - where it all began. "We were mesmerized, hypnotized and bamboozled." It was all a deceptive show, performed through the tricks of Smoke & Mirrors. Mr Paine, hypnotist, social philosopher and activist, uses cutting edge investigations - and a sharp pin - to pop the fantasy bubble/babble that fooled a nation into believing that the candidate who came in second, won the race. Look past the barrage of Bushspeak, sound bites, slanted news and spin-meisters and see HOW it was done. "Wake up from the trance: we were, as a people and a nation, hood-winked into surrendering the highest office in the land." The crime, treason, points to what we need to do now - what we should have done years ago. The solution is clear: We need to overcome our timidity, uncertainty and fear, and stand up for the right thing; namely, getting our country back. We do not have to sleep walk, nor goose step, any more. We can end this Now.

Book The Twenty First Century Mechanistic Theory of Human Cognition

Download or read book The Twenty First Century Mechanistic Theory of Human Cognition written by Diego Azevedo Leite and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-11-30 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a theoretical critical appraisal of the Mechanistic Theory of Human Cognition (MTHC), which is one of the most popular major theories in the contemporary field of cognitive science. It analyses and evaluates whether MTHC provides a unifying account of human cognition and its explanation. The book presents a systematic investigation of the internal and external consistency of the theory, as well as a systematic comparison with other contemporary major theories in the field. In this sense, it provides a fresh look at more recent major theoretical debates in this area of scientific research and a rigorous analysis of one of its most central major theories. Rigorous theoretical work is integrated with objective consideration of relevant empirical evidence, making the discussions robust and clear. As a result, the book shows that MTHC provides a significant theoretical contribution for the field of cognitive science. The content is useful for those interested in theoretical and empirical issues concerning major theories in the contemporary field of cognitive science.
