Download or read book The Birmingham Medical Review Vol 78 written by J. Jameson Evans and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-14 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Birmingham Medical Review, Vol. 78: A Monthly Journal of the Medical Sciences; July to December, 1915 D., male, aged 36. A. Case of heterochromic cyclitis, which developed cataract, and ultimately glaucoma. The lens was successfully extracted, and a vision of 6 5 and J i was attained, and maintained for a year. Then the disc showed signs of cupping, and a condition of chronic glaucoma developed. On January 24th, 1910, the eye was trephined below, and a basal iridectomy was performed. The trephine hole healed up rapidly and solidly, and only for a short time was any sign Of filtration present. The eye gradually became blind, owing to atrophy of the optic nerve and Opacity of the Vitreous. On February 15th, 1915, five years after the operation, the patient appeared with an infected eye. The anterior chamber was full of pus, and there was present a large intercalary staphyloma. The eye was removed, and a second staphyloma was found in the posterior segment Of the globe. I had not seen the case for a year, and so am not able to state positively that the condition of the eye was not the natural ultimate end of the chronic cyclitis. The history, however, suggested that the eye had suddenly become inflamed, and I regard the case as an example of late infection.

This book was released on 2017-09-16 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Unity of Western Civilization Essays Arranged and Edited The following essays are the substance of a course of lectures delivered at a Summer School at the Woodbrooke Settlement, near Birmingham, in August 1915. The general purpose of the course will be apparent from the essays them selves. No forced or mechanical uniformity of view was aimed at. The writers will be found, very naturally and properly, to differ in detail and in the stress they lay on different aspects of the case. But they agree in thinking that while our country's cause and the cause of our Allies is just and necessary and must be prosecuted with the utmost vigour, it is not inopportune to reflect on those common and ineradicable elements in the civilization of the West which tend to form a real commonwealth of nations and will survive even the most shattering of conflicts. That we on the Allied side stand fundamentally for this ideal is one of our most valuable assets. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Northern Iron My Dear Bigger, This story, as you have already guessed, is the fruit of a recent holiday spent in County Antrim. The writing of it has been a great pleasure, for almost every place mentioned in it recalls the goodness of the friends who received me and made my holiday a happy one. I think of kind people when I write of Dunseveric and Ballintoy - of hours spent in their company among the Runkerry cliffs, the sandhills, the Skerries, and of the morning on which I swam, like Neal and Una, into the Rock Pigeons' Cave. I remember a time - full of interest and delight - spent with you when I mention Donegore, Antrim, and Templepatrick. My mind dwells on an older, a very dear friend and relative, when I tell of Neal's visit to Belfast. And the book is more than the recollection of a summer holiday.

Download or read book Recent Developments in European Thought Essays Arranged and Edited Classic Reprint written by F. S. Marvin and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-05 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Recent Developments in European Thought Essays Arranged and Edited This volume, like its two predecessors, arises from a course of lectures delivered at a Summer School at Woodbrooke, near Birmingham, in August, 1919. The first, in 1915, dealt with 'The Unity of Western Civilization' generally, the second, in 1916, with 'Progress'. In this book an attempt has been made to trace the same ideas in the last period of European history, broadly speaking since 1870. It was felt at the conclusion of the course that the point of view was so enlightening and offered so many opportunities of useful further study that it should, if possible, be resumed in future years. A large number of subjects were suggested - 'The Relations of East and West, ' 'The Duty of Advanced to Backward Peoples, ' 'The Role of Science in Civilization, ' &c. - all containing the same elements of 'progress in unity' which have inspired the previous volumes.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Citizens to Be: A Social Study of Health, Wisdom and Goodness With Special Reference, to Elementary Schools The effort of these pages is a threefold effort of reconciliation - first, to suggest a closer fellowship between the company of social workers and the company of teachers, and to win a wider recognition of the identity of the aims of both; secondly, within the educational ideal, to unite the often contrasted purposes of vocational and liberal, primary and secondary, individual and civic, secular and religious education; thirdly, to foreshadow the attainment, hastened through such a fellowship and such an education, of wider and deeper life-unities - the merging of the ideals of aristocracy and democracy in a better social order, and the fulfilment of the national ideal in the international, as Humanism pursues its inevitable upward course towards its own transcendence. The conviction compelling the effort is that the realisation of these several purposes is to be sought either in their reconciliation or nowhere. And if the attempt to comprehend so much within a single aim is daring, yet it is not so reckless, in view of the whole Humanist tradition, as the attempt to work or think on these matters in isolation.

Download or read book Accenting the Classics written by Deborah Mawer and published by Boydell & Brewer. This book was released on 2023-03-14 with total page 383 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Brings new insights to the music of well-known European composers by telling a fascinating, little-known story about French music publishing, specifically through the lens of Jacques Durand's Édition Classique. French composers, performers and musicologists acted as editors of eighteenth- and nineteenth-century European 'classics', primarily for piano. Among these editors were Fauré, Saint-Saëns, Debussy, Ravel and Dukas; the objects of their enquiries included core works by Rameau, Bach, Mozart, Beethoven, Mendelssohn, Schumann and Chopin. Presenting six composer-editor case studies, the volume shows that the French 'accent', both musical and cultural, upon this predominantly Austro-German music was highly varied. Editorial responses range from scholarly approaches to those directed by performance or compositional agendas, and from pan-European to strongly patriotic stances. Intriguing intersections are revealed between old and new, and between French and cross-European canons. Beyond editing, the book explores the Édition's role in pedagogy and performance, including by pianists Robert Casadesus and Yvonne Loriod, and in the reassertion of contemporary French composition, especially regarding innovation around neoclassicism. It will interest a wide readership, including musicologists, performers and concert-goers, cultural historians and other humanities scholars.
