Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Cutting the Gordian Knot Cutting the Gordian Knot is a blending of two proposed articles each of which is abbreviated, and they are united for lack of time, that they may reach, during the coming campaign, those who may have to chose this year between Democracy and Despotism. The arguments in support of A Graduated Property Tax as a defensive measure against the advance of imperialism, are the concluding arguments in the series which I began as a Republican in 1888. The discussion of the political situation in Kansas and of some events in our recent history, is a warning torpedo placed on the Populist track by a friendly hand. The hosts of Plutocracy are already in the field. Their three branches of service are all actively at work on their respective lines of Intimidation, Deception and Purchase. The People's party columns are in motion to meet them. Forward! is the word sent along the line. Forward! for the rescue of the Republic. Forward! as promised at Omaha; that we "would never cease to move Forward till every wrong is righted." Politics is a form of warfare. Its rational armament is the sword of the ballot.

Download or read book Siren City written by Robert Miklitsch and published by Rutgers University Press. This book was released on 2011-02-01 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hailed for its dramatic expressionist visuals, film noir is one of the most prominent genres in Hollywood cinema. Yet, despite the "boom" in sound studies, the role of sonic effects and source music in classic American noir has not received the attention it deserves. Siren City engagingly illustrates how sound tracks in 1940s film noir are often just as compelling as the genre's vaunted graphics. Focusing on a wide range of celebrated and less well known films and offering an introductory discussion of film sound, Robert Miklitsch mobilizes the notion of audiovisuality to investigate period sound technologies such as the radio and jukebox, phonograph and Dictaphone, popular American music such as "hot" black jazz, and "big numbers" featuring iconic performers such as Lauren Bacall, Veronica Lake, and Rita Hayworth. Siren City resonates with the sounds and source music of classic American noir-gunshots and sirens, swing riffs and canaries. Along with the proverbial private eye and femme fatale, these audiovisuals are central to the noir aesthetic and one important reason the genre reverberates with audiences around the world.
