Book America s Queen

Download or read book America s Queen written by Sarah Bradford and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2001-10-01 with total page 545 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Now the subject of a new film directed by Pablo Larrain, "Jackie", starring Natalie Portman Acclaimed biographer Sarah Bradford explores the life of Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis, the woman who has captivated the public for more than five decades, in a definitive portrait that is both sympathetic and frank. With an extraordinary range of candid interviews—many with people who have never spoken in such depth on record before—Bradford offers new insights into the woman behind the public persona. She creates a coherent picture out of Jackie’s tumultuous and cosmopolitan life—from the aristocratic milieu of Newport and East Hampton to the Greek isles, from political Washington to New York’s publishing community. She probes Jackie’s privileged upbringing, her highly public marriages, and her roles as mother and respected editor, and includes rare photos from private collections to create the most complete account yet written of this legendary life. Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis's life is once again the center of interest with the 2016 release of the Pablo Larrain movie "Jackie", starring Natalie Portman.

Book A Double Shot of Happiness

Download or read book A Double Shot of Happiness written by Judy Sharp and published by Allen & Unwin. This book was released on 2015-05-27 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The inspirational story of how a boy diagnosed with severe autism went on to become one of Australia's best-known international artists and the creator of Laser Beak Man. Tim Sharp and his magnificent creation, Laser Beak Man, are now major names in the world of international art. But the journey to this point has been an extraordinary one. When Judy Sharp took her three-year-old son Tim to a paediatric specialist, he was diagnosed with autism so severe that she was told he would never be able to talk or learn to live in a normal household, and that he was incapable of love, even towards his own mother. The advice at the time was that he would be better off in an institution. Just over twenty years later, Tim's joyful artworks and drawings involving his superhero, Laser Beak Man, have been exhibited around the world. From the Powerhouse in Brisbane to the Museum of Contemporary Art in Sydney to the Museum of Modern Art in New York, some of the world's greatest galleries have showcased Tim and his amazing career. Laser Beak Man's appeal is so widespread it's gone on to inspire, among other things, an eight-part animated children's TV series and a Broadway play in New York. A Double Shot of Happiness (from the title of one of Tim's favourite artworks) is Judy's beautiful and heartfelt account of Tim's odyssey from that terrible diagnosis to his emergence as an acclaimed artist and a fulfilled, loving and loved young man. It's a story that has involved many hurdles, moments of despair and incredible hard work from Tim, Judy, his brother Sam and all those who have helped them, but that is ultimately moving, inspiring and triumphant.

Book Complete Teachings of Wicca

Download or read book Complete Teachings of Wicca written by The Witch of Oz and published by Balboa Press. This book was released on 2018-02-07 with total page 444 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Old Religion known as Wicca uses an ancient pagan system of internal and external alchemizing as a way to heal and cause a reawakening and a new awareness of the Mother Goddess and her deepest mysteries. By improving our communication with our subtler levels of rhythm and change, we can move more easily and completely into the Age of Aquarius. Complete Teachings of Wicca, Book Two: The Witch offers a journey of self-exploration to learn and understand the basics of the oldest religion in the world, Wicca. It takes you through a series of training exercises and provides deeper insight into the mysteries of the Wicca and our Goddess, Mother Earth. Man has always been in awe of the Universe and its Magick, and by realizing that there is an ultimate feminine, we can know how everything is a creation of the two. We are the Witches of old and the Wiccans of tomorrow! The changes of the dawning age are inevitable and part of the macrocosmic tides. But it is up to us as individuals and as a planet to decide whether these changes take us forward or backward. The training and education in Complete Teachings of Wicca will help you find that the results are proportional to the amount of artistic involvement you invest, and it will help you reconnect with Mother Nature whether you are the seeker, the beginner of Wicca, or someone seeking his or her own truth.

Book Ethnologia Europaea

    Book Details:
  • Author : Marie Sandberg
  • Publisher : Museum Tusculanum Press
  • Release : 2014-07-04
  • ISBN : 8763542382
  • Pages : 98 pages

Download or read book Ethnologia Europaea written by Marie Sandberg and published by Museum Tusculanum Press. This book was released on 2014-07-04 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Disorder and order are among the principles through which the articles in this issue are connected. Peter Jan Margry grasps the exuberant excesses surrounding the Dutch monarch’s birthday with the term “mobocracy” and sees in the suspension of rules a means to reconcile Dutch republicanism with the anachronism of a monarchical system. Ongoing disorder of a rather different nature is experienced by migrant workers from Poland in Denmark. Niels Jul Nielsen and Marie Sandberg accompany them at work and in their different home settings and analyse the divergent interplay of the Polish labour niche and family dynamics on different constructions of “orderly work conditions”. Stefan Groth uncovers the structuring power of new tools and events to measure performance in recreational cycling; competitive norms are shown to permeate a leisure activity. Old age, too, is not free from the structuring arm of social and health regimes. Through his analysis of billiards – a game favoured by the older men he studies – Aske Juul Lassen critiques aging policies striving to “activate” the elderly and overlooking the rhythms inherent to a traditional game – and activity. The issue concludes with Tuuli Lähdesmäki’s comparison of how local heritage actors choose to narrate the transnationally launched European Heritage Label. Within an initiative to foster Europeanization, she finds actors formulating European identities in different moulds.
