Download or read book Hugo 1 written by Wolfgang W. Ausserbauer and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2022-07-14 with total page 343 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hugo is the Latinized form of the name Hugh and was used in the Middle Ages as the official written form. Hugh has Frankish (Germanic) roots and comes from the Old French “Hughes” derived from “hug,” meaning ‘heart, mind, spirit.’ The aristocracy of medieval France adopted Hugh/Hugo, no doubt due to the name’s favorable meaning, i.e., an intelligent person or one who is bright in heart, mind, and spirit. My uncle Heinz liked the name and his first car, a 1945 Dodge that carried the family all over California, from Crystal Lake in the San Bernardino Mountains to Huntington Beach, and all on bald tires, Hugo 1. I am not sure how intelligent our escapades were, but the brightness in heart, mind, and spirit went a long way. This story’s purpose is a joyride of possibilities that run through my mind as I recall the carefree days in Hugo 1.

  • Author : Hugo Wilcken
  • Publisher : A&C Black
  • Release : 2005-08-19
  • ISBN : 0826416845
  • Pages : 147 pages

Download or read book David Bowie s Low written by Hugo Wilcken and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2005-08-19 with total page 147 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "One day I blew my nose and half my brains came out." Los Angeles, 1976. David Bowie is holed up in his Bel-Air mansion, drifting into drug-induced paranoia and confusion. Obsessed with black magic and the Holy Grail, he's built an altar in the living room and keeps his fingernail clippings in the fridge. There are occasional trips out to visit his friend Iggy Pop in a mental institution. His latest album is the cocaine-fuelled Station To Station (Bowie: "I know it was recorded in LA because I read it was"), which welds R&B rhythms to lyrics that mix the occult with a yearning for Europe, after three mad years in the New World. Bowie has long been haunted by the angst-ridden, emotional work of the Die Brucke movement and the Expressionists. Berlin is their spiritual home, and after a chaotic world tour, Bowie adopts this city as his new sanctuary. Immediately he sets to work on Low, his own expressionist mood-piece.

Book Approaches to Teaching Hugo s Les Mis  rables

Download or read book Approaches to Teaching Hugo s Les Mis rables written by Michal P. Ginsbug and published by Modern Language Association. This book was released on 2018-08-01 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The greatest work of one of France's greatest writers, Victor Hugo's Les Misérables has captivated readers for a century and a half with its memorable characters, its indictment of injustice, its concern for those suffering in misery, and its unapologetic embrace of revolutionary ideals. The novel's length, multiple narratives, and encyclopedic digressiveness make it a pleasure to read but a challenge to teach, and this volume is designed to address the needs of instructors in a variety of courses that include the novel in excerpts or as a whole. Part 1 of the volume, "Materials," provides guidance on editions in French and in English translation, biographies, criticism, and maps. Part 2, "Approaches," contains essays that discuss the novel's conceptions of misère, sexuality, and the politics of the time and that demonstrate techniques for teaching context including the book's literary market, its adaptations, its place in popular culture, and its relation to other novels of its time.

Book excerpt: With a foreword by the legendary accompanist, Gerald Moore, Eric Sams' study (Faber 1961, revised 1983) is a notable landmark in the establishment of Wolf as one of the supreme masters of German song. Comprehensively revised and enlarged in 1983, the main subject matter remains the 242 published songs that Wolf wrote for voice and piano, though the Ibsen songs for voice and orchestra are also discussed. English translations are provided and the backgrounds to the original poems by Morike, Eichendorff and Goethe, as well as the Italian and Spanish sources from which the songbooks were drawn, are fully explored. Each song is dated, its keys identified and vocal range determined. 'This is the most important book in the English language on the songs of Hugo Wolf since Ernest Newman proclaimed the composer's genius in 1907 . . . To the English-speaking student this work is a treasure to which he will find himself returning again and again: it is indispensable to those of us anxious to gain a deeper knowledge of Wolf.'
