Download or read book Gaud 1852 1926 written by Rainer Zerbst and published by Taschen America Llc. This book was released on 2005 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gaudí's complete works: The inspiring, visionary buildings by the "Dante of architecture" Anyone who visits Barcelona today will come across the works of Antoni Gaudí--the architect who has attracted art-lovers from all over the world to Spain. It was here, in the capital of Catalonia, that the famous master of architecture produced nearly all of his works, including villas for the well-to-do bourgeoisie, the expansive Güell Park (which today is open to the public), and the famous church designed in honour of the Holy Family--a project which was begun over 100 years ago and has yet to be completed. Antoni Gaudí's life was full of contradictions. As a young man he joined the Catalonian nationalist movement and was critical of the church; toward the end of his life he devoted himself completely to the construction of one single church. As a young man Gaudí had a liking for the glamour of social life and the looks of a dandy; in old age, on the other hand, he lived a spartan life. Gaudí never married and devoted his life entirely to his art: architecture. His works have been acclaimed as "soothing oases in a desert of functional buildings," as "precious gems in the uniform grey of rows of houses," and the master himself was acclaimed as the "Dante of architecture". This book provides a sweeping study of his entire career, presenting his complete works via texts and illustrations.

Download or read book Sports Illustrated Joe Paterno written by Editors of Sports Illustrated and published by Sports Illustrated. This book was released on 2012-03-13 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Consider for a moment that Harry Truman was President when Joe Paterno came to Penn State. More than six decades later, the bespectacled, gravelly-throated football icon had won more games than any major college coach while guiding teams to five undefeated seasons and two national titles. Although that tenure came to a sad end in November 2011, followed by Paterno's death from complications of lung cancer two months later, his achievements and the way he went about realizing them will endure. He was the rare coach who championed values and demanded academic excellence from his players, remaining as straightforward and constant through the years as the Lions' blue-and-white uniforms. SPORTS ILLUSTRATED's retrospective of Joe Paterno is the definitive account of a remarkable career, collecting the best stories and photographs from the pages of SI to chronicle the story of this rare coach and the program he built. The man known simply as JoePa assumed a unique place in our collective sporting culture. This 208-page collection is a lasting remembrance of the history that he made at Penn State.

Download or read book Mindful Movements written by Thich Nhat Hanh and published by Parallax Press. This book was released on 2008-07-10 with total page 65 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the years, Thich Nhat Hanh and his monastic community in Plum Village, have developed more and more ways to integrate mindfulness practices into every aspect of their daily life. A few years back Thich Nhat Hanh began to develop gentle exercises based on Yoga and Tai Chi movements. Initially designed as mindful stretching breaks between long periods of sitting meditation, Mindful Movements became a popular tool to complement to sitting meditation extending Thich Nhat Hanh's trademark gentle approach to Buddhist teachings into a series of physical movements. These movements enjoy a growing popularity amongst his students and have become integral part of his retreats. These simple and effective practices are meant to reduce stress and tension to help the practitioner gain the serenity he needs to return to a state of mindfulness. When done as part of a full mediation practice, theses movements can address mental, emotional, and physical stress. Offered to the general public for the first time, the Mindful Movements have been lovingly illustrated by one of Thich Nhat Hanh's long-time practitioner, Wietske Vriezen. Drawn in a whimsical and immediately appealing style the booklet presents 10 routines that can be practiced by people of all ages and body types whether they are already familiar with mindfulness practices or not. The Mindful Movements are designed to be accessible to as many people as possible. Far from being another exercise program, Mindful Movements is for all those wanting to add a gentle but physical element to their meditation practice.They can be practiced before or after sitting meditation, at home, or at work - any time you have a few minutes to refresh your body and quiet your mind. For those new to meditation they are a great, non-threatening way to get acquainted with mindfulness as a complete and multi-faceted practice. For those who already have an established sitting practice Mindful Movements will come as a welcomed addition to their practice. With a foreword by Thich Nhat Hanh and Introduction by Jon Kabat-Zinn [TBC]
