Book A Record of the Bodurtha Family  1645 1896  Classic Reprint

Download or read book A Record of the Bodurtha Family 1645 1896 Classic Reprint written by H. Maria Bodurtha and published by . This book was released on 2015-08-04 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Record of the Bodurtha Family, 1645-1896 In sending forth this little volume, the writer seeks to preserve facts which have an interest presumably to the decendants of our common ancestor, Reice, and to those allied to the family by marriage. The one problem yet unsolved is the early home of this mysterious young man who was married in Springfield, Mass. in 1645. It may be by thus directing the attention of many to this question, new light may be thrown upon it. In compiling this book, the principal sources of information have been the original town records of Northampton, Springfield and West Springfield in Mass., and of Suffield in Conn. Church records, particularly those of West Springfield, have also afforded much help. For later dates we have depended upon correspondence with persons representing the different families. The plan of the book is simple, A chapter is devoted to each generation. The first page in the index gives the birth and descent of an individual, the second his marriage and family. The abbreviations will be easily understood: b. for born, d. for died, and unm. for unmarried. If mistakes have occurred, or if facts have been overlooked, the corrections may be included in an appendix by communicating with the writer. To all, who have kindly assisted by sending their family record, the writer herewith tenders her thanks. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Graphite and Precursors written by Pierre Delhaes and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2000-12-21 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Humans first used carbon as chars from firewood in ritual paintings and primitive metallurgical processes. Natural forms of carbon have been known since antiquity, yet the knowledge of the carbon element in chemistry and its technical applications on a larger scale are a relatively recent development. The industrial revolution in Europe two centuries ago led the way to the numerous applications of these graphitic forms that are still used today. Graphite and Precursors features short tutorial articles on different topics related to the science and technology of carbons intended for engineers, students of Materials Science and scientists who are seeking a fundamental understanding without "reinventing the wheel." This first volume of the World of Carbon book series focuses on graphite and its precursors, including its origin and various implications. The basic properties of hexagonal graphite are developed, and several theoretical and experimental approaches explain why this crystalline solid is fascinating in solid state physics. Also featured are the numerous applications connected to thermal, mechanical and chemical graphites, as well as their various industrial uses in polycrystalline form. Finally, carbon precursors are introduced.

Book English Romantic Writers and the West Country

Download or read book English Romantic Writers and the West Country written by N. Roe and published by Springer. This book was released on 2010-05-28 with total page 335 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Long confounded with a monolithic British entity or misrepresented as 'Lakers' and 'Cockneys', the diverse regional forms of 'English Romanticism' are ripe for reassessment. Ranging west of a line between the Wye at Tintern and Jane Austen's Chawton, this book offers a first reconfiguration of Romantic culture in terms of English regional identity.

Book Postmodern Portfolio Theory

Download or read book Postmodern Portfolio Theory written by James Ming Chen and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-07-26 with total page 345 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This survey of portfolio theory, from its modern origins through more sophisticated, “postmodern” incarnations, evaluates portfolio risk according to the first four moments of any statistical distribution: mean, variance, skewness, and excess kurtosis. In pursuit of financial models that more accurately describe abnormal markets and investor psychology, this book bifurcates beta on either side of mean returns. It then evaluates this traditional risk measure according to its relative volatility and correlation components. After specifying a four-moment capital asset pricing model, this book devotes special attention to measures of market risk in global banking regulation. Despite the deficiencies of modern portfolio theory, contemporary finance continues to rest on mean-variance optimization and the two-moment capital asset pricing model. The term postmodern portfolio theory captures many of the advances in financial learning since the original articulation of modern portfolio theory. A comprehensive approach to financial risk management must address all aspects of portfolio theory, from the beautiful symmetries of modern portfolio theory to the disturbing behavioral insights and the vastly expanded mathematical arsenal of the postmodern critique. Mastery of postmodern portfolio theory’s quantitative tools and behavioral insights holds the key to the efficient frontier of risk management.

Book The Lost Romantics

Download or read book The Lost Romantics written by Norbert Lennartz and published by Palgrave Macmillan. This book was released on 2021-01-28 with total page 333 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book features a collection of essays, shedding subversively new light on Romanticism and its canon of big-six, white, male Romantics by focusing on marginalised, forgotten and lost writers and their long-neglected works. Probing the realms of literary and cultural lostness, this book identifies different strata of oblivion and shows how densely the net of contacts and rivalries was woven around the ostensibly monolithic stars of the Romantic age. It reveals how the lost poets inspired the production of anthologised poetry, that they served as indispensable muses, sidekicks and interlocutors of the big six and that their relevance for the literary scene has been continuously underrated. This is also surprisingly true for some creators of famous one-hit wonders (Frankenstein, The Vampyre) who were suddenly rocketed to fame or notoriety, but could not help seeing their other works of fiction turning into abortive flops.

Cited research studies are presented in a straightforward manner focusing on the comprehension of study findings, rather than on the details of mathematical frameworks.
