Book excerpt: Please note - these are not "politically correct" tales. . In the Queen of Fairies (in the original, The Fairy of Fairies) as also in The Enchanted Prince, the plain-spoken expression has in several places been somewhat toned down. In all these cases the translator has cravenly yielded to the fear of bruising the delicate susceptibilities of civilized folks, who, while not exactly more moral, are certainly more squeamish than the artless old-world peasant. The book contains 7 original Romanian tales, as published in 1870s by Petre Ispirescu, as well as their English translation.

Download or read book DESIGNOLOGY A Designer is a Scientist who creates an Emotional Connection between a Brand and its Audiences written by Yasushi Kusume and published by Diplomica Verlag. This book was released on 2016-10 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Design is an essential element of business. It maximises the work of internal and external experts. It brings focus to foresight, ideas to innovation and expression to marketing. In short, it helps companies grow and prosper. Yet many businesses ignore the potential of design. They fail to make full use of the competences and skills designers have to offer. One reason for this is that there is no established academic science of design. This book takes steps to fi ll that gap by offering its own design science – a science called Designology. Designology should embrace a wide range of disciplines, from neuroscience, psychology and sociology to anthropology, ethnology and behavioural science. This book, however, decides to focus on just two of these disciplines – neuroscience and psychology – to demonstrate that design is a science rather than an art, and that designers equipped with the knowledge they offer can provide a credible, expert and, above all, effective contribution to any business. Designology – the science of connecting a brand to ist audience.

Download or read book The Story of French written by Jean-Benoît Nadeau and published by Macmillan + ORM. This book was released on 2008-01-08 with total page 597 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why does everything sound better if it's said in French? That fascination is at the heart of The Story of French, the first history of one of the most beautiful languages in the world that was, at one time, the pre-eminent language of literature, science and diplomacy. In a captivating narrative that spans the ages, from Charlemagne to Cirque du Soleil, Jean-Benoît Nadeau and Julie Barlow unravel the mysteries of a language that has maintained its global influence despite the rise of English. As in any good story, The Story of French has spectacular failures, unexpected successes and bears traces of some of history's greatest figures: the tenacity of William the Conqueror, the staunchness of Cardinal Richelieu, and the endurance of the Lewis and Clark expedition. Through this colorful history, Nadeau and Barlow illustrate how French acquired its own peculiar culture, revealing how the culture of the language spread among francophones the world over and yet remains curiously centered in Paris. In fact, French is not only thriving—it still has a surprisingly strong influence on other languages. As lively as it is fascinating, The Story of French challenges long held assumptions about French and shows why it is still the world's other global language.

Download or read book Ghost of the Rhine written by Fred Datig and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2009-09-09 with total page 478 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Don't let the title fool you, because you don't have to believe in ghosts -- "of the Rhine," or otherwise -- to be spirited away into the all-too-real, flesh-and-blood, wartime experiences of this "tell it like it really was" author. Share the innermost feelings of an 18-year-old, "kidnapped" form his upper middle class family, taught to hate through the military's barbaric "Disorganization, Degradation and Dehumanization Program: (his terminology), and sent out by "them" as just another brainwashed sheep to kill and die for "his country." We're not dealing here with simply one more of the myriad "Flat-On-My-Back-At-10,000-Feet," or "Hell-in-a-Foxhole," repetitiously monotonous "war stories" memoirs. This is an adventure involving repeated unusual circumstances in a blitzkrieg of ever-changing scenery and situations, a "4 battle stars in 3 months" action drama bordering on fiction, yet each and every detail believably accurate. You don't have to be military-oriented, or any type of "armchair commando" to find a (male chauvinist pig) place for yourself among these pages. You'll discover circumstances which would've happened to you, personally, had you been there then, and which could still happen to you, even now, with the mere differences of perhaps time, place, and circumstance. As you'll see, none of "us" are invulnerable to the bloodthirsty greed of "them," past, present, or future. Who knows? This down-to-basics recounting of the sometimes-typical, sometimes-unbelievable situations which actually took place, may very well turn out to be a real-life "All Quiet on the Western Front" of the Second World War? . . . As the author dares, "Bite the bullet, take a chance, and find out for yourself!"
