Download or read book Rough Ideas written by Stephen Hough and published by Farrar, Straus and Giroux. This book was released on 2020-02-04 with total page 464 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A collection of essays on music and life by the famed classical pianist and composer Stephen Hough is one of the world’s leading pianists, winning global acclaim and numerous awards, both for his concerts and his recordings. He is also a writer, composer, and painter, and has been described by The Economist as one of “Twenty Living Polymaths.” Hough writes informally and engagingly about music and the life of a musician, from the broader aspects of what it is to walk out onto a stage or to make a recording, to specialist tips from deep inside the practice room: how to trill, how to pedal, how to practice. He also writes vividly about people he’s known, places he’s traveled to, books he’s read, paintings he’s seen; and he touches on more controversial subjects, such as assisted suicide and abortion. Even religion is there—the possibility of the existence of God, problems with some biblical texts, and the challenges involved in being a gay Catholic. Rough Ideas is an illuminating, constantly surprising introduction to the life and mind of one of our great cultural figures.

Download or read book Selected Essays Volume II written by Andrew Louth and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2023-08-17 with total page 497 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Taken together, these two volumes collect seventy-five essays written by Professor Andrew Louth over a forty-year period. Louth's contribution to scholarship and theology has always been significant, and these essays have been collected from journals and edited collections, many of which are difficult to access, and are here made available over two thought-provoking and wide-ranging volumes. Volume II collects essays on a variety of theological topics, arranged chronologically, showing the development of Louth's thought since 1978. Throughout this collection the nature of 'theology', as it is understood within Orthodox tradition, is a constant concern. These essays offer distinctive reflections on categories -- such as 'development of doctrine' -- that have become foundational in modern western thought but which must be viewed rather differently from an Orthodox perspective. The legacy of modern Russian Orthodox thought -- especially the key figures of the twentieth century Russian diaspora -- is under constant consideration, and forms a constant dialogue partner.

Download or read book Morning Musings written by Reinhard von Hennigs and published by . This book was released on 2020-07-27 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These Morning Musings are based on questions and observations inspired by trans-national business transactions. In this book, the author follows legal and business developments in different countries and muses about them. Whether it is about business decisions, immigration challenges, trademark disputes, or liability management, all of these topics ignite the global thinking. The book gives you food for thought and many reasons to reflect and to smile. Curiosity about these topics will most likely morph into a larger contemplation to foster a better understanding of global trends. - mus·ing (myo͞o′zĭng), adj. Deep in thought; contemplative, n.1. Contemplation; meditation 2. A product of contemplation; a thought The other day a friend called me and started the conversation by saying, "OK, boomer," and he laughed. I realized he did not mean me personally - clearly, I am not a boomer by the common generational approach - but it was his way of saying, "I watched your musing, and I liked it." Additionally, I get this question, sometimes during dinner meetings or small talk, "What is the source of your ideas?" Do you want to know what inspires me every day? Where do I develop the ideas for the Morning Musings?Clearly talking with my family about life and the world, traveling to different continents, working as the Chairman of an international law firm serving global clients and their businesses: All of this together is the ongoing source of my inspiration. My musings are based on questions and observations arising out of working trans-national business transactions. I also follow legal and business developments in different countries. And there is so much food for thought. Or reason to reflect and smile. Is there time to allow this thought to develop and to morph into a contemplation? "Brief and packed full of information, insight and humor. These Morning Musings have opened my eyes and helped me better understand today's ever changing world. OK Boomer, do you want to start your day out armed with information? I sure do! I start my day with the Morning Musing. These timely talks somehow make their way into my daily life and make me seem smarter. By the way, has anyone found our family Christmas Pickle ornament? Warning: The Musings may make you think and want to know more."- Kenneth W. Bacon, President and CEO Horizon Electric, Inc. "Refreshing view on a topic which continues to be discussed during these unprecedented times. Reinhard's ability to make these thought provoking discussions seem like you are sitting down with your neighbor make this book a must read." - Rich Baich, Chief Information Security Officer, AIG "Each musing, which is itself only a few paragraphs, provides a full depth and wealth of information. Despite there being a lot of information within each musing, the book is produced in a way that is easy to read and understand. I believe this is Reinhard's deeper idea, not just to inform, but to make me as the reader or listener think or smile about the world and humanity at large." - Dr. Henning O. Bruns, Chairman of the Leadership Committee of the German American Chamber of Commerce (GACC South), North Carolina Chapter - Senior Partner CON MOTO Consulting Group Inc.

A great way to get up to speed with current events affecting international business operations." - Johnelle Causwell, Citizen Diplomacy Program Director, International House Charlotte "Reinhard's musings are a great way to get a comprehensive, in-depth overview of the current market situation.. Especially now, that rules & regulations change so quickly, it's important to stay on top. These musings are definitely a great, effective way to do so."- Hans H. Hilgenstock, Key Account Manager Carolinas, Kuehne + Nagel, Inc.

Download or read book Edmund Burke Volume II written by F. P. Lock and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2006-09-07 with total page 645 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the second and concluding volume of a biography of Edmund Burke (1730-97), a key figure in eighteenth-century British and Irish politics and intellectual life. Covering the most interesting years of his life (1784-97), its leading themes are India and the French Revolution. Burke was largely responsible for the impeachment of Warren Hastings, former Governor-General of Bengal. The lengthy (145-day) trial of Hastings (which lasted from 1788 to 1795) is recognized as a landmark episode in the history of Britain's relationship with India. Lock provides the first day-by-day account of the entire trial, highlighting some of the many disputes about evidence as well as the great set speeches by Burke and others. In 1790, Burke published Reflections on the Revolution in France , the earliest sustained attack on the principles of the Revolution. Continuously in print ever since, the Reflections remains the most widely read and quoted book about the Revolution. The Reflections was followed by a series of anti-revolutionary writings, as Burke maintained his crusade against the Revolution to the end of his life. In addition to these leading themes, the biography examines many other topics in its coverage of Burke's busy and varied life: his parliamentary career; his family, friendships, and philanthropy; and his often difficult and obsessive personality. There are more than thirty illustrations, including many contemporary caricatures that convey how Burke was perceived by an often hostile and uncomprehending public. Controversial in his time, Burke is now regarded as one of the greatest of orators in the English language, as well as one of the most influential political philosophers in the Western tradition.
