The first public parks were created on urban 'greenfields'. Once these designated sites had been used, cities looked towards post-industrial sites, and built parks in places that had suffered from environmental degradation, neglect, abandonment and conflict. With finite stocks of urban post-industrial land now also approaching exhaustion, more ways of making parks are required to create inclusive, accessible and resilient urban places. Future Park invites Australian built environment professionals and policymakers to consider the future of parks in our cities. Including spectacular images of public spaces throughout the world, the book describes the economic, social and environmental benefits of urban parks, and then outlines the threats and challenges facing cities and communities in an age when more than half the world's population are urban dwellers. Future Park introduces the need to embrace new public park thinking to ensure that benefits continue to be realised. Future Park illustrates imaginative and resourceful responses to real challenges by highlighting recent proposals and projects. These projects coalesce around four broad themes ? linkages, obsolescences, co-locations and installations ? responding to contemporary urban paradoxes, and ensuring parks continue to play a vital role in the lives of our cities.画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

＜p＞In the fall of 1948 H. L. Mencken, then at the top of his unmatchable form (he had spoken at a meeting of the American Philosophical Society in Philadelphia only a little while before), suffered a stroke. He soon recovered his physical vigor, but writing was for him a thing of the past. Some months before his death, in going through some papers that he was putting in order for deposit in his beloved Enoch Pratt Free Library in Baltimore, his long-time secretary discovered these Notebooks. Mencken meant to publish them, as he makes clear in the preface, which also describes them better than I can.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Suffice it to say that here is one more generous sampling of the old Mencken battling fearlessly for the freedom and dignity of the individual and for the general decencies of life and attacking all that seems fundamentally hostile to man: government, organized religion, professional philosophers, and pedagogues above all. It shows his restless and inquiring mind ranging over many of the problems that beset all of us who ever take time out to think, all in his unmatchable style, which, however much it crackles, has the supreme virtueーwhich Henry always found in his own great model, Thomas Henry Huxleyーthat of never leaving you in doubt of its meaning.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Read the preface and note that this book is precisely what its title suggests; it consists of hundreds of notesーsome only a few lines in length, some running to several pages, all reflecting a rigorous and exhilarating mind and personality. It may be a long time before another like him crosses our path.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

＜p＞Artist Mary Whyte's ＜em＞Down Bohicket Road＜/em＞ includes two decades worth of watercolorsーdepicting a select group of Gullah women of Johns Island, South Carolina, and their stories. In 1991, following Whyte's recovery from a year of treatment for cancer, she and her husband moved to a small sea island near Charleston, seeking a new home where they could reinvent themselves far removed from the hectic pace of Philadelphia. In this remote corner of the South, Whyte first met Alfreda LaBoard and her devoted group of seniors who gathered weekly to make quilts, study the Bible, and socialize in a small rural church on Bohicket Road. Descendants of lowcountry slaves, these longtime residents of the island influenced Whyte's life and art in astonishing and unexpected ways.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Whyte soon began a series of watercolors depicting these women, honoring their lives and their dedication to family and faith. As her friendships with these women grew, their matriarch Alfreda LaBoard claimed Whyte as her "vanilla sister." ＜em＞Alfreda's World,＜/em＞ a collection of Whyte's detailed watercolors and poignant recollections of the women at the senior center, was published a decade later, drawing attention and support from the community to the small church on Bohicket Road.＜/p＞ ＜p＞＜em＞Down Bohicket Road＜/em＞ continues the story of Whyte's relationship with these extraordinary women, following the passing of Alfreda, against the backdrop of the ongoing commercial development of Johns Island. For Whyte, the heart of this community remains in the simple homes clustered along Bohicket Road, in the island's winding tidal creeks, and in a small church where eighteen hardscrabble women gather in fellowship each week. In her book Whyte illustrates that both watercolors and friendships can be the unpredictable results of an abundance of blessings. As shared through touching words and vibrant paintings, ＜em＞Down Bohicket Road＜/em＞ celebrates a unique way of coastal life and a remarkable friendship that transcends all barriersーeven death itselfーin praise of the unifying power of art.＜/p＞ ＜p＞All royalties from the sale of this book benefit the Hebron Saint Francis Senior Center on Johns Island.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

＜p＞＜strong＞The final collection of new poems from one of our finest and most beloved poets.＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞The poems in this wonderful collection touch all of the events and places that meant the most to Philip Levine. There are lyrical poems about his family and childhood, the magic of nighttime and the power of dreaming; tough poems about the heavy shift work at Detroit's auto plants, the Nazis, and bosses of all kinds; telling poems about his heroes--jazz players, artists, and working people of every description, even children. Other poems celebrate places and things he loved: the gifts of winter, dawn, a wall in Naples, an English hilltop, Andalusia. And he makes peace with Detroit: "Slow learner that I am, it took me one night/to discover that rain in New York City/is just like rain in Detroit. It gets you wet." It is a peace that comes to full fruition in a moving goodbye to his home town in the final poem in the collection, "The Last Shift."＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

＜p＞The Christchurch Fusee Chain Gang is a detailed study of poverty, survival and bygone trades. With major new discoveries about the watch industry, and the characters that inhabited the small town of Christchurch in Dorset, Sue Newman explores the significance of watch making and other cottage industries that helped to keep the people of Christchurch out of the clutches of poverty. Have you ever wondered who invented the first clock or where the idea for watches came from? If so, this is the book for you. Sue Newman explores various explanations for the origin of the invention of the first clock, an accolade that is often attributed to a Pope named Gerbert in 920AD. The Chain Gang charts the story of the increasing miniaturisation of clocks which eventually transformed into watches and explores the significance of the fuse chain and what this industry meant to the inhabitants of Christchurch.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

＜p＞With its fanlike evergreen fronds, soft trunk, and strong root system, the palmetto is a wind-adapted palm that can bend with strong sea breezes without breaking or being uprooted. Emblematic of survival against opposition, the palmetto tree has captured the imaginations of South Carolinians for generations, appearing on the state seal since the American Revolution and on the state flag since 1861. The palmetto was named South Carolina's official state tree by Governor Burnet R. Maybank in 1939, and in 1974 Governor John C. West commissioned acclaimed South Carolina artist Jim Harrison to paint the official palmetto tree portrait for the State of South Carolina, an image that adorns the State House to this day. The ＜em＞Palmetto and Its South Carolina Home＜/em＞ showcases the timeless, natural beauty of the state tree in marshland and coastal landscapes in the popular Harrison style.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Appearing on glassware, stationery, jewelry, and many other decorative and functional objects, the palmetto tree is an omnipresent symbol in South Carolina culture. For Harrison, the palmetto remains foremost an icon of the wondrous Carolina coastal habitats. Sweeping images of the coast have been part of Harrison's art since the beginning of his career, and he continues to illustrate his love of the South Carolina coast by capturing the beauty of the state tree amid the many stunning and enchanting scenes included here.＜/p＞ ＜p＞＜em＞The Palmetto and Its South Carolina Home＜/em＞ also explores the historical background of the tree and its many ties to South Carolina's heritage as a symbol of strength and beauty worthy of this artistic celebration.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

＜p＞＜em＞Understanding Diane Johnson＜/em＞ is a biographical and critical study of a quintessential American novelist who has devoted forty-five years to writing about French and American culture.

＜p＞＜strong＞Meditations on personal and cultural memory, race, and sexuality in the New South＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞Selected by Afaa Weaver as the third annual winner of the South Carolina Poetry Book Prize, ＜em＞Signals＜/em＞ is the first book-length collection from Ed Madden. Deeply rooted in the recognizable landscapes and legacies of the American South, these lyric poems couple daring engagements in topics of race and sexuality with tender reflections on personal and cultural histories. Madden's adopted home of South Carolina rises to the surface in poems set at Folly Beach, Fort Moultrie, Lake Keowee, and Middleton Place. His interrogations of social oppression conjure the ubiquitous iconography of the bygone Confederacy, a first encounter with the miniseries ＜em＞Roots,＜/em＞ and a cameo appearance by Strom Thurmond. In the collection's central section, Madden turns to issues of sexual difference, community formation, and the place of gay men in contemporary Southern culture. Throughout Madden repeatedly turns to the artifacts that demarcate his memories of youth in the rural South to ask how we define home, how we form meaning out of the silences and losses of the past, and what rituals and relationships might sustain us as we inch forward across a rough terrain of shifting emotional and moral challenges.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

＜p＞＜em＞Understanding David Mamet＜/em＞ analyzes the broad range of David Mamet's plays and places them in the context of his career as a prolific writer of fiction and nonfiction prose as well as drama. Over the past three decades, Mamet has written more than thirty produced plays and garnered recognition as one of the most significant and influential American playwrights of the post-World War II generation. In addition to playwriting and directing for the theater, Mamet also writes, directs, and produces for film and television, and he writes essays, fiction, poetry, and even children's books. The author remains best known for depicting men in gritty, competitive work environments and for his vernacular dialogue (known in the theater as "Mametspeak"), which has raised the expletive to an art form. In this insightful survey of Mamet's body of work, Brenda Murphy explores the broad range of his writing for the theater and introduces readers to Mamet's major writing in other literary genres as well as some of his neglected pieces.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Murphy centers her discussion around Mamet's most significant playsー＜em＞Glengarry Glen Ross, Oleanna, American Buffalo, Speed-the-Plow, The Cryptogram, Sexual Perversity in Chicago, Edmond, The Woods, Lakeboat, Boston Marriage,＜/em＞ and ＜em＞The Duck Variations＜/em＞ーas well as his three novelsー＜em＞The Village, The Old Religion,＜/em＞ and ＜em＞Wilson.＜/em＞ Murphy also notes how Mamet's one-act and less known plays provide important context for the major plays and help to give a fuller sense of the scope of his art. A chapter on his numerous essays, including his most anthologized piece of writing, the autobiographical essay "The Rake," reflects Mamet's controversial and evolving ideas about the theater, film, politics, religion, and masculinity. Throughout her study Murphy incorporates references to Mamet's popular films as useful waypoints for contextualizing his literary works and understanding his continuing evolution as a writer for multiple mediums.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

＜p＞＜em＞Understanding Suzan-Lori Parks＜/em＞ is a critical study of a playwright and screenwriter who was the first African American woman to receive the Pulitzer Prize for Drama. Suzan-Lori Parks is also the recipient of a MacArthur Genius Award, a Whiting Writers Award, a CalArts/Alpert Award in the Arts, two Obie Awards, and a Eugene McDermott Award in the Arts. In this book Jennifer Larson examines how Parks, through the innovative language and narratives of her extensive body of work, investigates and invigorates literary and cultural history.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Larson discusses all of Parks's genresーplay, screenplay, essay, and novelーclosely reading key texts from Parks's more experimental earlier pieces as well as her more linear later narratives. Larson's study begins with a survey of Parks's earliest and most difficult texts including I＜em＞mperceptible Mutabilities in the Third Kingdom＜/em＞ and ＜em＞The Death of the Last Black Man in the Whole Entire World.＜/em＞ Larson then analyzes Venus, In the Blood, and the Lincoln Plays: ＜em＞The America Play＜/em＞ and the Pulitzer Prize-winning ＜em＞TopDog/Underdog.＜/em＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞Larson also discusses two of Parks's most important screenplays, ＜em＞Girl 6＜/em＞ and ＜em＞Their Eyes Were Watching God.＜/em＞ In interpreting these screenplays, Larson examines film's role in the popularization and representation of African American culture and history. These essays suggest an approach to all genres of literature and blend creativity, form, culture, and history into a revisionary aesthetic that allows for no identity or history to remain fixed, with Parks arguing that in order to be relevant they must all be dynamic and democratic.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

＜p＞＜strong＞A photographer's intimate view of writers' personal and creative journeys＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞In 1989 Susan Johann was hired to photograph Christopher Durang for a magazine article about his play ＜em＞Naomi in Her Living Room＜/em＞. The playwright was known for his outrageous comedy, so Johann anticipated a session with a rather wild, young eccentric. To her surprise, the man who came to her studio was mild mannered and buttoned down. Johann found this twist captivating, and it was then that this project was born. Over the ensuing twenty-year period, she photographed more than ninety playwrights, including many winners of the Pulitzer Prize and other prestigious awards.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Johann photographed Wendy Wasserstein, Anna Deavere Smith, August Wilson, and Nilo Cruz in the weeks after they won the Pulitzer. Tony Kushner sat for his portrait between the productions of part 1 and part 2 of ＜em＞Angels in America.＜/em＞ Eve Ensler came to Johann's studio during the week she was previewing her famous one-woman show, ＜em＞The Vagina Monologues＜/em＞, and George C. Wolfe sat for her the morning after his play Spunk opened at the Public Theater.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Each playwright was photographed in Johann's studio using the same film, a single light, and a plain backdrop, creating a portrait that captures and distills something essentialーan intimate view. Her interviews explore the writers' personal and creative journeys including their inspirations, roadblocks, and obsessions, which influenced their work on paper and on the stage. Even those who know Edward Albee's plays intimately, for example, may be surprised by his incisive wit and inimitable voice as revealed in his interview with Johann.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Beyond the book, ＜em＞Focus on Playwrights＜/em＞ is also a live, multimedia presentation in which Johann narrates an inside look at creativityーthe theater and photography. It has been given at such venues as the New Dramatists in New York, the Eugene O'Neill Theater, the Tryon Fine Arts Center and at the Photo Expo in New York.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

＜p＞Greek comedy flourished in the fifth and fourth centuries BC, both in and beyond Athens. Aristophanes and Menander are the best-known writers whose work is in part extant, but many other dramatists are known from surviving fragments of their plays. This sophisticated but accessible introduction explores the genre as a whole, integrating literary questions (such as characterisation, dramatic technique or diction) with contextual ones (for example audience response, festival context, interface with ritual or political frames). In addition, it also discusses relevant historical issues (political, socio-economic and legal) as well as the artistic and archaeological evidence. The result provides a unique panorama of this challenging area of Greek literature which will be of help to students at all levels and from a variety of disciplines but will also provide stimulus for further research.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

＜p＞These ballads convey a fantastic vision of the world as it was imagined in medieval Scandinavia, with monsters and magic intermingled with very human concerns of heroism, tragedy, love, and revenge.＜/p＞ ＜p＞The great hero Sigurd is joined in this collection by troll-battling warriors including Holger Dane, Orm the Strong, and others. There are dramatic scenes of romance, betrayal, and loss. Some of the ballads translated here are attested by paintings or maps that date from earlier than when the first full ballad texts were first written down in the 1500s. An adventure ballad relevant to the history of an Eddic poem is also included.＜/p＞ ＜p＞The ballads are storytelling songs that were passed down as part of an oral folk music tradition in Scandinavia. This collection brings many new ballads to the English-speaking reader. The readable verse translations succeed in conveying the rhythm, spirit, and imagery of the originals. The translations are mainly based on Swedish and Norwegian ballads, with some from Danish tradition.＜/p＞ ＜p＞For each ballad, there is also a short introduction with commentary and background information.＜/p＞ ＜p＞The ballads included are:＜br /＞ ?smund Fr?gdegjeva; Steinfinn Fefinnson; Esbj?rn Proud and Orm the Strong; Sunfair and the Dragon King; Bendik and ?rolilja; Sigurd Sven; Sivard Snare Sven; Little Lisa; Sven Norman and Miss Gullborg; Peter Pallebosson; Sir Svedendal; King Speleman; Holger Dane and Burman; Sven Felding; St Olaf’s Sailing Race.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

＜p＞Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2002 im Fachbereich Theaterwissenschaft, Tanz, Note: 1,3, Freie Universit?t Berlin (Institut f?r Theaterwissenschaft), Veranstaltung: Grundbegriffe der Theaterwissenschaft: Spiel, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Einleitung Die Quelle, aus dem die menschliche Gemeinschaft als Kultur entspringt, ist das kommunikative Handeln und damit das Spiel. Darunter subsumiert ist die Sprache, die Entstehung sozialer Verhaltensregeln und das Ged?chtnis als der diachrone Bezug von Geschehenem. Spielen bedeutet stets kommunizieren, bedeutet ?bermittlung von Information und ist damit Ausdruck einer kulturellen Leistung. In der vorliegenden Arbeit m?chte ich die These untersuchen, ob historisch und kulturell bedingte Inhalte durch das Spielen tradiert werden k?nnen - dabei dient das Spiel u.a. auch als kulturelles Ged?chtnis. Spielelemente sind auch im Theater enthalten, welches gleichzeitig innerhalb einer Kultur als Wissenssystem und Wissensspeicher dienen kann. Besonders deutlich wird der Zusammenhang zwischen Kultur, Geschichte, Spiel und Ged?chtnis im afro-brasilianischen Kampfspiels capoeira, welches ich in meiner Arbeit als Beispiel f?r die Verkn?pfung zwischen Spiel, Theater und kulturellem Ged?chtnis n?her untersuchen m?chte. Die capoeira ist ein orales, bewegungs- und k?rperorientiertes Wissenssystem, das spielerisch tradiert wird. Ich versuche zu zeigen, dass das Spiel die Struktur des kulturellen Ged?chtnisses bildet, eng an das religi?se Ritual ankn?pft und dadurch als eine Bew?ltigungsstrategie f?r ein soziales Drama, das sich in Kultur- und Sozialsysteme fortschreibt, funktionieren kann. Die capoeira weist wesentliche Elemente des Kampfs auf. Dennoch ist sie eher den Spielen zuzuordnen, bedeutet doch das brasilianische Wort 'jogar' spielen. Die nach Caillois definierten Spielelemente des Wettkampfs (Agon), der Nachahmung und Verkleidung (Mimikry) und des Rauschs (Ilinx) sind in diesem Spiel enthalten.
