 Название:Americans at Midlife: Caught between Generations Автор: Rosalie G. Genovese Издательство: Westport, Conn. : Bergin & Garvey Год: 1997 Формат: pdf Страниц: 150 Для сайта: Mirknig.su Размер: 9 MB Язык: English Americans at Midlife is an exploration of the middle years within the framework of trends in the larger society, including longer life expectancy and an aging population; changes in marriage, divorce, and family composition; increased participation of women in the labor force; and the growth of two-income families.Major interests at midlife center around work and careers, current and future economic well-being, and planning for retirement. Other major concerns involve relationships with younger and older generations: boomerang kids who leave home and return, and aging parents, often healthy and active now, who may need care in their later years.

 Название:Colonial Ch’olti’: The Seventeenth-Century Mor?n Manuscript Автор: John S. Robertson, Danny Law, Robbie A. Haertel Издательство: Norman : University of Oklahoma Press Год: 2010 Формат: pdf Страниц: 64 Для сайта: Mirknig.su Размер: 5 MB Язык: English At the time of the Spanish conquest, Ch’olti’ was spoken throughout much of the southern Maya lowlands in what is present-day Pet?n and Chiquimula, and is closely related to that spoken by the authors of the Classic Maya inscriptions. This book presents for the first time a facsimile, transcription, English and Spanish translation, and grammatical analysis of the Mor?n Manuscript, a Colonial-era document that provides the sole attestation of Ch’olti’. In addition to its value as a chronicle of the Colonial period, the Mor?n Manuscript is crucial to our understanding of the Classic Maya, particularly their language, captured in thousands of intricately carved and painted hieroglyphic inscriptions.

Nowhere was it more prevalent than it the countries now known as Peru and Bolivia.

 Название:American Drama in the Age of Film Автор: Zander Brietzke Издательство: Tuscaloosa : University of Alabama Press Год: 2007 Формат: pdf Страниц: 224 Для сайта: Mirknig.su Размер: 1 MB Язык: English Is theater really dead? Does the theater, as its champions insist, really provide a more intimate experience than film? If so, how have changes in cinematic techniques and technologies altered the relationship between stage and film? What are the inherent limitations of representing three-dimensional spaces in a two-dimensional one, and vice versa? American Drama in the Age of Film examines the strengths and weaknesses of both the dramatic and cinematic arts to confront the standard arguments in the film-versus-theater debate. Using widely known adaptations of ten major plays, Brietzke seeks to highlight the inherent powers of each medium and draw conclusions not just about how they differ, but how they ought to differ as well. He contrasts both stage and film productions of, among other works, David Mamet’s Glengarry Glen Ross, Sam Shepard’s True West, Edward Albee’s Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf, Margaret Edson’s Wit, Tony Kushner’s Angels in America, Tennessee Williams’s Cat on a Hot Tin Roof, Arthur Miller’s Death of a Salesman, and August Wilson’s The Piano Lesson.
