La historia de uno de los mejores grupos de todos los tiempos. Un aprendiz de dentista, un técnico electrónico, un futuro astrónomo y un estudiante de diseño desubicado, congeniaron sus intereses, inquietudes y anhelos para cambiar el mundo a base de canciones. Roger Taylor, Brian May, John Deacon y Freddie Mercury, cuatro jóvenes británicos, consiguieron crear la banda de rock más admirada del planeta, que hoy en día, medio siglo después de que subieran por primera vez a un escenario como Queen, siguen provocando pasiones, llenando estadios y siendo uno de los grupos más importantes del universo rock. Pero mucho más allá de construir esa maravillosa maquinaria llamada Queen, estos cuatro jóvenes consiguieron levantar un mito, la leyenda más importante del mundo del rock: Freddie Mercury.

Lands of In-Ko-8 Trilogy The planet Earth enveloped Inchoate, a dark-matter world at the birth of the solar system. Each evolved separately but not independently. The civilizations of Inchoate flourished until a disaster flung the world to the Sirius star system where it remained for a millennium. Scientists finally restored Inchoate to its rightful place in the galaxy, but the resulting damage, chaos, and greed led to conflict, confusion, and wars. A few brave leaders of the blue, green, and gray people almost brought order when a totally unexpected visit by star wanderers intervened. A review by Kirkus Discoveries: "Fisher's complex story of faith, political schemes, death, and science brings characters new and old into the fray, and further explores characters in the strange world of Inchoate. The world of Inchoate is on the brink of disaster, leading scientists to return the dark-matter planet to its former haunt within the planet Earth. The task is made possible via the ingenious travalink, a device that allows near-light transport from one part of the universe to the other. The planet's inhabitants are no sooner settled in to their old home, however, before unearthing a...

Satire, Celebrity, and Politics in Jane Austen

Satire, Celebrity, and Politics in Jane Austen

Autor: Jocelyn Harris

Número de Páginas: 389

In Satire, Celebrity, and Politics in Jane Austen, Jocelyn Harris argues thatJane Austen was a satirist, a celebrity-watcher,and a keen political observer.In Mansfield Park, she appears to baseFanny Price on Fanny Burney, criticizethe royal heir as unfit to rule, and exposeSusan Burney’s cruel husband throughMr. Price. In Northanger Abbey, she satirizes the young Prince of Wales as the vulgar John Thorpe; in Persuasion, she attacks both the regent’s failure to retrench, and his dangerous desire to become another Sun King. For Elizabeth Bennet in Pride and Prejudice, Austen may draw on the actress Dorothy Jordan, mistress of the pro-slavery Duke of Clarence, while her West Indian heiress in Sanditon may allude to Sara Baartman, who was exhibited in Paris and London as “The Hottentot Venus,” and adopted as a test case by the abolitionists. Thoroughly researched and elegantly written, this new book by Jocelyn Harris contributes significantly to the growing literature about Austen’s worldiness by presenting a highly particularized web of facts, people, texts, and issues vital to her historical moment.

Autor: Micheal Houlahan , Philip Tacka

Número de Páginas: 577

Since the mid-twentieth century, Zoltán Kodály's child-developmental philosophy for teaching music has had significant positive impact on music education around the world, and is now at the core of music teaching in the United States and other English speaking countries. Kodály in the Kindergarten Classroom is the first comprehensive handbook to update and apply the Kodály concepts to teaching music in early childhood classrooms. Kodály in the Kindergarten Classroom provides teachers with a step-by-step road map for developing children's performance, creative movement, and literacy skills in an organic and thoughtful manner. Through six years of field-testing with music kindergarten teachers in the United States, Great Britain, and Hungary (the home country of Zoltán Kodály), authors Micheál Houlahan and Philip Tacka have developed a methodology specifically for 21st century classrooms. Houlahan and Tacka use the latest research findings in cognition and perception to create a system not only appropriate for kindergarteners' particular developmental stages but also one which integrates vertically between kindergarten and elementary music classes. The methods outlined in...

Book 2 in the TELLING Series. It is often quiet in the dark but when it’s too quiet, fear can push men to madness. Fergus is no stranger to either, having survived both. He was a ‘Charmer,’ a healer, that some called a wizard but when he couldn’t save a child, they called him a witch. Because he was different… not the full size of a man, nor was his skin the shade of those who could so readily cast stones, they set upon him. And he burned for it… There are truths hidden within myths and legends, but not all are mired in atrocity, some are soaked in the blood of horrors. His connection to one man brought him to a crossroads and regardless of the direction chosen, the destination was the same… Chuartan’toll. But it's his connection to Death that makes him a pawn in a plan, one that will bring him to darkness… unleash a darkness… Upon us all.

Two individuals from different countries but who share one ancestral bloodline race to thwart a terrorist plot in Jerusalem—the first heart-pounding book in a new epic trilogy that delves into the dark underbelly of the Holy City. Bilal, a radicalized Palestinian youth, is promised paradise if he destroys the Western Wall. But his attempted terrorist attack fails and he finds himself in the hands of a young Jewish surgeon, Yael Cohen. After saving his life, Yael makes the startling discovery that her DNA and Bilal’s are nearly identical, sparking suspicion that their connection is greater than mere coincidence. Their search for answers soon puts them in the middle of a high-stakes international conspiracy—one that has its roots in the blood of thousands, and now threatens to spill the blood of thousands more. Unknown to Bilal and Yael, theirs is the last chapter in a story that crosses millennia. Century after century, two ancient families—bloodline ancestors of Yael and Bilal—defied the power of corrupt kings and conquerors, fighting to forge an alliance and lasting peace. But through many years of secret dealings and war, kinships were shattered, dynasties fell apart,...
