Abstract

"Granite and grace: seeking the heart of Yosemite reflects on Valerie and Michael Cohen's fifty-year encounter with the granite in the high country of Yosemite National Park, where they seek a sense of belonging in an era called the Anthropocene. By creating a dialogue between geological and literary representations, where the geological becomes metaphorical, while science turns mythological, these essays shaped by on-the-rock encounters with landforms, open up important experiential and pragmatic dimensions."--Provided by publisher.

Abstract

From his breakthrough short films in the early 1990s and feature debut TwentyFourSeven (1997) through to the BAFTA-winning This Is England (2007) and hit television spin-off, director Shane Meadows has emerged as one of the most distinctive and influential voices in contemporary British cinema. Danny Perkins, CEO of StudioCanal UK, credits Meadows as the key figure in British film's contemporary renaissance, with This Is England 'doing more than any other [film] to change British audiences' attitudes' to home-grown cinema. This book will explore the full range of Meadows' work, from its origins in local D.I.Y. media through to international festival acclaim. Over the course of its 15 chapters, it will present a comprehensive analysis of Meadows' oeuvre to date, situating it in the context of British cinema history as well as wider cultural changes from the nineties to now.

Abstract

Une multitude de termes désigne les espaces pâturés selon la variété de leur type et de leur utilisation : simples pâtures communes qui nourrissent chichement les moutons du village, prés appropriés fournissant un peu de foin, grasses prairies de bords de rivières donnant deux fenaisons par an, prairies encloses, labourées et mises en culture périodiquement pour les renouveler, et qui constituent la pièce « glorieuse » du domaine selon Olivier de Serres… Retenons enfin le rôle fondamental des prairies artificielles, à l’origine pour certains d’une véritable « révolution agricole ». Cette variété, dans l’espace et le temps long, fait l’intérêt de cet ouvrage qui replace la nourriture du bétail à sa vraie place dans l’agriculture traditionnelle : la première. Si le bonheur n’est pas dans le pré, la richesse s’y construit, comme l’ont montré les historiens, archéologues et ethnologues qui en ont approfondi l’étude.

Abstract

At a time when women were thought to succeed only in composing drawing-room songs or light-weight piano pieces, Alice Mary Smith (1839-1884) wrote by far the greatest number of larger-scale art works of any British woman composer in the nineteenth century. She was most probably the first woman to have written - and had performed - a symphony, composed in 1863 at the age of twenty-four. Two of her six concert overtures were regularly performed by distinguished conductors of the time, and her four cantatas for choir and orchestra achieved some popularity in the last years of her short life.

Abstract

Since the publication of the first edition of Grasses: Panicum to Danthonia in 1973, twenty additional taxa of grasses have been discovered in Illinois that are properly placed in this volume.

This second edition updates the status of grasses in Illinois. Paul W. Nelson has provided illustrations for all of the additions.Because the nature of grass structures is generally so different from that of other flowering plants,
