Story1
Author, artist, and retired Deputy Head Jo Johnson was born and brought up in Greenock in the West of Scotland. Educated at Greenock Academy until the age of 14, he experienced a profound culture shock when the family relocated to Kilwinning in Ayrshire where he found himself in a much rougher school environment. Born into a devoutly Christian family, Jo had to balance the competing demands of "church and state" at an early age. His story is peppered with entertaining, poignant, and occasionally unpleasant memories of growing up in 1960s Greenock and 1970s Ayrshire.

In this insightful and provocative book, comics-industry veteran Danny Fingeroth explores the backgrounds of the most well-known superheroes and their creators—largely young American Jewish men from Eastern European backgrounds. These innovators include Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster, Will Eisner, and Stan Lee and Jack Kirby. In Disguised as Clark Kent, Fingeroth explores how the creators’ Jewish backgrounds helped make superheroes the most familiar popular-culture icons of all.

Самая знаменитая балерина прошлого столетия - Анна Павлова. В детстве ее считали слишком худой и нескладной, в ее успех не верил практически никто, никто, кроме самой Анны Павловой. Оказавшись однажды с матерью на балете в Мариинском театре, девочка буквально "заболела" танцами.

Story1
Paul Frigyes tes, att Jan Guillou är "larger than life", bekräftades kanske när utgivningen av boken från början stoppades på Guillous begäran. Biografin innehåller nu ett nytt kapitel som behandlar historien. Personen, yrkesmannen och fenomenet Jan Guillou skildras med rätt och fel som absoluta kategorier. Guillou rannsakade på egen hand myndigheters maktmissbruk men var samtidigt en kontroversiell skriftställare och en stor idrottstalang.

Un peintre, un homme, un génie. Picasso fut un homme pour qui peindre voulait dire voir, et qui mieux que personne "vit" son siècle. Visionnaire, oui. Engagé corps et biens dans son absolu. Homme public dont l'existence tumultueuse fascina toujours les foules, il était aussi un personnage farouche, secret, imprévisible. Des premiers pigeons crayonnés de Málaga aux périodes bleue et rose, des folles années montmartroises aux Demoiselles d'Avignon, de l'explosion surréaliste à Guernica.

Une tombe dans un cimetière de l'Île-de-France : "Vincent Willem Van Gogh, né à Groot-Zundert (Hollande) le 30 mars 1853, mort à Auvers-sur-Oise (France) le 29 juillet 1890." Ces informations laconiques évoquent à elles seules en filigrane le parcours d'une vie : le pasteur que Vincent aurait voulu être dans son pays natal, comme son père, comme son grand-père ; l'errant qu'il fut, à Bruxelles, Amsterdam, La Haye, Paris, Arles, Saint-Rémy-de-Provence et Auvers enfin.

Denominado en la historia del arte como "el primer moderno", fue un notable escultor francés contemporáneo a la corriente Impresionista. Enmarcado en el academicismo más absoluto de la escuela escultórica neoclásica, Rodin es el escultor encargado no sólo de poner fin a más de dos siglos en busca de la mimesis en las artes tridimensionales, sino de dar además un nuevo rumbo a la ya obsoleta concepción del monumento y la escultura pública.

Since 1968, Garry Trudeau (b. 1948) has brought his brand of political satire to bear on public figures, movie stars, heads of state, and even on himself. Trudeau has also advocated for artists' rights and challenged industry norms while keeping a decidedly low profile. In Garry Trudeau: Doonesbury and the Aesthetics of Satire, Kerry D. Soper traces the contribution of this groundbreaking artist. Trudeau is arguably the premier American political and social satirist of the last forty years. Amazingly, he achieved this on the comics page, rather than the editorial page.

Nach über 55 Jahren taucht Annie Ernaux ein in das Jahr 1958. Den Sommer verbringt sie in einem Feriencamp in der Normandie. Gemeinsam mit anderen Betreuern feiert sie Partys und genießt ihre Jugend. Und sie verbringt ihre erste Nacht mit einem Mann, eine erste sexuelle Erfahrung, die sie voller Scham mit in spätere Jahre trägt - und die sie fortan versucht zu vergessen. Annie Ernaux wirft einen Blick zurück auf das Mädchen, das sie einmal war. Doch sie schreibt auch über die Natur des Begehrens, über die Rolle der Frau und das Vergehen der Zeit.
