Frankie Morris


Artist Of Wonderland: The Life, Political Cartoons, And Illustrations Of Tenniel (Victorian Literature and Culture Series) Frankie Morris Book DescriptionBest known today as the illustrator for Lewis Carroll's Alice books, John Tenniel was the Victorian era's chief political cartoonist. This extensively illustrated book is the first to draw almost exclusively on primary sources in family collections, public archives, and other depositories. Frankie Morris examines Tenniel's life and work, producing a book that is not only a definitive resource for scholars and collectors but one that can be easily enjoyed by everyone interested in Victorian life and art, social history, journalism and political cartoons, and illustrated books.

According to his countrymen Tenniel's work-and his... книги, книжный магазин, интернет-магазин Book DescriptionBest known today as the illustrator for Lewis Carroll's Alice books, John Tenniel was the Victorian era's chief political cartoonist.

Jenefer Shute


User I.D. Jenefer Shute Book DescriptionCoursing with mordant wit and fierce intelligence, User ID is an elegant, utterly absorbing examination of the mutual obsession between an identity thief and her mark. Charlene Cummins, who sells cosmetics at an LA drugstore, is desperatefor the better life she knows is out there for the taking. Vera de Sica, underachieving resident of Manhattan and (sort of) professor of English, is the woman whose identity she purloins. Nothing has been going right for Vera since she arrived in Los Angeles to deliver a speech at a conference: she has felt unappreciated (her presentation was sparsely attended), slightly dazed (there's too much light in the City of Angels), and disoriented (the freeways make her nervous).

Fib and Phi in Music: The Golden Proportion Musical Form (Inmusic)

Charles Madden


Fib and Phi in Music: The Golden Proportion Musical Form (Inmusic) Charles Madden Book DescriptionThis study of the use of the golden proportion in classical music shows that 53 of the 70 composers studied used it to structure their works, some of them knowingly. Since this is seldom discussed in courses in music theory, this book should be a major contribution to our understanding of musical structure. книги, книжный магазин, интернет-магазин Book DescriptionThis study of the use of the golden proportion in classical music shows that 53 of the 70 composers studied used it to structure their works, some of them knowingly.
