This is the indispensable bible of photography in the 20th century. The history of photography began over a century and a half ago, but only relatively recently has it been fully recognised as a medium in its own right. Cologne's Museum Ludwig was the first museum of contemporary art to devote a substantial section to international photography. The L. Fritz Gruber collection, from which this book is drawn, is one of the most important in Germany and one of the most representative anywhere in the world, constituting the core of the museum's holdings. This book provides a fascinating insight into the collection's rich diversity; from conceptual art to abstraction to reportage, all of the major movements and genres are represented via a vast selection of the century's most remarkable photographs. From Ansel Adams to Piet Zwart, over 850 works are presented in alphabetical order by photographer, with descriptive texts and photographers' biographical details, providing a comprehensive and indispensable overview of 20th century photography.

Die Geschichte der modernen Mode - von der Haute Couture zum Massenmarkt§§Im 20. Jahrhundert entwickelte sich die Mode von einem reinen Geschäft der exklusiven Pariser Salons, die einer reichen Elite zu Diensten waren, zu einer weltweiten Industrie mit Millionen von Beschäftigten. Neue Trends schlugen sich in den Läden nieder, kaum dass das letzte Model den Laufsteg verlassen hatte. Im Laufe der Zeit entwickelte sich die typische weibliche Silhouette bis zur Unkenntlichkeit: Die Krinolinen von House of Worth machten Vionnets schräg geschnittenen Kleidern Platz, Diors New Look musste Quants Chelsea Look weichen, und auf die weißen Hosenanzüge von Halston folgten tief geschnittene Jeans von Frankie B. In der Herrenmode bedeuteten Konfektionsanzüge den Niedergang der Maßschneiderei, lange bevor Hawaiihemden, superschmale Krawatten und Baggy-Hosen aufkamen.§§20th Century Fashion bietet eine elegante Retrospektive der Mode der vergangenen hundert Jahre, die durch 400 Modeanzeigen aus der Jim Heimann Collection veranschaulicht wird. Mit der Bildsprache aus einem Jahrhundert Werbung dokumentiert dieses Buch das unablässige Fortschreiten der Mode, die gleichzeitig im Lauf der Jahrzehnte zu einem Teil der Massenkultur wurde. Eine umfassende Einleitung, Kapitel zu jedem Jahrzehnt und eine illustrierte Zeitleiste stellen Modemacher und Trendsetter von der Haute Couture bis zum Massenmarkt im Detail vor. Und nicht zuletzt geht es darum, wie historische Ereignisse, Designermarken, Handelsketten, Filme, Zeitschriften und Prominente Einfluss darauf nehmen, wie wir uns kleiden - damals wie heute.

Blue at the Mizzen (novel #20) ended with Jack Aubrey getting the news, in Chile, of his elevation to flag rank: Rear Admiral of the Blue Squadron, with orders to sail to the South Africa station. The next novel, unfinished and untitled at the time of the author's death, would have been the chronicle of that mission, and much else besides. The three chapters left on O'Brian's desk are presented here both in printed version-including his corrections to the typescript-and a facsimile of his manuscript, which goes several pages beyond the end of the typescript to include a duel between Stephen Maturin and an impertinent officer who is courting his fiancee. Of course we would rather have had the whole story; instead we have this proof that O'Brian's powers of observation, his humor, and his understanding of his characters were undiminished to the end."

Pourquoi la démocratie libérale est-elle en crise ? Sommes-nous à l’aube d’une nouvelle guerre mondiale ? Que faire devant l’épidémie de « fake news » ? Quelle civilisation domine le monde : l’Occident, la Chine ou l’Islam ? Que pouvons-nous faire face au terrorisme ? Que devons-nous enseigner à nos enfants ?Avec l’intelligence, la perspicacité et la clarté qui ont fait le succès mondial de Sapiens et Homo deus, Yuval Noah Harari décrypte le XXIe siècle sous tous ses aspects – politique, social, technologique, environnemental, religieux, existentiel... Un siècle de mutations dont nous sommes les acteurs et auquel nous pouvons encore redonner sens par notre engagement. Car si le futur de l’humanité se décide sans nous, nos enfants n’échapperont pas aux conséquences.De l’immigration à l’intelligence artificielle, du climat aux religions, Yuval Noah Harari dresse un portrait lumineux de notre époque. Le Point.Un ouvrage magistral. Libération.Traduit de l’anglais par Pierre-Emmanuel Dauzat.

In Eine kurze Geschichte der Menschheit erzählte er vom Aufstieg des Homo Sapiens zum Herrn der Welt. In Homo Deus ging es um die Zukunft unserer Spezies. Mit seinem neuen Buch schaut Yuval Noah Harari, einer der aufregendsten Denker der Gegenwart, nun auf das Hier und Jetzt und stellt die drängenden Fragen unserer Zeit. Warum ist die liberale Demokratie in der Krise? Ist Gott zurück? Soll Europa offen bleiben für Zuwanderer? Kann der Nationalismus eine Antwort geben auf Klimawandel und soziale Ungleichheit? Was sollen wir unseren Kindern beibringen? Und können wir die Welt überhaupt noch verstehen, die wir erschaffen haben? Yuval Noah Harari hat Millionen Leser auf der ganzen Welt in seinen Bann geschlagen. In seinem neuen Buch lädt er dazu ein, über Werte, Bedeutung und persönliches Engagement in einer Zeit voller Lärm und Ungewissheit nachzudenken. In einer Welt, die überschwemmt wird mit bedeutungslosen Informationen, ist Klarheit Macht. Doch Milliarden von uns können sich kaum den Luxus leisten, sich mit den drängenden Fragen der Gegenwart zu beschäftigen, weil wir Dringenderes zu erledigen haben. Leider gewährt die Geschichte keinen Rabatt. Wenn über die Zukunft der Menschheit in unserer Abwesenheit entschieden wird, weil wir zu sehr damit beschäftigt sind, unsere Kinder zu ernähren und mit Kleidung zu versorgen, werden wir und sie dennoch nicht von den Folgen verschont bleiben. Dieses Buch versorgt die Menschen nicht mit Kleidung oder Nahrung. Aber es kann helfen, die Dinge ein wenig klarer zu sehen, und damit das globale Spielfeld etwas einebnen. Wenn es auch nur ein paar mehr von uns in die Lage versetzt, sich an der Diskussion über die Zukunft unserer Spezies zu beteiligen, so hat es seine Aufgabe erfüllt.

Yuval Noah Harari ist der Weltstar unter den Historikern. In "Eine kurze Geschichte der Menschheit" erzählte er vom Aufstieg des Homo Sapiens zum Herrn der Welt. In "Homo Deus" ging es um die Zukunft unserer Spezies. Sein neues Buch schaut auf das Hier und Jetzt und konfrontiert uns mit den drängenden Fragen unserer Zeit.Wie unterscheiden wir Wahrheit und Fiktion im Zeitalter der Fake News? Was sollen wir unseren Kindern beibringen? Wie können wir in unserer unübersichtlichen Welt moralisch handeln? Wie bewahren wir Freiheit und Gleichheit im 21. Jahrhundert? Seit Jahrtausenden hat die Menschheit über den Fragen gebrütet, wer wir sind und was wir mit unserem Leben anfangen sollen. Doch jetzt setzen uns die heraufziehende ökologische Krise, die wachsende Bedrohung durch Massenvernichtungswaffen und der Aufstieg neuer disruptiver Technologien unter Zeitdruck. Bald schon wird irgendjemand darüber entscheiden müssen, wie wir die Macht nutzen, die künstliche Intelligenz und Biotechnologie bereit halten. Dieses Buch will möglichst viele Menschen dazu anregen, sich an den großen Debatten unserer Zeit zu beteiligen, damit die Antworten nicht von den blinden Kräften des Marktes gegeben werden.

How can we protect ourselves from nuclear war, ecological cataclysms and technological disruptions? What can we do about the epidemic of fake news or the threat of terrorism? What should we teach our children? Yuval Noah Harari takes us on a thrilling journey through today's most urgent issues. The golden thread running through his exhilarating new book is the challenge of maintaining our collective and individual focus in the face of constant and disorienting change.Are we still capable of understanding the world we have created?

Scored by Thomas F. Heck for solo violin with classical guitar accompaniment, this collection includes pieces from Volumes 1-3 of the Suzuki Violin School. Heck, a guitarist and Suzuki parent, intended the arrangements to serve as interesting alternative accompaniments to the Violin School repertoire. The contrapuntal interest and enriched timbral possibilities of the violin-with-guitar combination result in unusually appealing chamber music performance pieces suited for young musicians. The intermediate to advanced level classical guitar notation is supplemented by chord symbols to enable non-classically trained guitarists to accompany the violin line. Contents are: Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star Theme and Variations (Shinichi Suzuki) * Song of the Wind (Folk Song) * Go Tell Aunt Rhody (Folk Song) * O Come, Little Children (Folk Song) * May Song (Folk Song) * Long, Long Ago (T.H.

By the time Jack was fifteen he was addicted to alcohol and prescription drugs, was hanging out with rock stars in LA and living a life that any teenager would aspire to. And then The Osbournes turned him into a global celebrity. But as much as Jack enjoyed his fame, underneath it all he was still an awkward teenager, using his sense of humour as a shield. And with fame and money came a greater access to drugs - his addictions took a firmer hold on him and his behaviour was soon out of control. In 21 Years Gone Jack writes with brutal frankness about his descent into addiction and the low point he reached when Sharon was diagnosed with cancer. Scared that his mum might die, Jack retreated further into his alcoholic shell, hating who he was, hating what he did. Every night he would get into bed and pray for God to take his life. When Sharon realised what was happening she told Jack he had to go to rehab - and slowly he turned his life around.Discovering a passion for extreme sports, he went from overweight and unfit to the lean young man he is today - courtesy of such adventures as running with the bulls in Pamplona, fighting a Thai martial arts expert known only as 'The Man' and scaling El Capitan, one of the world's toughest climbs. By turns funny, disarmingly honest and moving, 21 Years Gone is the amazing story of young man who has confronted his demons and defeated them.
