Описание: Plot summary In Southern California, shortly after the Mexican-American War, a Scots-Native American orphan girl, Ramona, is raised by Senora Gonzaga Moreno, the sister of Ramona's deceased foster mother. Ramona is referred to as illegitimate in some summaries of the novel, but chapter 3 of the novel says that Ramona's parents were married by a priest in the San Gabriel Mission. Se ora Moreno has raised Ramona as part of the family, giving her every luxury, but only because Ramona's foster mother had requested it as her dying wish. Because of Ramona's mixed Native American heritage, Moreno does not love her. That love is reserved for her only child, Felipe Moreno, whom she adores. Senora Moreno considers herself a Mexican, although California has recently been taken over by the United States. She hates the Americans, who have cut up her huge rancho after disputing her claim to it. Senora Moreno delays the sheep shearing, a major event on the rancho, awaiting the arrival of a group of Native Americans from Temecula whom she always hires for that work. She is also awaiting a priest, Father Salvierderra, from Santa Barbara. She arranges for the priest so that the Native American workers can worship and make confession in her chapel, rather than leaving the rancho. Ramona falls in love with Alessandro, a young Native American sheepherder and the son of Pablo Assis, the chief of the tribe. Se ora Moreno is outraged, because although Ramona is half-Native American, the Se ora does not want her to marry a Native American. Ramona realizes that Senora Moreno has never loved her and she and Alessandro elope. Alessandro and Ramona have a daughter, and travel around Southern California trying to find a place to settle. In the aftermath of the war, Alessandro's tribe was driven off their land, marking the beginning of European-American settlement in California. They endure misery and hardship, for the Americans who buy their land also demand their houses and their farm tools. Greedy Americans drive them off from several homesteads, and they cannot find a permanent community that is not threatened by encroachment of United States settlers. They finally move up into the San Bernardino Mountains. Alessandro slowly loses his mind, due to the constant humiliation. He loves Ramona fiercely, and regrets having taken her away from relative comfort in return for "bootless" wandering. Their daughter "Eyes of the Sky" dies because a white doctor would not go to their homestead to treat her. They have another daughter, named Ramona, but Alessandro still suffers. One day he rides off with the horse of an American, who follows him and shoots him, although he knew that Alessandro was mentally unbalanced. Biography She was born in Amherst, Massachusetts, Nathan Welby Fiske and Deborah Waterman Vinal. She had two brothers, who died shortly after their birth, and one sister, Anne. His father was a Protestant pastor, writer and professor of Latin, Greek and Philosophy at Amherst College. His mother died in 1844 and his father in 1847, leaving her in the care of an aunt. Until then, he had provided her with a good education: she had attended the Ipswich Women's Seminary and the Abbott Institute, an institution headed by Reverend J.S.C. Abbott in New York. She was a classmate of the future poet Emily Dickinson, also born in Amherst. They exchanged a correspondence all their lives, but few of their letters have been preserved. In 1852 Helen Fiske married Captain Edward Bissell Hunt of the United States Army, who died in a military accident in 1863. Their son Murray Hunt died in 1854 of a cerebral disease; The second, Rennie Hunt, died of diphtheria in 1865. Helen Hunt began writing after this last loss. She traveled a great deal. During the winter of 1873-74 she went to Colorado Springs to treat tuberculosis. She met William Sharpless Jackson, a rich banker who worked on the railways, and they married in 1875.

Описание:
Pictures of the Mind is the first integrated study of Surrealist photography and film, assessing the impact of early experimental practice and theoretical discourse on prominent post-war trends in art house cinema. Roland Barthes’s interpretation of the photographic image, alongside Jacques Derrida’s concepts of spectrality and trace, underscore an exploration of the recurrent references to the phantomatic aspect of photography and film in Surrealist theoretical writings and practice. The analysis uses Derrida’s account of the uncanny to shed light on the Surrealist conception of photographic and film images as mental constructs, or pictures of the mind, rather than mere visual representations. This leads to a consideration of the similarities between the Surrealist conception of beauty as fixed-explosive and Gilles Deleuze’s theory of the time-image as applied to Luis Bu?uel’s films. Ultimately, the impact of Surrealism on post-war cinema is assessed as part of a wider consideration of the status of photographic and filmic images in the age of digital cinema. The elaboration of an aesthetics of spectrality in early Surrealism is shown to have had lasting implications for a range of post-war filmmakers such as Chris Marker, Maya Deren, Nelly Kaplan, Federico Fellini, Andrei Tarkovsky, Jan Svankmajer, Akira Kurosawa, Alejandro Jodorowsky, Guillermo del Toro, Guy Maddin, Terry Gilliam and David Lynch.

Описание: Does it matter that in 2001, then merely a deputy City Attorney but now-Senator Kamala Harris ignored mail theft, attempted murder, tampering of evidence, and perjury in court documents? The story of how a (now deceased) San Francisco firefighter, in 1998, made one phone call and got the Political Machine to go to work for him, as told with the help of a selection of the official, legal and personal correspondence that was executed during a decade on the losing end of a prima facie case of municipal racketeering, a private petty paper war that destroyed my motherhood, devastated my marriage, stole my beauty, and made me the most hated woman buried under Willie Brown's city hall. HERE'S A LEGAL RIDDLE: What's worse than the crime? Everybody knows it's the cover-up. But what's worse than a cover-up? That's when those in charge of those who looked the other way keep on climbing into ever-bigger seats of power. Specifically TWO women, former deputy city attorneys. First, it was Katherine Feinstein, in charge of the prosecution of my family 1998-2000, who (as well as being the daughter of California's sr. senator, Dianne Feinstein) went on to become a judge on the Superior Court of San Francisco, was installed on the State of California's judicial performance panel, and was recently appointed by Governor Jerry Brown to the Medical Board. Second woman was Kamala Harris, in charge of the persecution of what was left of my family by 2000-2001, the former mistress of then-mayor Willie Brown, who went on to be the twice-elected D.A. of San Francisco, the California Attorney General, and who is now a Senator. Her sister was one of Hillary Clinton's policy advisors. Her brother-in-law was Obama's assistant General Attorney in charge of Civil Rights. Oxygen starting to thin out at this high altitude. 6/12 July 1999 we, the plaintiffs, Greg & Ramona Mayon, quietly settled out-of-court with I.A.F.F. local #798. However, from 10 July 1998 until 11 July 2001, the City Attorney's office blocked our God-given, Constitutional right-to-travel, to return to family & land with our remaining children, forcing us to remain in one of America's most costly cities, against our will, under court-order to remain here. We were forced to raise our children in an urban setting when we are country people, our children denied their right to know their grandparents and their native Louisiana. But we never lost physical custody of the children, only legal custody. Those three years were spent with the City Attorney's Office of San Francisco systematically destroying our reputation, using the dozen of lies supplied by Children Protective Services, are all documented within this manuscript. Most of the documents I used as the foundation for this manuscript (and case) are marked 'Confidential' and comes with their own penal code. I, the person being talked about, have no right to this paper. So it was a struggle to even get it. But if need be, I will argue before any judge that I am called to stand before that the City Attorney's office cracked the judicial firewall, not I, by using this so-called 'confidentiality clause' to commit crimes. Those with dirty hands cannot hide them behind a cloak of confidentiality. Throughout this time, like any ordinary citizen, I went to the SFPD, the FBI and every court that I could think of, I petitioned over & over, but they all folded their hands and did nothing. We have been turned down by nearly every lawyer in town and even had the displeasure of having the SF Bar Assoc. tell me that no one here has the resources to help you. Even the F.B.I. told me to let go and get on with life. Don't kid yourself that the almighty FBI isn't a political operative when it suits them. As the old legal adage goes, the only successful defense for a slander/libel case is to be able to prove you are telling the truth. I have used hundreds of the City's own documents to do just that.
