Описание:
When Vera Koo enrolled in a firearm safety course in the late 1980s, she couldn't have looked more out of a place. She was a petite, Chinese-American woman in a class of mostly men. She had no idea this ?man's world? was about to turn her life upside down. In The Most Unlikely Champion, she shares her story of perseverance that eventually transformed her into the most unlikely pistol champion, an eight-time winner of the Bianchi Cup, America's most prestigious action-pistol championship. In this memoir, she narrates how she had plenty of experience as a woman in a man's world. She?d grown up in Hong Kong, where conservative Chinese values told women their place was in the home, where they would serve their husbands as supportive wives and mothers. When Koo was twelve, her father moved the family to the United States. With new opportunities came new challenges. Koo and her husband, Carlos, navigated the male-dominated world of real estate, only to find their business teetering on the brink of bankruptcy. They tried to build a family, but were shaken, time and again, by unexpected tragedies. Throughout the journey, she developed a deep faith in God which helped her the survive pain and disappointment threatening to crush her. The Most Unlikely Champion tells a story of triumph and tragedy, persistence, and pain. But more than that, it's about how faith and hard work can help a person achieve more than they thought possible.

Описание: This monograph conducts a comprehensive analysis of the EU right of communication to the public, one of the exclusive rights under EU copyright law, and provides an alternative framework for its interpretation and application. The present state of the law is unsatisfactory; there is uncertainty in the acquis communautaire and courts at the EU and domestic levels have struggled to apply the right. Therefore, the book identifies the problems with the existing right of communication to the public and proposes recommendations for reform. In addition to reforming the scope of the right of communication to the public, the jurisdiction and applicable law in relation to the right are analysed and changes are recommended. Thus, the book covers both the scope and practicalities of a coherent and effective reform of the right. In light of the continuing development and accompanying tribulations with this right at the EU level, this book provides a topical and timely analysis that will be of interest to academics and practitioners working on EU copyright law.

Описание:
Queen Elizabeth I was an iconic figure in England during her reign, with many contemporary English portraits and literary works extolling her virtue and political acumen. In Spain, however, her image was markedly different. While few Spanish fictional or historical writings focus primarily on Elizabeth, numerous works either allude to her or incorporate her as a character.
The Image of Elizabeth I in Early Modern Spain explores the fictionalized, historical, and visual representations of Elizabeth I and their impact on the Spanish collective imagination. Drawing on works by Miguel de Cervantes, Lope de Vega, Pedro de Ribadeneira, Luis de Góngora, Cristóbal de Virués, Antonio Coello, and Calderón de la Barca, among others, the contributors to this volume limn contradictory assessments of Elizabeth’s physical appearance, private life, personality, and reign. In doing so they articulate the various and sometimes conflicting ways in which the Tudor monarch became both the primary figure in English propaganda efforts against Spain and a central part of the Spanish political agenda.
This edited volume revives and questions the image of Elizabeth I in early modern Spain as a means of exploring how the queen’s persona, as mediated by its Spanish reception, has shaped the ways in which we understand Anglo-Spanish relations during a critical era for both kingdoms.
