Описание: Book by Samuel Johnson, published in 1775. The Journey was the result of a three-month trip to Scotland that Johnson took with James Boswell in 1773. It contains Johnson's descriptions of the customs, religion, education, trade, and agriculture of a society that was new to him.
The account in Boswell's diary, published after Johnson's death as The Journal of a Tour to the Hebrides, with Samuel Johnson, LL.D. (1785), offers an intimate personal record of Johnson's behavior and conversation during the trip.

Описание: Agn's Varda, a pioneer of the French New Wave, has been making radical films for over half a century. Many of these are considered by scholars, filmmakers, and audiences alike, as audacious, seminal, and unforgettable. This volume considers her production as a whole, revisiting overlooked films like Mur, Murs/Documenteur (1980-81), and connecting her cinema to recent installation work. This study demonstrates how Varda has resisted norms of representation and diktats of production. It also shows how she has elaborated a personal repertoire of images, characters, and settings, which all provide insight on their cultural and political contexts. The book thus offers new readings of this director's multifaceted r'veries, arguing that her work should be seen as an aesthetically influential and ethically-driven production where cinema is both a political and collaborative practice, and a synesthetic art form.

Описание:
When thirteen people arrive at the St. Ignatius Retreat Center, a luxurious retreat house that rivals a four-star resort, they soon find out that in their midst is an adulterer, a pedophile, and a murderer.
Shortly after their arrival, they learn no one is going anywhere. As is typical this time of year, the Copper Canyon Train has ceased operations due to wintry blizzard conditions.
When Dana Greer, PI, arrives on the last train, she senses there's something about the holy place, isolated in the middle of nowhere - at an altitude of 12,000 feet - that unsettles her. In no time, she realizes that although she may be in a center of prayer, there are those around her who are hiding the darkest of sins.

Описание:
A young boy's body is found in his cell at the St. Aloysius Gonzaga Youth Home located in a small town in Texas in 1953. Dana Greer, private investigator under contract by the Catholic Church, is brought in to solve the case. While attempting to find the murderer, Dana realizes nothing is as it appears: the prison, run by a group of abusive Franciscan brothers, is a circus of horrors; the southern town of Punkerton is a cesspool of corruption and intolerance; and the Ku Klux Klan, lurking in the shadows, is eager to seek revenge even against the innocent.
SILENT BETRAYAL explores the effects of betrayal when people are not who they claim to be but, rather, hide behind masks of deception and lies. SILENT BETRAYAL revolves around a theme of good versus evil where no one is exempt from falling off a pedestal of grace into sin's darkness.
Описание: In this edition of Boswell`s "Life of Johnson", Marshall Waingrow offers a fresh reading of Boswell`s work. He charts the changes made during composition and at the proof stage, and corrects and explains the printer`s misreadings and author`s errors which crept into the final edition.
James Boswell's 'Life of Johnson', An Edition of the Original Manuscript, in Four Volumes; Vol. 4: 1780-1784
This volume is the final in the Yale Boswell Editions’ manuscript edition of the Life of Johnson, a four-volume sequence designed to stand as a research supplement to the Hill-Powell version of the Life. The first volume, edited by Marshall Waingrow and covering the years 1709–1765, appeared in 1994, and the second, 1766–1776, edited by Bruce Redford with Elizabeth Goldring, in 1998. The third, 1776-1780, edited by Thomas F. Bonnell was published in 2012. This fourth volume traces Boswell's processes of composition from first draft to final publication. It restores much deleted material and passages lost or overlooked at proof and revision stage. It also corrects a host of errors—from compositorial to misreadings—that have stood in all editions of Boswell’s biographical masterwork. Thomas Bonnell's annotation clarifies a range of textual issues, and sheds revealing light on Boswell's processes of selection and deletion.
