Описание: The name Valentino has been synonymous with high fashion for almost fifty years. Based in Rome, Valentino is only one of two couture houses recognized by the French government outside of Paris. His exquisite designs are coveted and worn by young Hollywood and high society the world over. On the occasion of his last couture collection, presented in Paris in the spring of 2008, this landmark book celebrates forty-five years of Valentino's remarkable career. Published in association with a prestigious exhibition at the Musee des Arts Decoratifs's famed costume department in Paris, this volume focuses on Valentino's haute couture creations, highlighting the most important and iconic creations of his half-century in fashion through recurring themes in Valentino's work--variations on the ideas of volume, line, and texture as well as motifs such as geometry, pleats, and flowers--through new photography, sketches, fabric samples, and commentary on the dresses by Valentino himself. In addition, unprecedented photography by Francois Halard of Valentino's last fittings and backstage of his runway show reveals Valentino's private world for the first time. "Valentino On Valentino," a chapter of first-person accounts of the designs of these iconic dresses, along with Valentino's commentary on his fashion, will make this publication unique in the study of Valentino as a cultural and artistic icon.

Описание: In 1922, Rudolph Valentino was one of the most famous men alive. But few knew that the star had a dirty secret that he desperately wanted to bury. The lurid tale began a decade earlier when former Yale football star and notorious playboy Jack de Saulles made headlines across three continents by pursuing the beautiful young Chilean heiress Blanca Errбzuriz, known as the Star of Santiago. After the birth of their son, though, the marriage soured. Jack was going after every chorus girl on Broadway, claiming that Blanca had banished him from their bed. By 1916, Blanca wanted a divorce, rare then and even more so in a wealthy, powerful Catholic family. Enter Valentino, then still known as Rodolfo Guglielmi, a professional dancer in New York City, famous for the Argentinean tango. Blanca discovered that her husband had been sleeping with Joan Sawyer, Rodolfo's dance partner, so she set about cultivating the hungry young performer. Whether Blanca and Guglielmi became lovers remains unclear, but the ambitious Italian gave evidence on her behalf in divorce court. Furious, de Saulles had Guglielmi arrested on trumped-up vice charges, tarnishing the dancer's reputation. But Blanca was fighting bigger battles. De Saulles's family had been pulling strings, persuading the courts to grant him partial custody of their child. When it appeared that he wasn't going to return the boy to his mother's care, Blanca exploded. On a sweltering August night in 1917, she drove to Jack's mansion and shot him dead. Several people witnessed the act, but Blanca's family hired the best defense lawyer around, who salvaged de Saulles's reputation and made Blanca out to be a saint. During the most sensational trial of the decade, millions devoured the juicy details of how a high-society marriage violently unraveled. Guglielmi, desperate to avoid further poisonous publicity, fled to California, changed his name to Rudolph Valentino, and the rest is Hollywood history.
Описание: The current offering from Nova Science Publishers titled Understanding the Schrodinger Equation: Some [Non]Linear Perspectives is a collection of selectively invited manuscripts from some of the worlds leading workers in quantum dynamics; particularly as concerning Schrodingers wavefunction formalism. The work is dedicated to providing an illustrative sketch of a few of the numerous and sundry aspects of the Schrodinger equation; ranging from a new pedagogical teaching approach, to technical applications and foundational considerations. Towards this end, the work is generally of a theoretical nature; expounding various physical aspects of both linear and nonlinear Schrodinger systems and their attendant mathematical developments. Expressly, the book contains A chapter meant to give a new pedagogical paradigm for teaching an understanding of quantum mechanics, via the Schrodinger equation as an extension of probability theory. A chapter addressing the Schrodinger equation written in the second quantization formalism, derived from first principles; towards a deeper understanding of classical-quantum correspondence. A chapter discussing the connection between the Schrodinger equation and one of the most intuitive research fields in classical mechanics: the theory of nonlinear water waves. A chapter which investigates wave solutions of the generalized nonlinear time-dependent Schrodinger-like equation describing a cosmogonical body formation. A chapter addressing the nonlinear Schrodinger equation: a mathematical model with its wide-ranging applications and analytical results. A chapter investigating analytical self-similar and traveling-wave solutions of the Madelung equations obtained from the Schrodinger equation. A chapter which puts forth a novel paradigm of infinite dimensional quantum phase space extension of the Schrodinger equation. A chapter which discusses a metaplectic Bohmian formalism from classical (Hamiltons equations) to quantum physics (Schrodingers equation): the Metatron. The book is written in a lucid style, nicely marrying physical intuition with mathematical insight. As such, it should be of interest to workers in Schrodinger theory and related areas, and generally, to those who seek a deeper understanding of some of the linear and nonlinear perspectives of the Schrodinger equation.
Описание: The Lived Ancient Religion project has radically changed perspectives on ancient religions and their supposedly personal or public character. This volume applies and further develops these methodological tools, new perspectives and new questions. The religious transformations of the Roman Imperial period appear in new light and more nuances by comparative confrontation and the integration of many disciplines. The contributions are written by specialists from a variety of disciplinary contexts (Jewish Studies, Theology, Classics, Early Christian Studies) dealing with the history of religion of the Mediterranean, West-Asian, and European area from the (late) Hellenistic period to the (early) Middle Ages and shaped by their intensive exchange. From the point of view of their respective fields of research, the contributors engage with discourses on agency, embodiment, appropriation and experience. They present innovative research in four fields also of theoretical debate, which are “Experiencing the Religious”, “Switching the Code”, „A Thing Called Body“ and “Commemorating the Moment”.

Описание:
In the months before silent film icon Rudolph Valentino's death, he began a collaboration with Spanish journalist, Baltasar Fern ndez Cu . That collaboration was this book. Valentino lamented the glut of fictionalization about his life story and asked Cu to assist him in writing his true autobiography.
During the spring of 1926, Baltasar Fern ndez Cu became a familiar member of Valentino's entourage as he was granted extraordinary access to the star's private life and professional activities. He lunched in Valentino's United Artists' bungalow and visited the location filming of The Son of the Sheik. Cu was a frequent guest in Valentino's home in Los Angeles, Falcon Lair and befriended Valentino's last love interest, Pola Negri and his only brother, Alberto Guglielmi Valentino.
Before Valentino left on his fateful trip to New York City, he gave Cu various personal letters and documents for reference and assured him he would return within three weeks to write his autobiography. Valentino would die soon after in New York City, leaving Cu determined to fulfill his great friend's wish. With the assistance of Pola Negri and Valentino's friend Douglas Gerrard and with the endorsement of Alberto Guglielmi Valentino, Cu wrote The True Rudolph Valentino.
With his main source no longer available, Cu would construct the book from his eye-witness accounts and his experience with Valentino and his inner circle. Lamentably, he would rely on a few of the studio-generated myths Valentino hoped to dispel. Cu published his work in the Spanish language fan magazine Cine-Mundial as a ten installment series, from May 1927 to February of 1928.
Cu recounts detailed scenarios of Valentino's daily, professional and private life and includes correspondence between Valentino and Natacha Rambova and Douglas Gerrard. He grants fresh insight into these fascinating screen personalities and the tumultuous time prior to Valentino's death.
Renato Floris' translation presents this historically valuable book for the first time to an English-speaking audience. Floris conducted a meticulous research of Cu 's quizzical phraseology and worked with the assistance and analysis of many generous individuals in England, Argentina, Spain, Chile, Italy and the US.
The True Rudolph Valentino is a full-color publication which includes reproductions of the original Cine-Mundial installment illustrations.
