Описание:
The legendary Hollywood star blazes a fiery trail in this enthralling portrait of a brilliant actress and the movies her talent elevated to greatness
In "Dark Victory," noted film critic and biographer Ed Sikov paints the most detailed picture ever delivered of Bette Davis, the intelligent, opinionated, and unusual woman who was in the words of a close friend "one of the major events of the twentieth century." Drawing on new interviews with friends, directors, and admirers, as well as archival research and a fresh look at the films, this stylish, intimate biography depicts Davis's personal as well as professional life in a way that is both revealing and sympathetic.
With his wise and well-informed take on the production and accomplishments of such movie milestones as "Jezebel," "All About Eve," and "Now, Voyager," as well as the turbulent life and complicated personality of the actress who made them, Sikov's "Dark Victory "brings to life the two-time Academy Award winning actress's unmistakable screen style, and shows the reader how Davis's art was her own dark victory."

Описание: Michelangelo was the given name not only of the Florentine sculptor, but also of Michelangelo Merisi da Caravaggio, commonly called by reference to his hometown. In this book, author Bette Talvacchia explores the significant, but little-discussed, connection between the 'two Michelangelos.' She exposes the dynamic relationship between their work through looking at the ways in which Caravaggio creatively responded to the art of his namesake from the start of his youthful arrival in Rome. In addition, she suggests how Michelangelo's overwhelming achievement was a model that helped to drive the young Caravaggio's powerful ambition and shape his identity as an artist. With lucid and intelligent prose, this fascinating book sheds light on the similar 'artistic temperament' constructed in the biographies of each artist--glorifying their rebellious, anti-social behaviour and uncompromising artistic principles--examined both in its historical and contemporary configurations.

Описание: When children become entangled with the law, their lives can be disrupted irrevocably. When those children are underrepresented minorities, the potential for disruption is even greater. The Legacy of Racism for Children: Psychology, Law, and Public Policy examines issues that arise when minority children's lives are directly or indirectly influenced by law and public policy. Uniquely comprehensive in scope, this trailblazing volume offers cutting-edge chapters on the intersections of race/ethnicity within the context of child maltreatment, child dependency court, custody and adoption, familial incarceration, school discipline and the school-to-prison pipeline, juvenile justice, police/youth interactions, and jurors' perceptions of child and adolescent victims and defendants. The book also includes chapters focused on troubling situations that are less commonly researched, but growing in importance, including the role of race and racism in child sex trafficking and US immigration law and policy. Thus, individual chapters explore myriad ways in which law and policy shape the lives of marginalized children and adolescents - racial and ethnic minorities - who historically and presently are at heightened risk for experiencing disadvantageous consequences of law and policy. In so doing, The Legacy of Racism for Children can help social scientists to understand and work to prevent the perpetuation of racial discrimination in American laws and public policies.

Описание: FROM A USA TODAY BESTSELLING AUTHOR... BOOK 3 IN THE AWARD-WINNING WYATTSVILLE SERIESIt's 1946. The war is over. Millions of American soldiers are coming home and Benjamin Church is one of them. After four years of being away he thought things in Alabama would have changed, but they haven't. Grinder's Corner is as it's always been-a hardscrabble burp in the road. It's not much, but it's home.When Benjamin attends a harvest festival in Twin Pines, he catches sight of Delia. Before their first dance ends, he knows for certain she's the one. They fall madly in love; happily, impatiently, imprudently, in love. It doesn't matter that her daddy is staunchly opposed to the thought of his daughter marrying a cotton farmer, never mind a poor one. It's true Benjamin has little to offer; he's a sharecropper who will spend his whole life sweating and slaving to do little more than put food on the table. But that's how things are in Alabama. Benjamin is better off than most; he has a wife, a boy he adores, and a house that doesn't leak rain. Yes, Benjamin considers himself a lucky man until the fateful night that changes everything.

Описание: Whitney Stine, author of the bestseller on Davis's film career, Mother Goddam, has created the ultimate Bette Davis book. Told in her own words, I'd Love to Kiss You... is a priceless collection of conversations and photographs gathered over the course of the actress and author's nearly twenty-year friendship. After meeting in 1972, Whitney Stine and Bette Davis developed a friendship that flourished into Whitney recording the uninhibited conversations the duo had over the years about Bette's co-stars, lovers, husbands, and career. As the female president of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, the first woman to receive the Lifetime Achievement Award from the American Film Institute, and more than 100 acting credits over her 50-year career, Bette shares an abundance of wisdom and humor in this tell-all about her life as a critically acclaimed actress. Illustrated with exclusive photographs and told in with utter candor about her tempestuous affairs--with Howard Hughes, William Wyler, and George Brent among them--as well as opinions on friends, family, and colleagues, such as Audrey Hepburn and Helen Hayes, this retelling of Bette's fabulous stories and tantalizing experiences is a passionate account, right from her heart, of her unforgettable career and life.
