The English painter, film-maker and writer Derek Jarman (1942-1994) is mainly known for his work in the medium of film, but he always saw himself primarily as a painter. In this study of his lesser known home movies, Super 8 films and the 'cinema of small gestures' that Jarman developed out of them, Martin Frey discusses numerous Super 8 films as well as the films THE LAST OF ENGLAND, IN THE SHADOW OF THE SUN and THE ANGELIC CONVERSATION. He examines Jarman's filming techniques and way of working and also analyses influences from the fields of painting and literature, such as Allen Ginsberg, Robert Rauschenberg, David Hockney and Yves Klein. For Jarman, life and work represented an indivisible unity. Numerous autobiographical elements from his works are thus considered in this volume: his repressed childhood and adolescence in post-war England, his coming out and the liberated life of the seventies, his struggle against the unequal treatment of homosexuals during the Thatcher era, his dealing with his own HIV infection and finally his personal commitment to fighting discrimination against people who are HIV-positive or who have already developed Aids.

Описание:
A consideration of the distinction between the spatiotemporal furniture of the world (tokens) and the types of which they are instances, and an argument that types exist.
There is a widely recognized but infrequently discussed distinction between the spatiotemporal furniture of the world (tokens) and the types of which they are instances. Words come in both types and tokens--for example, there is only one word type 'the' but there are numerous tokens of it on this page--as do symphonies, bears, chess games, and many other types of things. In this book, Linda Wetzel examines the distinction between types and tokens and argues that types exist (as abstract objects, since they lack a unique spatiotemporal location). Wetzel demonstrates the ubiquity of references to (and quantifications over) types in science and ordinary language; types have to be reckoned with, and cannot simply be swept under the rug. Wetzel argues that there are such things as types by undermining the epistemological arguments against abstract objects and offering extended original arguments demonstrating the failure of nominalistic attempts to paraphrase away such references to (and quantifications over) types. She then focuses on the relation between types and their tokens, especially for words, showing for the first time that there is nothing that all tokens of a type need have in common other than being tokens of that type. Finally, she considers an often-overlooked problem for realism having to do with types occurring in other types (such as words in a sentence) and proposes an important and original solution, extending her discussion from words and expressions to other types that structurally involve other types (flags and stars and stripes; molecules and atoms; sonatas and notes).

In Epic Athletes: Simone Biles, celebrated sports journalist Dan Wetzel scores a perfect ten with this uplifting young reader's biography of gold medal gymnast Simone Biles
Featuring comic-style illustrations from Annabelle Hayford
At the 2016 Summer Olympics, Simone Biles dazzled gymnastics fans across the globe with each jaw-dropping flip, twist, and dismount. Her record-breaking performance catapulted her to the top of the sport, and she quickly became a hero to young people.
But well before Simone faced Olympic trials on the balance beam and rings, she confronted real-life challenges as a kid, as she moved in and out of foster care. With the support and love of her grandparents, plus her unwavering drive to make history on the ultimate stage in sports, she grew into an incredible role model and activist--and one of the greatest athletes of our time.
Filled with sports action and bold comic-style illustrations, this inspiring biography recounts the incredible life of a world class gymnast.
