Автор: Marianne Faithfull

This book is a more personal history than has ever before been written by or about Marianne Faithfull. Anecdotal, conversational, intimate and revealing, this is her no-holds-barred account of her life, her friends, her triumphs and mistakes.A decade after the publication of ‘Faithfull’, one of the most acclaimed rock autobiographies of all time, Marianne Faithfull is back, vowing periodically leave her wicked ways behind and grow up, but finding that somehow strange things keep happening.A wry observer of her slightly off-kilter world, Marianne muses nostalgically about afternoons languishing on Moroccan cushions at George and Pattie's, getting high and listening to new songs. She fondly recalls the outlandish antics of her Beat friends Allen Ginsberg and William Burroughs; is frequently baffled at her image in the press (opening the paper to read of her own demise: 'Sixties Star in Death Plunge'); terrified by the curse sent by Kenneth Anger; mortified by her history of reckless behaviour; not to mention her near-death experience in Singapore while looking for an opium den.Marianne peoples her anecdotal memoir with legendary characters one can imagine only Marianne assembling around her, both the eccentric and the beautiful, from Henrietta Moraes and Donatella Versace to Sofia Coppola, Juliette Greco, and Yves St. Laurent's dog. Here is Marianne on the dark side of the sixties and the bright side of the nineties, which saw her collaborating with the likes of Blur and Jarvis Cocker; compelling recollections of an unconventional childhood in her father's orgiastic literary commune to a hilariously decadent few days at Lady Caroline Blackwood's deathbed. Here she is her blossoming movie career, on her records as subliminal autobiography. This is as intimate a portrait as we've ever had of Marianne, as she meditates on sex and drugs, confronts her alter-ego, the Fabulous Beast, and faces her own mortality in her battle with breast cancer.Since her last book Marianne has, in her own words, 'made quite a few records, gone on many tours, tried to play it straight, and… Well, the rest is the subject of this book.'

Johann Gottfried Schadow (1764–1850), Sch?pfer der Quadriga auf dem Brandenburger Tor und vieler anderer Meisterwerke, gilt als der bedeutendste Bildhauer des deutschen Klassizismus. Der Direktor der Berliner Akademie der K?nste war auch ein genialer Zeichner, Grafiker und Karikaturist. Wenn er von sich sprach oder schrieb, tat er das gern in der dritten Person («er», «der K?nstler»), so als n?here er sich seinem eigenen Ich, um zu sich selbst zu finden. Auch in seinen Kunstwerken hat er sich behutsam «von au?en», ?ber das Handwerk, dem eigentlichen Wesen angen?hert, um dieses dann so sensibel wie m?glich her- auszuarbeiten. Unter dem «menschlichen Ma?» antiker Lehren und klassischer Proportionen verstand er immer auch die Aufforderung, es zum Leben zu erwecken. Ein Kunstwerk war f?r ihn erst vollendet, wenn er glaubte, den menschlichen Ausdruck getroffen und die Seele entdeckt zu haben. Das galt auch gegen?ber den Menschen, die ihm nahestanden. Sein Anliegen war es, das Menschliche im Menschen aufzusp?ren. Es ging ihm dabei nicht nur um die bildnerischen K?nste, sondern auch um die Kunst, recht zu leben und verst?ndnisvoll miteinander umzugehen. Nicht von ungef?hr war Schadow wohl aus solchen Motiven 60 Jahre lang auch Anh?nger der sogenannten «K?niglichen Kunst» der Freimaurer, die deswegen so genannt wird, weil die Kunst recht zu leben die «edelste und vornehmste aller K?nste ist» (James Anderson: «Konstitution», London, 1723). Dieser Aspekt in Schadows Leben und Wirken wird hier erstmals n?her betrachtet.

Soprannominata ”La Voce dei Senza Voce”, Sosa emerse come leggenda e madre molto amata dell'America Latina. Con la sua voce potente e la presenza coinvolgente sul palco, la cantante folk argentina, Mercedes Sosa, era una performer di livello mondiale, la cui influenza andava ben oltre i confini della musica. Nella lista nera come una delle persone pi? pericolose per il regime in Argentina negli anni '70, divent? il punto di riferimento sotterraneo per i poveri e gli oppressi e un'icona della democrazia che combatt? i dittatori del Sud America con la sua voce. Soprannominata ”La Voce dei Senza Voce”, Sosa emerse come leggenda e madre molto amata dell'America Latina. Sebbene Mercedes Sosa fosse una degli artisti pi? conosciuti nella musica internazionale e abbia collaborato con musicisti che spaziavano da Luciano Pavarotti, Sting e Joan Baez, rimase un'eroina sconosciuta fuori dall'America Latina. Mercedes Sosa – La Leggenda, racconta il viaggio spirituale, politico e artistico della cantante ed esplora il segreto del notevole impatto di Sosa La narrazione offre un profilo psicologico che rivela come l'educazione, le circostanze politiche e le tragedie personali di Sosa abbiano dato forma alla sua vita e alla sua carriera. Mercedes Sosa ? un esempio di integrit? e solidariet? per molti che la vedono come un modello che indica la strada verso un mondo pi? empatico e compassionevole.

Oggi Christensen ? un'esperta della vita di Mercedes Sosa, riconosciuta in tutto il mondo. Recensione editoriale: Nella prima met? del libro, l'autrice racconta il viaggio spirituale, politico e artistico di Sosa. Christensen scrive al presente, il che conferisce alla narrazione un'immediatezza non solo potente e avvincente, ma aiuta a dare vita a questa straordinaria donna. La scrittura stessa ? chiara, non pretenziosa e spesso eloquente, proprio come la musica di Sosa. Ci sono momenti in cui la voce e la creativit? dell'autrice si fondono con il materiale biografico, come spesso accade nella buona scrittura storica. ? impossibile per un biografo sapere con certezza cosa sta pensando un soggetto, ad esempio, ma usando un buon metodo di ricerca insieme ad un istinto e un'empatia ben affinati, fornire questi pensieri al lettore pu? essere un'esperienza trascendente oltre che informativa. Christensen lo gestisce magnificamente e dipinge un ritratto che incorpora i colori della disperazione, del trionfo, dell'amore, della paura e di tutte le altre emozioni umane che definiscono una vita – in questo caso, la vita di una delle pi? grandi artiste rivoluzionarie contemporanee in America Latina. Questo ? un libro bellissimo e spero che ottenga l'attenzione che merita. Il fatto che l'inglese sia una seconda lingua per l'autrice ? notevole, di per s?. -Charles Musser, storico del cinema, documentarista, autore e professore di studi cinematografici e mediatici PUBLISHER: TEKTIME

The life of Michael Morpurgo OBE, as a biography, and autobiographical stories.Michael Morpurgo OBE is a national treasure. With books such as ‘Private Peaceful’, ‘Kensuke’s Kingdom’ and ‘The Wreck of the Zanzibar’ he has enchanted a whole generation of children, weaving stories for them in a way that is neither contrived nor condescending. His is a rare gift.In 2007, Michael’s novel ‘War Horse’ was adapted for the stage by the National Theatre. Five years on, it continues to play to packed audiences of all ages and has been turned into a blockbuster film by Steven Spielberg, propelling Morpurgo to household-name status.Michael’s own story is as strange and surprising as any he has written, and is shot through with the same thread of sadness found in almost all his work. How did this supremely unbookish boy who dreamed of becoming an army officer become a bestselling author and Children’s Laureate instead? What personal price has he paid for success? And why, amidst his triumphs, is he now haunted by regret?In a unique collaboration, Maggie Fergusson explores Michael Morpurgo’s life through seven biographical chapters, to which he responds with seven stories. The portrait that emerges is one of light and shade: the light very bright, the shade complex and often painful.

First published in 2004 and updated in 2006 to include his first full season with Real Madrid.Michael Owen reveals the highlights and pitfalls of being a professional footballer in his first official autobiography, which contains his personal reflections on eight years in the game, including two World Cups, two European Championships and goalscoring records for club and country.After his famous goal against Argentina in France ‘98, Michael Owen was forced to grow up almost overnight, his sudden fame propelling him to stardom to the extent that the hopes of a football nation now rest on the slender frame of this 26-year-old.In his autobiography, Owen is forthright in his views on the game: he reacts to the accusations of diving, his susceptibility to injury, and his alleged gambling addiction; he writes candidly about his career at Liverpool, from Roy Evans to Gerard Houllier, and the reasons behind him leaving the club that made him as a player; and he talks about his ambitions for the England team and his new club Newcastle.He is also opinionated about his England striking partnership with Wayne Rooney and the threat from Jermaine Defoe; his complex and at times difficult relationship with coaches such as Glenn Hoddle, Kevin Keegan and Sven-Goran Eriksson; and he has strong views on the thug culture still rife in English football.Outside of the game, he talks openly for the first time about the death threats to him and his family, his relationship with childhood sweetheart Louise Bonsall – including her serious injury from a riding accident – and their baby Gemma as well as his passion for horse racing and betting.This edition also covers Owen’s dramatic transfer to Real Madrid, the frustrations of his first season in La Liga and the reasons for his return to England.

La doctrina econ?mica de Milton Friedman (1912-2006), al mismo tiempo criticada y defendida, sigue plenamente vigente. Considerado uno de los m?s grandes economistas de su ?poca y representante se?ero de la llamada Escuela de Chicago, recibi? multitud de honores, incluido el Premio Nobel de Econom?a (1976). Su idea de mercados competitivos y libres de la intervenci?n del Estado fue la base de las pol?ticas neoliberales que se establecieron en algunos pa?ses en la d?cada de 1980, incluido Chile.Este libro re?ne un conjunto de trabajos que revisan el impacto de los aportes de Friedman en distintos ?mbitos, desde la metodolog?a de estudio en Econom?a hasta el v?nculo entre la institucionalidad pol?tica y el sistema econ?mico. Sus autores, todos connotados y reconocidos especialistas en el ?rea, entregan importantes elementos para los debates de pol?tica econ?mica y dise?o institucional que enfrentan hoy la mayor?a de los pa?ses. No tengo ninguna duda de que es lejos el mejor economista del siglo XX…… En la batalla de las ideas, las suyas en pro de la libertad y de la competencia de los mercados se han impuesto en gran parte del mundo, y desde luego en los pa?ses que han logrado progresos notables. Sergio De Castro en el Pr?logo del libro.

Anna was four years old when Fynn, then only 16 himself, found her wandering round London’s Docklands one foggy night in the 1930s. Badly neglected and abandoned by her parents, he took her home to be cared for by his own family.The impact of this extraordinary child on Fynn, his friends and the people in their neighbourhood was to be immense. Nobody who met Anna could remain the same: this intelligent, lively, precocious chatterbox had an outlook on life which completely undercut adult pretensions and illusions.Anna’s influence continues today. Anyone dipping into her thought-processes falls under the spell of her luminous innocence, wisdom and intimate relationship with ‘Mister God’.

Willy Brandts ?ltester Sohn Peter erinnert sich an seinen Vater als Politiker und Privatmann, der noch in den 1980er-Jahren eine der umstrittensten Pers?nlichkeiten in Deutschland war. Und er schreibt ?ber das «liebevolle, aber nicht ganz einfache Verh?ltnis zweier sperriger Menschen». Peter Brandt verbindet die familieninterne Sicht mit dem analytischen Blick des Historikers. So entstand zum 100. Geburtstag von Willy Brandt am 18. Dezember 2013 keine Biographie im herk?mmlichen Sinne – sondern ein Essay, der Privates und Politisches gemeinsam deutet und bislang weniger bekannte Z?ge dieser Jahrhundertgestalt mit kritischer Zuneigung herausarbeitet.
