Brel Vol. 1 (Master Serie)

Jacques Brel achieved fame through his performances in France, but he was born in Belgium and identified himself strongly with his linguistically divided native land. His acidly humorous lyrics target the hypocrisies of groups as well as individuals, with special attention to Belgium's Flemish population, the military, and the bourgeoisie in general. At the same time, some of Brel's most affecting songs contain passages in Flemish, and many of his lyrics show a pronounced fondness for his "flat country." Brel's irreverent approach to life was sharply reflected in his music and films and can be compared to that of Bob Dylan in the U.S. and Vladimir Vysotsky in Russia, with whom he also shared a capacity for tongue-twisting patter not heard since the early days of Danny Kaye.

Westernness: A Meditation (Under the Sign of Nature)
Editorial Reviews
Robert Pinksy
"Alan Williamson is a contemporary American master at illustrating the aura of place."
Book Description
A first-person meditation on the literary and visual arts of the American West, Westernness: A Meditation explores how this region has developed its own distinct culture, in literature and painting, from the point of view of someone who has been, at different times in his life, both a westerner and an easterner. An engaging and astute reader and observer, Alan Williamson uses his poetic lens to examine the new connections, notably with the Far East, that have been forged in the West, but also the fear, anxiety, and sense of cultural vacancy that western artists have had to overcome in confronting their new landscape, much as the writers of the American Renaissance did a century earlier.
Writing as a displaced easterner with significant western roots, Williamson looks at writers and poets such as Cather, Lawrence, Steinbeck, Jefferes, Silko, and Snyder, as well as artists such as the Yosemite painters, Georgia O'Keeffe, and Wayne Thiebaud, to show how, despite the inflated optimism of many western patriots, the work of these individuals relates to the anxieties suffered by their eastern predecessors. By revealing what he sees as the repetition of the evolution of American literature in the rise of western literature, Williamson provides us with a fresh vantage point from which we can appreciate western literature, art, and culture and simultaneously dismantle the literary war between East and West. A tribute to the author's lifelong engagement with a particular landscape and its writers, Westernness speaks to the general reader who is curious about his or her native place and relationship to it, as well as to scholars in literary and ecocritical studies.

Book Description
This book is about everything that happens while youre reading, in front of your eyes and inside your head; and about what type designers, typographers and graphic designers bring to a page to make reading happen.Two examples of tantalizing questions will be answered: How is it possible to read without seeing any letters? How much hidden typographic knowledge does the average reader possess? Other subjects covered in this book include: legibility; the philosophy of typographic layout; invisible typography; pattern recognition; the reading process; engrams; the ergonomics of letterforms; letterform familiarity and use; typeface choice; type design; negative space and illusions; the role of the serif; the universe of signs; typography & language, and more. Gerard Unger is a prominent typeface designer, graphic designer, author, and design educator. He is based in Bussum, The Netherlands.

J. Birkin Was S. Gainsbourg's Wife and his Favorite Muse. Check Out this Compilation of the Most Romantic Songs He Wrote for Her.Customer Reviews:
Early 70s French vocal pop.......2003-12-21
The opening number Quoi was the theme of the TV series Cinecitta and the breathy English song Yesterday Yes A Day comes from the soundtrack of the film Madame Claude. In the song Ex Fan Des Sixties, Birkin lists her favorite pop stars, including The Birds, The Doors and Jim Morrison, The Moody Blues, The Animals, the individual Beatles, Brian Jones, Jimi Hendrix, Elvis, Otis Redding, Janis Joplin and T. Rex.
Je Taime is of course a gem and none of the other attempts at eroticism equals its timeless appeal. My favorites include the tuneful numbers La Décadanse, Mon Amour Baiser, Fuir Le Bonheur and Ballade De Johnny-Jane. Those who like late sixties and early seventies vocal pop like Mary Hopkin, Françoise Hardy and the early, folky Marianne Faithfull will enjoy the work of Jane Birkin.
With the exception of those I have mentioned, most songs unfortunately lack catchy tunes, rendering them less than memorable. But this album is still a pleasant listening experience and it is great to finally hear some of the other work of the moaning singer of Je T'Aime!

Word 2000 for Windows for Dummies
Editorial Reviews If you are an experienced Word user, Word 2000's new features, which are few for the average user, will not require relearning the software. Gookin has made learning the basics of Word 2000 easy and fun for those who do not know the product well or are new to Word. As with all Dummies books, the irreverent style wears well and the humor makes learning enjoyable. Word 2000 first teaches you the basics of creating a document. Subsequent learning areas include formatting, creating tables, inserting figures, making a table of contents, and even mail merging using Word. While the coverage of the essentials is very good, the tips scattered throughout the book are often priceless. For instance, Gookin tells you how to alter the Office Assistant's icon or hide it completely. He also includes such useful tips as how to use an ALT-key combination to copy character formats. If you want to learn Word 2000 and have some fun doing it, Word 2000 for Windows for Dummies is the right book for you. --Rob Franklin

French 60's Easy Pop.......2004-09-28
She has a strong voice and most of this compilation shows it to good effect. On this CD are great versions of songs such as "Viens Sur La Montagne" and "Sifle, Sifle Ma Fille" , which she sings in her sexy and resonant voice. Despite what other reviewers have written, this particular CD does not contain her screamin' and cool version of "Paint It Black" by the Rolling Stones. That song can be found on "Femmes de Paris vol. 1". However if you have already had a taste of Continental 60's pop, especially the wonderful Francoise Hardy, then you will also enjoy this compilation of Marie Laforet.
The Best of Laforet.......2001-11-06
I bought her on CD when she first became available here, and I've enjoyed the CD many times since. Of course, Que Calor La Vida is terrific fun, but then so is her version of 'Paint It Black'. There's really not a bad track on here, and it can be fun to listen to even for non-French speakers when they recognize songs translated from English. For me this is light French pop of the 70's at its best. It's a shame there's not a photo of her on the sales page, as she was quite beautiful also!
