Stuart Chases’s Use Of Jules Verne’s The Mysterious Island, (1874) December 2006 Richard Vangermeersch P.O. Box 338 Kingston, RI 02881 401-783-8853 2 Stuart Chases’s Use Of Jules Verne’s The Mysterious Island, (1874) There are two very specific reasons why this piece was researched and written. The first is a continuation of my work done on Stuart Chase (various publications). I am still hopeful my efforts will inspire an historian to do a 1000 page biography on Stuart Chase. The second is further example why my idea of using Verne’s book as the basis for a one-day management seminar is worth trying. I’ve explored this idea with a number of friends and hope that this piece will take at least one of them to try this idea. I am classifying this as a casual piece and have no interest in this being written for a vigorous academic review. -

Demand the Impossible Ss18
BARN OF MONKEYS PRESENTS demand the impossible ss18 Here at the barn, we are moved by the drive of discovering new things. We struggle to reach for the impossible and to find who else shares our hunger for the unreachable! Demand the Impossible is a throwback from one of Jules Verne’s most celebrated novels – Around the World in 80 Days – one of his many stories from les Voyages Extraordinaires. The storyline is about Phileas Fogg, a rich English man living in London, who engaged in a journey around the globe in order to win a wager of £20.000 from his fellow members of the Reform Club. Sophisticated and minimalistic, Demand the Impossible focuses on three primary stages: the first while flying, the second while sailing and a third while travelling on ground. The collection shares this itinerary, using a carefully thought palette of colors inspired on each stage of the journey: earth, sea and air. As we travel across the sky and seas, we stumble upon the immensity of tones of blue that, at the end of the day, set on a beautiful palette of rose and yellow. Orange, yellowish green and earthy tones, blend together to create harmony out of an exciting and a sophisticated collection. And just like Man seems to have a special ability to adapt to new environments while travelling, some of Demand the Impossible’s key items are versatile to the point of flattering both genders. After several brainstorms, the monkeys decided it would be best to develop a kind of neutral design in which both boys and girls would feel comfortable and attuned, without overlooking a few girlish and boyish designs as well. -
Le Tour Du Monde En Quatre-Vingts Jours
Séquence CLASSES DE CINQUIÈME ET QUATRIÈME Le tour du monde en quatre-vingts jours Séquence réalisée par Marie-Ange Spire, professeure de lettres au collège Jules Verne Charcot de Fresnes (94). Introduction : l’intérêt pédagogique La lecture de ce grand classique de la littérature française, Le tour du monde en quatre-vingts jours de Jules Verne, offre dans le cadre des programmes officiels l’occasion d’étudier en classe de 5e un récit de voyage fictif. Le défi d’un gentleman britannique, Phileas Fogg, et de son domestique français Passepartout poursuivis par le détective Fix, constitue un des prétextes pour parcourir un monde en pleine mutation au XIXe siècle. En classe de 4e, on pourra également s’intéresser aux liens qu’entretiennent la réalité et la fiction dans l’univers de Jules Verne. L’aventure devient le lieu de la réflexion philosophique : quelle est la place de l’être humain dans un monde bouleversé par le progrès scientifique et technologique ? Cette séquence est conçue pour que l’élève s’approprie cette œuvre au cœur d’une époque marquée par l’effet de l’accélération du temps sur la représentation du monde. Des activités de lecture, d’écriture et de recherches documentaires s’attacheront à mettre en valeur la modernité de ce questionnement universel tout en analysant les mécanismes du roman d’aventures.

Phileas Fogg went to the Preform Club every day. He left his house at 7 Savile Row at 11.30 in the morning and walked to the club. He had his lunch and his dinner there. He read the papers at the club, and he played cards. He left late in the evening and walked back to Savile Row. He went to bed at midnight. Phileas Fogg was a cold man. He didn't talk much, and nobody knew much about him. But everything in his life had to be right. His washing water had to be at 31°C — not 30°C and not 32°C. At 9.37 on the morning of 2nd October 1872 his servant, James Forster, brought him water at 30°C, not 31°C. So this servant had to go. Phileas Fogg sat at home in his Savile Row house. He waited for his new servant. The new servant came. He was about thirty years old. -
SYNOPSIS Captain Cyrus Smith (Kyle Maclachlan) Is an Engineer
SYNOPSIS Captain Cyrus Smith (Kyle MacLachlan) is an engineer and Union officer whose restless spirit resists imprisonment in a Confederate camp during the Civil War siege of Richmond, Virginia. When Cyrus devises an ingenious plan to free himself and a close friend, Neb (Omar Gooding), his efforts are immediately complicated by the addition of several more escapees, including devious Southerner Pencroff (Jason Durr), beautiful nurse Jane Spillet (Gabrielle Anwar) and Jane’s strong-willed teenage daughter Helen (Danielle Calvert). Swept to sea by a perilous storm, the escapees crash-land on a lost tropical isle full of dangerous secrets, including terrifying mutations of the local wildlife. Salvation comes in the form of Captain Nemo (Patrick Stewart), the troubled hero of Jules Verne’s 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea, who has built a fortress on the island and claimed it as his scientific playground. When Nemo learns of Cyrus’ engineering background, he tries to enlist Cyrus in his ultimate project: a doomsday weapon that Nemo believes will end all war forever. After Cyrus doubts Nemo and his weapon, the castaways are thrown out, left to fend for themselves against the wrath of Mother Nature betrayed. And when a band of bloodthirsty pirates arrive hunting for another of the island’s secrets, Cyrus and the castaways face an even greater threat: the worst elements of mankind. Will the escapees betray their ideals and ask Nemo for help? And will Nemo unleash the power of his terrible weapon or overcome his personal demons to aid the struggling castaways? -- HALLMARK CHANNEL -- . -
Los Cuentos De Mi Infancia
ESCUELA POLITECNICA DEL EJÉRCITO DEPARTAMENTO DE CIENCIAS HUMANAS Y SOCIALES ENSAYO LOS CUENTOS DE MI INFANCIA (METODOLOGÍA PARA ESCRIBIR UN CUENTO O GENERAR UNA OBRA DE ARTE) DR. CARLOS ARGÜELLO 2012 INTRODUCCIÓN En las siguientes páginas de este ensayo, estimado lector, Ud. disfrutará de un retorno a su infancia, tanto en tiempo como en imaginación, en el viaje se cruzaran imágenes que fueron de la vida cotidiana entre los 12 y 15 años. Los retratos de los amigos y compañeros de infancia y pre adolescencia se apresuran por salir a flote, creando una confusión de cuello de botella, van saliendo los recuerdos uno tras de otro y las aventuras son tantas, que en forma inconsciente, las emociones galopan a velocidades increíbles dejando una huella con sabor a nostalgia y sorpresa. En fin, cada porción de sus memorias cobran vida y surge la figura de cada persona que no ha visto por 20 años o más. Sin contar con los amigos imaginarios y otras fantasías de la pre adolescencia. Inclusive vienen imágenes sonoras y diálogos de infidencias, y el robo del beso a su mejor amiga, la larga caminata para llegar al rio o la cima de la montaña para ver volar a las aves, como también, ir al huerto y oír como es el mugido de una vaca o el relincho del caballo, entre otros lenguajes de la bucólica vida de una ciudad de Ecuador, entre las décadas del 1950 hasta 1965. El interés es revivir etapas de la vida que crecieron y se desarrollaron sin los conflictos sociales de hoy día. -

In their introduction to this recent collection of essays on Verne, the editors make the observation that few authors of world literature were as deeply immersed in the media culture of their time as Jules Verne. They may be right. During his writing career Verne leaned heavily on newspapers, popular magazines, and scientific journals both for plot ideas and technical documentation for the 50+ novels of his Voyages Extraordinaires.
