  • Genuneit Tarzan Vor 100 Jahren
    Jürgen Genuneit Aaaaaihaihaaaaihaihaaaaa! Vor 100 Jahren lernte Tarzan lesen und schreiben „Aaaaaihaihaaaaihaihaaaaa!“ – sicherlich haben Sie diesen Schrei gleich als den berühmten Tarzanschrei erkannt und erinnern sich zurück an die Tarzan-Comics Ihrer Jugend, an die Tarzanfilme mit Johnny Weismüller und Lex Barker oder an die Disney-Verfilmung und vielleicht an einen der 26 Tarzan- Romane des Amerikaners Edgar Rice Burroughs. Aber wie Tarzan lesen und schreiben gelernt hat, daran erinnert sich meistens kaum einer. Tarzans unglaubliche Lese- und Schreiblerngeschichte steht in dem ersten Band der Romanserie „Tarzan bei den Affen", der vor genau hundert Jahren im September/Oktober 1912 zum ersten Mal erschienen ist. Tarzan war bekanntlich als Säugling von den Affen geraubt und großgezogen worden. Von ihnen lernte er auch die Affensprache, die lediglich auf einer reduzierten mündlichen Basis bestand. Auf seinen Streifzügen durch den Dschungel entdeckt der Zehnjährige die Hütte seines Vaters und dort findet er eine Fibel. Mit Hilfe der Bilder und der Bildunterschriften, deren Buchstaben er zunächst für „eine seltene Art Käfer" hält, bringt er sich selbst das Lesen bei, was ihm bei denjenigen Abbildungen, die er aus der Dschungelwelt kennt, leichter gelingt als bei „Eisenbahn" oder „Schiff" – eine wichtige Bestätigung des in der Erwachsenenalphabetisierung angewandten Spracherfahrungsansatzes, der die Alltagserfahrung des Lernenden zum Ausgangspunkt des Lese- und Schreiblernprozesses macht. Insgesamt braucht Tarzan fünf, in der Comic- Version

  • Lie of the Jungle: the Trut
    Lie of the Jungle: The Truth About Cheeta the Chimpanzee http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2008/11/25/A... Lie of the Jungle He had the chance to write the biography of Cheeta, known as the world's oldest and most famous chimp. But his research led him into serious monkey business. By R.D. Rosen Sunday, December 7, 2008; W14 In the fall of 2007, I had been working for several months on a proposal for the authorized biography of Cheeta, Johnny Weissmuller's sidekick in MGM's Tarzan movies of the 1930s and '40s. Against all odds, Cheeta was still alive at the age of 75, 20 years older than a captive chimp's normal life span. When the agent for Cheeta and his owner, Dan Westfall, had first approached me about writing the biography, I was astonished that a fixture of not just my own childhood, but my parents', as well, one of the most celebrated animals in movie history, was retired in Palm Springs, Calif., selling his paintings for $135 donations to thousands of far-flung admirers. His birthday parties were now covered by national, and even international, media. At Cheeta's 75th birthday party, his owner, who runs a non-profit primate sanctuary, had played a video of Jane Goodall attempting to sing "Happy Birthday" to him in the pant-hooting language of the wild chimps she had first observed in Tanzania in the early 1960s. Could there be higher tribute to a chimp than that? I was too absorbed in the many fascinating aspects of my research -- the history of men and their captive chimps, the early days of Hollywood animal training, the evolution of the Tarzan franchise, newspaper clips about Cheeta, not to mention a meeting with the fading star himself -- to indulge any incipient doubts about Cheeta's true identity.

  • Syllabus German Karl May Films This Course Is Designed for Advanced
    Syllabus German Karl May Films This course is designed for advanced students of German and fluent speakers. The language of all films and conversation is in German. Classic Karl May films produced in the 1960’s will be shown. Subtitles in German (Deutsch für Hörgeschädigte) assist those who do not understand the entire spoken dialog in order to both improve their listening comprehension and follow the action of the film. The films available for the course are: Der Schatz im Silbersee 1962 106 min Winnetou 1 1963 97 min Winneout 2 1964 91 min Unter Geiern 1964 99 min Winnetou 3 1965 89 min Der Ölprinz 1965 87 min Winnetou und das Halbblut Apanatschi 1966 87 min Winnetou and sein Freund Old Firehand 1966 91 min Old Surehand 1965 89 min Because of the length of the films several class periods will be devoted to each and class members will decide which films to watch. Time will be alloted for discussion and sharing of memories. Every boy and many girls growing up during the twentieth century in Germany and elsewhere in Europe assiduously devoured the Karl May adventure novels. Karl Friedrich May (pronounced „My“ was born February 25, 1842 and died March 30, 1912. He is one of the best selling German writers of all time, noted mainly for books set in the American Old West and similar books set in the Orient and Middle East. With the advent of the 1960’s films children and adults of all ages enjoyed Karl May in the film versions and the series soon became classics in Germany much as the Humphrey Bogart films did in the US.

    CONTACTING THE WORLDS OF EDGAR RICE BURROUGHS Actor Johnny Sheffield Dies at 79 Johnny Sheffield, best known for playing the part of “Boy” to Johnny Weissmuller’s Tarzan in three MGM and five RKO movies, suffered a fatal heart attack on 15 October at his home in Chula Vista, CA . Born in 1931, he died at age 79, the same age as Weissmuller when he passed away. Johnny’s father, British actor Reginald Sheffield, spotted an adver- tisement in The Hollywood Reporter that asked, “Do you have a Tarzan Jr. in your backyard?” Johnny, who had already acted on stage, includ- ing Broadway, was chosen, at age 7, out of more than 300 candidates for the part of the adopted son of Tarzan and Jane in 1939’s “Tarzan Finds a Son!” He would reprise the part in seven more films, ending with 1947’s “Tarzan and the Huntress,” Weissmuller’s second-to-last movie as the ape-man. While Weissmuller would go on to play “Jungle Johnny Sheffield at his table in the dealer’s Jim” in 13 features for Columbia (1948-1954), Johnny Sheffield took room during the 2000 Dum-Dum in on the starring role of “Bomba, the Jungle Boy” in 12 Monogram Grandville, MI. Pictures films from 1949 to 1955. His father then created, produced, and directed a TV pilot, “Bantu the Zebra Boy,” starring Johnny, but they could not find a sponsor. Soon after, Johnny left the film business. His father passed away in 1957, which may have had something to do with Johnny finding a new direction to his life.

Interview Date: 18th August 1988. SIDE 1, TAPE 1 Roy Fowler: You've been in this country 50 years now. Robert Beatty: More now, I came over in 1937. I went to Toronto for a year and in 1939 1 got a job understudying Ray Massey and walk on in Idiot's Delight, that ran till the end of ‘38, then I went back to Canada to visit my family for a few months, and then I came back and did Grouse in June at the Criterion right to the beginning of the war, I think we were the last play that closed in the West End. Roy Fowler: You were almost from the beginning a West End actor. Robert Beatty: I was. I regret that in some ways, I think it would have done me a lot of good to go into rep for 6 months or more. Because I always think it's a good training for people on the stage. Roy Fowler: What did RADA give you? Robert Beatty: Not a great deal, it did help me what was going on in the scene, what agents one should approach and go and see. Roy Fowler: So it was more business oriented. Robert Beatty: I think it was in some ways, perhaps I'm being unkind to the people who were there, perhaps one was subconsciously taking in the stuff when one is rehearsing stuff, doing plays, being directed by people at RADA, but I was only there about three terms I think.
