David Bowie’s urban landscapes and nightscapes: A reading of the Bowiean text 1 David Bowie’s urban landscapes and nightscapes: A reading of the Bowiean text Jean Du Verger “The Word is devided into units which be all in one piece and should be so taken, but the pieces can be had in any order being tied up back and forth, in and out fore and aft like an innaresting sex arrangement. This book spill off the page in all directions, kaleidoscope of vistas, medley of tunes and street noises […]” William Burroughs, The Naked Lunch, 1959. Introduction 1 The urban landscape occupies a specific position in Bowie’s works. His lyrics are fraught with references to “city landscape[s]”5 and urban nightscapes. The metropolis provides not only the object of a diegetic and spectatorial gaze but it also enables the author to further a discourse on his own inner fragmented self as the nexus, lyrics— music—city, offers an extremely rich avenue for investigating and addressing key issues such as alienation, loneliness, nostalgia and death in a postmodern cultural context.

  • Sacrament of Matrimony
    Sacrament of Matrimony Couple’s Preparation Guide Congratulations on Your Upcoming Marriage! Our parish family offers this booklet to help you prepare the liturgy for the upcoming celebration of the Sacrament of Matrimony. In these pages you will find specific directions in terms of choosing from the various prayer options and readings available for the celebration of the sacrament. Simply go to the section that applies to you, e.g., Celebrating the Sacrament outside of Mass (pages 3) or Celebrating the Sacrament within Mass (pages 5). From there you’ll be guided to the appropriate choices. When you meet with the priest/deacon, review your choices with him so he can prepare his part of the celebration. Our hope is that you will use this time of preparation to deepen your relationship with God and with one another. We know that preparing for a wedding involves a great many details which can easily overwhelm and/or preoccupy engaged couples. It’s so easy to get caught up in the planning of the secular aspects of the wedding day: invitations, photos, reception, flowers, etc. While these things are good and enjoyable, they can easily detract from the beauty of the wedding celebration itself. Therefore, our prayer for you is that you will have the courage to be different and will avoid getting swallowed up by society’s demand of consumption and empty appearances. What is important is the love you share, strengthened and sanctified by God’s grace working in you. Don’t be afraid to opt for a more modest and simple celebration in which your love for one another and God’s love for you take precedence over everything else.

  • THE MERRY WIDOW Music by Franz Lehar English Dialogue by Gershom Clark Morningstar Lyrics by Adrian Ross and Ronald Orenstein
    THE MERRY WIDOW Music by Franz Lehar English Dialogue by Gershom Clark Morningstar Lyrics by Adrian Ross and Ronald Orenstein FEATURES OF THIS SHOW The Merry Widow was a major hit in the United States, two years after it opened in Vienna. It boasted an English translation by Adrian Ross, a major lyricist in England. Although other librettos have been written for it since, Ross’s lyrics hold up very well, when modified for modern audiences. They convey the language that marks the period that is so important for the style of the show. Gershom Morningstar was commissioned by the Guild to rework the dialog, which was the show's weakest feature. New elements were added for plot depth and to increase the humor Obviously a star vehicle for a soprano as the Widow, the tenor De Rosillon and the soprano Valencienne have glorious duet material. The role of Danilo is one of the few chances for a baritone to be the romantic lead. The character moving the plot is Baron Zeta, who may be primarily an actor, as he sings little. There are good opportunities for supporting characters as well. CAST REQUIREMENTS Widow Hanna Glavari, soprano Marquis Cascada, baritone Count Danilo Danilovitch, baritone M. St. Brioche, a dandy, tenor Baron Mirko Zeta, actor General Cromov, actor, chorus Betush, his secretary, male or female actor Olga, his wife, actor, chorus Valencienne, his wife, soprano General Bogdanovitch, actor, chorus Camille, her lover, tenor Sylvaine, his wife, actor, chorus Zozo, the lead grisette, mezzo-soprano Praskovia Pritschitz, actor, chorus Six Grizettes, dancers Folk dancers, act 2 Chorus of embassy officials and their wives MUSICAL NUMBERS Overture........................................................................................

  • A Reading from Song of Songs
    A reading from Song of Songs (Pause) My lover speaks and says to me, “Arise, my friend, my beautiful one, and come! For see, the winter is past, the rains are over and gone. The flowers appear on the earth, the time of pruning the vines has come, and the song of the turtledove is heard in our land. The fig tree puts forth its figs, and the vines, in bloom, give forth fragrance. Arise, my friend, my beautiful one, and come! (Pause) The word of the Lord 2:10‐13 A reading from the Book of Genesis (PAUSE) Then God said: “Let us make man in our image, after our likeness. Let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, the birds of the air, and the cattle, and over all the wild animals and all the creatures that crawl on the ground.” God created man in his image; in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them. God blessed them, saying: “Be fertile and multiply; fill the earth and subdue it. Have dominion over the fish of the sea, the birds of the air, and all the living things that move on the earth.” God looked at everything he had made, and he found it very good. (PAUSE) The word of the Lord A reading from the Book of Proverbs (PAUSE) When one finds a worthy wife, her value is far beyond pearls.

  • Vagabond Songs and Ballads of Scotland
    SECOND SERIES Vagabond Songs and Ballads of Scotland With Many Old and Familiar Melodies Edited^ with Notes, By ROBERT FORD ALEXANDER GARDNER Publisher to Her Majesty the Queen PAISLEY; and PATERNOSTER SQUARE, LONDON 1901 — PREFACE, The Preface to the first series of this work might very well be allowed to stand as the Preface to the second also, were it not that some may see the one volume who have not seen the other, and that I feel it my duty to thank in this place the numerous correspondents all over the country who have helped so freely, albeit, now and again, at the cost of much personal trouble, to render the collection as represen- tative and efficient as I hope my never unkind critics will acknowledge it to be. Here again, as in the preceding volume, issued exactly two years ago, will be found not less than half-a-hundred blads of lyric verse, which, though familiar in every country bothy, in every country cottage, and regularly sung at markets and fairs all over Scotland from thirty to sixty years ago, and learned in part many of them from hearsay by persons still " to the fore," have yet seldom appeared in print, but till now have been ignored by, or have escaped the vigilance of, the song-collectors. These Vagabond Pieces—^poor as poetry often admittedly I esteem of no small value. As a species of folk-lore, even the rudest of them are eminently deserving of rescue. Some ; vi. Preface. are dear to us as " sangs our mithers sang.'" All for one reason or another—^but chiefly for the joy they have given to Scottish rural life—are particularly interesting.

  • The Time Traveler's Wife
    When Henry meets Clare, he is twenty-eight and she is twenty. He is a hip librarian; she is a beautiful art student. Henry has never met Clare before; Clare has known Henry since she was six... “A powerfully original love story. BOTTOM LINE: Amazing trip.” —PEOPLE “To those who say there are no new love stories, I heartily recommend The Time Traveler’s Wife, an enchanting novel, which is beautifully crafted and as dazzlingly imaginative as it is dizzyingly romantic.” —SCOTT TUROW AUDREY NIFFENEGGER’S innovative debut, The Time Traveler’s Wife, is the story, of Clare, a beautiful art student, and Henry, an adventuresome librarian, who have known each other since Clare was six and Henry was thirty-six, and were married when Clare was twenty-three and Henry thirty-one. Impossible but true, because Henry is one of the first people diagnosed with Chrono-Displacement Disorder: periodically his genetic clock resets and he finds himself misplaced in time, pulled to moments of emotional gravity from his life, past and future. His disappearances are spontaneous, his experiences unpredictable, alternately harrowing and amusing. The Time Traveler’s Wife depicts the effects of time travel on Henry and Clare’s marriage and their passionate love for each other, as the story unfolds from both points of view. Clare and Henry attempt to live normal lives, pursuing familiar goals— steady jobs, good friends, children of their own. All of this is threatened by something they can neither prevent nor control, making their story intensely moving and entirely unforgettable. THE TIME TRAVELER’S WIFE a novel by Audrey Niffenegger Clock time is our bank manager, tax collector, police inspector; this inner time is our wife.

  • Marriage Guidelines
    St. Lawrence Martyr Catholic Church Marriage Guidelines 1940 South Prospect Avenue Redondo Beach, CA 90277 (310) 540-0329 www.stlm.org Page 1 of 22 The Wedding of Mary & Joseph; Giotto ca. 1305 Dear Engaged Couple, Congratulations! The St. Lawrence Martyr Catholic Church faith- community rejoices with you and welcomes you to this Sacrament of Marriage in the spirit of Jesus who said: This is my commandment: love one another as I love you. No one has greater love than this, to lay down one’s life for one’s friends. (John 15:12-13) To enter into this irrevocable and indissoluble bond, your preparation for the Sacrament is something that we take quite seriously. “A wedding is a day, a marriage is a lifetime.” Your wedding day will hold many wonderful memories as the years unfold, but marriage is an evolving lifelong experience. Your preparation for this is of uppermost importance to us, the Church that desires to support you. We know that planning a wedding is both exciting and stressful. Couples getting married in the Catholic Church know that their wedding day is much more than getting the right flowers or venue, but those practical details can get in the way of a focus on the couple’s faith and trust in God’s love in the Sacrament. If you’ve had your wedding planned since the fourth grade – or if you’re at a loss for where to start – this information will help answer questions you have about your Catholic wedding, and give you practical ways to keep God, your faith, and love at the center of the big day.
