  • A Little Book of Eternal Wisdom
    A Little Book of Eternal Wisdom Author(s): Suso, Henry (1295-1366) Publisher: Burns, Oates, & Washbourne Ltd., London Description: ªThe Little Book of Eternal Wisdom is among the best of the writings of Blessed Henry Suso, a priest of the Order of St. Dominic, who lived a life of wonderful labours and sufferings, and died in the Fourteenth century with a reputation for sanctity which the Church has solemnly confirmed. It would be difficult to speak too highly of this little book or of its author. In soundness of teaching, sublimity of thought, clearness of expression, and beauty of illustration, we do not know of a spiritual writer that surpasses Henry Suso.ºÐfrom the introduction by C. H.

  • Translating Rubén Darío's Azul…
    Translating Rubén Darío’s Azul… A Purpose and a Method Adam Michael Karr Chesapeake, Virginia B.S. International History, United States Military Academy at West Point, 2005 A thesis presented to the Graduate Faculty of the University of Virginia in Candidacy for a Degree of Master of Arts English Department University of Virginia May, 2014 TABLE OF CONTENTS Thesis Text……….3-47 References………..48-50 Appendix A: “Stories in Prose”………51-88 Appendix B: “The Lyric Year”……….89-116 2 George Umphrey opens the preface of his 1928 edited assortment of Rubén Darío’s prose and poetry with the familiar type of panegyric that begins much of the dissemination and exegesis of Darío’s work – “No apology is needed for [this] publication…he is one of the great poets of all time.” To Umphrey it was nothing more than a quip and a convenient opening statement. Darío had passed away just 12 years earlier but his posterity was assured. The Nicaraguan modernista poet has inspired an entire academic and publishing industry in Spanish language literature that is analogous to Milton or Dickens in English.1 He has had every possible commendation lavished on his legacy, is credited with revolutionizing the Spanish language, dragging it out of two centuries of doldrums following the glorious “Golden Age” of Cervantes and Lope de Vega, and creating the ethos and the identity for an independent Spanish America that would later inspire Borges, Neruda, and García-Márquez. Umphrey had no reason to doubt that any reproduction and exploration of Darío’s work, regardless of language, would be self- justifying, but he unwittingly makes assumptions about the future of language study in universities, priorities and structure in literature departments, the publishing industry and commercial audience, and a myriad of other contextual factors that would complicate Darío’s legacy.

  • Verdi's Rigoletto
    Verdi’s Rigoletto - A discographical conspectus by Ralph Moore It is hard if not impossible, to make a representative survey of recordings of Rigoletto, given that there are 200 in the catalogue; I can only compromise by compiling a somewhat arbitrary list comprising of a selection of the best-known and those which appeal to me. For a start, there are thirty or so studio recordings in Italian; I begin with one made in 1927 and 1930, as those made earlier than that are really only for the specialist. I then consider eighteen of the studio versions made since that one. I have not reviewed minor recordings or those which in my estimation do not reach the requisite standard; I freely admit that I cannot countenance those by Sinopoli in 1984, Chailly in 1988, Rahbari in 1991 or Rizzi in 1993 for a combination of reasons, including an aversion to certain singers – for example Gruberova’s shrill squeak of a soprano and what I hear as the bleat in Bruson’s baritone and the forced wobble in Nucci’s – and the existence of a better, earlier version by the same artists (as with the Rudel recording with Milnes, Kraus and Sills caught too late) or lacklustre singing in general from artists of insufficient calibre (Rahbari and Rizzi). Nor can I endorse Dmitri Hvorostovsky’s final recording; whether it was as a result of his sad, terminal illness or the vocal decline which had already set in I cannot say, but it does the memory of him in his prime no favours and he is in any case indifferently partnered.

  • Social Studies Curriculum
    WASHINGTON WEST SUPERVISORY UNION SOCIAL STUDIES CURRICULUM Crossett Brook Middle School Fayston Elementary School Harwood Union Middle and High School Moretown Elementary School Thatcher Brook Primary School Waitsfield Elementary School Warren Elementary School October 16, 2001 August 29, 2001 Dear Reader, During the opening phases of writing this document, the committee referred to a variety of materials to begin formulating the work found within these pages. We examined the national standards, state standards, and curricula from other states and districts within Vermont. After exploring these materials, the committee began preparing the skeleton of the document. This phase of the process was long and arduous. It took years of collaboration and compromise. The Scope and Sequence that follows represents a draft that has been reviewed by the committee, the administration, WWSU educators, and experts in the field outside our supervisory union. This document was written for the purpose of informing the practitioner who will use it to guide his or her teaching in the classroom. However, the committee encourages any educator to share his or her pieces with other interested parties. The committee recognizes there might be a need to interpret the meaning of the content for the layperson. The Social Studies Curriculum will include overlying materials such as the WWSU Pre-K – 12 scope and sequence, goals and desired outcomes. Following this overlying material, each grade level includes an introduction sheet with theme(s), geography implications, community service project guidelines, questions to consider, and key concepts covered in that grade. A partial list of resources is included and will be added to at a later date.

  • Stellenbosch University Research Report 2004
    STELLENBOSCH UNIVERSITY RESEARCH REPORT 2004 Editor: Senior Director: Research Stellenbosch University Stellenbosch 7602 ISBN 0-7972-1170-5 i FOREWORD The 2004 Research Report provides a comprehensive record of the University's research outputs. In addition to this overall survey of research at the institution, perspectives are provided on the performance of individual faculties and departments. Further statistical perspectives on research output and the nature of research activities are presented in other publications of the Division of Research Development, i.e. Research @ Stellenbosch; and Perspectives of Stellenbosch University. As in the past, a variety of persons and organizations contributed to the University's research programme. Stellenbosch University wishes to express particular recognition to the statutory research councils and commissions, government departments, private enterprises, foundations and individuals for their continued support of our research. As far as research funding is concerned, researchers at South African universities are increasingly dependent upon new sources for research funding. This includes national and international opportunities alike. Stellenbosch University therefore attaches great value to regional cooperation and substantive scientific agreements with other universities local and abroad, and to bilateral research and development agreements between South Africa and other countries. Apart from the active support of research by the University's management, a variety of internal support services provide assistance to researchers. These include the library and information services, capacity building workshops, information technology, infrastructure, the maintenance of laboratories and equipment, central analytical services, and support from the administrative and financial divisions, without which it would be impossible to conduct research of this calibre. We acknowledge with appreciation the dedication and excellent contributions made by Stellenbosch University staff members to the institution's research output.
