  • Skipping Christmas
    SSSkkkiiippppppiiinnnggg CCChhhrrriiissstttmmmaaasss ………John Grisham One The gate was packed with weary travelers, most of them standing and huddled along the walls because the meager allotment of plastic chairs had long since been taken. Every plane that came and went held at least eighty passengers, yet the gate had seats for only a few dozen. There seemed to be a thousand waiting for the 7 P.M. flight to Miami. They were bundled up and heavily laden, and after fighting the traffic and the check-in and the mobs along the concourse they were subdued, as a whole. It was the Sunday after Thanksgiving, one of the busiest days of the year for air travel, and as they jostled and got pushed farther into the gate many asked themselves, not for the first time, why, exactly, they had chosen this day to fly. The reasons were varied and irrelevant at the moment. Some tried to smile. Some tried to read, but the crush and the noise made it difficult. Others just stared at the floor and waited. Nearby a skinny black Santa Claus clanged an irksome bell and droned out holiday greetings. A small family approached, and when they saw the gate number and the mob they stopped along the edge of the concourse and began their wait. The daughter was young and pretty. Her name was Blair, and she was obviously leaving. Her parents were not. The three gazed at the crowd, and they, too, at that moment, silently asked themselves why they had picked this day to travel. The tears were over, at least most of them.

  • Puppetry Research Guide
    2012 1 The UNIMA Research Commission THE UNIMA DIRECTORY OF PUPPET THEATRE RESEARCHERS By Ida Hledíková PhD 2012 2 INTRODUCTION UNIMA Research Commission proposes you a new version of “Directory of Puppet Theatre Researchers”. Our version is in fact a continuation of work elaborated by our predecessors – members of previous Research Commissions of UNIMA. The first edition of the “Directory” was published in Warsaw in 1991. In this innovated version are published those researchers from the previous issues who answered us and it also presents the new names of researchers and theorist of puppet theatre from all over the world. This contemporary index is supplemented by new persons and includes 183 names. According to the bibliographies it is obvious, that most of them respond to our appeals. Not starred are entries of those individuals who were in personal contact with us or those the information on whom was sent by UNIMA National Centres. In an introduction of one of the previous editions the former President of Research Commission Edi Majaron wrote, that this way of publication seemed to be oldfashioned in the world of new communication technologies. On one hand he was right, but on the other hand, thanks to those “oldfashioned” Directories we could continue. In all these documents including this newest version from 2012 year are chronicled researchers and their works. When comparing the first (1991) and the last version (2012) of the Directory we can see how many people dedicated their research to writing on puppetry since then. The researchers and their works have become at the same time a part of puppetry, a part of its history.
