Boston Symphony Orchestra Concert Programs, Season 88, 1968-1969, Subscription EIGHTY-EIGHTH SEASON 1968-1969 Exquisite Sound From the palaces of ancient Egypt to the concert halls of our modern cities, the wondrous music of the harp has f compelled attention from all peoples and all countries. Through this passage of time many changes have been made in the original design. The early instruments shown in drawings on the tomb of Rameses II (1292-1225 B.C.) were richly decorated but lacked the fore-pillar. Later the "Kinner" developed by the Hebrews took the form as we know it today. The pedal harp was invented about 1720 by a Bavarian named Hochbrucker and through this ingenious device it be- came possible to play in eight major and five minor scales complete. Today the harp is an important and familiar instrument providing the "Exquisite Sound" and special effects so important to modern orchestration and arrange- ment. The certainty of change makes necessary a continuous review of your insurance protection. We welcome the opportunity of providing this service for your business or personal needs.

  • Robert Galbraith's the Cuckoo's Calling – A
    ROBERT GALBRAITH’S THE CUCKOO’S CALLING – A COMPELLING CONTEMPORARY WHODUNIT S. LAVANYA Assistant Professor of English Sri Sarada College for Women Salem (TN) INDIA Detective fiction is a genre that deals with crime, its detection, revelation of the criminals, and their motives. Detective fiction and crime fiction come under the category of popular culture. The popularity of detective fiction proves that people find it an intellectual activity to involve themselves in the stories where they also try to solve the crime. They feel a route of escape when they engage in intellectual activities like these. At the end of every detective story, the private detective presents us the real killer or culprit with substantial evidences which have escaped the notice of the ordinary eyes. Whodunit originated during the Golden Age. In “Whodunit” crime fiction the puzzle and the mystery element form the central focus. The term was coined in the 1930s. Doyle’s Holmes, Poe’s Dupin and Christie’s Poirot are the well-known detectives who are unusually observant and deductive in general. Contemporary whodunit with a credible back story is gaining widespread attention among the readers. The aim of this paper is to analyse Galbraith’s novel The Cuckoo’s Calling as a contemporary Whodunit. The Cuckoo’s Calling is a 2013 crime fiction by Robert Galbraith, the pseudonym of J.K. Rowling. It is the first novel of Cormoran Strike series and was followed by two other novels – The Silkworm (2014) and Career of Evil (2015). The novel’s opening paragraph sets the mood – mystery and thrilling.

  • English Extension I
    ENGLISH EXTENSION I Crime Genre Essay: “Genre sets a framework of conventions. How useful is it to understand texts in terms of genre? Are texts more engaging when they conform to the conventions, or when they challenge and play with conventions?” “Genres offer an important way of framing texts which assists comprehension. Genre knowledge orientates competent readers of the genre towards appropriate attitudes, assumptions and expectations about a text which are useful in making sense of it. Indeed, one way of defining genre is as a ‘set of expectations.’” (Neale, 1980) The crime fiction genre, which began during the Victorian Era, has adapted over time to fit societal expectations, changing as manner of engaging an audience. Victorian text The Manor House Mystery by J.S. Fletcher may be classified as an archetypal crime fiction text, conforming to conventions whilst The Skull beneath the Skin by P.D. James, The Real Inspector Hound by Tom Stoppard and Capote directed by Bennet Miller challenge and subvert conventions. The altering of conventions is an engaging element of modern crime fiction, and has somewhat, become a convention itself. Genre, Roland Barthes argues, is “a set of constitutive conventions and codes, altering from age to age, but shared by a kind of implicit contract between writer and reader” thus meaning it is “ultimately an abstract conception rather than something that exists empirically in the world.”(Jane Feuer, 1992) The classification of literary works is shaped – and shapes – culture, attitude and societal influence. The crime fiction genre evolved following the Industrial Revolution when anxiety grew within the expanding cities about the frequency of criminal activity.

  • The Broken Ideals of Love and Family in Film Noir
    1 Murder, Mugs, Molls, Marriage: The Broken Ideals of Love and Family in Film Noir Noir is a conversation rather than a single genre or style, though it does have a history, a complex of overlapping styles and typical plots, and more central directors and films. It is also a conversation about its more common philosophies, socio-economic and sexual concerns, and more expansively its social imaginaries. MacIntyre's three rival versions suggest the different ways noir can be studied. Tradition's approach explains better the failure of the other two, as will as their more limited successes. Something like the Thomist understanding of people pursuing perceived (but faulty) goods better explains the neo- Marxist (or other power/conflict) model and the self-construction model. Each is dependent upon the materials of an earlier tradition to advance its claims/interpretations. [Styles-studio versus on location; expressionist versus classical three-point lighting; low-key versus high lighting; whites/blacks versus grays; depth versus flat; theatrical versus pseudo-documentary; variety of felt threat levels—investigative; detective, procedural, etc.; basic trust in ability to restore safety and order versus various pictures of unopposable corruption to a more systemic nihilism; melodramatic vs. colder, more distant; dialogue—more or less wordy, more or less contrived, more or less realistic; musical score—how much it guides and dictates emotions; presence or absence of humor, sentiment, romance, healthy family life; narrator, narratival flashback; motives for criminality and violence-- socio- economic (expressed by criminal with or without irony), moral corruption (greed, desire for power), psychological pathology; cinematography—classical vs.

  • To Teach Low English Proficient Students
    Connecting Dots: Using Some of the 20th Century’s Most Significant “Whodunits” to Teach Low English Proficient Students Mario Marlon J. Ibao Fonville Middle School Here’s a brief mental exercise for the armchair detective: Connect all nine dots above using four unbroken lines. Do not lift your pen to start another line. Need clues? Try these: “Think outside the box (no intended reference to a fast food commercial),” and “the northwest is where an arrow starts to hit the mark.” Got it? If you did, you certainly have what it takes to be a detective, and if you enjoyed solving this puzzle, you probably will enjoy reading and teaching detective stories. If you are an ESL or Language Arts teacher who loves reading detective stories and is thinking of using detective stories to challenge students to go beyond the obvious, then this curriculum unit is written specifically for you. INTRODUCTION I teach at Fonville Middle School, a typical middle school in the highly urban Houston Independent School District. There are great needs here. In 2001-2002, 96% of the students were receiving a free or reduced-cost lunch. 52% were judged to be at risk of dropping out. 86% of the 1,100 students were Hispanic, 8% African-American, and 6% white. In 1998-99, only 20% of sixth graders met minimum expectations in reading, according to TAAS tests, and only 42% met minimum expectations in math. I teach Language Arts to Low English Proficient (LEP) students in this school. The needs here are even greater. About 25% of the 70 sixth and seventh grade students I teach everyday are new to the country, and this means they do not understand or speak a word of English beyond the usual “hello,” “thank you,” and “goodbye.” A significant number of this group has literacy problems in Spanish, their first language, and English, their target language.
