Hrabal Bio Sample Extracts in English
THE BITTER FRUIT OF THE GARDEN OF DELIGHTS BOHUMIL HRABAL: HIS LIFE AND WORK BY MONIKA ZGUSTOVA Sample extracts in English AUTHOR'S NOTE Above all else, this book is the end result of my conversations and interviews with Bohumil Hrabal. Over the four year period which it took to prepare this text, I talked with him either at his country house in the middle of the Kersko woods, or, more frequently, in the beer halls in the Old Town of Prague. Most of the quotes and dates have therefore been taken from Hrabal himself, in person. Other quotes are taken from the Complete Works of Bohumil Hrabal in 19 Volumes. Other useful sources have been included in the bibliography at the back of the book. Apart from thanking Bohumil Hrabal, I would like to acknowledge my debt to those who have provided me with information and unpublished material which have proven especially valuable: Vera Sykorova-Marysko, Susanna Roth and Jirina and Josef Zumr; also to Josef Hirsal., Vladimír Karfík Karel Siktanc and Tomás Mazal, who I would like to add to the list for having read the text through and - thanks to their corrections and suggestions as regards both factual events and style - for having helped produce the final version of the this book; to Jirí Kolár, Jan Vladislav, George Gibian Marie and Vladimír Vodicka, Claudio Poeta, Václav Kadlec and Madla and Ludvík Vaculík for their varied and invaluable assistance in preparing this text; and to Jirina and Josef Zumr, Vera Sykorová-Marysko and Tomás Mazal for supplying me with photographs from their archive. -

Kertomus Sosialidemokraattisen Eduskuntaryhmän Toiminnasta Vuodelta 1957
Kertomukset. Liitevihko 2: Sivut 3—70 Kertomus Sosialidemokraattisen Eduskuntaryhmän toiminnasta vuodelta 1957 Yleistä Vuosi 1957 siirtyi historiaamme yksikamarisen Eduskuntamme juhlavuotena. Toukokuun 23 päivänä tuli kuluneeksi 50 vuotta siitä, kun yksikamarinen eduskunta kokoontui Suomessa ensi kerran. Kun nia-aitiossa nähtiin näille ensimmäisille valtiopäiville kokoontuneet veteraanit Oskari Tokoi; Väinö Tanner, Otto Karhi, Maiju Gebhard ja Juhani Leppälä sekä heidän lisäkseen vanhat pitkäaikaiset puhemiehet Väinö Hakkila ja Paavo Virkkunen. Erikoisesti tästä juhlasta jäi mie leen Yhdysvalloista kutsutun senaattori Tokoin puhe, missä hän her kästi tulkitsi niitä toiveita, jotka Suomen kansa asetti vastavalittuun kansaneduskuntaan, samalla kun hän osoitti tehdyn työn mittavuuden ja sen arvon, mikä kansanvaltaisella valtiojärjestelmällämme etenkin itsenäisyysaikanamme on ollut. Tämä kansaneduskuntamme juhlavuosi muodostui poliittisesti var sin rauhattomaksi. Suurimpana syynä tähän oli taloudellisen tilan teen jatkuva kiristyminen ja valtiontalouden erittäin heikko tila, mikä vaatii uusia radikaalisia toimenpiteitä. Eduskuntavaalien lähes tyminen ei suinkaan ole helpottanut tilannetta. Suurten hallituspuo lueiden, sosialidemokraattien ja maalaisliiton, yhteistyö katkesi, eikä porvarillistenkaan puolueiden kesken saatu aikaan yhteisrintamaa hallituskysymyksessä. Myös puolueiden sisällä on ilmennyt ristiriitoja entistä enemmän. Ulkopoliittisesti olemme eläneet hiljaiseloa, vaikka johtavien maail manvaltojen kesken ei olekaan päästy -
Writing the Walls 2018
When HVCCA opened in 2004, it had a broad vision to support contemporary artists and to offer insight into challenging new works and new media. That same year we also showcased emerg- ing artists from the performance, installation and technology arenas through our first Peekskill Project, placing art along public roads, in Parks and in abandoned buildings throughout the city of Peekskill. We hosted our first Art-in-Residency to Sandra Tomboloni of Florence, celebrating her creativity in a closing solo exhibition. In 2007, 11 years ago, Mara Mills came to me with the suggestion to invite poets and artists of the spoken word to offer original works that would intersect with the art works presented in the exhibitions, to model varied ways for people to relate to contemporary art, to offer the freedom of personal expression through viewing and absorbing the arts in a new and unique way. Since then 11 iterations of Writing the Walls have taken place at HVCCA, with excited participants passing from art work to art work, following the paths of the writers as they read and perform their works in front of their inspiring piece. Our appreciation goes to Mara Mills, our talented Deputy Director and mentor in the Theatre Arts, who, each year, has breathed life into this project and who deftly, guides the poets and playwrights in their readings and performances, and to JoAnn Brody who worked tirelessly to mount the works near their respective art and who made this book a reality. Livia Selmanowitz Straus, PhD Executive Director, Hudson Valley Center for Contemporary Art Writing the Walls The exhibition was called XXLarge and the works on the walls of The Hudson Valley Center for Contemporary Art were indeed enormous; large enough to be stage sets. -

Dave Cobb Episode Transcript
VOICES IN THE HALL DAVE COBB EPISODE TRANSCRIPT PETER COOPER Welcome to Voices in the Hall, presented by the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum. I’m Peter Cooper. Today’s guest, producer extraordinaire Dave Cobb. DAVE COBB When we approach these records we approach it much the way a record would’ve been done in 1965, 1970. And it’s humans playing together. There are mistakes all over the record. There’s timing issues, there’s tuning issues, there’s pitch issues, there’s flubs of words. The same way people are seeking out organically grown food, I think people are seeking out organically grown music at the same time. The moment I heard Chris Stapleton I was like, “Man I’ve got to track him down.” If I can just get to Nashville I’d run into him and I’d run into Jason Isbell and try to sucker them in to make records. I like to fly by the seat of my pants. Walk in and see what’s going to grab you that day. To me it was a really cool thing about linking really great artists that I like now, and linking Nashville, what Nashville is today. Taking kind of a snapshot of it. And I love it when I get to introduce somebody to somebody else I think is talented. And you see there eyes both sparkle. And I love the unity in the scene. That’s why I moved here.
