Pendulum Royh "Startling insights and perspectives for anyone who wants to be successful now or in the future." - Tony Hsieh, New York limes b<."Slsclling au1hor of Otli\wing H11ppincu and CEO of Z.ppos.com PENDULUM ROYH. WILLIAMS & MICHAELR. DREW How PAST GENERATIONS SHAPE OUR PRESENT AND PREDICT OUR FUTURE Praise for Pendulum “How do you predict what kind of society we’re in? How do you know when’s the right time to make a difference? In Pendulum, Roy H. Williams and Michael R. Drew have combed through history’s ups and downs and the cultural shifts that ripple through every generation. They’ve written a unique guidebook that has an interest- ing perspective for marketers, entrepreneurs, and anyone who is thinking about how to live in the now—and in the future.” —Tony Hsieh, New York Times Best-selling Author of Delivering Happiness, and CEO of Zappos.com “The Pendulum offers fascinating insights into the sur- prises and revelations of shifting social trends throughout 3/505 history. Roy H. Williams and Michael R. Drew answer the age-old question: What makes us tick?” —Harvey Mackay, Author of the #1 New York Times Best Seller, Swim With The Sharks Without Being Eaten Alive How about the following. “Understanding how civilization shifts its mindset on a decadal level is critical to business and governance. In Pendulum, Michael R. Drew and Roy H. Williams have synthesized several thousand years of history and figured out why we’ve acted the way we do. Better yet, they’ve also given us a road map of what it means going forward. This is a great tool to understand and even predict busi- ness and social trends.” —Peter H. Diamandis, Founder and Chair- man of the X PRIZE Foundation, Executive Chairman of Singularity University, New York Times Best-selling Author of Abundance “We’re bombarded by so much information that some- times we don’t know which way is up. And when it comes to the world around us, it’s tough to see how civil- ization works. But Pendulum shows you how to take ad- vantage of cultural moods, societal shifts and generational swings—all thanks to the research that Michael R. Drew 4/505 and Roy H. Williams have done. They’ve combed through 3,000 years of history and found the key to what makes us tick. What’s more, they show how you can be- nefit from it, whether you’re a financial analyst, a market- ing whiz or a consumer who wants to understand the world a little better.” —David L. Bach, Founder of FinishRich.com and Author of The Automatic Millionaire, Smart Women Finish Rich, and many other best sellers “Of the many people with whom I’ve worked, I’ve met few as authentic and brilliant as Michael R. Drew and Roy H. Williams. Now, after reading Pendulum, I’ve come to see why people think the way they do and how they’ll think in the future. Thanks to the behavioral in- sights Pendulum showed me, I’ve discovered how the av- erage person thinks, and I’ve learned why my old ways of speaking weren’t getting through. I’ve made changes in my presentations as a speaker and comedian, and everything has changed. Once you see how Pendulum works, you can adjust to everything. If you, like me, are the type of person who needs proof of everything, you’ll find it with Pendulum.” —Kyle Cease, Voted #1 Comedian on Comedy Central for 2009 5/505 “In Pendulum, Roy H. Williams and Michael R. Drew take us through a revealing inquiry that challenges our as- sumptions about the potential of patterns in life and busi- ness. This is a thought-provoking book you will be glad you read; it stretches your thinking regardless of your generation or professional expertise. Pendulum is a powerful, out-of-the-box message that will forever shift your perspective and dramatically inform your influence. Read it before your competition does.” —Greg Link, Co-founder of CoveyLink and Co-author of Smart Trust: Creating, Prosperity, Energy, and Joy in a Low-Trust World “My thoughts about this book are swinging like a pendu- lum—from stunningly visionary to intensely practical, from wildly theoretical to staggeringly personal. Read Pendulum to find out why you became who you are today . and why you’ll become the person you’ll become to- morrow. Kudos to Williams and Drew!” —Robert G. Allen, Author of the New York Times Best Sellers, Creating Wealth, Multiple Streams of Income and The One Minute Millionaire “In today’s business environment, you need to anticipate and understand consumers as never before. You need to 6/505 drive change and create step-and-repeat processes. Roy H. Williams and Michael R. Drew nail it in Pendulum. They’ve looked in the mirror of history, and found a re- flective pattern. And while every businessperson is run- ning the gauntlet of business, they can use the book to be- come more competitive, nimble and ready to drive change and grow! Every generation thinks a bit differently than the previous one—and Pendulum tells you why. Saddle up for an insightful read, and an essential tool.” —Jeffrey Hayzlett, Former CMO Kodak, Global Business & Marketing Authority, and Best-selling Author of The Mirror Test and Running the Gauntlet “Hindsight gives you 20/20 vision. What if you had 20/20 foresight vision? What if you knew exactly what people were thinking and what they wanted to buy? Would that help you make more money? Then read Pendulum . be- fore your competition does.” —Darren Hardy, Publisher, SUCCESS magazine and New York Times Best-selling Author of The Compound Effect “If you want to better understand the world we live in, then read Pendulum. Roy H. Williams and Michael R. Drew have uncovered the secrets to how society shifts 7/505 from generation to generation—and why that matters to all of us. I’ve devoted my career to helping people experi- ence greater happiness, and this book has given me more tools that support personal breakthroughs.” —Ivan Misner, Ph.D., New York Times Best- selling Author and Founder of BNI® “In Pendulum, Roy H. Williams and Michael R. Drew show us that society rises and falls not only on the strength of its leaders, but also through the generational context in which they find themselves.” —Geoff Smart and Randy Street, New York Times Best-selling Authors of Who: The A Method for Hiring “Everyone wants to predict the future, but Michael R. Drew and Roy H. Williams have actually done it by ana- lyzing the past. Pendulum explores the generational shifts of the last 3,000 years to help us understand what’s in store for us. Using cultural milestones, historical events and even biblical stories, they show how society shifts every 40 years or so, and how marketers today can be much more effective. For anyone who wants a business to survive and grow in the next decades, it’s essential to un- derstand the swings of history. Pendulum does just that. It’s enlightening, insightful and just a little scary.” 8/505 —Marshall Goldsmith, Million-selling Author of New York Times Best Sellers MOJO and What Got You Here Won’t Get You There “Most of us want to find patterns in our lives and to glimpse into the future. Pendulum offers an innovative and creative way to do both. Societies clearly shift over time from a focus on Me to We and back again. When we recognize societal trends, we can make better business and personal choices to respond to these shifts.” —Dave Ulrich, New York Times Best-selling author of The Why of Work, Professor, Ross School of Business, University of Michigan, Partner, the RBL Group (www.rbl.net) “Reading Pendulum is like having a master class in social theory, cultural history and target marketing. Roy H. Wil- liams and Michael R. Drew have given us a blueprint for speaking to today’s consumer and tomorrow’s customer. You’ll be amazed by what you can learn from these guys, and how you can use what they’ve discovered about what makes us all tick.” —Loral Langemeier, Four-time New York Times Best-selling Author 9/505 “Roy H. Williams and Michael R. Drew have gone through almost all of western history and found out how each of us looks at the world—and how it changes over time. So much of today’s marketing doesn’t work because people don’t know why we make the decisions we do, or what appeals to us. Roy and Michael know. They dis- covered the reasons we work together at one point while at others we act on our own. And why knowing that is in- dispensable for anyone in business. I’ve told everyone about these remarkable concepts, but now you can ex- plore them yourself. Pendulum is enlightening, entertain- ing, essential reading.” —Marci Shimoff, New York Times Best-selling Author, Happy for No Reason “If you’ve ever wondered why people did what they did, why cultural change happened and even what led to some of mankind’s greatest discoveries, then Pendulum has the answers. Roy H. Williams and Michael R. Drew take you through three millennia on an astounding roller-coaster ride of shifts in society to get at the heart of why we do what we do—and how we can understand not only where we are, but where we’re going.” —Greg S. Reid, Co-author of Think and Grow Rich: Three Feet from Gold 10/505 “In business, fortunes are made from predicting and rid- ing trends in the marketplace.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 Abstract This thesis explores the transmission of information about classical inscriptions and their use in historical scholarship between 1530 and 1603. It aims to demonstrate that antiquarians' approach to one form of material non-narrative evidence for the ancient world reveals a developed sense of history, and that this approach can be seen as part of a more general interest in expanding the subject matter of history and the range of sources with which it was examined. It examines the milieu of the men who studied inscriptions, arguing that the training and intellectual networks of these men, as well as the need to secure patronage and the constraints of printing, were determining factors in the scholarship they undertook. It then considers the first collections of inscriptions that aimed at a comprehensive survey, and the systems of classification within these collections, to show that these allowed scholars to produce lists and series of features in the ancient world; the conventions used to record inscriptions and what scholars meant by an accurate transcription; and how these conclusions can influence our attitude to men who reconstructed or forged classical material in this period.

  • From the Library of Cosmo Alexander Gordon
    FROM THE LIBRARY OF COSMO ALEXANDER GORDON Lucretius De Rerum Natura 1-27 Sixteenth century 28-33 Seventeenth century 34-53 Eighteenth century 54-79 Nineteenth century 80-90 Twentieth century 91-92 BERNARD QUARITCH LTD List 2015/3 [email protected] +44 (0)20 7297 4888 Introduction by Nicolas Barker ‘Cosmo and I found our tastes and interests were always in harmony and I came to love his particular sense of humour and gentle goodness, as well as to respect his unusual style of scholarship and general culture.’ So wrote his life-long friend, Geoffrey Keynes in The Gates of Memory. All those who knew him shared the same feeling of calm and contentment, leavened by humour, in his company. Something of this radiates from this residue of a collection of books, never large but put together with a discrimination, a sense of the sum of all the properties of any book, that give it a special quality. Cosmo Alexander Gordon was born on 23 June 1886, the son of Arthur and Caroline Gordon of Ellon, Aberdeen. Ellon Castle was a modest late medieval building, with eighteenth-century additions and yew avenue, the river Ythan running by, where Cosmo fished for salmon and sea-trout. Dr Johnson stayed there in 1773 and admired the local antiquities. So did Cosmo; his taste had extended to medieval manuscripts before he left Rugby for King’s in 1904, where it was nurtured by M. R. James. Although Keynes had also been at Rugby, they did not meet until both were at Cambridge, where Gordon introduced his new friend to David’s book-stall and seventeenth-century literature; they shared a passion for Browne and Fuller.

  • 1 Las Letras De Canciones De Pop-Rock Español Como Textos Poéticos
    LAS LETRAS DE CANCIONES DE POP-ROCK ESPAÑOL COMO TEXTOS POÉTICOS: UN MODELO ALTERNATIVO DE EDUCACIÓN LITERARIA PARA E.S.O. Y BACHILLERATO Juan Gómez Capuz (Grupo Val.Es.Co. - Universitat de València I.E.S. “Sant Vicent Ferrer” – Algemesí) RESUMEN En este trabajo intentaremos diseñar un amplio modelo de análisis de textos poéticos, aplicado a las letras de canciones de pop-rock en español. Este modelo alternativo de educación literaria está especialmente dirigido a jóvenes entre 14 y 18 años, con el objeto de que sean capaces de reconocer cierto grado de elaboración poética en las canciones pop de la vida diaria. Los aspectos poéticos estudiados en este artículo, siempre aplicados a letras de pop-rock cantado en español, incluyen un amplio abanico de materias como los géneros poéticos, la intertextualidad, los tópicos literarios, la métrica, los recursos retóricos (tanto figuras de dicción como de pensamiento), así como la imitación de modelos literarios previos (la poesía del amor cortés típica de la Baja Edad Media y el Renacimiento, y la poesía surrealista propia de la “Generación del 27”). KEY WORDS: poetry, literary education, lyrics. ABSTRACT In this paper, we try to outline a comprehensive model of analysis of poetical texts applied lyrics of Spanish pop-rock songs. This alternative model of literary education is specially addressed to youngsters between 14 and 18 years old so that they could become conscious that lyrics of everyday pop songs contain a certain degree of poetical elaboration. Poetical aspects studied in this article, always applied to lyrics of Spanish pop-rock songs, include a wide range of matters such as poetical genres, intertextuality, literary commonplaces, metrics and analysis of verse, rhetorical features (both figures of speech and figures of thought) and imitation of previous literary models (courtly love poetry typical of Late Middle Ages and Renaissance and “Generación del 27” surrealistic poetry).

  • LOCATING El GRECO in LATE SIXTEENTH-CENTURY
    View metadata, citation and similarbroughtCORE papers to you at by core.ac.uk provided by Online Repository of Birkbeck Institutional Theses LOCATING El GRECO IN LATE SIXTEENTH‐CENTURY ROME: ART and LEARNING, RIVALRY and PATRONAGE Ioanna Goniotaki Department of History of Art, School of Arts Birkbeck College, University of London Submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy, July 2017 -1- Signed declaration I declare that the work presented in the thesis is my own Ioanna Goniotaki -2- ABSTRACT Much has been written about the artistic output of Domenicos Theotocopoulos during his time in Spain, but few scholars have examined his works in Venice and even fewer have looked at the years he spent in Rome. This may be in part attributed to the lack of firm documentary evidence regarding his activities there and to the small corpus of works that survive from his Italian period, many of which are furthermore controversial. The present study focuses on Domenicos’ Roman years and questions the traditional notion that he was a spiritual painter who served the principles of the Counter Reformation. To support such a view I have looked critically at the Counter Reformation, which I consider more as an amalgam of diverse and competitive institutions and less as an austere movement that strangled the freedom of artistic expression. I contend, moreover, that Domenicos’ acquaintance with Cardinal Alessandro Farnese’s librarian, Fulvio Orsini, was seminal for the artist, not only because it brought him into closer contact with Rome’s most refined circles, but principally because it helped Domenicos to assume the persona of ‘pictor doctus’, the learned artist, following the example of another of Fulvio’s friends, Pirro Ligorio.
