    During the first three years of his recording career, Louis Armstrong played blues and stomps. In fact, that was what he recorded in his very first session with king Oliver in 1923. Then same rhythmical airs and other hits of that era were added. During those years his technique and musical concepts acquired such a degree of substance and affluence that he became the first jazz virtuoso. Beginning with the late 20s he added a new kind of melody to his repertoire: the “ballad”. In these interpretations another side of his talent unfolded, incorporating a whole series of standards into his jazz repertoire. Standards refer to themes taken up by all musicians. Thus, he not only demonstrated that jazz phrasing is applicable to these kinds of melodies and tempos, but he did it so well that the mood of show ballads became an integral part of every form of jazz. This is not the first time that Louis Armstrong interprets spirituals. In 1938 he recorded same versions of four pieces with the Lynn Murray choir for MCA. Shadrack, based on the traditional form of spirituals, Jonah and the Whale, Going to Shout All Over the Gods Heaven and Nobody Knows the Trouble Ive Seen. Two years later he did a version of Cain and Abel with the big band he was directing at that time. He had actually recorded Motherless Child in 1930. While the melody is identical to the second part of the Dear Old Southland interlude by Creamer and Layton, which he recorded in a duo with the near legendary pianist Buck Washington, the melody of Motherless Child is also very close to others that he used in several blues, better known in their broad versions: Steady Roll, Round the Clock, My Daddy Rock Me. So, a number of spirituals are blues at least in form.

    Dickens was born in 1812 in Portsmouth. He was the second of the eight children in the family. Although not poor by the standards of the time, the Dickens family lived through a series of financial crises. In 1823 facing a financial ruin, the family moved to London, where Charles began to work in a warehouse for six shillings a week. At that time his father was arrested for debt. Only at the age of twelve Charles was sent to school, where he did well, and at the age of fifteen he got a job in a legal firm. After learning shorthand, he became a reporter for the “Morning Chronicle” and soon wrote “Pickwick Papers”. In 1836, when “Pickwick Papers” were published, he became the most popular living novelist in England and held this position until he died. Then he published novel after novel- “Oliver Twist”, “Nickolas Nickleby”, “The Old Curiosity Shop”, “David Copperfield”, “Little Dorit” and many others. Besides constantly writing novels he was editing newspapers and magazines, giving readings from his books to huge crowds of people.

    Однако в местных газетах, особенно в период сотрудничества в них передовых деятелей горских народов и русского общества, публиковались и статьи по злободневным вопросам русской и горской действительности. В 18681871 гг. выдающуюся роль в развитии истории и этнографии горцев, в формировании горской интеллигенции играла газета «Терские ведомости», редактором которой в эти годы был демократически настроенный, талантливый журналист А.-Г. Кешев. Газета «Северный Кавказ» в 18931897 гг., когда в ней работал ответственным сотрудником К. Л. Хетагуров, стояла па прогрессивно-демократических позициях. Интересные материалы о жизни народов Северного Кавказа продолжали печататься в издававшихся в Тифлисе и Баку газетах «Кавказ», «Новое обозрение» (с 1894 г.), «Тифлисский листок» (с 1878 г.), «Каспий» (с 1880 г.) и др.

    «The Life and Strange Surprising Adventures of Robinson Crusoe was published in 1719. The book is written as a fictional autobiography of Robinson Crusoe, a sailor from York, who spent 28 years on an uninhabited island after a shipwreck. All events are recorded in a diary and create a realistic picture of the pseudo-product. Most likely, a novel written under the influence of the real stories that happened to Alexander Selkirk, who spent on an uninhabited island in the Pacific for four years.1, 1651 Robinson sailed from Gul in London. A week later, in Yarmouth Roads, swooped storm. The ship is sinking, sailors picks up the boat from a neighboring vessel. In London he met with the captain of the ship, being prepared to go to Guinea, and decides to go with him.was an unsuccessful expedition: their ship captures a Turkish corsair, and the young Robinson becomes the slave of the captain. Robinson and the boy Xury escape from the ship. On the road shoots down fugitives on the shore of livestock, even killing a lion and a leopard, loving natives provided them with food and water. Finally their picks counterclaim Portuguese ship. The captain is taken free deliver Robinson in Brazil.Brazil, he arranged and lastingly: Receive a Brazilian citizen, buying land for plantations of tobacco and sugar cane, the sweat of working on it.once again travels to illegally brought the slaves from Africa. Never before has the fate of not warned him so distinctly: he sailed on Sept. 1, 1659, that is, day to day, eight years after his escape from the parental home. In the second week of sailing ship is wrecked. Robinson is selected on the land.is one escaped, as evidenced by stranded three hats, cap, and two unpaired shoe. The first night he spends on the tree. By morning the tide had driven their vehicle close to the shore, and swam Robinson gets to him. From the spare mast, he builds a raft and ship it «all the necessities of life: food, clothing, carpentry tools, guns and pistols, shot and powder, swords, saws, an ax and a hammer. On the shore, he constructs a tent, transfers it from the sun and rain, food and gunpowder comfortable bed itself. That same night the storm broke, and the next morning from the ship nothing left.primary concern of Robinson becoming the device safe, secures housing, and above all - in work of the sea, from which only can expect salvation. On the slope of the hill, he finds a flat meadow and on it, against a small indentation in the rock, decides to pitch a tent by protecting its palisades driven into the ground strong trunks. Enter the «fortress» could only be by a ladder.will learn to domesticate goats. In addition to ranching, Robinson will establish farming when germinate shake with rubbish from the bag of grain of barley and rice.though alone, but believes in the future and do not want to get lost in time, he makes a calendar - this is a great post on which he makes every day a notch. The first date there - September 30, 1659/the things that catch in the ship were ink, pens, paper, three Bibles, astronomical instruments, telescopes. Robinson keeps a diary., the island of nails wrecked ship, and Robinson gets surprise building material and tools. In those days he fell into a fever, repenting of their fatal errors, Robinson first time «for many years, praying, reading the Bible - and as much as cured. At his feet lift rum infused on tobacco, after which he slept for two nights. Accordingly, from his calendar fell one day., Robinson, finally, examines the island. And the island is rich in livestock - rabbits, foxes, turtles and even penguins. And decides to put a tent here, well to strengthen it and to live for several days to «cottage».his dream is to build a boat and reach the mainland. Robinson knocks a huge tree and a few months hew out a canoe. When she finally finished, he still cannot get it into the water.the everyday work place for another five years, highlighted the fact that he did build a boat, launch it and rigged sail. To a distant land on it does not get, but you can walk around the island. Robinson makes a royal gift - up! The island has a lot of tobacco.one of his walks Robinson sees the tracks in the sand bare foot. Scared to death, he returns to the «fortress» and sits there for three days. Most likely, it savages from the mainland.is filled with Robinson's new - and pleasant cares. Friday, as he called saved, was able to disciple, loyal and good friend.learned English, Friday says that on the mainland at his fellow tribesmen live 17 survivors from the Spanish wreck. Robinson decided to build a new canoe, and together with Friday to rescue captives.arrival savages violated their plans. Pa, this time cannibals bring the Spaniard and the old man, who turned out Friday's father. Robinson and Friday, has no worse than his master controlled from a gun, releasing them. Taking the Spaniard's sworn promise not to take it the Inquisition, Robinson sends it to Friday's father to the mainland. And on the eighth day, on the island arrive new guests. The only condition which puts Robinson - to deliver it with Friday in England.old Robinson ended: 11 June 1686 he returned to England. His parents died long ago, but still alive, good lady friend, widow of his first master. In Lisbon, he learns that all these years, his Brazilian plantation managed by the treasury official, and as it turns out that he was alive, he returns all the income for this period. Wealthy man, he takes into his care of two nephews, and the second prepares sailors. Finally, Robinson married (he is 61 years). He has two sons and a daughter.main character is Robinson Crusoe. Robinson was the third son in the family, spoiled child, he was not prepared to any trade, and from his childhood, his head was filled with «all sorts of things in» - mostly dreams of voyages. Robinson introduces the reader to the typical adventurer of the time. In the pursuit of profit, it is not decided on a dangerous adventure, and, eventually, because of their own greed tolerates failure. However, on the island Crusoe completely changed. It is worth noting that he does not surrender and for 28 years trying to get back to the mainland. He quickly learns, learned the craft, keeps the economy and not at risk for nothing. In order not to go crazy keeps a diary and calendar. Robinson is a strong man, using a cold calculation and skill. Crusoe can wait. hero of the product - Friday. Friday - Prisoner of savages, released Robinson. Thursday - thankful man. It helps Robinson, quickly learns the English language. In addition, he is still quite bold, not afraid of guns Robinson, though, and saw it first as a god.book I read in 5 class, but still it remains one of my favorite works of foreign literature. It is unlikely that I, like Robinson, would be able to survive on an un-inhabited island with no people and tools 28 years, and this fact compels respect Robinson. The story is very interesting and pleasing happy ending. However, the last thing I want to be in this situation.

    ´´The Shining´´ on hästi kirjutanud perekonnadraama, mille kõik kolm keskset tegelast - Jack, Wendy ja Danny Torrance on tugevad karakterid ning mille olustik on Kingi üks realistlikumaid ja seetõttu ehk ka mõjult jubedamaid. ´´The Shining´´ on romaan inimmõistusest, mis täieliku isolatsiooni seisundis aja jooksul tugevalt häiritud saab ning iseenese koletislikke saladusi ja mälestusi vajavasse keskkonda sattudes hääbub, uinub ja monstrumeid sünnitab. Niisiis üsna tüüpiline hulluksminemise anatoomia, mis romaani teises pooles vägivaldse ja verise kuju võtab. Kuigi agarad Kingi-arvustajad nõrganärvilistel ´´The Shiningist´´ hoiduda soovitavad, on selle romaanil ka oma tõsisem, miks mitte romantilinagi pool. Teose keskse probleemi loob omamoodi veider armastuskolmnurk - alkohoolikust isa, kes talvel täielikku eraldatusse sukelduses kirjatööks vajaminevat rahu ja vaikust otsib, teda jäägitult armastav ning temasse usku säilitav naine Wendy ja nende ühine poeg Danny, keda tema lapselikes mõtetes ja avastustes selgusele jõudmisel aitavad abstraktne soovkuju Tony ja Tony kujul avalduv võime asju ette (aga ka tagantjärele) näha. Lugu areneb kingilikult aeglaselt, detailidesse ning tegelaste minevikku ja olevikku süvenedes, aegajalt halvaendelisi vihjeid tehes ja romaani lõpul lugejalt süvenenud ja kannatlikku jälgimisvõimet nõudes. ´´The Shiningis´´ avalduvad kõik tüüpilised Stephen Kingi väljendusvahendid ja kirjanduslikud nipid.

    Outside of Ukraine monuments to Shevchenko have been put up in several location of the former USSR associated with his legacy, both in the Soviet and the post-Soviet times. The modern monument in Saint Petersburg was erected on December 22, 2000, but the first monument (pictured) was built in the city in 1918 on the order of Lenin shortly after the Great Russian Revolution. There is also a monument located next to the Shevchenko museum at the square that bears the poet's name in Orsk, Russia (the location of the military garrison where the poet served) where there are also a street, a library and the Pedagogical Institute named to the poet.[3] There are Shevchenko monuments and museums in the cities of Kazakhstan where he was later transferred by the military: Aqtau (the city was named Shevchenko between 1964 and 1992) and nearby Fort Shevchenko (renamed from Fort Alexandrovsky in 1939).

  • 679. Text analysis of the short story Piano by William Saroyan
    Дипломная работа пополнение в коллекции 06.05.2011

    The main narrative code employed is the documentary one, which reproduces a true-to life situation, involving the reader in a vital issue. Thus, by reading the story, one is a spectator of Ben and Emmas walk and conversations, the young mans short performance in a shop, and their genuine regret of the fact that he cannot buy a piano, despite his natural talent of playing. The simplicity of the plot centers the readers attention to the main themes explored by the author, like talent, poverty and hope. These seem to stand for the three stages of the short story, which present the process of discovering the young mans personality through the eyes of Emma. Therefore, at the very beginning, she becomes aware of his gift of playing the piano, then she realizes his inability of accomplishing his dream and buy a piano, and finally, she expresses her optimism stating that one day he will be able to purchase the object of his passion.story follows a straight-line narrative, in which the elements of the plot uncover the events arranged in a chronological order, and significant elements of flashback. In order to grasp the readers attention, the author begins with an unconventional exposition consisting of a dialogue. The two characters involved pass by a store. Ben is attracted by a piano and he asks for Emmas accord to get in and try a small piano in the corner. From the very beginning, his passion for music becomes obvious: I get excited every time I see a piano. This indirect way of expressing the idea denotes the fact that this sort of feeling is inexplicable to the protagonist himself and his further reply confirms it: I dont know. The small piano in the corner is a symbol of Bens modesty, and the hidden, mysterious aspect of his talent is marked by the place-in the corner. Emma was unaware of this likeness, so she becomes puzzled, facing an inner conflict: Shed go along for a while thinking she knew him and then all of a sudden shed know she didnt. The repetition of the question Can you play? emphasizes the girls interest in understanding the young man. Ben replies negatively, but his actions contradict his statement, as shown in the simile his hands go quietly to the white and black keys, like a real pianists. The adjective quietly, in this context, is meant to point out his fear of being seen using the piano, an idea reinforced by the epithet quiet chords.girl is amazed by the playing, and she expresses her feelings with the first chance: I think its wonderful, while Ben disregards his own participation, referring only to the instrument: It sounds good, followed by an explanation it has a fine tone, especially for a small piano. A new character, a clerk, comes into the picture, making a short speech about the product. The young mans first question about the price alludes to his desire of buying it. The price of 249, 50 is evaluated as high even by the clerk himself, as he immediately adds You can have terms, of course. The interlocutors way of changing the subject hints at the fact that he doesnt afford such a luxury, setting thus the conflict of the short story, followed by the development of the action.s strong desire of playing some more becomes more intensified, as it is visible even to the seller, who allows him to try it some more. At this stage, he is still skeptical of the fact that his activity is actually called playing, but he is reassured by the clerk: sounded good to me, go ahead, Id like to hear you play some more. This comment is meant to diminish the self-criticism emphasizing the idea of a great inborn talent.sentence he fooled around fifteen or twenty seconds and then found something like a melody and stayed with it two minutes is highly significant. First and foremost, by mentioning the seconds, the author underlines the value of every moment in front of the piano. The expression he fooled around classifies Bens activity as entertaining and spontaneous. Further on, something like a melody highlights his status as an amateur rather than a professional, one who trusts his instincts. A repeated mentioning of the immediate time: 2 minutes is just another way of saying that the time spent in front of the piano flies too fast for him. The young mans passion increases substantially, and his sadness at his approaching depart is felt in the music, which suggests the fact that he plays from the depth of his heart, rendering his feelings through the music: before he was through the music became quiet and sorrowful and Ben himself became more and more please with the piano.and Emma then go to a little restaurant and order sandwiches and coffee. These details and the previously mentioned financial situation make the reader think that both persons belong to an average social class of people, the sort of people who have to consider making enough money for a living and postponing the realization of their dreams. Ben explains, by means of flashback, the origins of his passion and its evolution. He touches upon the theme of money. The simile he smiled the way he did when e stood over the piano looking down at the keyboard shows that he likes Emma, that she is another of his passions and this makes her happy: Emma felt flattered. This fact points out the reciprocity of their relationship. This latter idea is reinforced some time later by she smiled back at him the way he was smiling at her. One may consider that the displaying of these feelings constitutes the climax, the point when they seem to see a sort of connection between themselves, when the emotion near a piano finally equalizes with the emotional next to a dare person.text has an open text structure, only suggesting a possible outcome: somehow or other she knew hed get a piano some day, and everything else, too. But the character cannot be considered trustworthy due to her emotional implication in the entire affair. In such a way, her desire may generate the prediction and not the facts.may be considered a dynamic character, as he changes his concept about his musical activity, becoming aware of the fact that what he produces really is music. He is sensitive, polite in addressing the clerk, and acts like a real gentleman with Emma (asks her before entering the shop, talks about his great passion, sees her off to The Emporium). The girl, on the other hand, is also a dynamic character, as she changes her perception of Ben, she has new ideas, and the two become closer due to the sharing of personal information and mutual support.title of the text has an orientative, providing a general idea on the content. It is a noun which encodes a hobby: playing the piano. The definite article is avoided in order to make the term more general, as the protagonist doesnt possess a piano of himself and the specific instrument used in the text is only one among many others that he had tried.short story created a sad atmosphere which is intended to resonate with the readers. They are expected to feel compassion and appreciation towards the protagonist, becoming aware of the fact that talented people are, sooner or later appreciated. The main idea is rendered directly by Ben himself, who states a general truth: Never having money keeps a man away from lots of things he figures he ought to have by rights. This philosophical approach to his own situation illustrates the characters mature attitude and his partial resignation, as he accepts his destiny humbly, without complain. However, Emmas last words induce a positive expectation, arousing the readers hope for a happy end, for the triumph of justice over fatality: Somehow or other she knew hed get the piano some day, and anything else, too.it is to regard the text from the perspective of music being an outer exposition of the inner state, denoting the musicians feelings, the text bears a remarkable resemblance to an extract of the novel Ragtime by E.L. Doctorow. The passage when Coalhouse Walker Jr. plays the piano to render his true feelings towards Sarah, the regret of losing her and the hope for reconciliation. Likewise, Bens music also expresses the regret and the hardly perceptible hope: the disappointment of not having a piano and the hope of ever getting one. The two works have a similar style too, as the dialogical markers are completely missing, simplifying the form to the advantage of the meaning. To sum it up, the two works are indeed works of art, exploring literature in a musical way. Therefore, a form of art which expresses the beauty of another is bound to rejoice success.
