Successful writer Peter Felix is still, years later, dealing with the fallout from the disastrous reception of his novel Dark Conquest when he gets a call from iconic British screen idol Guy Larymer. This fast-paced novel plots the course of the two men as they struggle with unreliable financial backers, over-emotional actors and their own volatile personal lives in their fight to bring their blockbuster of the Norman Conquest to the big screen and revive their stalling careers. The fights; the intrigues; the gory glory of one of history's greatest events, the Battle of Hastings, is paralleled in this hilarious account of the making of the movie. A must for film-buffs, this poignant story will touch anyone who is stirred by history and gripped by the bitter-sweet follies of life.

From the Top: Brief Transmissions from Tent Show Radio

From the Top: Brief Transmissions from Tent Show Radio

Michael Perry

Wisconsin Historical Society Press
2013
nidottu
"Bottom line is, I'm the kind of guy who's happy to go to the opera, but I should like to be allowed to wear steel-toed boots with my evening suit. I like to read Harper's with a chaser of Varmint Hunter Magazine. Maybe that's why I enjoy a good show under canvas. Here we sit, brain-deep in arts and culture, but we're also just people hanging out in a tent, some of us wearing boots, a few of us wearing Birkenstocks, but best of all we're breathing free fresh air filled with music." From Scandihoovian Spanglish to snickering chickens, New York Times bestselling author and humorist Michael Perry navigates a wide range of topics in this collection of brief essays drawn from his weekly appearances on the nationally syndicated Tent Show Radio program. Fatherhood, dumpster therapy, dangerous wedding rings, Christmas trees, used cars, why you should have bacon in your stock portfolio, loggers in clogs--whatever the subject, Perry has a rare ability to touch both the funny bone and the heart.

From Judaism to Christianity

From Judaism to Christianity

Michael Perry Weitzman

Oxford University Press
2000
sidottu
Dr Michael Weitzman was one of the leading biblical scholars of his generation. This volume brings together his most important contributions to the study of the Hebrew and the Syriac bibles, and the relationship between ancient Judaism and emerging Christianity. The Syriac Version has not traditionally been studied in its Jewish context. From Judaism to Christianity examines this Version in relation to the non-rabbinic Jewish community in which it was produced, and traces the development of its religious orientation towards Christianity. It will be extremely useful to anyone interested in the relationships between the Versions, as well as its Jewish literary, religious, and historical setting. In addition to being a biblical scholar of distinction, Dr Weizman was also an outstanding Semitic philologist, an accomplished Classicist, and a Statistician.

From writers Jesse Mathes (A Gangsta Myx, Ellis Charles) and Michael Perry (Well Wishes from a wishing well soul) comes the century's most action-packed and most human science-fiction movement.An assortment of crises have now occurred on Zanzibar...and beyond. Now, the strongest fleet Kalimba has is poised to face the great strength of the Regal-Corps, among the stars. While the remainder of it is now stretched thin, above Planet Zanzibar, human suffering has expanded. Withe the addition of a new faction called the Trans-Stellar party, who have elected a president of the entire sector surrounding Planet Zanzibar. This president has no regard for human life; a characteristic not absent of "Certain" leaders.The President now has connections to the dystopia-driven Regal Corps, led by a Regal Commander, who has come under certain scrutiny, after another failed attempt at another invasion of Zanzibar. His purpose is to seize the planet, full of many natural resources, and others to his liking. Chaos, and a leopard of Zanzibari legend, rome this tale of action-adventure of good vs. evil. Can the Corps of Kalimba, led by Frezu Nezu and other men defeat their oppressor? In the wake of this great peril, in the end, one will rise above the rest, but which side of humanity will prevail? Also, what triumphs and tragedies will emerge on Zanzibar, and beyond for humanity? All should read and discover what lies upon Zanzibar...and beyond.

The Cultural Crisis of Sub-Saharan Africa as Depicted in the African Writers' Series

The Cultural Crisis of Sub-Saharan Africa as Depicted in the African Writers' Series

Michael Perry Kweku Okyerefo

Peter Lang AG
2001
nidottu
Africa has variously been described as the -lost Continent-, a -Continent at risk-, not least because of the ethnic or civil wars plaguing this continent and their concomitant genocide. Indeed, Africa has been plunged into a political and socio-economic quagmire. This state of -cultural crisis- is what this work makes its theme. Crisis as a sociological phenomenon, which in the case of the African situation - in contrast to the conventional European appraisal - is apparently far from being a transitional period, a period of -decision-. This sociological analysis of -historical-, African literary works is aimed at creating that self-awareness which is imperative as a curb on African identity crisis, to warrant the impetus for human development on this continent."

Astronomical Applications of Astrometry

Astronomical Applications of Astrometry

Michael Perryman

Cambridge University Press
2008
sidottu
The Hipparcos satellite, developed and launched by the European Space Agency (ESA) in 1989, was the first space mission dedicated to astrometry - the accurate measurement of positions, distances, and proper motions of stars. Amongst the key achievements of its measurements are refining the cosmic distance scale, characterising the large-scale kinematic motions in the Solar neighbourhood, providing precise luminosities for stellar modelling, and confirming Einstein's prediction of the effect of gravity on starlight. This authoritative account of the Hipparcos contributions over the following decade is an outstanding reference for astronomers, astrophysicists and cosmologists. It reviews the applications of the data in different areas, describing the subject and the state-of-the-art before Hipparcos, and summarising all major contributions to the topic made by Hipparcos. It contains a detailed overview of the Hipparcos and Tycho Catalogues, their annexes and their updates. Each chapter ends with comprehensive references to relevant literature.

The Exoplanet Handbook

The Exoplanet Handbook

Michael Perryman

Cambridge University Press
2018
sidottu
With the discovery of planets beyond our solar system 25 years ago, exoplanet research has expanded dramatically, with new state-of-the-art ground-based and space-based missions dedicated to their discovery and characterisation. With more than 3,500 exoplanets now known, the complexity of the discovery techniques, observations and physical characterisation have grown exponentially. This Handbook ties all these avenues of research together across a broad range of exoplanet science. Planet formation, exoplanet interiors and atmospheres, and habitability are discussed, providing in-depth coverage of our knowledge to date. Comprehensively updated from the first edition, it includes instrumental and observational developments, in-depth treatment of the new Kepler mission results and hot Jupiter atmospheric studies, and major updates on models of exoplanet formation. With extensive references to the research literature and appendices covering all individual exoplanet discoveries, it is a valuable reference to this exciting field for both incoming and established researchers.

The Making of History's Greatest Star Map

The Making of History's Greatest Star Map

Michael Perryman

Springer-Verlag Berlin and Heidelberg GmbH Co. K
2010
sidottu
From prehistoric times, mankind has looked up at the night sky, and puzzled at the changing positions of the stars. How far away they are is a question that has confounded scientists for centuries. Over the last few hundred years, many scientific careers – and considerable resources – have been devoted to measuring their positions and motions with ever increasing accuracy. And in the last two decades of the 20th century, the European Space Agency developed and launched the Hipparcos satellite, around which this account revolves, to carry out these exacting measurements from space.What has prompted these remarkable developments? Why have governments been persuaded to fund them? What are scientists learning from astronomy's equivalent of the Human Genome Project? This book traces the subject's history, explains why such enormous efforts are considered worthwhile, and interweaves these with a first-hand insight into the Hipparcos project, and how big science is conducted at an international level. The involvement of amateur astronomers, and the Hipparcos contributions to climate research, ‘death stars' passing close to the Sun, and the search for extra-solar planets and even intelligent life itself, are some of the surprising facets of this unusual space mission.

Exploring the Transfiguration Story

Exploring the Transfiguration Story

John Michael Perry

Sheed Ward,U.S.
1993
nidottu
In this concise study, John Perry enables the reader to see that the Transfiguration story does not recount an actual event, but was created to teach an important "symbolic" lesson abou thte Risen Jesus. To that end, he explains: (1) the conflict within the early church that called the story into being; (2) the nature ofmidrash and the role that it played in the formation of the story. Perry then considers why Mark, the writer of the first Gospel, decided to modify the Transfiguration story known to him and use it in his Gospel. Finally, answers are provided for 12 questiosn frequently prompted by contemporary readings of this story. These answers shed considerable light on the way the early church went about the task of preserving and interpreting the sacred history of Jesus.
