Erec et Enide features many of the common elements of Arthurian romance, such as Arthurian characters, the knightly quest, and women or love as a catalyst to action. While it is not the first story to use conventions of the Arthurian characters and setting, Chr tien de Troyes is credited with the invention of the Arthurian romance genre by establishing expectation with his contemporary audience based on its prior knowledge of the subjects.
It's the year 2020, and Eric Beckman is a mind-reading detective. Although he reads only the conscious thoughts of the people he interviews, it usually gives him enough of an edge to overcome his inexperience as a PI. But mind reading is hell on relationships. Trusting comes hard when you know what people are really thinking.The case of his life lands in his lap when a beautiful woman materializes during a televised baseball game. She floats in midair, then drops to the ground, comatose. Beckman is at her bedside when she wakes up. From the moment she opens her eyes, she has him under her spell. He vows to figure out where-or when-she came from, even if it kills him.The stakes increase when she disappears without a trace. Worse, she holds the key to a worldwide energy catastrophe. If Beckman can't find her and unlock her secrets, economies will collapse, and the world will spiral down into chaos.
Ein Mann wird nackt, blutend und ohne Erinnerung auf einem Zebrastreifen in Berlin aufgefunden. W hrend er in winzigsten Schritten versucht, wieder an seine Vergangenheit anzukn pfen, wollen die Menschen aus seinem Leben ihn mit Hochgeschwindigkeit in sein altes Leben zur ckbringen. Je mehr er die ihm v llig fremde Welt erkundet, desto tiefer wird er eingesogen in einen Wirbel von Macht, Geld, Emotionen und Gewalt. Als sich die Situation in jeder Beziehung zuspitzt, steht er vor der Entscheidung, ob er in diese Existenz zur ckkehren kann und m chte. Schlie lich geht es um nicht weniger als sein Leben.
Have you ever felt deeply moved by a piece of art? Perhaps a movie, book, dance, painting, or piece of music even spurred you to create? Transcending Boundaries is a wide-ranging collection of poems inspired by Eric Whitacre and Virtual Choir. These poems of inclusiveness and love act as an antidote to divisiveness and fear. I first heard about Eric Whitacre from his TED talk. He's a Grammy award-winning composer/conductor who envisioned what became the global phenomenon of Virtual Choir. The way it works is this: From anywhere in the world, singers learn and record their individual parts (soprano, alto, tenor, or bass) to one of his choral pieces. The videos are sent via the internet, compiled, and released. The first 4 VC videos have been viewed more than ten million times Singers of all ages and abilities, from everywhere in the world, are encouraged to join in. Thousands of singers from more than 100 countries have participated. No one is turned away. My whole life I've loved to sing. Once I heard about Virtual Choir, I longed to be part of it. For VC3 and VC4, I learned the music, recorded, and sent in my alto videos. For five years I also wrote this series of poems sparked by Eric Whitacre-his glorious music, gracious interviews, and Facebook posts-and the compelling stories and true connections with VC singers. My intention with Transcending Boundaries is to aid in healing what seems to divide us, enhance compassion and empathy, and awaken the imagination, encouraging yet further creativity. Who should read this? Anyone who has ever felt the power of music (or any art) to move us: listeners, singers, musicians, and of course, those who are part of Virtual Choir. These reflective poems allow you to experience optimism, generosity, playfulness, kindness, and beauty, celebrating the open-hearted, richness of being human. May healing inspiration continue to ripple out.
