Johann Sebastian Bach - French Suite III, BWV 814: Arranged for Two Guitars

Johann Sebastian Bach - French Suite III, BWV 814: Arranged for Two Guitars

Jeffrey Goodman

Createspace Independent Publishing Platform
2017
nidottu
At the age of thirty-seven, soon after Bach's wedding to Anna Magdalena on December 3, 1721, Bach presented her with a gift of his keyboard music. The Clavierb chlein of 1722 contained Bach's hand-copied manuscripts of the first five of the French Suites, as well as other of his keyboard compositions. Much of that original book has been lost, but the title page and several of the dance movements of French Suite III have survived. No other copies in Bach's hand exist today. Fortunately, a handful of manuscripts of the French Suites, often copied by Bach's pupils, have survived. Scholars of the renowned Bach-Gesellschaft created their definitive editions based on a study of all existing versions of Bach's works.This arrangement of Bach's French Suite III, BWV 814, is based on the Bach-Gesellschaft edition of his keyboard works. It contains both a fully notated score for two guitars, and individual guitar parts.

Speaking of Writing: A Brief Rhetoric - with MLA 2021 Update

Speaking of Writing: A Brief Rhetoric - with MLA 2021 Update

Allegra Goodman; Michael Prince

BROADVIEW PRESS LTD
2022
pokkari
Can a writing textbook inform and entertain? Can a very brief rhetoric also function as a stand-alone guide to college writing? Yes and yes. Speaking of Writing is a concise yet comprehensive rhetoric with readings. Informed by scholarship in Writing Studies, this book follows four college students from diverse backgrounds as they face the challenges of reading, writing, and critical thinking in first-year writing and across the disciplines. Each chapter engages students in relatable, often humorous scenarios that focus on key challenges.Through its story-based approach, Speaking of Writing enacts student-centered and process-based pedagogy, showing students learning to address fundamental questions: How can I apply my own strategies for success to new assignments? How can I maintain my own voice when asked to compose in an academic style? What do college professors mean by a "thesis," and how is this different from what my high-school teachers meant? Why is this argument weak, and how can I make it stronger? The book's narrative vividly dramatizes a draft-and-revision process that includes instructor feedback, peer review, and careful research.

Helen of Nowhere

Helen of Nowhere

Makenna Goodman

Coffee House Press
2025
nidottu
An electrifying novel about the delights and dangers of starting over. In the middle of the countryside, a realtor is showing a disgraced professor around an idyllic house. She speaks not only about the home's many wonderful qualities but about its previous owner, the mystifying Helen, whose presence still seems to suffuse every fixture. Through hearing stories of Helen's chosen way of living, the man begins to see that his own story is not actually over--rather, he is being offered a chance to buy his way into the simple life, close to the land, that's always been out of reach to him. But as evening fades into black, he will learn that the asking price may be much higher, and stranger, than anticipated. Philosophically and formally adventurous, at once intimate and cosmic in scope, Helen of Nowhere asks: What must we give up in exchange for true happiness?

The Shame

Milkweed Editions

A Literary Hub Recommended Read for August 2020A Bustle "Most Anticipated Book of August 2020"What if you could change your life? Would you do it? How would you do it? Alma and her family live close to the land: they raise chickens and sheep, they make maple syrup. Every day Alma's husband leaves for his job at a nearby college while she stays home with their young children, cleans, searches for secondhand goods online, and reads books by the women writers she adores. Then, one night, she abruptly leaves it all behind--speeding through the darkness, away from their Vermont homestead, bound for New York. In a series of flashbacks, Alma reveals the circumstances and choices that led to this moment. The joys and claustrophobia of their remote life through the passing of each season. Her fears and uncertainties about motherhood. The painfully awkward faculty dinners. Her feelings of loneliness and failure. And her growing fascination with Celeste: the mysterious ceramicist and self-loving doppelganger whose story begins as inspiration for Alma before turning into a powerful obsession. A fable both blistering and surreal, The Shame is a propulsive, funny, and thought-provoking debut about a woman in isolation, whose mind--fueled by capitalism, motherhood, and the search for meaningful art--attempts to betray her.

The Empire City

The Empire City

Paul Goodman

Black Sparrow Press,U.S.
2001
pokkari
The thirty year epic story of Horatio, an idealist who struggles to take his place in a conformist society and still retain his personal identity.“If we conformed to the mad society, we became mad,” Paul Goodman writes in Empire City, “but if we did not conform to the only society that there is, we became mad.” That theme prevades much of this novel that the Review of Contemporary Fiction, among others, praised as “a remarkable achievement.” This comic-picaresque epic is about the coming-of-age of Horatio, a sane man in an absurd world. Our endearingly optimistic hero resists his compulsory mis-education, does battle with the System, and scours post–World War II Manhattan for an elective family of fellow-thinkers and, more important, fellow-feelers. It’s a big book, but Horatio’s is a big world, and his question the biggest a man can ask: “How does one live the right life?” As Goodman once said, “I might seem to have a number of divergent interests—community planning, psychotherapy, education, politics—but they are all one concern: how to make it possible to grow up as a human being into a culture without losing nature. I simply refuse to acknowledge that a sensible and honorable community does not exist.”

Consumer Culture

Douglas Goodman; Mirelle Cohen

ABC-CLIO
2003
sidottu
An engrossing review of the development of global consumerism and its impact on sociological issues.The phrase "shop till you drop" has become as American as apple pie and the trend does not appear to be slowing. Consumer Culture begins with the history of the consumer culture, which reveals that our fascination with consuming shows not only the hidden significance of everyday items, such as sugar and fashionable clothing, but also reveals the uniqueness of our way of life.Consumer Culture also presents the views of economists and sociologists who see consumption as an expression of freedom. The book covers the social impact of consumption, examining such dubious milestones as physical attacks upon McDonald's and Starbucks, and best sellers that are critical of consumption. There is coverage of important research, such as whether consumers are making rational or impulsive choices and the effect of advertising on children.Capsule biographies of key individuals, such as Aaron Montgomery Ward, who pioneered the modern catalog, and Ray Kroc, founder of McDonald's; important figures in advertising, such as Helen Rosen Woodward; leaders in the consumer protection movement, such as Ralph Nader and Florence Kelley; and moreStatistics on U.S. and global consumption trends including clustering and segmentation in patterns of consumption; the growth of franchises and malls; shopping behavior by age, ethnicity, and geographical location; and environmental effects such as those due to garbage production

Growing Up Absurd

Growing Up Absurd

Paul Goodman

NYRB Classics
2012
nidottu
Paul Goodman's Growing Up Absurd was a runaway best seller when it was first published in 1960, and it became one of the defining texts of the New Left. Goodman was a writer and thinker who broke every mold and did it brilliantly--he was a novelist, poet, and a social theorist, among a host of other things--and the book's surprise success established him as one of America's most unusual and trenchant critics, combining vast learning, an astute mind, utopian sympathies, and a wonderfully hands-on way with words. For Goodman, the unhappiness of young people was a concentrated form of the unhappiness of American society as a whole, run by corporations that provide employment (if and when they do) but not the kind of meaningful work that engages body and soul. Goodman saw the young as the first casualties of a humanly re-pressive social and economic system and, as such, the front line of potential resistance. Noam Chomsky has said, "Paul Goodman's impact is all about us," and certainly it can be felt in the powerful localism of today's renascent left. A classic of anarchist thought, Growing Up Absurd not only offers a penetrating indictment of the human costs of corporate capitalism but points the way forward. It is a tale of yesterday's youth that speaks directly to our common future.
