The book 'Peace and Violence in Harold Pinter's Plays- Part - II' explores two contradictory terms 'Peace' and 'Violence' are closely associated with life whether it is personal or social. The concepts in this postmodern time of political violence are appropriate to think upon. Harold Pinter was known to the world for his 'Absurd Theatre' and who could set a different place for himself in this world of anxiety and suppression. His contribution to absurd theatre gave a solid message of peace to the world. His indirect attack on foreign policies suggests his quest for peace and humanity. The plays like The Room, The Dumbwaiter, A Slight Ache and One for the Road are satirical in tone and a unique epitome of his hate for brutal game of violence. The book which introduces the contradictory concepts 'Peace' and 'Violence' has been significantly focused on relevance of these concepts to literature and society by the authors. Understanding Pinter's violence in the plays and silence of characters mean experiencing realistic picture of physical violence and urge for betterment of human being.
Das Buch Frieden und Gewalt in Harold Pinters St cken - Teil - II erforscht zwei widerspr chliche Begriffe: "Frieden" und "Gewalt" sind eng mit dem Leben verbunden, sei es im pers nlichen oder im gesellschaftlichen Bereich. In dieser postmodernen Zeit der politischen Gewalt sind die Begriffe geeignet, zum Nachdenken anzuregen. Harold Pinter war der Welt f r sein "Absurdes Theater" bekannt und konnte sich in dieser Welt der Angst und Unterdr ckung einen anderen Platz erobern. Sein Beitrag zum absurden Theater vermittelte der Welt eine solide Botschaft des Friedens. Sein indirekter Angriff auf die Au enpolitik deutet auf sein Streben nach Frieden und Menschlichkeit hin. Die St cke wie The Room, The Dumbwaiter, A Slight Ache und One for the Road sind satirisch im Ton und ein einzigartiger Inbegriff seines Hasses auf das brutale Spiel der Gewalt. Das Buch, in dem die widerspr chlichen Konzepte "Frieden" und "Gewalt" vorgestellt werden, wurde von den Autoren stark auf die Bedeutung dieser Konzepte f r Literatur und Gesellschaft ausgerichtet. Pinters Gewalt in den St cken und das Schweigen der Figuren zu verstehen, bedeutet, ein realistisches Bild von physischer Gewalt und dem Drang nach Verbesserung des menschlichen Seins zu erleben.

Harold C. Urey (1893-1981) was one of the most famous American scientists of the twentieth century. Awarded the Nobel Prize in 1934 for his discovery of deuterium and heavy water, Urey later participated in the Manhattan Project and NASA's lunar exploration program. In this, the first ever biography of the chemist, Matthew Shindell shines new light on Urey's achievements and efforts to shape his public and private lives. Shindell follows Urey through his orthodox religious upbringing, the scientific work that won him the Nobel, and his subsequent efforts to use his fame to intervene in political, social, and scientific matters. At times, Urey succeeded, including when he helped create the fields of isotope geochemistry and cosmochemistry. But other endeavors, such as his promotion of world governance of atomic weapons, failed. By exploring those efforts, as well as Urey's evolution from farm boy to scientific celebrity, we can discern broader changes in the social and intellectual landscape of twentieth-century America. More than a life story, this book immerses readers in the struggles and triumphs of not only an extraordinary man, but also his extraordinary times.

Some of his friends are telling him they think Harold's not real...
Wilbur Schramm and Noam Chomsky Meet Harold Innis is an original, critical, in-depth analysis of the media and communication thought of Canada’s most highly acclaimed scholar, Harold Adams Innis. Even in Canada, however, Innis’s writings until now have been only partially cited and interpreted: Innis is usually stereotyped as being merely an economic historian fixated on previous civilizations, whereas in fact he was an astute analyst whose main concerns were with present problems and future trajectories. In the United States, meanwhile, Innis’s media and communication writings have been quite neglected and even denigrated. Drawing on Innis’s less frequently cited work, including his long neglected Political Economy in the Modern State, Robert Babe opens up Innis’s media scholarship as a whole, unfolding it in startling critical, yet ultimately appreciative ways. By comparing Innis’s media scholarship with Wilbur Schramm's and Noam Chomsky's, moreover, Babe tests the claims, positions, and modes of analysis not only of Innis, but also of the other two celebrated scholars as well, casting new light on their works and allowing the reader to imagine what sort of discourses might have been possible had the three been in conversation together. Wilbur Schramm and Noam Chomsky Meet Harold Innis provides comparative insight into foundational media scholarship in the United States and Canada, and explores in some detail the relevance of Innis for twenty-first century digitized society.

The original script was sold to a major Hollywood studio virtually overnight; the screenwriter was working as a pool boy and driver for the producer; the director was considered an "acid freak" by the studio heads; the star was a 74-year-old actress who didn't know how to drive a car. The film flopped upon release but later became one of the great cult successes of all time. This is the fascinating, never before told story of the making of Harold and Maude, shot guerrilla-style in the San Francisco Bay Area by a crew of "New Hollywood" filmmakers in the winter of 1971.

THE STORY THAT HAS NEVER BEEN TOLD Even rarer than the appearance of Halley's Comet in the year 1066 A.D. was the appearance of three undefeated warrior kings that same year. All three of these warrior kings felt that they had a claim to the British crown, and all three were intrepid fighters who were well known for never taking a step backward. For this reason 1066 was a historical year unlike any other. Normandy's William the Conqueror is one of the most dashing, powerful, and massively influential figures in all of world history. Equally fascinating is Harold Godwinson, crowned King Harold II of England in January of 1066. Norway's Haarald (Hard Rule) Hardrada, the incomparable Viking warrior king, also played a central role in the destiny of the world in that amazing year. These two historical giants, William and Harold, became the greatest of friends -- and the worst of enemies. Caught in the middle of this raging storm that resulted in The Battle of Hastings was Princess Adelize, the young and beautiful daughter of William, and the devoted fianc of King Harold II. Humor Heart History These are the three words that define this historical saga that is written in the style of an Arthurian adventure novel. "I have boundless admiration for these historical figures whose feats and sacrifices were second to none in world history, and aspired for all I am worth and stand for in this life to bring to the reader their timeless story in a manner that the reader would find both informative and entertaining. That is why I wrote this book." Jesse Lee Vint III
