Remembering Greater Hampton Roads - - Bog - Turner Publishing Company - Plusbog.dk

Before the Jamestown colonists reached their final shore, they arrived at a place they named Cape Henry, and beyond that lay an inlet that would one day shelter the towns of Hampton Roads: Chesapeake, Hampton, Newport News, Norfolk, Portsmouth, Suffolk, and Virginia Beach. With a selection of fine historic images from their best-selling book Historic Photos of Greater Hampton Roads, Emily J. and John S. Salmon provide a valuable and revealing historical retrospective on the growth and development of the region. The images collected in Remembering Greater Hampton Roads offer a remarkable glimpse into the history of these unique communities. Published in vivid black-and-white, these images communicate the historic events and everyday life of two centuries of Americans and two centuries of a fascinating corner of America. Remembering Greater Hampton Roads is sure to captivate anyone curious about the region’s past, from the student of history to the local history buff.

Hampton on Hampton - Alistair Owen - Bog - Faber & Faber - Plusbog.dk

''A lot of my plays begin as comedies and mutate in the course of the evening, because my instinct is that you have to welcome the audience in and make sure they''re sitting comfortably before you can give them an adequate punch on the jaw.'' Since the acclaimed London première of his first play in 1966, Christopher Hampton has established himself as one of Britain''s most prominent, and least predictable, dramatists.From his best-known play, Les Liaisons Dangereuses , and its Oscar-winning film version, Dangerous Liaisons , to personal and critical favourites like Total Eclipse and Tales from Hollywood ; from his films as writer-director ( Carrington , Imagining Argentina ) to his work as screenwriter-for-hire ( Mary Reilly , The Quiet American ); from translations ( Art ) to musicals ( Sunset Boulevard ), Hampton eloquently - and entertainingly - explores his varied career with interviewer Alistair Owen, and discusses its recurring theme: the clash of liberal and radical thought, exemplified by his most recent play, The Talking Cure , about the fathers of psychoanalysis, Jung and Freud.
