British Fantasy Cinema

Death, Modernity and Scottish Literature in the Nineteenth Century

By: Carolyn Rickards

Provides a fresh perspective on British fantasy film Combines a methodological approach of textual analysis, critical discourse and production histories to expand current knowledge and appreciation of British fantasy film Promotes new avenues for film studies by investigating a comprehensive range of British film titles previously disputed or overlooked in existing academic scholarship Informs a more general understanding which is focused on contemporary fantasy but contributes to a broader, historical assessment of the fantastic within British cinema In the period since 2001, cinema has witnessed a notable influx in fantasy film. Many constitute adaptations from British fantasy literature, often created and produced in the UK, and showcase domestic talent both in front and behind the screen. This includes massive box office hits such as the Harry Potter series (2001 – 2011) through to smaller scale and independent endeavours like Nanny McPhee (2005), MirrorMask (2005) and Franklyn (2008). However, such films have received minimal critical attention as British fantasy films. The reasons for this absence are manifold; leaving many films contested, ignored and omitted from established canons. This book re-addresses prevailing scholarship on the fantasy genre, national film production and representation on screen, providing readers with a revised appraisal of the contemporary film landscape. It delivers a fresh perspective across a broad range of films which all embrace the fantastic within British cinema.

The Origin of Life

A Biblical Validation

By: Reverend Carolyn W. Brown

LIVE FOREVER - GUARANTEED! In this book, the Rev. Carolyn W. Brown deals with subjects that humankind has wrestled with regarding its origin. Exploring the question of where humankind came from, she eloquently uses her mastery and understanding of the Holy Bible to validate the answers. In addition to the use of scriptures, she uses her personal stories of defeats and victories to help her provide living proof of how God's grace and mercy aid life's journey. Besides sharing these treasures, she discusses the adversarial situations facing humankind. Rev. Brown exposes Lucifer's plans to keep us from obtaining the gift of eternal life, Finally, she emphasizes the choice we have to receive eternal life, offering valuable instruction on how to obtain it. She unashamedly leads us to the cornerstone the builders rejected. She encourages us to lead a life worthy of the gift that was given to us. Carolyn W. Brown received the gift of eternal life at the age of twenty-three. She attended Shaw University Divinity School in Raleigh, North Carolina, graduating with a B.A. Degree in Religion and Philosophy. Since then, she has developed a deep conviction for the salvation of the souls of others. Among her many accomplishments as an educated, ordained minister, she is the author of How You Know, That You Know, You Are Saved. Through many trials and triumphs, she has endeavored to live a fruitful life. Carolyn W. Brown was married for fifty years to her dear departed Robert E. Brown, Sr. She has two grown children: Robert E. Brown, Jr. and Felicia R. Brown. She also has three grandchildren: Jacob Burton, Joshua R. Brown, and Joseph L. Brown

Human Performance Improvement

Building Practitioner Performance

By: William J. Rothwell,Carolyn K. Hohne,Stephen B. King

Organizations are under pressure to build and sustain competitive advantage with and through people. For that reason, managers continue to demand results from workers and look for as many ways as possible to increase productivity and decrease the costs of doing business. Human performance improvement (HPI) is a systematic approach to securing better performance from people. This book provides a thorough overview of the theory and practice of HPI, looking at the long-term action plan and specific interventions that can improve productivity and address performance problems. This new edition provides up-to-date references and sources, examines the manager’s role in HPI in more detail than previous editions, and explores how to build on human performance improvement strengths and opportunities. Written by a group of highly respected authors in the field, this book will show you how to discover and analyze performance gaps, plan for future improvements in human performance, and design and develop cost-effective interventions to close performance gaps. HPI is not a tool reserved exclusively for training and development practitioners, human resource specialists, or external consultants. Almost anyone can use it, including managers, supervisors, and even employees, making this book vital reading for anyone looking to improve human performance.

The Climate Girl Effect

Fridays, Flint, and Fire

By: Heather M. Crandall,Carolyn M. Cunningham

From podiums on international stages to mainstream media coverage, from crowds of youth marching in streets, to social media feeds, everywhere we look we can see girls rising in the climate justice movement. Carolyn M. Cunningham and Heather M. Crandall examine these climate activists from the intersection of gender studies, new media studies, and environmental activism. Chapters include cases about iconic climate girls such as Greta Thunberg, Mari Copeny, and Autumn Peltier (Wiikwemkoong First Nation) and lesser-known climate girl activists who design technologies, global non-profit organizations, and lawsuits against governments. Cunningham and Crandall reveal that climate girls are intersectional activists aware of how systems of oppression—including racism, heterosexism, and capitalism—impact the climate crisis. Individuals interested in women’s and gender studies, environmental studies, and communications studies will find this book of particular interest.

William Grant Still

A Bio-Bibliography

By: Michael J. Dabrishus,Carolyn Quin,Judith A. Still

Presenting the life and professional career of The Dean of Afro-American Composers, this is the first comprehensive book on the writings by and about Still, the compositions with manuscript sources, the performances of Still's works, and the reviews of those performances. It includes a touching personal reminiscence by his daughter Judith Anne. The full resources of the extensive collection known as The William Grant Still and Verna Arvey Papers at the University of Arkansas Libraries, Fayetteville, give this book the distinction of being the first one about Still that utilizes diaries, letters, scrapbooks, and family papers to provide information on his works and performances. Still performed, composed, and arranged in the commercial music field before he began to write orchestral works and opera. He is called the Dean of Afro-American Composers because of his pioneering efforts on behalf of American music and his achievements as an African American. Still was the first African American to write a symphony that was performed by a major symphony orchestra in the United States, the first to conduct a major symphony orchestra, the first to conduct a major symphony in the Deep South, the first to direct a white radio orchestra, the first to have an opera produced by a major company, and the first to have an opera televised over a national network. His career tells an important story about the development of an American style of music.

A Little Class on Murder

By: Carolyn Hart

When mystery bookstore owner Annie Laurance is invited to teach "The Three Great Ladies of the Mystery" class at Chastain Community College, the sometime sleuth discovers that all is not strictly academic in Chastain's hallowed halls of learning. And when a shocking scandal in the school newspaper erupts in a suicide and two violent deaths, Professor Laurance enlists the talents of her new hubby, private eye Max Darling, and dons her thinking cap to probe intrigue and vengeance among Chastain's faculty. A Dangerous Thing Max and Annie, with dubious help from three of their own great ladies of the mystery -- Annie's pixilated mother-in-law, a batty local dowager, and a Christie crime fanatic -- learn that just about everyone at the school had means, motive, and access to the murder weapons. From the secretly boozing professor of advertising to the muscle-bound campus cad who barters passing grades for a little extracurricular activity, anyone on the faculty is a possible killer -- waiting to strike again!

The Darkroom

By: Carolyn Banks

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

The Darkroom

By: Carolyn Banks

Carolyn Banks based the character of William Holland on the high-profile case of Bradford Bishop, the State Department official who, in 1976, murdered his mother, his wife, and his three children in their suburban Maryland home. Allegedly, Bishop loaded the five battered bodies into the family station wagon and drove all night to a wooded grove in North Carolina. There, he dug a pit, dumped the remains of his loved ones, doused them with kerosene and set them afire. Smoke from the fire was spotted and the bodies were discovered and identified. Bradford Bishop, however, was long gone. Initially the FBI said Bishop had died in the Great Smoky Mountains, where the station wagon was abandoned. After several sightings, mostly abroad (Bishop had a diplomatic passport) the FBI’s opinion was revised. In 2014, Bradford Bishop was placed on the FBI’s Most Wanted List and CNN featured the Bishop family murders on its show, “The Hunt.” That was when author Carolyn Banks, intrigued by the level of rage and detachment that Bishop exhibited, decided to revive her novel, The Darkroom. The book creates a possible motive for the brutal killings. In The Darkroom, William Holland is an unwitting victim as well as a savage murderer. When he meets Carol Neal and her young sons, he sees a chance to recreate the family he murdered—a sort of atonement that even he does not understand. Carol, overwhelmed by single parenthood, talks herself out of her growing suspicions. Meanwhile, CIA operative Al Amatucci has never been able to let go of the case—in part because of his complicity in it. As the paths of these three characters—Bill Holland, Al Amatucci, and Carol Neal—begin to touch and cross, a plot of stunning consequence is set in motion.

Extraction Ecologies and the Literature of the Long Exhaustion

Extraction Ecologies and the Literature of the Long Exhaustion

By: Elizabeth Carolyn Miller

How literature of the British imperial world contended with the social and environmental consequences of industrial mining The 1830s to the 1930s saw the rise of large-scale industrial mining in the British imperial world. Elizabeth Carolyn Miller examines how literature of this era reckoned with a new vision of civilization where humans are dependent on finite, nonrenewable stores of earthly resources, and traces how the threatening horizon of resource exhaustion worked its way into narrative form. Britain was the first nation to transition to industry based on fossil fuels, which put its novelists and other writers in the remarkable position of mediating the emergence of extraction-based life. Miller looks at works like Hard Times, The Mill on the Floss, and Sons and Lovers, showing how the provincial realist novel’s longstanding reliance on marriage and inheritance plots transforms against the backdrop of exhaustion to withhold the promise of reproductive futurity. She explores how adventure stories like Treasure Island and Heart of Darkness reorient fictional space toward the resource frontier. And she shows how utopian and fantasy works like “Sultana’s Dream,” The Time Machine, and The Hobbit offer imaginative ways of envisioning energy beyond extractivism. This illuminating book reveals how an era marked by violent mineral resource rushes gave rise to literary forms and genres that extend extractivism as a mode of environmental understanding.

The Politics of Capital Investment

The Case of Philadelphia

By: Carolyn T. Adams

This book examines both the politics and products of the public investment process in one of America's largest cities. It broadens the scope of contemporary debates on the political economy of urban development to include not only large-scale redevelopment projects, but also neighborhood facilities such as schools, parks, and libraries. Showing the share of investments that went into Philadelphia's downtown versus its residential neighborhoods from 1950 to 1980, the author challenges the widely held view that public investment patterns simply reflect political pressures from pro-development groups. Instead she shows that a city's decision to build often hinges on the availability and the sources of investment capital.

Quakertown

By: Carolyn E. Potser,John T. Pilecki,Nancy Walp Bosworth

English and Welsh Quakers moving north from Philadelphia were the first European settlers to come to Quakertown in the early eighteenth century. German immigrants followed soon afterward and, together with their neighbors, formed this diverse community. The earliest settlement, beginning in 1716 and known as Rich Land, followed the path of the stagecoach on its route from Philadelphia to Allentown. Today, that path is Main Street, which has retained its old meetinghouse and Red Lion Inn. Historical places such as these, along with countless memorable people, events, and legends, make up Quakertown, a fascinating photographic record of this historic community. Quakertown was incorporated in 1855 and became a place where business and industry succeeded, leaders developed a respected school system, and volunteers organized their efforts to provide protection and services to residents. The stunning images in Quakertown not only chronicle physical changes that have occurred over one hundred fifty years but also convey the industrious and cooperative spirit of the people who shaped the town.

Boo Crew

By: Carolyn Keene

Help Nancy and her friends find the truth behind a haunted theater in the tenth book in the interactive Nancy Drew Clue Book mystery series. The hit TV show Twinkle Little Stars is coming to River Heights to audition contestants for their upcoming Halloween show. They’ll choose talented kids from all over the country to compete for prizes. Nancy, Bess, and George are dressing up as witches and are planning to create a special potion onstage for the judges. The recently renovated Heights Theatre has opened its doors for the auditions. The old theatre had been abandoned for fifty years but is now restored to its original beauty. But on the day of the auditions, everything seems to go wrong; the girls’ cauldron over bubbles, a werewolf mask makes its owner sneeze, spider webs fall on the dancers. That’s when the clue crew learns the Heights Theatre is rumored to be haunted—people say ghosts are the reason it stayed empty for so long. But Nancy knows better than to believe in ghosts. She’s sure that the culprit is of the human variety. Then Bess sees monsters dancing around a piano playing on its own—the keys moving but no is playing it. Could the rumors be true? Is the Heights Theatre really haunted? It’s up to the clue crew—and you—to find out!

Colour Films in Britain

The Eastmancolor Revolution

By: Sarah Street,Keith M. Johnston,Paul Frith,Carolyn Rickards

The story of Eastmancolor's arrival on the British filmmaking scene is one of intermittent trial and error, intense debate and speculation before gradual acceptance. This book traces the journey of its adoption in British Film and considers its lasting significance as one of the most important technical innovations in film history. Through original archival research and interviews with key figures within the industry, the authors examine the role of Eastmancolor in relation to key areas of British cinema since the 1950s; including its economic and structural histories, different studio and industrial strategies, and the wider aesthetic changes that took place with the mass adoption of colour. Their analysis of British cinema through the lens of colour produces new interpretations of key British film genres including social realism, historical and costume drama, science fiction, horror, crime, documentary and even sex films. They explore how colour communicated meaning in films ranging from the Carry On series to Monty Python's Life of Brian (1979), from Lawrence of Arabia (1962) to A Passage to India (1984), and from Goldfinger (1964) to 1984 (1984), and in the work of key directors and cinematographers of both popular and art cinema including Nicolas Roeg, Ken Russell, Ridley Scott, Peter Greenaway and Chris Menges.
