Room Full of Mirrors

A Biography of Jimi Hendrix

By: Charles R. Cross

It has been more than thirty-five years since Jimi Hendrix died, but his music and spirit are still very much alive for his fans everywhere. Charles R. Cross vividly recounts the life of Hendrix, from his difficult childhood and adolescence in Seattle through his incredible rise to celebrity in London's swinging sixties. It is the story of an outrageous life--with legendary tales of sex, drugs, and excess--while it also reveals a man who struggled to accept his role as idol and who privately craved the kind of normal family life he never had. Using never-before-seen documents and private letters, and based on hundreds of interviews with those who knew Hendrix--many of whom had never before agreed to be interviewed--Room Full of Mirrors unlocks the vast mystery of one of music's most enduring legends.

Colours of Film

The Story of Cinema in 50 Palettes

By: Charles Bramesco

‘What’s so wonderful about Bramesco’s book, outside of a visually splendid layout that embraces the first word of that title with detailed color breakdowns of each palette, is how much it enhances the critical language of the average viewer.’ – Brian Tallerico, Editor of RogerEbert.com Taking you from the earliest feature films to today, Colours of Film introduces 50 iconic movies and explains the pivotal role that colour played in their success. The use of colour is an essential part of film. It has the power to evoke powerful emotions, provide subtle psychological symbolism and act as a narrative device. Wes Anderson’s pastels and muted tones are aesthetically pleasing, but his careful use of colour also acts as a shorthand for interpreting emotion. And let’s not forget Schindler’s List (1993, dir. Steven Spielberg), in which a bold flash of red against an otherwise black-and-white film is used as a powerful symbol of life, survival and death. In Colours of Film, film critic Charles Bramesco introduces an element of cinema that is often overlooked, yet has been used in extraordinary ways. Using infographic colour palettes, and stills from the movies, this is a lively and fresh approach to film for cinema-goers and colour lovers alike. He also explores in fascinating detail how the development of technologies have shaped the course of modern cinema, from how the feud between Kodak and Fujifilm shaped the colour palettes of the 20th Century's greatest filmakers, to how the advent of computer technology is creating a digital wonderland for modern directors in which anything is possible. Filled with sparkling insights and fascinating accounts from the history of cinema, Colours of Film is an indispensable guide to one of the most important visual elements in the medium of film.

Taking you on from the earliest feature films to today, Colors of Film introduces 50 iconic movies and explains the pivotal role that color played in their success. The use of color is an essential part of film. It has the power to evoke powerful emotions, provide subtle psychological symbolism and act as a narrative device. Wes Anderson’s pastels and muted tones are aesthetically pleasing, but his careful use of color also acts as a shorthand for interpreting emotion. Moonlight(2016, dir. Barry Jenkins) cinematographer (James Laxton) and colorist (Alex Bickel) spent 100 hours fine-tuning the saturation and hues of the footage so that the use of color evolved in line with the growth of the protagonist through the film. And let’s not forget Schindler’s List (1993, dir. Steven Spielberg), in which a bold flash of red against an otherwise black-and-white film is used as a powerful symbol of life, survival and death.

Problems in Contract Law

Cases and Materials

By: Charles L. Knapp,Nathan M. Crystal,Harry G. Prince

In Problems in Contract Law: Cases and Materials, Ninth Edition, by Charles L. Knapp, Nathan M. Crystal, and Harry G.

Jones) that provide valuable perspectives on fundamental areas of contract law Eight new problems (including seven net additions and one replacement) to provide more review options for teachers and students and to add contemporary fact patterns A new, two-color design featuring interesting photographs illustrating people and places discussed in some of the cases Editing of note and text material to reduce length without affecting coverage Reorganization of text and comment material to focus comments primarily on historical developments, allowing professors flexibility in assigning or deleting comments Student accessibility to deleted cases from prior editions through Connected Casebook, allowing professors the further flexibility of continuing to easily assign cases for which they have a particular preference Professors and students will benefit from: Flexible application for professors with various teaching methodologies: traditional, problem, theoretical, and practical A mixture of classic and contemporary cases The authors’ emphasis on accessibility of the material—rejecting a hide-the-ball approach Review questions at the end of each chapter that are primarily designed for students to perform self-assessments of their grasp of the material.

The Pilgrim Edition of the Letters of Charles Dickens: Volume 6: 1850-1852

By: Charles Dickens,Madeline House

This volume presents 1,592 letters, 668 of them previously unpublished, for the years 1850 to 1852. This was a time of great activity for Dickens, who completed the serial publication of David Copperfield, began work on Bleak House, successfully established the weekly Household Words (in which his own serial A Child's History of England appeared), and wrote about 100 articles and stories for the journal, including many uncollected pieces. In April 1851 he and Sir Edward Bulwer Lytton founded the Guild of Literature and Art, a scheme to help writers and artists. He also suffered a number of personal blows: the deaths of his father, his baby daughter Dora, and two of his close friends, Richard Watson and Alfred D'Orsay; there was also anxiety over the illness of his wife Catherine.

Loring and Rounds

A Trustee's Handbook, 2022 Edition

By: Jr. Charles E. Rounds,Charles E. Rounds

Loring and Rounds: A Trustee's Handbook (2022) is an invaluable practical resource that addresses the rights, duties, and obligations of the parties once the trustee takes title to trust property. This Handbook steers you through this complex field, providing property owners with a mechanism for seeing to the needs of beneficiaries in cost-effective, creative, efficient, and flexible ways. Loring and Rounds: A Trustee's Handbook (2022) is a handy, ready reference, and a gateway to the treatises, restatements, law review articles, uniform statutes, and cases you need to know. This fully integrated and bound volume of the Handbook brings you up to date on the latest cases, statutes, and developments, as well as new or updated discussion of topics as follow: The Handbook continues the lengthy process of pruning some of the deadwood; significant exposition has been cut, revised, or combined. In sum, the Handbook is now even leaner, meaner, and more usable than ever. In addition, numerous new cases and secondary sources have been added. These include the following: In the 2022 Edition, there are 91 judicial-decision references and 186 footnotes that were not in the 2021 Edition. Forty pre-existing footnotes have been revised along with their accompanying texts. There has been a major across-the-board expansion, re-organization, renovation, consolidation, coordination, and updating of the content devoted to the intersection of trust law and constitutional (U.S.) law. We have, for example, opened up a whole new section devoted entirely to relevant taking and due process jurisprudence. See §5.3.1A and its sub-sections. The Handbook's treatment of the Domestic Asset Protection Trust (DAPT) has been beefed up and consolidated in §9.28. While the Handbook has had much to say about the equitable doctrine of unclean hands as it pertains to trustee conduct, there has been little on its applicability to beneficiary conduct. This oversight has been corrected. See §§ 5.5 & 7.1.9. All this, and much more is included in the 2022 Edition of the Handbook.
