When the Three Witches prophesy that Macbeth, a Scottish general, will become king, they unleash a series of events that prove tragic for all involved. Spurred by ambition, Macbeth and his ruthless Lady will stop at nothing, including murder, to make the throne theirs. Beginning with the murder of King Duncan and culminating with Lady Macbeth’s descent into madness and Macbeth’s final clash with Macduff, Macbeth is one of William Shakespeare’s greatest dramatic works. Known as “The Bard of Avon,” William Shakespeare is arguably the greatest English-language writer known. Enormously popular during his life, Shakespeare’s works continue to resonate more than three centuries after his death, as has his influence on theatre and literature. Shakespeare’s innovative use of character, language, and experimentation with romance as tragedy served as a foundation for later playwrights and dramatists, and some of his most famous lines of dialogue have become part of everyday speech. HarperPerennialClassics brings great works of literature to life in digital format, upholding the highest standards in ebook production and celebrating reading in all its forms. Look for more titles in the HarperPerennial Classics collection to build your digital library. |

This enhanced multi-touch eBook made specially for iBooks transforms The Making of Star Wars into an immersive multimedia experience worthy of the original film. It features exclusive content pulled from the Lucasfilm archives by author J. W. Rinzler: – 26 minutes of rare behind-the-scenes video – 29 minutes of rare audio interviews with the cast and crew – New bonus photos and artwork not found in the print edition After the 1973 success of American Graffiti , filmmaker George Lucas made the fateful decision to pursue a longtime dream project: a space fantasy movie unlike any ever produced. Lucas envisioned a swashbuckling SF saga inspired by the Flash Gordon serials, classic American westerns, the epic cinema of Japanese auteur Akira Kurosawa, and mythological heroes. Its original title: The Star Wars . The rest is history, and how it was made is a story as entertaining and exciting as the movie that has enthralled millions for more than thirty years—a story that has never been told as it was meant to be. Until now. Using his unprecedented access to the Lucasfilm Archives and its trove of “lost” interviews, photos, production notes, factoids, and anecdotes, Star Wars scholar J. W. Rinzler hurtles readers back in time for a one-of-a-kind behind-the-scenes look at the nearly decade-long quest of George Lucas and his key collaborators to make the “little” movie that became a phenomenon. It’s all here: – the evolution of the now-classic story and characters—including “Annikin Starkiller” and “a huge green-skinned monster with no nose and large gills” named Han Solo – excerpts from George Lucas’s numerous, ever-morphing script drafts – the birth of Industrial Light & Magic, the special-effects company that revolutionized Hollywood filmmaking – the studio-hopping and budget battles that nearly scuttled the entire project – the director’s early casting saga, which might have led to a film spoken mostly in Japanese—including the intensive auditions that won the cast members their roles and made them legends – the grueling, nearly catastrophic location shoot in Tunisia and the subsequent breakneck dash at Elstree Studios in London – the who’s who of young film rebels who pitched in to help—including Francis Ford Coppola, Steven Spielberg, and Brian DePalma But perhaps most exciting, and rarest of all, are the interviews conducted before and during production and immediately after the release of Star Wars—in which George Lucas, Mark Hamill, Harrison Ford, Carrie Fisher, Sir Alec Guinness, Anthony Daniels, composer John Williams, effects masters Dennis Muren, Richard Edlund, and John Dykstra, Phil Tippett, Rick Baker, legendary production designer John Barry, and a host of others share their fascinating tales from the trenches and candid opinions of the film that would ultimately change their lives. No matter how you view the spectrum of this phenomenon, The Making of Star Wars stands as a crucial document—rich in fascination and revelation—of a genuine cinematic and cultural touchstone. |

The notion of beauty and its relationship to contemporary art is once again arousing passionate discussion and wide-spread debate among artists, writers, critics, and curators. Uncontrollable Beauty is the first anthology to capture this new wave of critical discourse, examining the role of beauty in twentieth-century art and culture in order to redefine it for a new generation of artists and writers. Encompassing three central themes: Theory, Ownership, and Practice, the thirty essays, writings, and poems explore how we define beauty, where we locate it in art, and its complex links to issues of gender, morality, and universalism. Included are works by John Ashbery, Agnes Martin, and Carter Ratcliff, as well as a conversation with Julia Kristeva and an exclusive interview with Louise Bourgeois. Anyone wanting to stay current with contemporary art criticism will find this book a stimulating selection of dialogue, debate, and philosophical insight. Contributors: John Ashbery; Louise Bourgeois; Hubert Damisch; Arthur Danto; Max Fierst; David Freedberg; Jeremy Gilbert-Rolfe; John Hejduk; Dave Hickey; James Hillman; Ariane Lopez-Huici; Kenneth Koch; Julia Kristeva; Donald Kuspit; Jaqueline Lichtenstein; Agnes Martin; Thomas McEvilley; Robert Morgan; Frank O'Hara; Carter Ratcliff; William Rubin; Meyer Schapiro; Peter Schjeldahl; David Shapiro; Robert Farris Thompson; Kirk Varnedoe; Marjorie Welish; John Yau. Uncontrollable Beauty is co-published with the School of Visual Arts as part of the Aesthetics Today series. |

Qui passe aujourd'hui devant le 26-28, rue Notre-Dame Est, à Montréal, ne peut soupçonner que cette maison a abrité, à partir de 1904 et pendant une vingtaine d'années, un célèbre atelier d'artistes dont le rôle dans la vie culturelle de l'époque se révèle d'une grande importance. Peintres, poètes, romanciers, journalistes, musiciens et comédiens ont fait de ce grenier baptisé L'Arche un point de ralliement, un cénacle multidisciplinaire, creuset d'une culture en devenir. L'histoire de L'Arche se divise en trois périodes. Il y eut d'abord le peintre et poète Émile Vézina qui accueillit en cet atelier ses confrères Marc-Aurèle Fortin, Henri et Adrien Hébert, Jobson Paradis, Georges Delfosse, Edmond-Joseph Massicotte, Albert Ferland et d'autres. Puis vint le groupe littéraire la Tribu des Casoars. Animé par Roger Maillet, ce groupe comptait parmi ses adeptes et sympathisants des auteurs comme Victor Barbeau, Marcel Dugas, Philippe Panneton (Ringuet), Léo-Paul Desrosiers, Ubald Paquin, René Chopin, Édouard et Jean Chauvin, Robert de Roquebrune et Philippe La Ferrière. À eux se joignirent les musiciens Léo-Pol Morin, Georges-Émile Tanguay, Émile Taranto, Rodolphe Mathieu, Placide Morency, chanteur, son frère Odilon, marchand de tableaux, les comédiens Paul Coutlée, Armand Leclaire et leurs troupes. Enfin, les derniers occupants de L'Arche furent les peintres de la Montée Saint-Michel, groupe informel dont le chef de file était Ernest Aubin, suivi de ses deux comparses, Élise Martel et Joseph Jutras. Leurs compagnons se nommaient Jean-Onésime Legault, Onésime-Aimé Léger, Jean-Paul Pépin, Narcisse Poirier et Joseph-Octave Proulx. Bref, toute une jeunesse montréalaise dont les débats annonçaient la modernité. |

In one of the most unique memoirs of addiction ever published, Mötley Crüe's Nikki Sixx shares mesmerizing diary entries from the year he spiraled out of control in a haze of heroin and cocaine, presented alongside riveting commentary from people who were there at the time, and from Nikki himself. When Mötley Crüe was at the height of its fame, there wasn't any drug Nikki Sixx wouldn't do. He spent days -- sometimes alone, sometimes with other addicts, friends, and lovers -- in a coke and heroin-fueled daze. The highs were high, and Nikki's journal entries reveal some euphoria and joy. But the lows were lower, often ending with Nikki in his closet, surrounded by drug paraphernalia and wrapped in paranoid delusions. Here, Nikki shares those diary entries -- some poetic, some scatterbrained, some bizarre -- and reflects on that time. Joining him are Tommy Lee, Vince Neil, Mick Mars, Slash, Rick Nielsen, Bob Rock, and a host of ex-managers, ex-lovers, and more. Brutally honest, utterly riveting, and shockingly moving, The Heroin Diaries follows Nikki during the year he plunged to rock bottom -- and his courageous decision to pick himself up and start living again. |
