Jean Cocteau labeled this revolutionary work a pastorale of the prehistoric world at its premiere in Paris in 1913, when interest in primitivism was at its zenith among the avant-garde. These Scenes of Pagan Russia did indeed inspire primitive reactions among their opening night audience, who were so vociferous in their protests that the dancers could scarcely hear the music. Yet this powerful work, with its novel rhythms and hitherto unheard-of chordal combinations and orchestral effects would change forever the elements of musical language and exert an enormous influence on three generations of composers. Once a scandal, it is now perhaps the most famous orchestral work of the twentieth century. It is reprinted here from the full-score Russian edition published in 1965. Like Stravinsky's scores for The Firebird and Petrushka, The Rite of Spring was commissioned by Serge Diaghilev for the Ballets Russes. Choreographed by Nijinsky, it is still a favorite of ballet audiences, and ...

The Vietnam war is over, halted overnight by the rise of the living, hungry dead, but for CIA Special Agent Declan Rule, another war has just begun. From the ruins of devastated US firebase Aries, Rule and his highly trained German Shepherd companion, Nero, journey deep into the humid, blood-soaked hell of Cambodia in search of a madman named Morneau. This man, a demented neurosurgeon bent on the creation of a hard-wired army of the weaponized, radio-controlled undead, has signed his own death warrant, surgically altering Rule's only son and aiming him like a human bullet at the allied lines. Through battle, torture, and blood, the man without mercy will face the man without conscience...and all the rules of war will be broken! Over Saigon, US Army Private Kuen Yam and his ragged band of survivors struggle to keep their grip on sanity and humanity as their wounded plane forces them back into the grip of the dead. And in New Jersey, USA, Joe and Faye Kuen take a boat ri...

Global governance is here--but not where most people think. This book presents the far-reaching argument that not only should we have a new world order but that we already do. Anne-Marie Slaughter asks us to completely rethink how we view the political world. It's not a collection of nation states that communicate through presidents, prime ministers, foreign ministers, and the United Nations. Nor is it a clique of NGOs. It is governance through a complex global web of "government networks." Slaughter provides the most compelling and authoritative description to date of a world in which government officials--police investigators, financial regulators, even judges and legislators--exchange information and coordinate activity across national borders to tackle crime, terrorism, and the routine daily grind of international interactions. National and international judges and regulators can also work closely together to enforce international agreements more effectively than ever...

In der Welt der Zwedschgermännla gehört Jakob Bemmerlein zu den Göttern: Er erschafft sie und bietet sie auf dem Christkindlesmarkt in Nürnberg feil.
