DOWNLOAD EBOOKIdeologies of Theory, updated and available for the first time in a single volume, brings together theoretical essays that span Fredric Jameson’s long career as a critic. They chart a body of work suspended by the twin poles of literary scholarship and political history, occupying a space vibrant with the tension between critical exegesis and the Marxist intellectual tradition. Jameson’s work pushes out the boundaries of the text, making evident the interaction between literature and the disciplines of psychoanalysis, philosophy and cultural theory, all of which are shown to be inseparable from their ideological milieu. The essays in this volume track a shift from ideological analysis to the phenomenology of everyday life, and constitute a rigorous and passionate argument for the necessity of theory as the simultaneous critique of empiricism and idealist philosophy.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKFashion and style icon Jeanne Beker delivers an uplifting and inspiring memoir that walks us through a wardrobe of memory, one article of clothing at a time. Jeanne Beker’s name is synonymous with style and grace in fashion. Recognized by many as the beloved host of Fashion Television and The New Music, Jeanne has spent an entire career interviewing celebrities and uncovering their most private selves. Now, in Heart on My Sleeve, Jeanne reveals who she is in an all-new way. This is not just a memoir but a wardrobe of memory. Jeanne walks us through her recollections of specific pieces of clothing and jewelry, precious items that have made an indelible impact on her. She invites readers to think more deeply about how what we wear—whether it’s a thrift-store find or high-end couture—acts as a touchstone to our most treasured recollections, reminding us of who we once were or of loved ones we hold dear. With Jeanne as our style guide, we get up-close and personal with a star-studded cast, including Paul McCartney, Madonna, Karl Lagerfeld, Kate Moss, Oscar de la Renta, Beyoncé, and Keith Richards. But equally important, Jeanne introduces us to the family members and loved ones who form her closest entourage—including her wise Yiddish mother and her industrious father, both Holocaust survivors; her childhood neighbor Mrs. Jaskolka, a style maven ahead of her time; her two trailblazing daughters; and her many warm and exuberant friends who have seen her through the best and worst of times. Jeanne proves that a life lived with style and substance is always in fashion. Bold, colorful, and authentic, this is Jeanne Beker at her very best and brightest.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKVilleneuve is still racing across our imaginations. Courage, fury and heart-rending tenderness. Gilles Villeneuve died on 8 May 1982 on the Zolder track, in Belgium. Since then thirty-five years have passed. A long time, or the blink of an eye, if we come to terms with the intensity of memories, with the colours of passion. Above all, red, the red of his Ferraris, stumbled upon by chance and ultimately brought into a firmament that amazed us, worried us, gave us absolute joy and fear. Even though he never obtained a world title, he won all our hearts. A collective emotion with a painful premonition. A true, great sports story, with a protagonist transformed into an immortal legend. Wow Gilles! covers, year after year, the "reckless" life of Gilles Villeneuve through the photographs of Ercole Colombo and texts by Giorgio Terruzzi. The voices of these two exceptional narrators (both were eye-witnesses to the Canadian race driver's over- the-top life) guide us along a journey that begins in 1977 and ends in 1982. From his F1 debut to his tragic accident in Belgium, this spectacular photo album will allow readers to relive the romanticism of the sport that characterized those years, of which Villeneuve was a key player.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKOpera star Largo Banzini is killed by a dart from a blowgun at the end of Act One of The Golden Dragon. It’s an impossible crime, and Inspector Gilles Maintenon, who lost his wife Ann only a short time ago, has been a bit off lately. They have two thousand witnesses, all kinds of political pressure, too many people with some kind of a motive, and not enough real information. He’s also a pretty good teacher, and the bright young Constable Louis Bedard has been assigned to the case. Somebody sees something in this young man, who has enough seniority to write the sergeant’s exam. He has ideas, if only he can overcome a basic shyness. If he does well, there’s no need to go back to traffic duties and foot patrols. This is the seventh volume in The Inspector Gilles Maintenon Mystery Series.
