Throughout her nearly sixty-year career, acclaimed poet Eavan Boland came to be known for her exquisite ability to weave myth, history, and the life of an ordinary woman into mesmerizing poetry. She was an essential voice in both feminist and Irish literature, praised for her "edgy precision, an uncanny sympathy and warmth, an unsettling sense of history" (J. D. McClatchy). Her final volume, The Historians, is the culmination of her signature themes, exploring the ways in which the hidden, sometimes all-but-erased stories of women's lives can powerfully revise our sense of the past. Two women burning letters in a back garden. A poet who died too young. A mother's parable to her daughter. Boland listens to women who have long had no agency in the way their stories were told; in the title poem, she writes: "Say the word history: I see / your mother, mine. / ... / Their hands are full of words." Addressing Irish suffragettes in the final poem, Boland promises: "We will not leave you behind," a promise that animates each poem in this radiant collection. These extraordinary, intimate narratives cling to the future through memory, anger, and love in ways that rebuke the official record we call history.

The young couple. The first time. Naughty flirting. The secret, forbidden meeting. The young student and his teacher. The older gentleman and the innocent virgin. You, Me, and a Friend. This is a collection of erotic short stories from Cupido. The collection contains following short stories: "Do you think Rune wants to? He said 'Hello gorgeous!' when he came in. I am sooo hoorny...," she says, only half joking. I let what she says hang in the air while I set to thinking. Her tigerish look is lazily challenging now, her lips swollen and shiny. Her silver crucifix and Sunday school education are well hidden inside the collar of her long-armed, tight-fitting, spangly blouse. Her slender fingers drum impatiently on the table. Rune looks over at me and raises his glass of cognac. I lift mine in reply. He smiles, turning his attention to the person sitting alongside. He can't have any idea. My wife's always been uninhibited and fearless but tonight she's bubbling over with lust, dreams and forbidden fantasies that she cannot - nor wishes to - hold in check." - You, Me and My Friend by Dante

A comprehensive history of film lighting, from its earliest origins to the heyday of Hollywood dominance – and beyond. This is a book about the art of lighting, "the relevance of pictures, and the responsibility of all those who take pictures of the world and show them". In an age of constant digital snapshots, with their mercilessly artless recording of everything around us, the award-winning director and scriptwriter Richard Blank makes a compelling case for this increasingly neglected art, and for sustaining "the awareness of its responsibility". In Film & Light, Richard Blank draws on examples from a century of pioneering filmmakers – from Griffith to Buñuel, Ophüls to Altman, Rossellini to Scorsese, Eisenstein to Wong Kar-Wai – to trace the historical development of lighting technology, analyse the changing "rules" and techniques of film lighting, and define the key terms surrounding the technical innovations of its art. The close attention he brings to bear on these modern masters – from DeMille to De Sica to Lars von Trier, Niblo to Murnau to Siodmark, via Maurice Tourneur and Fritz Lang, Charlie Chaplin and Orson Welles – brilliantly illuminates the hidden art of these past masters, as well as the troubled social context by which they each variously came to shine.

This book has the research objective to evaluate the shareholders' value and performance generated by the restructuring methods - Spin-Offs and Carve-Outs - and to distinguish the better-off restructuring among these two methods in case of Siemens AG's endeavor. In literature analysis, the author came to the conclusion that the shareholders' value is created in both the cases. So, is the result in case of Siemens AG's endeavor also took place. Analyzing of the balance sheet and income statement with the various methods devised by the scholar, the author found that the monetary value created by carve-outs to the shareholders were greater in case of Siemens AG's endeavor of both carve-outs and spin-offs of its subsidiary Infineon Technologies AG. After analyzing the performance of Infineon Technologies AG in subsequent years after carve-outs, it can be implicitly said that the value created by carve-outs as compared to spin-offs have generated higher shareholders' value to the shareholders of Siemens as Infineon Technologies AG experienced losses which had been hidden in the Siemens AG's performance if carve-outs would not have been performed immediately after the spin-offs was done. So, at the conclusion the author would give credit to carve-outs as compare to spin-offs in the maximization of shareholders' value in case of spin-offs and carve-outs conducted by Siemens AG.
