tilføjet af alibrarian. Harvard Book Store: Howard Zinn, Mike Konopacki (april 24 kl. 18:00) Howard Zinn læser fra People's History of the United States: 1492 to Present.; Mike Konopacki. Harvard Book Store is excited to host historian HOWARD ZINN and cartoonist MIKE KONOPACKI as they present their graphic adaptation of Zinn's bestselling grassroots history book, A People's History of the United States.
Since its landmark publication in 1980, A People’s History of the United States ... (mere)has had six new editions, sold more than 1.7 million copies, become required classroom reading throughout the country, and been turned into an acclaimed play. More than a successful book, A People’s History triggered new thought in the way history is told, displacing the official versions with their emphasis on great men in high places to chronicle events as they were lived, from the bottom up.
Now Howard Zinn, historian Paul Buhle, and cartoonist Mike Konopacki have collaborated to retell, in vibrant comics form, a most immediate and relevant chapter of A People’s History: the centuries-long story of America’s actions in the world. Narrated by Zinn, this version opens with the events of 9/11 and then jumps back to explore the cycles of U.S. expansionism from Wounded Knee to Iraq, stopping along the way at World War I, Central America, Vietnam, and the Iranian revolution. Sted for begivenheden: Brattle Theatre (40 Brattle Street, Cambridge)

Hvad?Sp.: Hvad betyder dette/hvorfor er det nødvendigt? Sv.: Da LibraryThing trækker på mange forskellige biblioteker, kan en enkelt forfatter optræde med forskellige navne. "Også kendt som" lader LibraryThing-brugere kombinere en forfatters forskellige navnevariationer på en nem måde, så samlingerne matcher og alting kan forløbe uden problemer. Sp.: Kan jeg kombinere med en forfatter der ikke er foreslået ovenfor? Sv.: Ja, det kan du godt. Sp.: Jeg ved at to navne er forskellige forfattere, men en eller anden idiot bliver ved med at kombinere dem. Kan jeg fjerne et navn fra listen over mulige kombinationer? Sv.: Ja, det kan du godt. Kig op! Alt i "Kombiner med..." afsnittet har nu et "kombiner aldrig" link. Brug denne funktion med omtanke. "Soren Kirkegård" ser muligvis åndsvagt ud, men stavefejl skal alligevel kombineres. "Søren Kierkegaard" og "H.C. Andersen" skal ikke. Sp.: Hvilke forfattere er allerede blevet dømt til "kombiner aldrig" med denne forfatter? Sv.: Ingen forfattere. Sp.: Jeg er den omtalte idiot og jeg har ret! Sv.: Tag det op i Combiners gruppen.Sp.: Hvad hvis et navn i virkeligheden er to forskellige forfattere? Sv.: We're working on a solution, but if you want you can post a brief disambiguation notice in the Common Knowledge section. Bliv medlem hvis du vil gøre dette. Er det dig?Hvis du er forfatter, så overvej at blive officiel LibraryThing-forfatter. Interessante forfatterlinks |
