Single Ladies

the mention of a specific social convention which is no longer valid: Eliza does not want to be thought “forward” by touching Jerome. There is also the fact that Eliza has learnt how to decant wine (no longer regarded as a skill to be taught to young ladies!) and the fact that she talks about “luncheon” (and not “lunch”)... Furthermore, the extract is all about the social divide between Eliza and Jerome, which suggests a story set at a time when upbringing and class were more of a barrier to relationships

into a cardboard box each time another story was finished. There was little method to my madness. Some of the pieces came to no more than a few lines, and a number of them, in particular the spoonerisms and malapropisms I was so fond of, were just a single phrase. Chilled greaseburger instead of grilled cheeseburger, for example, which came out of my mouth sometime during my junior year of high school, or the unintentionally profound, quasi-mystical utterance I delivered to Edith while we were engaged

the Indians: savages with strange attire and bellicose attitude. Already we see that the camera is behind the Indians, so the viewer sees the same view as the Indians, therefore sharing their vision. They are six Indian warriors looking at one single man in the middle. In the middle ground… Je continue l’exposé seul en préparant mes notes. Je décris le personnage, sa position face à la caméra, son mouvement, le cheval, je mets en avant sa vulnérabilité. L’opposition entre l’homme, seul et sans

the self that generates emotion (the way many contemporary scientists and pop psychologists propose). Rather, an emotion is created by how an event relates to one’s strivings. Consequently, there can be no single indicator of an emotion (such as a facial expression), nor can there be a single way of behaving characteristic of an emotion (such as aggression in anger). Virtually any event can produce a given emotion, depending on the relational and motivational context, and virtually any response or

Cotton Malone, whose life is shattered when he receives an anonymous note carrying an unfamiliar Web address. Logging on, he sees Cassiopeia Vitt, a woman who's saved his life more than once, being tortured at the hands of a mysterious man who has a single demand: Bring me the artifact she's asked you to keep safe. The only problem is, Malone doesn't have a clue what the man is talking about, since Cassiopeia has left nothing with him. So begins Malone's most harrowing adventure to date, one that offers

moment, in complaisance to any writer whatsoever. Of all speculative errors, those, which regard religion, are the most excusable in compositions of genius; nor is it ever permitted to judge of the civility or wisdom of any people, or even of single persons, by the grossness or refinement of their theological principles. The same good sense, that directs men in the ordinary occurrences of life, is not hearkened to in religious matters, which are supposed to be placed altogether above the cognizance

as a person. Actually, the media are the tools that allow the star image to be accessible to the audience. Television and cinema have the power to standardize the star image because it limited the star to the part she is playing and thus to one and single image. Moreover, in order to be faithful to the audience’s expectancy, stars’ performances tended to be always the same (Izod, 1988: 43-45). But the star is not limited to appear in just television and films. The magazines, for instance, offer a static

Pierre Justo 72% but Liu Xiang at 68% is now very close. Liu even managed for the first time to attract more votes than Yao in Tianjin (45% vs 41%). The future competition looks tense. Noticeably, when the question of popularity is left to the ladies, Liu Xiang almost pips Yao Ming at the post, scoring a strong 53% overall ranking among females that comes close to Yao Ming’s 56%. China’s females care less for soccer stars, it would appear, with Beckham in fifth place with a much weaker 16%. We

We also completed the implementation of our central distribution backbone in Fribourg, which now hosts all our Swiss-based watch and jewellery businesses on a single, integrated IT system.
