Sinopse

Monologue Usage Techniques explores the power of the monologue in dramatic storytelling, focusing on how these speeches reveal character depth and drive narrative momentum. This book uniquely bridges language arts and performing arts, offering insights applicable to actors, playwrights, and even those in public speaking. Monologues are shown to be more than just speeches; they are concentrated bursts of revelation.

 
The book delves into revealing internal conflict through monologues, highlighting how carefully chosen words and subtext can expose a character's inner turmoil. It also analyzes how monologues deliver crucial backstory, seamlessly weaving it into the character's present emotional state. Understanding these techniques enhances the theatrical experience and builds compelling characters.

 
Structured in three parts, the book begins with fundamental elements of monologue construction, then explores specific techniques for achieving dramatic goals like revealing backstory. Case studies and exercises help readers hone their skills, culminating in how monologues can be used in creative contexts. This approach makes the book a pragmatic guide for mastering monologue construction and performance.

Hicky's Bengal Gazette - The...

Andrew Otis

Hicky's Bengal Gazette is the story of India's first newspaper and its pivotal role in exposing the corruption of the British imperialist project.The story opens in late-eighteenth century Calcutta. The British are well-ensconced in Bengal but the Raj has yet to emerge. Irishman, James August Hicky, arrives in Calcutta as a surgeon's mate, seeking his fame and fortune. He soon finds himself in debtors' prison, however, and it's while in jail that he first acquires the printing press that sets him on a collision course with the British East India Company. 
 
Sensing a business opportunity, Hicky established the first newspaper in South Asia but quickly became committed to the freedom of the press at great personal cost. His Gazette exposed corruption in the East India Company and embezzlement in the Christian Church, making himself two powerful enemies in the process: Johann Zacharias Kiernander, an influential missionary and Warren Hastings, the Governor General. Staunchly anti-war and anti-colonialist, Hicky's Bengal Gazette was known for its provocative content. Trials, prison time, and assassination attempts follow before Hicky dies mysteriously on a boat to China. His legacy in India endures to this day through the vibrant, modern media landscape.

Russian Made Easy - Beginner -...

Lingo Wave

We broke our new series on learning Russian down into different learning stages. Start with the "Lower Beginner" books followed by the "Beginner" and "Upper Beginner" books. Next, progress to the "Intermediate" series, then test and reinforce your knowledge with the "Conversations" series.
This audiobook is divided into units. While it provides different learning patterns and accommodates various needs, this audiobook focuses on helping you improve your ability to understand, speak, and memorise Russian.
In Unit 1 you will hear Russian decoded with each syllable spoken very slowly and clearly with repetition. Immediately before each sentence is spoken, you will hear the translation, so you will always understand what is being said.
Unit 2 focuses solely on increasing your listening ability, which will improve your abilities to engage in dialogue with a native Russian speaker. This chapter requires you to listen very carefully to nuances in the language.
By Unit 3 you will already notice progress in your abilities to speak and understand Russian. The spoken translation is followed by two repetitions in Russian at a completely natural speed. While you are learning to process naturally spoken Russian, Units 3 and 4 will help you memorise new vocabulary and full sentences.
In Unit 5 you can test yourself on how much you have learned. If you are having difficulties, we suggest you revisit the listening, speaking, or memorisation section of Units 1, 2 3 or 4, according to what you need more help with.
Topics covered in this book:
1. Asking about family
2. Asking about relationship status
3. Expressing frequency
4. Talking about spare time activities and hobbies
5. Using quantifiers/determiners
6. Talking about preference
