William Morris

Casa editrice: Good Press

Sinossi

In "The Art and Craft of Printing," William Morris meticulously details the intricate processes and philosophies underpinning the print-making movement of the late 19th century. This work serves as both a practical guide and a manifesto for a return to artisanal craftsmanship amidst the prevalent industrialization of the time. Morris, known for his ornate style and commitment to aesthetic beauty, weaves together historical context, technical instruction, and philosophical reflections, demonstrating the profound relationship between art and utility. His passionate advocacy for high-quality design and production reflects the ideals of the Arts and Crafts Movement, challenging the notion of mass production by emphasizing individuality and craftsmanship. William Morris, a leading figure in the Arts and Crafts Movement, was deeply influenced by his background in medieval art and literature, alongside his experiences in socialism and environmentalism. His frustration with the soullessness of industrial society propelled him to explore the intersection of art, labor, and social reform. Morris'Äôs belief in the intrinsic value of handmade objects is poignantly articulated in this work, inviting readers to reconsider the role of art in their everyday lives. This book is highly recommended for anyone interested in the disciplines of art, design, and history. Morris'Äôs eloquent prose and inspiring vision make it a critical read for artists, students, and scholars alike, encouraging a deeper appreciation for the beauty of handmade crafts and the cultural significance of printing.

Usual Suspects The - The...

Film Trivia Metaverse

THE USUAL SUSPECTS 
THE ULTIMATE TRIVIA COLLECTION 
  
FROM THE MOVIE DIRECTED BY BRYAN SINGER 
  
CREATED BY FILM TRIVIA METAVERSE 
  
ABOUT THE FILM 
The Usual Suspects is a 1995 neo-noir thriller directed by Bryan Singer. The film follows the interrogation of Roger "Verbal" Kint, a small-time con artist, after a violent heist on a docked ship leaves multiple criminals dead. Kint narrates the story of how he and his crew were manipulated by a mysterious and legendary crime lord, Keyser Söze. As the investigation unfolds, the narrative is built through flashbacks, unreliable narration, and intricate plot twists. The movie explores themes of deception, criminal manipulation, and the blurred lines between truth and lies, keeping viewers on edge until the final moments. 
  
TRIVIA SAMPLES: 
  
“Christopher McQuarrie had previously worked for a detective agency, and this influenced the depiction of criminals and law enforcement officials in the script.” 
  
“Benicio Del Toro's bizarre dialect in the film was reportedly so unintelligible that during one scene, Stephen Baldwin actually forgot his cue due to being unable to understand what Del Toro had said.” 
  
“The part of Verbal Kint was always intended for actor Kevin Spacey.” 
  
“The idea for this movie started only with the concept of a movie poster of five men in a lineup.” 
  
“All the actors were encouraged to ad lib perplexed reactions to Benicio Del Toro's oddball vocal stylings.”

Saki's Plays

Saki Saki

The undisputed master of the short story, Saki's name is synonymous with brilliant writing that satirises Edwardian Society, and his plays were no exception. In his only full-length play, 'The Watched Pot', Trevor Bavvel, sole heir to a country estate, is in want of a wife, but must operate under the strict attention of his miserly mother Hortensia. 
Although wildly neglected today, Saki's plays met with widespread acclaim in his day, and he was even compared favourably with the great Oscar Wilde. This complete edition of Saki's plays – the first complete edition ever published – demonstrates the great writer's prowess as a playwright, and sparkles with the same wit as the short stories that have enchanted generations of readers.

How To Deal With Bed Bugs - A...

Owen Jones

Bed bugs have been making a valiant comeback in the West since the end of the Second World War, and are now firmly entrenched in our cities. So much so, that every Western hotel has to take special precautions costing an aggregated sum of billions of dollars a year, which is passed on to us, the paying guest. 
It is long past the time when everyone should take this subject seriously, so, in that vein, I hope that you will find the information below helpful, useful and profitable. 
The advice in this ebook on how to deal with bed bugs and related subjects is organised into 18 chapters of about 500-600 words each. I have also included the scientific classification for clarity and the lyrics of two popular songs for the sake of levity. 
As an added bonus, I am granting you permission to use the content on your own website or in your own blogs and newsletter, although it is better if you rewrite them in your own words first.
