The Spanish Civil War was a landmark conflict of the twentieth century with deep international, political, and cultural resonance. Even given its impact, sustained interest in the plethora of ways music was employed during the era is a much more recent development. Music, Propaganda and the Spanish Civil War explores the international dimensions of musical propaganda during the time period. Through close examinations of a wide range of works, styles, and practices-from popular and traditional to cosmopolitan and modernist-this volume demonstrates the crucial role of radio, cinema, and other emerging sound technologies in propaganda and diplomatic efforts by Republicans as well as Nationalists. Through extensive coverage of musical genres that have previously received little attention in Spanish Civil War scholarship (such as Nazi military music, zarzuela, and flamenco, among others), the collection investigates the significance of music and sound in propagandistic narratives of the war

Language learning research aims to describe and fully explain how and why language learning takes place, but can fall short of its stated purpose. Systematic, rigorous research is needed if the growing field of language learning is to progress methodically. This book demonstrates and fully explains such a methodology. Given that research in language acquisition yields practical pedagogical implications, it is crucial that it is rigorous and accurate.This book offers a quantitative research methodology that relies on statistical analysis in order to make inferences and conclusions about language learning. Experimental research aims to understand differences between or within groups of learners under manipulated environments. It requires strict control of conditions, enabling interpretations with a low factor of error. Aek Phakiti provides step-by-step guidelines and underlying principles, epistemology and methodology, in a book that is essential for advanced students of language acquisi

Evans thrusts her signature character Farideh into a maelstrom of devilish politics and magical intrigue that will have far-reaching implications for the future of the Forgotten Realms.As the chaos of the Sundering rages around her, young warlock Farideh faces a more personal turmoil wrought by a deal she made with a devil years ago.

Poemotion is an interactive book-object. The abstract graphical patterns in this small volume are set in motion as soon as you move the attached special foil across them: moir effects allow complex forms to develop, set circles in motion and make graphical patterns vibrate. Inspired by Seesaw, an earlier book from the publisher, in a playful and at the same time minimalist way the Japanese designer Takahiro Kurashima establishes a link to the motif of a "School of Seeing" that has long occupied a special place in the program of Lars M ller Publishers. With this book the viewer can discover how, as if by magic, figures and forms are created out of optical overlays, set in motion and then disappear again. In the era of digitalization this book shows that interactivity is also possible in the format of the analogous, bound book.

This book has been created to develop the skills listed in the Common Core Standards. The book focuses on language skills, but will also develop complementary phonics, reading, and writing skills. The
