Professionals In Western Film And Fiction

by Kenneth E. Hall, Professionals In Western Film And Fiction Books available in PDF, EPUB, Mobi Format. Download Professionals In Western Film And Fiction books,  In American Westerns, the main characters are most often gunfighters, lawmen, ranchers and dancehall girls. Civil professionals such as doctors, engineers and journalists have been given far less representation, usually appearing as background characters in most films and fiction. In Westerns about the 1910 Mexican Revolution, however, civil professionals also feature prominently in the narrative, often as members of the intelligentsia—an important force in Mexican politics. This book compares the roles of civil professionals in most American Westerns to those in films on the 1910 Mexican Revolution. Included are studies on the Santiago Toole novels by Richard Wheeler, Strange Lady in Town with Greer Garson and La sombra del Caudillo by Martín Luis Guzmán.

Der Gute Banker

by Paul Murray, Der Gute Banker Books available in PDF, EPUB, Mobi Format. Download Der Gute Banker books, Hat Claude Martingale gehofft, er könne seinem Leben als Banker durch seinen Umzug von Paris nach Dublin die ersehnte Wende geben? Sein neuer Job in der aufstrebenden Bank von Torabundo raubt ihm jedenfalls schnell jegliche Illusion. Auch hier verbringt er, wie alle seine Kollegen, seine Tage und Nächte einzig im Dienste des Geldes. In diese lähmende Eintönigkeit platzt der Schriftsteller Paul, der, auf der Suche nach neuem Stoff, Claude zu seinem modernen Jedermann erkoren hat, zum Helden seines künftigen literarischen Meisterwerks. Unter Pauls höchst erfindungsreichem Einfluss wird Claudes Leben tatsächlich aufregender, besonders als die schöne griechische Kellnerin Ariadne ins Geschehen tritt. Doch Paul treibt ein doppeltes Spiel, und auch die Bank von Torabundo erweist sich als weniger ehrenwert als erhofft: zwielichtige Übernahmen, dubioser Derivatehandel und eine neue Unternehmensstrategie, die sich »kontraintuitives Handeln« nennt – kann das alles gut gehen?
