Dolley Madison Saves George Washington
by Don BrownDolley was a farm girl who became a fine first lady when she married James Madison. She wore beautiful dresses, decorated her home, and threw lavish parties. Everyone talked about Dolley, and everyone loved her, too. Then war arrived at her doorstep, and Dolley had to meet challenges greater than she’d ever known. So Dolley did one thing she thought might make a difference: she saved George Washington. Not the man himself, but a portrait of him, which would surely have been destroyed by English soldiers. Don Brown once again deftly tells a little known story about a woman who made a significant contribution to American history.

Dolls! Dolls! Dolls!: Deep Inside Valley of the Dolls, the Most Beloved Bad Book and Movie of All Time
by Stephen Rebello"A blissful treasure trove of gossipy insider details that Dolls fans will swiftly devour."--Kirkus ReviewsThe unbelievable-but-true, inside story of Jacqueline Susann's pop culture icon Valley of the Dolls--the landmark novel and publishing phenomenon, the infamous smash hit film ("the best worst movie ever made"), and Dolls's thriving legacy todaySince its publication in 1966, Jacqueline Susann's Valley of the Dolls has reigned as one of the most influential and beloved pieces of commercial fiction. Selling over thirty-one million copies worldwide, it revolutionized overnight the way books got sold, thanks to the tireless and canny self-promoting Susann. It also generated endless speculation about the author's real-life models for its larger-than-life characters. Turned in 1967 into an international box-office sensation and morphing into a much-beloved cult film, its influence endures today in everything from films and TV shows to fashion and cosmetics tributes and tie-ins. Susann's compulsive readable exposé of three female friends finding success in New York City and Hollywood was a scandalous eye-opener for its candid treatment of sex, naked ambition, ageism, and pill-popping, and the big screen version was one of the most-seen and talked-about movies of the time.Dolls! Dolls! Dolls! digs deep into the creation of that hugely successful film--a journey nearly as cut-throat, sexually-charged, tragic, and revelatory as Susann's novel itself--and uncovers how the movie has become a cherished, widely imitated camp classic, thanks to its over-the-top performances, endlessly quotable absurd dialogue, outré costumes and hairdos, despite the high aspirations, money, and talent lavished on it. Screenwriter-journalist-film historian Stephen Rebello has conducted archival research and new interviews to draw back the velvet curtain on the behind-the-scenes intrigue, feuds and machinations that marked the film's production. In doing so, he unveils a rich, detailed history of fast-changing, late 1960s Hollywood, on screen and off.

Dolor y gloria
by Pedro AlmodóvarLa película más personal de Pedro Almodóvar. El libro más repleto de extras. Salvador Mallo es un veterano director de cine aquejado de múltiples dolencias, pero el peor de sus males es la incapacidad para seguir rodando. La mezcla de medicamentos y drogas hace que Salvador pase la mayor parte del día postrado. Este estado de duermevela le traslada a una época de su vida que nunca visitó como narrador: su infancia en los años sesenta, cuando emigró con sus padres a un pueblo de Valencia en busca de prosperidad. También se le vuelve a aparecer su primer amor adulto, ya en el Madrid de los ochenta, y el dolor que supuso la ruptura. Salvador se refugia en la escritura como única terapia para olvidar lo inolvidable. Ese ejercicio lo devuelve al temprano descubrimiento del cine, cuando las películas se proyectaban sobre un muro encalado, al aire libre, con olor a pis, a jazmín y a brisa de verano. De nuevo, descubrirá que el cine puede ser su única salvación frente al dolor, la ausencia y el vacío. Esta edición contiene, además del guion original de la película (que incluye escenas que no se vieron en el cine), un sustancioso apartado de comentarios sobre su proceso creativo y el rodaje, firmado por el propio Almodóvar, y un precioso epílogo de Gustavo Martín Garzo. Además, está profusamente ilustrada a todo color con fotografías y fragmentos del storyboard. Un libro perfecto para todos los amantes del cine y la cultura.

Domestic Labor in Twenty-First Century Latin American Cinema
by Elizabeth Osborne Sofía Ruiz-AlfaroThis volume explores the character of the domestic worker in twenty-first century Latin American cinema and analyzes how recent filmic representations of the housemaid question the marginalization of domestic servants, in particular women, by making them the center of their narratives, their families, and society. The essays in this book posit the female domestic worker as an emergent subjectivity, a complex character who problematizes and contests the hierarchical power structures within the family dynamics and new socioeconomic orders found in contemporary Latin America. Readers will find a variety of representations across the continent as well as transnational commonalities of the cinematic figure and role of the housemaid, including the negotiation of a multilayered politics of affection in the framework of prevalent paternalism, and the complex and contradictory dynamic between private and public spaces, where domestic paid labor occupies a central role in maintaining gender, class, and ethnic inequalities.
Domesticating History: The Political Origins of America's House Museums
by Patricia WestCelebrating the lives of famous men and women, historic house museums showcase restored rooms and period furnishings, and portray in detail their former occupants' daily lives. But behind the gilded molding and curtain brocade lie the largely unknown, politically charged stories of how the homes were first established as museums. Focusing on George Washington's Mount Vernon, Louisa May Alcott's Orchard House, Thomas Jefferson's Monticello, and the Booker T. Washington National Monument, Patricia West shows how historic houses reflect less the lives and times of their famous inhabitants than the political pressures of the eras during which they were transformed into museums.
Domesticating Saints in Medieval and Early Modern Rome (The Middle Ages Series)
by Maya MaskarinecHow elite Roman families used genealogy, architecture, and the urban fabric to appropriate the city’s saints for their ownDomesticating Saints in Medieval and Early Modern Rome explores the creative efforts of some of Rome’s most prominent noble families to weave themselves into Rome’s Christian past. Maya Maskarinec shows how, from late antiquity to early modernity, elite Roman families used genealogy, architecture, and the urban fabric to appropriate the city’s saints for their own, eventually claiming them as ancestors.Over the course of the Middle Ages, there developed a pronounced sense that churches and their saints belonged to specific regions, neighborhoods, and even families. These associations, coupled with a resurgent interest in Rome’s Christian antiquity as well as in noble lineages, enabled Roman families to “domesticate” the city’s saints and dominate the urban landscape and its politics into the early modern era. These families cultivated saintly genealogies and saintly topologies (exploiting, for example, the increasingly prolific identification of churches as the former residences of early Christian and late antique saints), cementing presumed connections between place, descent, and moral worth.Drawing from sources spanning the fourth to the late sixteenth century, Maskarinec brings into conversation saints’ lives, documentary evidence, family genealogies, monumental and domestic architecture, and medieval and early modern guidebooks, sources not often studied together. Bridging the divide between secular and sacred histories of Rome, Domesticating Saints in Medieval and Early Modern Rome repositions these materials within a new story, of how Romans made the city’s classical and Christian past their own and thereby empowered and immortalized their families.

Dominando Drones: O Guia Básico para Começar a Ganhar Dinheiro com Drones
by Adidas WilsonEstas informações são a razão pela qual escrevi este livro. De acordo com minhas pesquisas, o ano de 2015 será marcante para os drones. Agora é a hora de empreender para ganhar dinheiro com estes dispositivos. Drones comerciais e seus serviços devem se tornar uma indústria multibilionária na próxima década, de acordo com um novo relatório da empresa de inteligência de mercado Tractica. O relatório diz que, em 2017, a receita de drones deve totalizar US$ 792 milhões - principalmente com vendas de hardware. Até 2025, a Tractica prevê que o mercado aumentará para US$ 12,6 bilhões, com dois terços da receita proveniente de serviços baseados em drones e não de hardware. "Várias indústrias importantes estão vendo futuro na utilização de drones para uso comercial", diz Manoj Sahi, analista de pesquisa da Tractica. Ele citou a mídia, o setor imobiliário e a assistência a desastres como apenas alguns dos setores que poderiam usar serviços habilitados para drones. O relatório afirma que os avanços tecnológicos, as economias de escala, os aplicativos baseados em nuvem e o desejo de romper com o mercado contribuirão para o sucesso comercial dos drones nos próximos anos.

Dominican Women and Renaissance Art: The Convent of San Domenico of Pisa (Women and Gender in the Early Modern World)
by Ann RobertsStarting from an inventory and other documents, Ann Roberts has identified some 30 works of art that originated from the convent of San Domenico of Pisa. She here examines those objects commissioned for and made by the nuns during the fifteenth century; some of the objects included have never before been published. One of her goals in this study is to bring into the discussion of Renaissance art a body of images that have been previously overlooked, because they come from a non-Florentine context and because they do not fit modern notions of the "development" of Renaissance style. She also analyzes the function of the images - social as well as religious - within the context of a female Dominican convent. Finally, she offers descriptions of and documentation for the process of patronage as it was practiced by cloistered women, and the making of art in such enclosures. The author presents a catalogue of works, which gives basic data and bibliography for the objects described in the text. Roberts offers other valuable resources in the appendices, including unpublished C19th inventories of the objects in the convent at various moments, documents regarding the commission of works of art for the convent, letters written by the nuns, a list of the Prioresses of San Domenico, lists of nuns at different points in the fifteenth and early sixteenth century, and a list of the relics owned by the convent in the sixteenth century. Roberts firmly grounds her interpretation in the values of the Order to which the nuns belonged, and in the political and social concerns of their city.
