      Paul Gemignani is one of the titans of the modern musical theater industry. Serving as musical director for more than forty Broadway productions since 1971, his collaborations with Stephen Sondheim, Andrew Lloyd Webber, John Kander, Fred Ebb, Hal Prince, Michael Bennett, and Alan Menken have led to countless accolades for his collaborators, but due to the near invisible position of the musical director in the Broadway industry, Gemignani's story is often overlooked. GEMIGNANI seeks to not only bring the reader into the orchestra pit to learn Gemignani's story, but also to educate the reader about the crucial role a music director plays in bringing some of the most iconic musicals in Broadway history to life.Born into a second-generation Italian American family during the aftershocks of the Great Depression, Gemignani worked his way up from playing percussion in USO bands to conducting before Leonard Bernstein, all before becoming a pivotal player in the team that brought some of the most successful musicals of the late twentieth century to the stage. Sweeney Todd, Evita, Merrily We Roll Along, Sunday in the Park with George, and Into the Woods would be quite different without his key contributions, and many of the sonic markers we now associate with the postmodern musical theater can be traced to Gemignani's careful curiosity to expand the bounds of what was possible.

      Zur Wissenschaftssoziologie des disziplinären Wandels der Chemie

      Die Chemie büßt zugunsten physikalischer und lebenswissenschaftlicher Konzeptionen zunehmend an Deutungsmacht über die molekulare Welt ein. Sandra Lang untersucht, inwiefern die Ausdifferenzierung der chemischen Wissenschaften mit sich ebenfalls ausdifferenzierenden Zugriffen auf das Molekulare zusammenhängt. Anhand der vier exemplarischen Grenzfelder Materialwissenschaften, Biomedizin, Pharmazie und Quantenchemie und deren Narrative zur molekularen Eigenschaft der Chiralität veranschaulicht sie die transformative Phase der Chemie angesichts sich wandelnder Innovationsdispositive

      The Imperial Aircraft Flotilla

      The Worldwide Fundraising Campaign for the British Flying Services in the First World War

      Following Great Britain’s declaration of war on Germany on 4 August 1914, a surge of fundraising ‘patriotic’ associations emerged across the empire. The most notable campaign began in London in early 1915, known as the Imperial Aircraft Flotilla, which sought contributions for aircraft production from the British Empire. Communities that raised enough funds for an entire ‘aeroplane’ could have it named after them, with the promise that the name would transfer to a new aircraft if the original was lost. Margaret Hall explores the Imperial Aircraft Flotilla as a significant aspect of imperial history, analyzing fundraising efforts in diverse regions including Canada, Newfoundland, the Zanzibar Protectorate, Fiji, Mauritius, the Caribbean, Hong Kong, the Malay states, West Africa, Southern Rhodesia, Basutoland, Swaziland, the Union of South Africa, the Indian empire, Burma, independent Abyssinia, Siam, the Shanghai International Settlement, the British community in Argentina, Australia, and New Zealand. This detailed examination discusses the propaganda and counter-subversion roles of the Imperial Aircraft Flotilla, revealing what support for the imperial war effort indicates about contemporary national and regional identities and aspirations.
