Tony Robinson Reihenfolge der Bücher

Yi Seong-gye (1335-1408) began life as an obscure warrior of Korea’s borderlands, but rose to overthrow the 500-year Goryeo dynasty and become King Taejo, who founded the 518-year Joseon dynasty, Korea’s final royal lineage and the longest lasting Confucian dynasty in history. King Taejo’s momentous life intersected with watershed East Asian developments: the collapse of the Mongol Empire in Korea, the rise of China’s brilliant Ming dynasty, the pacification of massive Japanese pirating operations, and the rise of Asia’s most thoroughly realized Confucian society in Joseon. This biography tells the tale, ending with the tragic descent of King Taejo‘s own family into fratricide and grief.

The Worst Jobs in History takes you back to the days when being a kid was no excuse for getting out of hard labour. This book tells the stories of all the children whose work fed the nation, kept trains running, and put clothes on everyone's backs, over the last few hundred years of Britain's history. No longer will you have to listen to your parents, grandparents, uncles, neighbours, and random old people in the Co-op telling you how much harder they had it in their young day. Next time you find yourself in that situation, ask them if they were a jigger-turner or a turnip-picker in their young day. No? An orderly boy, perhaps? A stepper? Maybe they spent their weekends making matchboxes? Still no? Then they have no idea about the real meaning of hard work. Tony Robinson takes you on a guided tour through all the lousiest places for a kid to work. With profiles and testimonies of real kids in rotten jobs, this book will tell you things you probably didn't want to know about the back-breaking, puke-inducing bits of being a child in the past.

Der Gehörbildung, wie sie heute an Musikhochschulen und Universitäten unterrichtet wird, spricht man oft zu Recht den Bezug zum konkreten Werk ab. Hier setzt die neue zweibändige Hörbildungsschule von Ulrich Kaiser an, die ausschließlich mit - mehr als 1400 - authentischen Beispielen aus der Musik des 15. bis 20. Jahrhunderts arbeitet. Vom Tonsatz und der Notentextanalyse ausgehend, bietet der Lehrgang historisch-satztechnische und systematische Verständnishilfen, die es den Studierenden ermöglichen, musikalische Einzelphänomene zu immer größeren Einheiten zusammenzufassen. Die jedem Band beigegebene CD erleichtert die Erfassung und Sicherung der einzelnen methodischen Schritte. Ein Einsatz von Kaisers Schule empfiehlt sich lehrgangsbegleitend im Gehörbildungsunterricht, aber auch in den Fächern Satzlehre, Analyse, Improvisation und Formenlehre. Auch für das Selbststudium ist sie geeignet. In jedem Fall garantiert sie einen abwechslungsreichen und historisch differenzierten Zugang zu allen Aspekten der Gehörbildung.
