Although he was a visual stylist who once referred to actors as cattle, Alfred Hitchcock also had a remarkable talent for innovative and creative casting choices. The director launched the careers of several actors and completely changed the trajectory of others, many of whom created some of the most iconic screen performances in history. However, Hitchcock’s ability to fit his leading men and women into just the right parts has been a largely overlooked aspect of his filmmaking skills.

Free Download Peter Green, "From Ikaria to the Stars: Classical Mythification, Ancient and Modern"
English | ISBN: 0292726031 | 2004 | 348 pages | AZW3 | 766 KB
"I hadn’t, till I really started digging, gauged the fierce intensity of the need for myth in the human psyche, of any age, or sensed the variety of motives dictating that need," writes Peter Green in the introduction to this wide-ranging collection of essays on classical mythology and the mythic experience. Using the need for myth as the starting point for exploring a number of topics in Greek mythology and history, Green advances new ideas about why the human urge to make myths persists across the millennia and why the borderland between mythology and history can sometimes be hard to map.

Tupac Shakur spent much of his brief 25 years living in tough inner-city neighborhoods in New York, Maryland, and California.

Free Download Achim Weiss, Tom G. Abel, Vanessa Hill, "The First Stars: Proceedings of the MPA/ESO Workshop Held at Garching, Germany, 4-6 August 1999 (ESO Astrophysics Symposia)"
English | 2000 | pages: 351 | ISBN: 3540672222, 3662309416 | PDF | 23,0 mb
Neither the formation process of "The First Stars" nor their existence in the present universe is known with any certainty. The authors of this volume address all open questions presenting an abundance of interesting data at the same time as giving a relatively exhaustive overview of our present-day knowledge. This covers research from spectroscopic observations, stellar evolutions, nucleosynthesis, structure and galaxy formation. The contributions shed new light on past views, often questioning traditional interpretations. Dealing with problems at the crossroads of cosmology, star formation and chemical evolution in stars, the book addresses astrophysicists and researchers, as well as graduate students. However, it should also be of interest to nuclear physicists and astrochemists.
