Notable Works: “Double Fantasy” “Imagine” “Plastic Ono Band” “Some Time in New York City”
Notable Family Members: spouse Cynthia Lennon spouse Yoko Ono
Lennon’s fun-loving working-class parents married briefly and late and declined to raise their quick, sensitive, gifted son. Separated traumatically from each of them by age five, he was raised strictly (in Woolton, a Liverpool suburb) by his maternal aunt, Mimi Smith, whose husband died during Lennon’s adolescence, as did his biological mother, who had taught him to play the banjo. Such circumstances were not uncommon in the wake of World War II, but in Lennon they generated anger that he sublimated with brilliance and difficulty and an intense need for human connection. At age 21 he married the supportive, traditional Cynthia Powell, whom he divorced in 1968. At age 28 he married the independent, unconventional Yoko Ono. And much earlier, at age 16, he founded a skiffle band that evolved into the Beatles, the most important musical group of the second half of the 20th century.

The Beatles were essentially a joint venture between practical pop adept Paul McCartney and alienated rock-and-roll rebel Lennon, but, as a disruptive cultural force, they always bore Lennon’s stamp. Musically, just two of countless examples are the forthright candour his vocal added to Smokey Robinson’s vulnerable “You’ve Really Got a Hold on Me” in 1964 and the “I used to be cruel to my woman” bridge he added to McCartney’s positive-thinking “Getting Better” in 1967. Culturally too, Lennon assumed the role of the candid provocateur. All four Beatles were witty, all four irreverent. But only Lennon would have observed “We’re more popular than Jesus now” or boiled the story of youth culture down to “America had teenagers and everywhere else just had people.”

Lennon’s genius encompassed writing and the visual arts, the only field in which he received formal training. His natural gifts in both were considerable, but in the end he proved a minor humorist and a casual if indelible cartoonist. In music, he had less inborn facility, though his paternal grandfather worked for years as a blackface minstrel. But music was where he put his substance. Lennon was one of the great rock rhythm guitarists, his signature a nervous rest-one-two-and-rest that complicated his foursquare attack, and his strong, nasal singing overshadowed McCartney’s more physically capable rocking and crooning. Declarative where the rockabilly singers he admired were frantic, almost a blues shouter in spirit if not in timbre, Lennon often undercut the masculinity of this approach with a canny, playful high voice deployed to humorous and even campy effect.

The Boston Tea Party

Опубликовано 

The Boston Tea Party was a political and mercantile protest by the Sons of Liberty in BostonMassachusetts, on December 16, 1773.[1] The target was the Tea Act of May 10, 1773, which allowed the British East India company to sell tea from China in American colonies without paying taxes apart from those imposed by the Townshend Acts. American Patriots strongly opposed the taxes in the Townshend Act as a violation of their rights. Demonstrators, some disguised as Native Americans, destroyed an entire shipment of tea sent by the East India Company.

They boarded the ships and threw the chests of tea into the Boston Harbor. The British government responded harshly and the episode escalated into the American Revolution. The Tea Party became an iconic event of American history, and since then other political protests such as the Tea Party movement have referred to themselves as historical successors to the Boston protest of 1773.

The Tea Party was the culmination of a resistance movement throughout British America against the Tea Act, which had been passed by the British Parliament in 1773. Colonists objected to the Tea Act because they believed that it violated their rights as Englishmen to «no taxation without representation«, that is, to be taxed only by their own elected representatives and not by a British parliament in which they were not represented. In addition, the well-connected East India Company had been granted competitive advantages over colonial tea importers, who resented the move and feared additional infringement on their business. Protesters had successfully prevented the unloading of tea in three other colonies, but in Boston, embattled Royal Governor Thomas Hutchinson refused to allow the tea to be returned to Britain.[2]

The Boston Tea Party was a significant event in the growth of the American Revolution. Parliament responded in 1774 with the Intolerable Acts, or Coercive Acts, which, among other provisions, ended local self-government in Massachusetts and closed Boston’s commerce. Colonists up and down the Thirteen Colonies in turn responded to the Intolerable Acts with additional acts of protest, and by convening the First Continental Congress, which petitioned the British monarch for repeal of the acts and coordinated colonial resistance to them. The crisis escalated, and the American Revolutionary War began near Boston in 1775.

Translation

Leonardo Da Vinci was born in an Italian town called Vinci. He lived in a time period called the Renaissance, when everyone was interested in art. Even though Da Vinci was a great artist, he became famous for the other things he could do. He was a sculptor, a scientist, an inventor, an architect, a musician, and a mathematician. Da Vinci’s paintings were done in the realist style.

Realism is a type of art that tries to show things exactly as they appear in life. It began in the 18th century, but the greatest realist era was in the mid – 19th century. Most realists were from France, but there were some famous American painters who were realists too.

Surrealists’ paintings were generally based on dreams. Their paintings were filled with familiar objects which were painted to look strange or mysterious. They hoped their odd paintings would make people look at things in a different way and change the way they felt about things. Salvador Dalí was best known for the striking and bizarre imges in his surrealist works.

Լեոնարդո Դա Վինչին ծնվել է Վինչի անունով իտալական քաղաքում: Նա ապրել է մի ժամանակաշրջանում, որը կոչվում է Ռենեսանս և երբ բոլորը հետաքրքրված էին արվեստով: Չնայած որ Դա Վինչին հրաշալի նկարիչ էր, նա հայտնի դարձավ ուրիշ բաների համար: Նա քանդակագործ էր, գիտնական, ճարտարապետ, երաժիշտ և  մաթեմատիկոս: Դա Վինչիի նկարները արվել են ռեալիստ ձևով:

Ռեալիզմը արվեստի տեսակ է, որը փորձում է ցույց տալ ամեն ինչ, ինչպես իրականում կա: Այն սկսվել է 18-րդ դարում, բայց ռեալիզմի լավագույն շրջանը 19-րդ դարի կեսերին էր: Ռեալիստների մեծ մասը Ֆրանսիայից էին, բայց կային նաև հայտնի ամերիկյան ռեալիստ նկարիչներ:

Սուռեալիստների նկարները սովորաբար հիմնված էին երազների վրա: Նրանց նկարներում կային ծանոթ առարկաներ, որոնք նկարված էին տարօրինակ ձևով: Նրանք մտածում էին, որ իրենց տարօրինակ նկարները մարդկանց կստիպեն աառարկաներին ուրիշ ձևով նայել և կփոխեն իրենց զգացմունքները դրանց նկատմամբ: Սալվադոր Դալին ճանաչված էր իր նկարներում տարօրինակ և տպավորիչ պատկերների համար:

Translation of a review of “Pirates of the Caribbean 2”

Ջեքը վերադարձել է։ Եվ նորից, այս տարօրինակ ծովահենը հետախուզման մեջ էր։

Ջեք Ճնճղուկի փախուստի կազմակերպման մեջ մեղադրվող Վիլ Թուրներ և Էլիզաբեթ Սվան ամուսիններին ձերբակալելուց հետո, “Արևելյան Հնդկաստան” Առևտրի ընկերությունը ներկայացնող չարամիտ լորդ Բեքետը Վիլլին առաջարկում է այսպիսի պայման․ գտնել ծովահենին և վերադարձնել, բայց առաջին հերթին բերել նրա հեքիաթային գանձեր գտնող կողմնացույցը։ Այլապես Վիլին մահապատժի կենթարկեն։ Այլընտրանք չունենալով՝ Վիլլը որոշեց գտնել այդ ծովահենին՝ կնոջն ազատելու համար։

Միևնույն ժամանակ Ջեքին առևանգել էր մարդակերների մի խումբ, որը մտածում էր, թե նա աստված է։ Ջեքն այդ կղզի գնացել էր Դեյվի Ջոնսի սիրտը գտնելու համար։ Ջոնսն իր սիրտը պահել էր սնդուկի մեջ։ Ջեքի կարծիքով ով ունենար Ջոնսի սիրտը, նա էլ կկարողանար կառավարել ամենասարսափազդու նավն՝ իր անձնակազմով հանդերձ։ Անձնակազմի մեջ էր նաև Վիլլ ի հայրը՝ Բիլլ Թուրները։

Վիլլը փնտրում էր Ջեքին, որպեսզի ազատվեր կախաղանից ։ Նա նույնպես ուզում էր Դեյվի Ջոնսի սիրտը, որպեսզի ազատի իր հոր հոգին։ Ջեքը ուզում է գտնել Վիլլին, որպեսզի մարի իր պարտքը Ջոնին, Ջոնը ուզում է գտնել Ջեքին, որովհետև այս խաբեբայի կյանքի ժամկետը լրացել էր։ Լորդ Բեքեթը փնտրում էր Ջեքին և իր կողմնացույցը, որը նրան կտաներ սնդուկի մոտ։ Էլիզաբեթի նախկին նշանածը՝ Նորինգտոնը, Ջեքից վրեժ է ուզում լուծել և հույս ունի, որ դրանով կարժանանա Լորդ Բեքեթի հավանությանը։ Էլիզաբեթն ուղղակի ուզում է ամուսնանալ։

Jack is back. And once again, the eccentric pirate is a wanted man.

After arresting lovebirds Will Turner and Elizabeth Swann for abetting Capt. Jack Sparrow’s escape (which ended the first Pirates movie The Curse of the Black Pearl), the malicious Lord Beckett of the East India Trading Company offers Will a deal: Locate the pirate and return him—and, more importantly, the mystical treasure-bearing compass he possesses—or else face sure execution. With no other option, Will sets out to find the outlandish buccaneer, promising to return and free his love.

Meanwhile, Jack, who’s been captured by a group of cannibals who think he’s a god, is after something of his own: a key to legendary pirate Davy Jones’ locker. The key unlocks a chest containing no swag, merely the still-beating heart of the feared sea marauder. According to Jack, whoever seizes Jones’ heart will control the half-squid, half-man himself—and his crew of undead, sea-ruling souls that includes Will’s cursed father, “Bootstrap” Bill Turner.

Will wants Jack so he can escape the gallows. He also wants the heart to free his dad’s soul. Jack wants Will in order to settle a debt with Jones. Jones wants Jack, whose time of scheming as a living swindler is up. Lord Beckett wants Jack and the compass, which ultimately leads to the chest. Elizabeth’s ex-fiancé, Commodore Norrington, wants revenge on Jack and hopes to earn the approval of Lord Beckett. And Elizabeth just wants to be married—or so it seems. Whew! Talk about your tangled and mangled treasure hunt.
