Toi aussi polyglotte
by Roberto Coppola Alexandra FrogerCe livre recueille les conseils des grands polyglottes et examine les méthodes les plus efficaces d'auto-apprentissage des langues étrangères, selon mon expérience de formateur et de traducteur. Un chapitre entier se consacre au développement d'une méthode personnelle « parfaite » pour atteindre l'objectif d'apprendre à parler, lire et écrire en quatre langues étrangères sur deux ans. L'étude d'une langue étrangère ressemble beaucoup à l'étude d'un instrument de musique. Prenons le piano, par exemple. Il est nécessaire d'avoir des connaissances de la « grammaire » musicale et nous devons acquérir la dextérité nécessaire pour déplacer nos dix doigts sur le clavier avec précision et sans bavure. L'objectif principal est d'apprendre à jouer du piano plutôt que d'apprendre la théorie de la musique. La théorie est un outil d'apprentissage, pas sa fin. Jusqu'à il y a quelques années, l'étude du piano débutait avec le solfège. Une pratique ennuyeuse qui durait plusieurs mois et qui empoisonnait la vie de tous les débutants. Désormais, l'étude du piano et de tous les instruments de musique a beaucoup changé, tout comme l'étude des langues étrangères. Le changement didactique a diminué l'intérêt pour la grammaire et a, en même temps, accru l'attention portée à la pratique. La conscience de la spécificité de l'étude des langues n'est pas une technique académique. C'est une prémisse indispensable, un principe qui doit guider tous nos efforts dès la toute première leçon. Nous devons toujours nous concentrer sur le progrès de notre savoir-faire, c'est-à-dire notre capacité à parler, lire et écrire. Contenu : Préface 1-Éclaircissons-nous les idées 2-Les grands polyglottes du passé 3-Ce qui est encore valide et ce qui ne l'est plus 4-Les grands polyglottes du présent 5-De la langue à ta langue 6-Les méthodes infaillibles 7-La méthode par

Tonal Space in the Music of Antonio Vivaldi
by Bella Brover-LubovskyTonal Space in the Music of Antonio Vivaldi incorporates an analytical study of Vivaldi's style into a more general exploration of harmonic and tonal organization in the music of the late Italian Baroque. The harmonic and tonal language of Vivaldi and his contemporaries, full of curious links between traditional modal thinking and what would later be considered common-practice major-minor tonality, directly reflects the historical circumstances of the shifting attitude toward the conceptualization of tonal space so crucial to Western art music. Vivaldi is examined in a completely new context, allowing both his prosaic and idiosyncratic sides to emerge clearly. This book contributes to a better understanding of Vivaldi's individual style, while illuminating wider processes of stylistic development and the diffusion of artistic ideas in the 18th century.

Toning: The Creative Power of the Voice
by Laurel Elizabeth KeyesToning is an ancient method of healing, which I hope will be recognized and used with new understanding now that we have more scientific explanations for it. It does not depend upon faith, nor belief in the method, any more than these are necessary to our use of electricity to provide light and energy in our daily living. There appear to be certain natural flows of energy in our bodies and if we recognize them and cooperate with them, they benefit us. Toning is not limited to one's religion, or lack of it. It does not require one's belief. Apparently it is not a "gift" but something available to anyone who goes through the mechanics of letting the voice express itself in a natural way. Anyone who can groan can Tone and experience its benefits. There is no mystery about Toning. It can be understood through material science, physiology and psychology as well as the most ancient concepts of man's relationship to his God. Please try it.
