    G. F. Unger 2156 (eBook, ePUB)
    Jesse Chisholm war jener Rancher, der als erster Texaner eine Rinderherde nach Kansas zu den Eisenbahnstädten trieb. Es war ein außergewöhnliches Wagnis, etwa gleichzusetzen mit der Erstumseglung von Kap Hoorn. Nach dem Bürgerkrieg war Texas arm, und es gab keine Absatzmärkte für den unvorstellbaren Rindersegen des Landes. Die Longhorns hatten sich wie Kaninchen vermehrt. Aber sie waren nicht einmal mehr den Preis ihrer Häute wert. In dieser Situation zeigte der Rancher Jesse Chisholm ganz Texas den Weg zu den Absatzmärkten. Im Osten waren Konservenfabriken entstanden. Man musste die Rinderherden also zur nächsten Bahnstation treiben und in den Osten verfrachten. Die nächsten Bahnstationen waren in Kansas, in den Städten Dodge City und Abilene. Von San Antonio in Texas waren das mehr als tausend Meilen - durch reißende Ströme, über mächtige Gebirge - und durch das Indianerterritorium. Doch außer der Geschichte des Treibens, da gibt es noch eine andere Geschichte. Sie ist Legende, und sie nennt noch einen weiteren Namen: Buck Cassady!

    Summary and Analysis: On the Road by Jack Kerouac , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 32min
    This is a summary and analysis of the book.  (Disclaimer: This is NOT the original book. If you’re looking for the original book, it is available from Amazon and Audible.)On the Road is a novel by American writer Jack Kerouac, based on the travels of Kerouac and his friends across the United States. It is considered a defining work of the postwar beat and counterculture generations, with its protagonists living life against a backdrop of jazz, poetry, and drug use. The novel, published in 1957, is a Roman à clef, with many key figures in the beat movement, such as William S. Burroughs (Old Bull Lee), Allen Ginsberg (Carlo Marx), and Neal Cassady (Dean Moriarty) represented by characters in the book, including Kerouac himself as the narrator Sal Paradise. The idea for On the Road, Kerouac's second novel, was formed during the late 1940s in a series of notebooks, and then typed out on a continuous reel of paper during three weeks in April 1951. It was first published by Viking Press in 1957.  When the book was originally released, The New York Times hailed it as "the most beautifully executed, the clearest and the most important utterance yet made by the generation Kerouac himself named years ago as 'beat,' and whose principal avatar he is." In 1998, the Modern Library ranked On the Road 55th on its list of the 100 best English-language novels of the 20th century. The novel was chosen by Time magazine as one of the 100 best English-language novels from 1923 to 2005. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Ron Welch.

    Playwriting 101: A Quick Guide on Writing and Producing Your First Play Step by Step from A to Z , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 141min
    To write for the theater, you need to know about theater. Ideas are easy to come by. Examine your background, interest, and beliefs. Examine the world around you. Exercises can help you come up with ideas. Choose the audience you want to reach, and write to that audience. To learn to write dialogue, listen to and record everyday conversations. Dialogue should sound like ordinary conversations but have more direction.  Know as much as you can about your central characters. Do a character analysis. Choose the character traits to emphasize. A character should come across as both typical and individual. Most plays have a plot, which involves conflict between the protagonist and the antagonist. The parts of a plot are: inciting incident, rising action, turning point, climax, and falling action. Other types of organization for a play are circular and thematic.  Before starting to write, you need to develop a central idea. Plays exist for a number of reasons - entertainment, to bring attention to something, and to teach. You need to decide what you want to accomplish. It’s easier to gain an audience’s interest if you start with a theme with which they agree.  A play needs a sense of universality. A play should be unified, but it also needs contrast. Since theater is a collaborative art, the director, actor, and designers may see the different facets differently than you do. It’s not difficult to have a well-written production. Possible markets are schools, organizations, and professional theater. Finished plays have to follow a particular format.  About the expert: Marsh Cassady has had 38 plays published and/or produced - including off-Broadway. A former theater professor with a PhD degree, he started a playwriting program at Montclair State in New Jersey that included beginning and advanced classes, workshops, and individual projects. He also taught creative writing, including playwriting, at UCSD. Marsh is the author of 60 published books ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Phillip Goodchild.

    With essays by: Rowan Blanchard - Senator Tammy Duckworth - America Ferrera - Roxane Gay - Ilana Glazer - Ashley Judd - Valarie Kaur - Cindi Leive - David Remnick - Jill Soloway - Yara Shahidi - Jia Tolentino - Congresswoman Maxine Waters - Elaine Welteroth - Jose Antonio Vargas - and more   This audiobook offers an unprecedented, front-row seat to one of the most galvanizing movements in American history, with exclusive interviews with Women's March organizers and essays by feminist activists.   On January 21, 2017, the day after Donald J. Trump's inauguration, more than three million marchers of all ages and walks of life took to the streets as part of the largest protest in American history to voice a common message: Hear our voice.   It became the largest global protest in modern history. Compiled by Women's March organizers, in partnership with Condé Nast and Glamour magazine Editor in Chief Cindi Leive, Together We Rise - published for the one-year anniversary of the event - is the complete chronicle of this remarkable uprising. For the first time, Women's March organizers - including Bob Bland, Cassady Fendlay, Sarah Sophie Flicker, Janaye Ingram, Tamika Mallory, Paola Mendoza, Carmen Perez, and Linda Sarsour - tell their personal stories and reflect on their collective journey in an oral history written by Jamia Wilson, writer, activist and director of The Feminist Press. They provide an inside look at how the idea for the event originated, how it was organized, how it became a global movement that surpassed their wildest expectations, and how they are sustaining and building on the widespread outrage, passion, and determination that sparked it.   Together We Rise interweaves their stories with "Voices from the March" - recollections from real women who were there, across the world, and 22 short, thought-provoking essays by esteemed writers, celebrities and artists. Together We Rise ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Women's March Organizers, Ashley Judd, Kateri Akiwenzie-Damm, Sister Aisha Al-Adawiya, Melanie L. Campbell, Judith LeBlanc.
