Hardback. Condizione: Good. Available now, for the first time, is this single volume of opera reference with selections carefully extracted from the classic four-volume set of The New Grove Dictionary of Opera--the most comprehensive dictionary of opera in the world. The New Grove Book of Operas presents the most popular entries from the four-volume encyclopedia and combines the meticulous Grove scholarship with a lightness of touch and readability that will delight any opera-goer. The selections have been made by editor and world-renowned musicologist Stanley Sadie. The New Grove Book of Operas includes over 250 operas performed around the world, in major opera houses, for the past quarter of a century, from the very earliest operas still in production to the most recent works of the twentieth century. A handful of additional works has also been chosen as having particular interest, merit, or historical significance. Listed alphabetically by opera, the entries range from Handel's Acis and Galatea, to Verdi's Macbeth, to Britten's Peter Grimes, to Mozart's Die Zauberfl te. Each includes a full synopsis of the plot described by the leading authority on either the opera itself or the composer, a cast list, a note on the singers in the original production, and information on the origins of the work and its literary and social background. Contributions conclude with a brief comment on the particular opera's place in operatic history. The stunning color and black-and-white illustrations throughout bring a fascinating and often amusing dimension to the text and show how the staging of opera has changed from its original to its most modern deconstructed productions. Fully cross-referenced with a listing of operas by composer, an index of characters, an index of first lines of arias, and a complete glossary, The New Grove Book of Operas is both remarkably easy to use for the novice and comprehensive enough in its scholarship to satisfy even the most sophisticated opera buff. It is the essential, must-have guide for a season at the opera.…

Hardback. Condizione: Fair. This book offers a systematic examination of poverty, inequality, and innovation from a perspective of the Global South. It examines and foregrounds historical backgrounds, context, measurements, policies, programmes, approaches to services including continuous monitoring and evaluation processes. The book also reflects on proposing that public policies should be based on rigorously and scientifically established evidence. -- Mulugeta F. Dinbabo, Professor of Development Studies, University of the Western Cape, Cape Town, South Africa A brilliant book on the nexus between poverty, inequality, innovation and development. The book opens new vistas and fresh pathways for Africa's development steeped in lived experiences from the Global South. --Saumya Chakrabarti, Ph.D. Professor of Economics, Visva-Bharati (University), Santiniketan, India. Oliver Mtapuri is Professor at the School of Built Environment and Development Studies, ​University of KwaZulu Natal, South Africa. This edited volume analyzes the experiences learned in practice especially among small holder farmers to eradicate poverty. In other words, it discusses practical solutions which small scale farmers can use to alleviate poverty and reduce inequality. This addresses the issue of inclusive and sustainability of projects leading to the notion of not leaving anyone behind. The book provides insights that can be translated into policy with potential to inform practice. It also has the potential to address the issue of rural urban migration by providing knowledge that is usable by small scale farmers, policy makers and entrepreneurs alike. The volume is written by authors from different countries, Nigeria, Tanzania, and Zimbabwe, indicating the commonality of the problems of poverty and inequality. It contains insights from all these countries assembled together into an amalgam of practices ready to use and implement informed by evidence from the field as most of the chapters are based on empirical data.…
