Excerpt: The Nirvana bootleg recordings are a number of audio CD recordings of musical performances by the American rock band Nirvana, which were never officially released by the band, or under any other legal authority. The recordings consist of both live performances and outtakes from studio sessions unavailable as a legal release. Nirvana was formed by singer/guitarist Kurt Cobain and bassist Krist Novoselic in Aberdeen, Washington in 1987, and featured drummer Dave Grohl for the majority of the bands career. They had previously gone through a succession of drummers, most notably Chad Channing, Dale Crover and Dan Peters. Jason Everman was briefly added as a second guitarist in 1989. Pat Smear joined the band as a touring guitarist in 1993. Although Nirvana existed for less than a decade, they released three studio albums, starting with 1989's Bleach, followed by their major label breakthrough album, Nevermind in 1991. In Utero was released in 1993, just seven months prior to Cobain's death in April 1994. As Nirvana's popularity grew following the success of Nevermind, unreleased recordings of the band began to surface in the form of unofficial bootleg CDs, often originating from companies in Europe and Japan. The sound quality and album art would frequently range from appalling to appealing, sometimes sounding like and resembling something of a legitimate release. Some of the recordings came from 'tape trading' circles while others may have been recorded or obtained specifically for the bootleg CD. Material was sometimes gathered from already existing vinyl bootlegs or other bootleg CDs as they became available. Additionally, songs issued only as a b-side or compilation track became frequent candidates for use as filler material. Nirvana would not see any royalties from these releases, nor would they have anything to do with their production. The first Nirvana bootleg CD was released in 1992 by Post Script, simply titled Europe 1991. Since then, hundreds of recordings ofBooks on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 30 pp. Englisch.

Excerpt: Finnegans Wake is a work of comic fiction by Irish author James Joyce, significant for its experimental style and resulting reputation as one of the most difficult works of fiction in the English language. Written in Paris over a period of seventeen years, and published in 1939, two years before the author's death, Finnegans Wake was Joyce's final work. The entire book is written in a largely idiosyncratic language, consisting of a mixture of standard English lexical items and neologistic multilingual puns and portmanteau words, which many critics believe attempts to recreate the experience of sleep and dreams. Owing to the work's expansive linguistic experiments, stream of consciousness writing style, literary allusions, free dream associations, and its abandonment of the conventions of plot and character construction, Finnegans Wake remains largely unread by the general public. Despite these obstacles, readers and commentators have reached a broad consensus about the book's central cast of characters and, to a lesser degree, its plot. However, a number of key details remain elusive. The book treats, in an unorthodox fashion, the Earwicker family, composed of the father HCE, the mother ALP, and their three children Shem the Penman, Shaun the Post, and Issy. Following an unspecified rumour about HCE, the book, in a nonlinear dream narrative, follows his wife's attempts to exonerate him with a letter, his sons' struggle to replace him, Shaun's rise to prominence, and a final monologue by ALP at the break of dawn. The opening line of the book is a sentence fragment which continues from the book's unfinished closing line, making the work a never-ending cycle. Many noted Joycean scholars such as Samuel Beckett and Donald Phillip Verene link this cyclical structure to Giambattista Vico's seminal text Scienza Nuova ('New Science'), upon which they argue Finnegans Wake is structured. Joyce began working on Finnegans Wake shortly after the 1922 publication of Ulysses. By 19Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 52 pp. Englisch.

Excerpt: The Dutch East India Company (Dutch: , VOC) was a chartered company established in 1602, when the States-General of the Netherlands granted it a 21-year monopoly to carry out colonial activities in Asia. It was the first multinational corporation in the world and the first company to issue stock. It was also arguably the world's first megacorporation, possessing quasi-governmental powers, including the ability to wage war, imprison and execute convicts, negotiate treaties, coin money, and establish colonies. Statistically, the VOC eclipsed all of its rivals in the Asia trade. Between 1602 and 1796 the VOC sent almost a million Europeans to work in the Asia trade on 4,785 ships, and netted for their efforts more than 2.5 million tons of Asian trade goods. By contrast, the rest of Europe combined sent only 882,412 people from 1500 to 1795, and the fleet of the English (later British) East India Company, the VOC¿s nearest competitor, was a distant second to its total traffic with 2,690 ships and a mere one-fifth the tonnage of goods carried by the VOC. The VOC enjoyed huge profits from its spice monopoly through most of the 17th century. Having been set up in 1602, to profit from the Malukan spice trade, in 1619 the VOC established a capital in the port city of Batavia (now Jakarta). Over the next two centuries the Company acquired additional ports as trading bases and safeguarded their interests by taking over surrounding territory. It remained an important trading concern and paid an 18% annual dividend for almost 200 years. Weighed down by corruption in the late 18th century, the Company went bankrupt and was formally dissolved in 1800, its possessions and the debt being taken over by the government of the Dutch Batavian Republic. The VOC's territories became the Dutch East Indies and were expanded over the course of the 19th century to include the whole of the Indonesian archipelago, and in the 20th century would form Indonesia.

Excerpt: R. Madhavan (Tamil: , born 1 June 1970) is an Indian actor, writer, film producer and television host. Madhavan has received a Filmfare Award, an award from the Tamil Nadu State Film Awards alongside recognition and nominations from other organisations. He has been described as one of the few actors in India who is able to achieve pan-Indian appeal, appearing in films from eight different languages. Madhavan began his acting career with television guest appearances, including a role on the Zee TV prime-time soap opera Banegi Apni Baat in 1996. After appearing in commercials and in small roles, he later gained recognition as the husband going through the traumas of his marriage in Mani Ratnam's successful romantic film Alaipayuthey (2000). Madhavan soon developed an image as a romantic hero with notable roles in two of 2001's biggest grossers, Gautham Menon's directorial debut Minnale and Madras Talkies' Dumm Dumm Dumm. He worked with Ratnam again in the critically acclaimed 2002 film Kannathil Muthamittal playing the father of an adopted girl, whilst he enjoyed commercial success with his role in Linguswamy's action film, Run (2002). He was cast opposite Kamal Haasan in the 2003 drama Anbe Sivam, which earned him two notable awards for supporting actor. In 2004 he gave critically acclaimed performances in the multi-starring drama Aayutha Ezhuthu and the film secured him his first Filmfare Award for the intense portrayal of a rogue. In the mid 2000s Madhavan also pursued a career in Hindi films, writing the dialogues for the comedy Ramji Londonwaley, before appearing in supporting roles in two big-budget productions, Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra's Rang De Basanti and Mani Ratnam's biopic Guru. He then won critical acclaim for his portrayal of angry man in his home production in 2007, Evano Oruvan, whilst t.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 78 pp. Englisch.

Excerpt: Jorge Francisco Isidoro Luis Borges Acevedo (August 24, 1899 ¿ June 14, 1986), best known as Jorge Luis Borges (Spanish pronunciation: ), was an Argentine writer, essayist, and poet born in Buenos Aires. In 1914 his family moved to Switzerland where he attended school and traveled to Spain. On his return to Argentina in 1921, Borges began publishing his poems and essays in surrealist literary journals. He also worked as a librarian and public lecturer. In 1955 he was appointed director of the National Public Library (Biblioteca Nacional) and professor of Literature at the University of Buenos Aires. In 1961 he came to international attention when he received the first International Publishers' Prize, the Prix Formentor. In 1971 he won the Jerusalem Prize. His work was translated and published widely in the United States and in Europe. Borges himself was fluent in several languages. He died in Geneva, Switzerland, in 1986. His work embraces the 'character of unreality in all literature.' His most famous books, Ficciones (1944) and The Aleph (1949), are compilations of short stories interconnected by common themes such as dreams, labyrinths, libraries, fictional writers, religion and God. His works have contributed to the genre of magical realism, a genre that reacted against the realism/naturalism of the nineteenth century. In fact, critic Angel Flores, the first to use the term, set the beginning of this movement with Borges's Historia universal de la infamia (1935). Scholars also have suggested that Borges's progressive blindness helped him to create innovative literary symbols through imagination. His late poems dialogue with such cultural figures as Spinoza, Camões, and Virgil. His international fame was consolidated in the 1960s, aided by the 'Latin American Boom' and the success of Gabriel García Márquez's Cien Años de Soledad (One Hundred Years of Solitude). Writer and essayist J. M. Coetzee said of him: 'He, more than anyone, renovated the language of fictionBooks on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 122 pp. Englisch.

Excerpt: Boa Kwon (Korean: , Kwon Boa, born November 5, 1986), commonly stylized and known by her stage name BoA, which is a backronym for Beat of Angel, is a Korean singer, active in South Korea, Japan, and the United States and sometimes referred to as the 'Queen of Korean Pop Music'. Born and raised in Gyeonggi-do, South Korea, BoA was discovered by SM Entertainment talent agents when she accompanied her older brother to a talent search. In 2000, after two years of training, she released ID; Peace B, her debut Korean album. Two years later, she released her debut Japanese album, Listen to My Heart, becoming the first Korean pop star to break through in Japan following the fall of barriers that had restricted the import and export of entertainment between the countries since the end of World War II. On October 14, 2008, BoA debuted in the United States with the single 'Eat You Up' and released her debut English-language album, BoA on March 17, 2009. As the singer feels she does not 'have any talent for writing ', the writing and composition of her songs are handled mostly by her staff; for this reason, she has drawn some criticism. BoA's multilingual skills (she speaks Japanese and English along with native Korean and has recorded songs in Mandarin Chinese) have contributed to her commercial success throughout East Asia. She is the only non-Japanese Asian to have three albums selling more than one million copies in Japan and is one of only two artists to have six consecutive number-one studio albums on the Oricon charts si.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 146 pp. Englisch.

Excerpt: William Ford Gibson (born March 17, 1948) is an American-Canadian speculative fiction novelist who has been called the 'noir prophet' of the cyberpunk subgenre. Gibson coined the term 'cyberspace' in his short story 'Burning Chrome' (1982) and later popularized the concept in his debut novel, Neuromancer (1984). In envisaging cyberspace, Gibson created an iconography for the information age before the ubiquity of the Internet in the 1990s. He is also credited with predicting the rise of reality television and with establishing the conceptual foundations for the rapid growth of virtual environments such as video games and the World Wide Web. Having changed residence frequently with his family as a child, Gibson became a shy, ungainly teenager who often read science fiction. After spending his adolescence at a private boarding school in Arizona, Gibson evaded the draft during the Vietnam War by emigrating to Canada in 1968, where he became immersed in the counterculture and after settling in Vancouver eventually became a full-time writer. He retains dual citizenship. Gibson's early works are bleak, noir near-future stories about the effect of cybernetics and computer networks on humans ¿ a 'combination of lowlife and high tech'. The short stories were published in popular science fiction magazines. The themes, settings and characters developed in these stories culminated in his first novel, Neuromancer, which garnered critical and commercial success, virtually initiating the cyberpunk literary genre. Although much of Gibson's reputation has remained associated with Neuromancer, his work has continued to evolve. After expandi.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 204 pp. Englisch.

Excerpt: This terminology should not be blamed on me. It was obtained by a democratic process in my course of 1976-77. An orbifold is something with many folds; unfortunately, the word ¿manifold¿ already has a different definition. I tried ¿foldamani¿, which was quickly displaced by the suggestion of ¿manifolded¿. After two months of patiently saying ¿no, not a manifold, a manifol,¿ we held a vote, and ¿orbifold¿ won. In the mathematical disciplines of topology, geometry, and geometric group theory, an orbifold (for 'orbit-manifold') is a generalization of a manifold. It is a topological space (called the underlying space) with an orbifold structure (see below). The underlying space locally looks like the quotient space of a Euclidean space under the linear action of a finite group. Definitions of orbifold have been given several times: by Satake in the context of automorphic forms in the 1950s under the name V-manifold; by Thurston in the context of the geometry of 3-manifolds in the 1970s when he coined the name orbifold, after a vote by his students; and by Haefliger in the 1980s in the context of Gromov's programme on CAT(k) spaces under the name orbihedron. The definition of Thurston will be described here: it is the most widely used and is applicable in all cases. Mathematically, orbifolds arose first as surfaces with singular points long before they were formally defined. One of the first classical examples arose in the theory of modular forms.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 148 pp. Englisch.

Auszug: Die Münchner Stadtbäche sind ein System aus ursprünglich natürlichen, später kanalisierten Seitenarmen der Isar. Sie spielten für die wirtschaftliche Entwicklung Münchens vom Mittelalter bis in das 19. Jahrhundert hinein eine entscheidende Rolle. Ein großer Teil der innerstädtischen Stadtbäche wurde mittlerweile trockengelegt oder überbaut, dennoch gehen viele der heute noch bestehenden Gewässer in München, z.B. die Bäche des Englischen Gartens, auf die ursprünglichen Stadtbäche zurück. St. Anna Kunstmühle am Kainzmühlbach 1878Im frühen Mittelalter hatte die Isar in München noch einen natürlichen Verlauf. Sie verlief auf der unteren Terrasse der Münchner Schotterebene, der Hirschau-Terrasse, und war in mehrere Seitenarme verzweigt, deren Verlauf sich immer wieder änderte. In dem Maß, in dem die Wasserkraft dieser Seitenarme als Energiequelle für Mühlen genutzt wurde, wurden die Ufer der Seitenarme befestigt, um ihren Verlauf festzulegen. Aus den bestehenden Wasserläufen wurden neue abgezweigt, die sich später wieder mit dem ursprünglichen oder einem anderen Wasserlauf vereinigten. So entstand im Verlauf des Mittelalters ein vernetztes System von Bächen, deren einzelne Teilabschnitte meist nach den an ihnen liegenden Mühlen benannt wurden. Ein einzelner Bach wechselte also in seinem Verlauf mehrmals den Namen. Überwölbung des Schwabinger Bachs 1890Die Mühlen, die an den Bächen standen, waren nicht nur Getreidemühlen zum Mahlen von Getreide zu Mehl. Die Wasserkraft der Bäche wurde beispielsweise auch zum Stampfen, Hämmern, Sägen und Schleifen verwendet. Auch die vor den Stadtmauern zur besseren Verteidigung angelegten Stadtgräben wurden von den Stadtbächen gespeist. Die Bäche versorgten die Stadt mit Brauchwasser. Das Trinkwasser gewann man dagegen aus Brunnen, die bis zum Grundwasser reichten. Ab dem 16. Jahrhundert nutzte man in Brunnhäusern die Wasserkraft der Bäche zum Hochpumpen des Grundwassers in Wassertürme und leitete es von dort über Röhren in die Häuser.

Auszug: Die Flora Australiens ist durch einen hohen Anteil an endemischen Pflanzenarten und -gattungen gekennzeichnet, sodass Australien als eigenes Florenreich Australis geführt wird. Dieses umfasst das australische Festland und die Insel Tasmanien. Es sind rund 20.000 Pflanzenarten beschrieben worden. Die artenreichsten Gattungen sind dabei Eukalyptus und Akazien mit rund 850 und 1.000 Arten. Diese beiden Gattungen prägen in weiten Teilen die Vegetation Australiens. In den ariden Gebieten herrschen Grasländer vor, die von den Gattungen Triodia (Spinifex) und Astrebla (Mitchell-Gras) beherrscht werden. Die Regenwälder nehmen eine sehr geringe Fläche ein, sind aber sehr artenreich und beherbergen viele ursprüngliche Arten. Australien ist ein alter Kontinent und rund 7,7 Millionen km groß. Zum Florenreich der Australis gehören nur das Festland und Tasmanien; Neuguinea ist zwar Teil des australischen Kontinents, nicht aber des australischen Florenreichs (je nach Autor wird Neuguinea der Paläotropis oder der Ozeanis zugeordnet). Die durchschnittliche Höhe beträgt nur 330 m, und lediglich 13 Prozent der Landesfläche liegen über 500 m. Das Klima in Australien ist durch eine hohe Sonneneinstrahlung und geringe Niederschläge gekennzeichnet, die durch den subtropischen Hochdruckgürtel bedingt sind. Die hohe Sonneneinstrahlung bedingt eine hohe Verdunstung (Evaporation). Australien ist nach der Antarktis der trockenste Kontinent. Im Norden herrschen Sommerregen vor, die durch den Monsun von November bis März bedingt und sehr verlässlich sind. Für den Rest des Jahres herrscht im Norden Trockenheit. Ein schmaler Streifen im Nordosten erhält jedoch ganzjährig hohe Niederschläge. Viele Tropentiefs werden jedoch von den Gebirgen Neuguineas abgeblockt. Im Süden herrscht Winterregen vor. In der ariden Zone dazwischen kommen nur asaisonale Regen vor, die nicht jährlich eintreten. Zwei Drittel des Landes erhalten weniger als 250 mm Regen pro Jahr.

Auszug: Mohammad Omar (\* in Kabul; ¿ 1980 ebenda) war ein afghanischer Musiker der Kabuler Altstadt Kharabat. Ustad Mohammad Omar entstammte keiner traditionellen Musikerfamilie. Er begann als Amateurmusiker nach einer Ausbildung in nordindischem klassischen Gesang bei Ustad Qasem. Er war Mitglied der von Ghulam Hossein gegründete Musikgruppe in den Gründungszeiten von Radio Afghanistan. Nach der Pensionierung von Ustad Ghulam Hossein in 1950er Jahren wurde er Direktor des aus traditionellen Musikinstrumenten bestehenden Orchesters von Radio Afghanistan, heute RTA. Die Virtuosität des Ustad Mohammad Omar lag vor allem in der Musik-Gattung Naghma, eine Art Lied ohne Gesang. Bei diesem Lied spielte er die gleiche Melodie mit vielfältigen tonalen Höhen und Tiefen mit unterschiedlicher temporaler Schnelligkeit. Er erzeugte auf der Rubab viele Töne anderer Musikinstrumente, ja fast so viele wie auf der Gitarre. Die tonale Musikmuster von geringster Variation einfachster Klänge und von langsamer Geschwindigkeit bis zum Maximus der tonalen und temporalen Variationen der Klänge brachte er sehr leicht hervor. Die Wiederholungen, mögen vielleicht beim ersten Hören langweilig erscheinen, sind aber beim genaueren Hören die Klänge bunt, variationsreich und gar leicht verändert. Ustad Omar legte beim Rubabspielen unterschiedlich langen Unterbrechungen ein, Intermezzi also, die das Dramatische im Spiel im Vorschein brachten und Besinnung bei Zuschauern ermöglichten. Tabla und/ oder Zerbaghali sind die üblichen Instrumente, die die Rubab begleiten; sie schweigen, solange der Rubabspieler die Zuhörer in das Thema allmählich einführt und mit plötzlicher Teilnahme von Tabla das sog. Gespräch anfängt. Die Instrumente sind aber für das Gespräch und den Streit erforderlich. Auch Rubab schweigt, um Tabla klängen zu lassen. Rubab wird selbst zum Schlaginstrument. Beobachter bzw. Zuhörer unterscheiden kaum, ob hier die Saiten geschlagen oder angerissen werden. Eigentlich ist die Musik in AfghanistaBooks on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 110 pp. Deutsch.

Randolph, Minenleger, Minenkreuzer. Auszug: Die Porpoise-Klasse war eine Klasse von U-Booten der britischen Royal Navy im Zweiten Weltkrieg. In der Literatur werden die U-Minenleger teilweise auch als Grampus-Klasse bezeichnet. Im Ersten Weltkrieg entwickelte die britische Rüstungsindustrie die U-Kreuzer der M-Klasse. Die ursprünglich mit extrem schwerer Artillerie bewaffneten U-Boot-Monitore wurden nach Kriegsende als Testfahrzeuge für verschiedene Einsatzkonzepte genutzt. U. a. wurde die HMS M3 zum Minenleger umgebaut. Das Minenverlegesystem des Versuchs-U-Bootes bewährte sich, weshalb der Bau eines großen minenenlegenden U-Bootes im britischen Etat von 1930 bewilligt wurde. Der Prototyp HMS Porpoise lief 1932 vom Stapel und wurde 1933 in Dienst gestellt. Der Entwurf wurde weiterentwickelt und vergrößert. Der Bug wurde umgestaltet und das Magazin für die Seeminen verlängert. Bis 1939 wurden weitere fünf U-Boote der Klasse in Dienst gestellt. Nach Ausbruch des Zweiten Weltkrieges wurden 1940 drei weitere U-Boote der Klasse geordert. Der Bauauftrag wurde aber im September 1941 zurückgezogen. Die Royal Navy hatte nach deutschem und US-amerikanischen Vorbild inzwischen neue Seeminen entwickelt, die durch ein übliches Torpedorohr ausgestoßen werden konnten. Infolge dieser Entwicklung erschien der Bau spezieller U-Minenleger nicht mehr sinnvoll, da jetzt jedes mit Standard-Torpedorohren bewaffnete U-Boot See-Minen verlegen konnte. Die U-Boote besaßen einen konventionellen Hybridantrieb aus zwei Dieselmotoren für die Überwasserfahrt und zwei Elektromotoren für den Tauchbetrieb. Die Antriebsleistung wurde auf zwei Propeller übertragen. Die U-Boote hatten eine Überwasserreichweite von 5880 Seemeilen (10890 km). Die Bleiakkumulatoren erlaubten getaucht Fahrbereiche bis zu 64 Seemeilen (119 km). Die wichtigste konstruktive Besonderheit der U-Boote war das Minenlegesystem. Andere Minenleger-U-Boote wie z. B. die französische Saphir-Klasse oder die ebenfalls in Frankreich gebaute polnische Wilk-Klasse nutzten teilweiseBooks on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 114 pp. Deutsch.

Auszug: Die Nagato-Klasse (jap. , Nagato-gata senkan) war eine Klasse von zwei Schlachtschiffen des japanischen Kaiserreiches, die im Zweiten Weltkrieg zum Einsatz kamen. Es war, nach dem Baustopp durch den Flottenvertrag von Washington 1922, die letzte japanische Schlachtschiffklasse, die in den folgenden 15 Jahren in Dienst gestellt wurde. Die Kaiserlich Japanische Marine hatte bereits 1916 mit den Planungen für eine neue Klasse von Schlachtschiffen begonnen. Gestützt auf die Planungen von Admiral Yuzuru Hiraga flossen bald nach deren Bekanntwerden auch die Erkenntnisse aus der Skagerrakschlacht von Juni 1916 in die Überlegungen mit ein. Die britische Queen-Elisabeth-Klasse sollte nun vom japanischen Entwurf übertroffen werden und man entschloss sich, 40,6 cm Geschütze zu verwenden. Die erstmalige Verwendung von so schweren Geschützen würde die bisherige Praxis von sechs Geschütztürmen, die man bei den Baureihen der Fuso-Klasse und der Ise-Klasse angewendet hatte, überflüssig machen; vier Türme mit je zwei Geschützen sollten als Hauptbewaffnung ausreichend sein. Das so eingesparte Gewicht und neuartige Maschinenanlagen sollten eine Geschwindigkeit von über 26 Knoten erlauben und die Nagato-Klasse zu einer der schnellsten Schlachtschiffklassen ihrer Zeit werden lassen. Auch die Veränderungen im Bereich der Schutzsysteme, die auf Grund der Erfahrungen der Skagerrakschlacht bei Neuentwicklungen weltweit vorgenommen wurden, betrafen die japanischen Planungen und das Konzept der 'alles-oder-nichts'-Panzerung wurde durch zusätzliche Schutzmaßnahmen ergänzt. Anstatt ausschließlich die lebenswichtigen Bereiche der Schiffe durch dicke Panzerplatten zu schützen, konzentrierte man den Schutz zwar auch auf diese Systeme, nämlich die Munitionskammern und Maschinenräume im Rumpf und die Geschütztürme und den Kommandostand an Deck, segmentierte aber gleichzeitig die Maschinenräume, um im Schadensfall nicht sämtliche Antriebsanlagen durch eindringendes Meerwasser zu verlieren.

Auszug: Das Staatstheater am Gärtnerplatz (im allgemeinen Sprachgebrauch Gärtnerplatztheater) wurde am 25. August 1864 in der Münchner Isarvorstadt am belebten Gärtnerplatz als Actien-Volkstheater gegründet. Es ist heute eines von drei Bayerischen Staatstheatern und neben der Bayerischen Staatsoper das zweite Opernhaus der Stadt. Nachdem in München schon jahrelang der Ruf nach einem Volkstheater laut geworden war, erteilte der junge König Ludwig II. 1864 kurz nach seiner Thronbesteigung die Genehmigung für einen Neubau in der Isarvorstadt. Am 4. November 1865 war die Eröffnung: ¿Der Zudrang des Publikums war ein massenhafter und war das bis in seine obersten Räume glänzend erleuchtete prachtvolle Haus bis zum Erdrücken voll. Vom Hof war nicht König Ludwig II. als Protektor des Hauses, sondern Herzog Max Joseph in Bayern anwesend. Nach einem Prolog spielte man das allegorische Festspiel von Hermann Schmid ¿Was wir wollen¿ mit Musik von Kremplsetzer¿ (Bayerisches Staatstheater am Gärtnerplatz, 1965, S. 12). Die Gründung des neuen Theaters war als Pendant zu den Hoftheatern gedacht und sollte sich schon im Repertoire von diesen unterscheiden. Es geriet jedoch schon früh in eine finanzielle Krise. 1872 wurde es angesicht der drohenden Versteigerung von König Ludwig II. zur dritten Hofbühne gemacht. Von Anfang an standen Operetten auf dem Spielplan. Das Genre Operette war damals erst in der Entwicklungsphase. Daneben standen auch Singspiele auf dem Programm. Zur Eröffnung als Hofbühne spielte man u. a. Jacques Offenbachs Einakter ¿Salon Pitzelberger¿ unter dem Titel ¿Eine musikalische Soirée in der Vorstadt¿. Das Theater erlebte mehrere Operettenuraufführungen. So wurde beispielsweise am 18. Oktober 1874 die Operette Die Fornarina von Carl Zeller, u.a. mit den damaligen Publikumslieblingen Amalie Schönchen, Agnes Lang-Ratthey, Franz Josef Brakl und Max Hofpauer, uraufgeführt.

Excerpt: The Princess Helena (Helena Augusta Victoria: Princess Christian of Schleswig-Holstein by marriage; 25 May 1846 ¿ 9 June 1923) was a member of the British Royal Family, the third daughter and fifth child of Queen Victoria and Prince Albert. Helena was educated by private tutors chosen by her father and his close friend and adviser, Baron Stockmar. Her childhood was spent with her parents, travelling between the variety of royal residences in Britain. The intimate atmosphere of the royal court came to an end on 14 December 1861, when her father died and her mother entered a period of intense mourning. In the early 1860s, Helena began a flirtation with Prince Albert's German librarian, Carl Ruland. Although the nature of the relationship is largely unknown, Helena's romantic letters to Ruland survive. After the Queen found out in 1863, she dismissed Ruland, who returned to his native Germany. Three years later, on 5 July 1866, Helena married the impoverished German Prince Christian of Schleswig-Holstein. The couple remained in Britain, in calling distance of the Queen, who liked to have her daughters nearby, and Helena along with her youngest sister, Princess Beatrice, became the Queen's unofficial secretary. However, after Queen Victoria's death on 22 January 1901, Helena saw relatively little of her surviving siblings. Helena was the most active member of the royal family, carrying out an extensive programme of royal engagements at a time when royalty was not expected to appear often in public. She was also an active patron of charities, and was one of the founding members of the Red Cross. She was founding president of the Royal School of Needlework, and president of the Royal British Nurses' Association. As president of the latter, she was a strong supporter of nurse registration against the advice of Florence Nightingale. She became the first member of her family to celebrate her 50th wedding anniversary in 1916, but her husband died a year later.

Excerpt: Keith Rupert Murdoch, AC, KSG (English pronunciation: ; born 11 March 1931) is an Australian-American media magnate and the Chairman, and CEO of . Beginning with one newspaper in Adelaide, Murdoch acquired and started other publications in his native Australia before expanding News Corp. into the United Kingdom, United States and Asian media markets. Although it was in Australia in the late 1950s that he first dabbled in television, he later sold these assets, and News Corp's Australian current media interests (still mainly in print) are restricted by cross-media ownership rules. Murdoch's first permanent foray into TV was in the USA, where he created Fox Broadcasting Company in 1986. In the 2000s, he became a leading investor in satellite television, the film industry and the Internet, and purchased a leading American newspaper, The Wall Street Journal. Rupert Murdoch was listed three times in the Time 100 as one among the most influential people in the world. He is ranked 13th most powerful person in the world in the 2010 Forbes' The World's Most Powerful People list. With a net worth of US$6.3 billion, he is ranked 117th wealthiest person in the world. Keith Rupert Murdoch was born in Melbourne, the only son of Sir Keith Murdoch and Elisabeth Joy (née Greene). At the time, his father was a regional newspaper magnate based out of Melbourne, and as a result, the family was wealthy. Murdoch was groomed by his father from an early age, and attended the elite Geelong Grammar School. He later read Philosophy, Politics and Economics at Worcester College, Oxford University in the United Kingdom, where he supported the Labour Party. When Murdoch was 22, his father died, prompting his return from Oxford to take charge of the family business; becoming managing director of News Limited in 1953. He began to direct his attention to acquisition and expansion. He bought the Sunday Times in Perth, Western Australia.

Excerpt: Anioma, commonly referred to as Delta Ibo or sometimes Enuani, are a subgroup of the Igbo comprising towns and communities located in Delta State, South-South region of Nigeria. Dr Emmanuel Uduaghan has been the Executive Governor of the State since 2007. The Anioma people for administrative purposes are referred to as Delta North thus contrasting the Delta Central and Delta South densely inhabited by the Urhobo, Ijaw, Itsekiri and Isoko, the other ethnic groups inhabiting the State. The Anioma region has a total population of 1,114,055. The population figure quoted here does not include those of Anioma communities located outside Delta state. These include Ukwani, Enuani, Ika (Agbor), and Aboh. A small Ika population can be found in neighboring Edo State specifically in Igbanke, Oza and Ekpon. The term Anioma means 'Good Land' in Igbo and is also an acronym derived from the four original local governments i.e. (A) for Aniocha, (N) for Ndokwa, (I) for Ika-Igbo, (O) for Oshimili, M and A are common denominators found in the four original local governments. The coinage was made by the founding father, Chief Dennis Osadebay in 1951 and has since remained the preferred indigenous name by which the people collectively refer to themselves. Thus, A-N-I-O-M-A. Sentimentally, there are also Anioma people in Anambra State i.e. Onitsha, Ogbaru, Oba, Akwukwu Obosi, Ozobulu, Ogidi, Oraifite.

Anioma people who had one destiny prior to the coming of the Europeans were balkanized after they lost the Ekumeku War of resistance against the British imperialism in 1914 after 31 years of fighting. Anioma are located in the areas of the West Basin of River Niger, south-south within the present Delta state of Nigeria.

Auszug: Cadzand ist ein Ort im äußersten Südwesten der Niederlande in der Region Zeeuws Vlaanderen an der Grenze zu Belgien. Seit der Gemeindereform 2003 ist Cadzand Teil der Gemeinde Sluis. Sluis ist Teil der Provinz Zeeland. Cadzand besteht aus den Ortsteilen Cadzand-Bad und Cadzand-Dorf und hat derzeit 804 Einwohner. Empfehlenswert ist der landschaftlich reizvolle Radweg an der Küste entlang nach Breskens. Cadzand (früher Cadesant) zählt zu den ältesten Niederlassungen von Zeeuws Vlaanderen. Es war gelegen auf einer Insel in der Nähe des Zwin und wurde umgeben von einem Deich. Im Gebiet des heutigen Cadzand gab es zunächst nur Groden und Priele, die sich in dem ständig aufs Neue überströmten Gebiet gebildet hatten. Die Gegend war damals noch sehr dünn besiedelt und die Menschen, die hier wohnten, werden daher mit Recht als Pioniere des Ackerbaus angesehen, sie waren also Bauern. Sie haben ¿ größtenteils mit blanken Händen ¿ mehr und mehr Polder eingedeicht und dem Meer Land abgerungen. So bildete sich im Laufe vieler Generationen die Polderlandschaft, in der ¿ überall verteilt ¿ große Bauerngehöfte entstanden. Die Ansiedlung Cadesant wird in schriftlichen Überlieferungen zum ersten Mal im Jahre 1111 erwähnt. Ihr Name ist wahrscheinlich auf das Wort 'Cade' zurückzuführen, was man mit 'kleiner Deich' übersetzen könnte. Ganz bestimmt hat ein System von Wällen und Deichen die Insel, auf der Cadesant begründet wurde, vor Überschwemmungen geschützt. Die Gründung der kleinen Ansiedlung wie auch der Bau einer Kapelle oder Kirche war danach die logische Folge. Die Schlacht von Cadzand im Jahr 1337 war eine kleine Schlacht im Hundertjährigen Krieg. Bei dieser Schlacht überfielen die Engländer die kleine flämische Insel Cadzand in der Absicht, eine Reaktion der ortsansässigen Garnison zu provozieren. Durch den einfachen Sieg hoffte Edward III. die Moral in England und die seiner Verbündeten auf dem europäischen Festland zu erhöhen.

Excerpt: The Representation of the People Act 1832 (commonly known as the Reform Act 1832) was an Act of Parliament (2 & 3 Will. IV) that introduced wide-ranging changes to the electoral system of England and Wales. According to its preamble, the act was designed to 'take effectual Measures for correcting divers Abuses that have long prevailed in the Choice of Members to serve in the Commons House of Parliament.' Calls for reform had been mooted long before 1832, but perennially without success. The Act which finally succeeded was proposed by the Whigs led by the Prime Minister Lord Grey. It met with significant opposition from the Pittite factions in Parliament that had governed the country for so long (opposition was especially pronounced in the House of Lords). Nevertheless, as a result of public pressure, the bill was eventually passed. The Act granted seats in the House of Commons to large cities that had sprung up during the Industrial Revolution, and took away seats from the 'rotten boroughs'¿those with very small populations. The Act also increased the number of individuals entitled to vote, increasing the size of the electorate from about 400,000 to 650,000, and allowing a total of one out of six adult males to vote, in a population of some 14 million. The full title is An Act to amend the representation of the people in England and Wales. Its formal short title and citation is the Representation of the People Act 1832 (2 & 3 Wm. IV, c. 45). The Act only applied in England and Wales; separate reform bills were passed in the same year for Scotland and Ireland. Other reform measures were passed later during the 19th century; as a result, the Reform Act 1832 is sometimes called the First, or Great Reform Act. The House of Commons is the lower house of the Parliament of the United KingdomAfter the Act of Union 1800, sometimes referred to as the Act of Union 1801 the unreformed House of Commons was composed of 658 members, of whom 513 represented England and Wales.

Excerpt: Slaughterhouse-Five, or The Children's Crusade: A Duty-Dance with Death (1969) is a science fiction novel by Kurt Vonnegut about World War II experiences and journeys through time of a soldier called Billy Pilgrim. Chaplain's Assistant Billy Pilgrim is a disoriented, fatalistic, and ill-trained American soldier. He does not like wars and he is captured by the Germans during the Battle of the Bulge. The Germans put Billy and his fellow prisoners in a disused slaughterhouse (although there are animal carcasses hanging in the underground shelter) in Dresden. Their building is known as 'Slaughterhouse number 5'. The POWs and German guards alike hide in a deep cellar; because of their safe hiding place, they are some of the few survivors of the city-destroying firestorm during the Bombing of Dresden in World War II. Billy has come 'unstuck in time' and experiences past and future events out of sequence and repetitively, following a nonlinear narrative. He is kidnapped by extraterrestrial aliens from the planet Tralfamadore (. They exhibit him in a zoo with B-movie starlet Montana Wildhack as his mate. The Tralfamadorians, who can see in four dimensions, have already seen every instant of their lives. They say they cannot choose to change anything about their fates, but can choose to concentrate upon any moment in their lives, and Billy becomes convinced of the veracity of their theories. As Billy travels¿or believes he travels¿forward and backward in time, he relives occasions of his life, real and fantasy. He spends time on Tralfamadore, in Dresden, in the War, walking in deep snow before his German capture, in his mundane post-war married life in the U.S.A. of the 1950s and early 1960s, and in the moment of his murder by Lazzaro. Billy's death is the consequence of a string of events. Before the Germans capture Billy, he meets Roland Weary, a jingoist character and bully, just out of childhood like Billy, who constantly chastises him for his lack of enthusiasm toward wBooks on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 32 pp. Englisch.

Auszug: Torsten Lemmer (\* 26. April 1970 in Düsseldorf) ist ein Politiker, Autor, Musikproduzent, Verleger und ehemaliger Rechtsextremist, dessen öffentlicher Ausstieg aus der rechten Szene 2001 Aufmerksamkeit erlangte. Lemmer begann seine politische Karriere 1986 bei den Jungen Liberalen und der FDP. Hier brachte er es als Teil des national-liberalen Flügels bis zum Bundesvorsitzenden der Arbeitsgemeinschaft Liberale Schüler. Gleichzeitig war er Mitglied in der Gemeinschaft Junges Ostpreußen in der Landsmannschaft Ostpreußen. Von 1989 bis 1993 war er Bürgermitglied in einem Düsseldorfer Ratsausschuss, bis Anfang 1993 auch Geschäftsführer und Pressesprecher der Fraktion Freie Wählergemeinschaft (FWG) ¿ einer Abspaltung der Republikaner im Düsseldorfer Stadtrat ¿ sowie stellvertretender Vorsitzender des Vereins Freie Wählergemeinschaft für Düsseldorf e. V. Davor war er für eine andere Republikaner-Abspaltung, die Freiheitliche Volkspartei, als stellvertretender Bundesvorsitzender aktiv. Nachdem die Bildung einer Bündisses aller rechten Kräfte zur Kommunalwahl in Düsseldorf 1994 scheiterte, trat er zunächst parteipolitisch nicht mehr in Erscheinung und konzentrierte sich stattdessen auf den Aufbau seiner Verlage. In den Jahren 1999 bis 2001 suchte Torsten Lemmer wieder vermehrt die öffentliche Bühne, etwa durch von Jan Zobel organisierte Stammtische. Auffälligstes Merkmale war dabei die Vereinnahmung des CDU-Oberbürgermeisters Joachim Erwin. Im Jahre 2001 verkündete Lemmer seinen Ausstieg aus der rechten Szene, dessen Ernsthaftigkeit jedoch verschiedentlich angezweifelt wurde. Selbst nach seiner Heirat mit einer gebürtigen Marokkanerin im Jahr 2002 ebbten entsprechende Zweifel nicht vollständig ab. 2004 bewarb sich Torsten Lemmer ohne Erfolgsaussicht um das Düsseldorfer Oberbürgermeisteramt.

She also received massive media attention over her marriage to Nirvana frontman Kurt Cobain, before and after his suicide in 1994. After an unstable childhood and adolescence, Love sought to form a rock band from an early age, and founded Hole in 1989 at the age of 25. The band released several albums in the 1990s, debuting with Pretty on the Inside (1991), an underground hit, especially in the United Kingdom. The band followed with two highly acclaimed albums, Live Through This (1994) and Celebrity Skin (1998). Love also starred in several films throughout the '90s, most notably The People Vs. Larry Flynt (1996), for which she won a Golden Globe nomination. Hole officially disbanded in 2002, and Love became a media spectacle in the latter part of the decade due to a series of legal troubles and battles with drug addiction, largely amidst the release of her first solo album. In 2007, Love announced her sobriety after a lengthy court-ordered rehab, and began working on a fifth album. In 2009, Love reformed Hole with new members, and released the group's fourth album, Nobody's Daughter (2010). Love has also attracted significant media attention over the years for her wild stage performances and subversive feminism. According to the British newspaper, The Guardian, Rolling Stone once called Love 'the most controversial woman in rock history.' Courtney Michelle Harrison was born in San Francisco, California, the daughter of Linda Carroll, a therapist, and Hank Harrison, a publisher. According to Love, her mother named her after the alcoholic, fledgling debutante protagonist of a 1956 'dime-store novel' called Chocolates for Breakfast by Pamela Moore. Love would discover, in later years, that her biological grandmother was novelist Paula Fox and her great-grandBooks on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 38 pp. Englisch.

Excerpt: A samba school (in Portuguese: Escola de samba) is a club or dancing school. They practice and often perform in huge square-compounds ('quadras de samba') devoted to practicing and exhibiting samba, an African-Brazilian dance. The schools are traditionally associated with a particular neighborhood, often shanty towns ('favela'). Throughout the year the samba schools have various happenings and events, most important of which are rehearsals for the main event which is the yearly carnival. The parades during carnival are a showcase of each 'escola' enhanced by the participation of celebrities, fans and guests who often pay large sums of money for their costumes. Those who choose to only watch the parade may also be charged for the best seats. Each school displays glamour in colorful costumes and floats with special effects and is organized into different segments or 'alas'. The 'alas' represent different components of the school's theme, or 'enredo', as they act out a homage to a myth, historic event or figure, or express their view on a social, environmental or international issue. The 'alas' display distinct costumes or 'fantasias' and also reflect traditional samba school roles developed years ago. Thus, each samba school parade has the 'comissao de frente'; individuals who open the parade by walking in social attires, saluting the crowds; the 'ala das Baianas', or the traditional segment of Bahian African-Brazilian ladies with impressive round dresses spinning through the avenue; the 'puxadores' (lead singers) singing the 'samba-enredo' or theme-song while they play the 'cavaquinho' or other string instruments; the 'velha guarda,' or veterans who made history in the school; the 'bateria', or samba band with drums, 'cuicas' and other instruments, preceded by the 'madrinha da bateria', or band godmother who is often a sexy female celebrity.

Auszug: Als Bergordnung wurde früher im Bergbau ein Gesetz zur Durchsetzung des Bergregals bezeichnet. Die Quellen, welche wir heute als Bergordnung verstehen und die sich selbst als Ordnung und Satzung bezeichnen, entstehen seit der Mitte des 15. Jahrhunderts. Wir müssen sie von den mittelalterlichen (Gewohnheits-)rechtsaufzeichnungen wie dem Goslarer (1271), Iglauer (nach 1270) und Freiberger Recht (älteres Bergrecht nach 1307, jüngeres Bergrecht nach 1346) unterscheiden. Letztere enthalten (private ) Aufzeichnungen bergmännischen Gewohnheitsrecht und können noch nicht als Gesetze betrachtet werden. Einzig das Ius regale montanorum König Wenzels II. von Böhmen zeigt - in starker Anlehnung an römische Traditionen - den Willen zur Gesetzgebung. Damit wird dieses wohl vornehmlich für das Bergrevier Kuttenberg gedachte Gesetz zum frühen Vorläufer der dann von den jeweiligen Regalherren für bestimmte Reviere erlassenen Bergordnungen der frühen Neuzeit. Der Geltungsbereich von Bergordnungen konnte landesweit sein. Zumeist galten Bergordnungen aber nur für kleine Gebiete, wenn der Inhaber des Bergregals ein Territorialfürst war. Bergordnungen konnten auch auf einzelne Bergstädte beschränkt sein oder nur auf bestimmte Minerale. Besonders den frühen Bergordnungen (z.B. für Schneeberg und Annaberg in Sachsen) war nur eine kurze Geltung beschieden. In der Mitte des 19. Jahrhunderts wurden die Bergordnungen durch landesweite Berggesetze ersetzt. Diese Notwendigkeit lässt sich am Beispiel Preußen verdeutlichen, wo nach den Territorialgewinnen durch die Beschlüsse des Wiener Kongresses von 1815 50 verschiedene Bergordnungen galten. Der Inhalt einer Bergordnung bestand im Wesentlichen aus folgenden Teilen: Darin enthalten waren sowohl detaillierte Bestimmungen über den Bergbau, den landesherrlichen Zehnt, den Aufbau der Bergbehörden als auch die Privilegien des Bergstandes.

Excerpt: Robin Miriam Carlsson (born 12 June 1979), better known by her stage name Robyn, is a Swedish recording artist, singer, and songwriter. Robyn became known in the late nineties for her worldwide dance-pop hit 'Do You Know (What It Takes)' from her debut album Robyn Is Here (1997). She co-wrote the song 'Du gör mig hel igen' (You Make Me Whole Again) for Melodifestivalen 1997. The popularity of her #1 hit single 'With Every Heartbeat', and subsequent album release Robyn (2005), brought her mainstream success worldwide. In January 2009 Robyn won a Swedish Grammis award for Best Live Act 2008. Robyn released the first of a trilogy of albums to be released over the course of 2010 titled Body Talk Pt. 1, in June of that year, peaking at #1. It was her first album since Robyn. The album's lead single 'Dancing on My Own' was released a few weeks prior to the album's release, and became a hit single worldwide, and brought her a 53rd Grammy Awards nomination for the category of Best Dance Recording. A follow up album, Body Talk Pt. 2, was released on September 6, entering straight at #1 of the Swedish chart, and the final album of the trilogy, Body Talk, was released on November 22, 2010 with the first single 'Indestructible'. 'Call Your Girlfriend' was the second single to be released from Body Talk. Robyn voiced the character Miranda in the 1989 Swedish-Norwegian animated film The Journey to Melonia. The film, directed by Per Åhlin, is very loosely based on William Shakespeare's The Tempest. She also did the Swedish voice of Anne-Marie in All Dogs Go to Heaven. In 1991, at the age of twelve, Robyn recorded the theme song for the Swedish television show Lilla Sportspegeln, named Du kan alltid bli nummer ett ('You can always be number one'). She performed her first self-written song at this age on another television show, Söndagsöppet. Robyn was rediscovered by Swedish pop singer Meja in the early nineties.

Auszug: BASICODE war ein Computerprojekt mit dem Ziel, einen einheitlichen Sprachstandard für die Programmiersprache BASIC festzulegen. BASIC war zwar auf vielen populären Heimcomputern verbreitet, aber in unzähligen zueinander inkompatiblen Varianten. Das Projekt wurde 1980 von der niederländischen Rundfunkvereinigung Nederlandse Omroep Stichting (NOS) in der Rundfunkserie Hobbyscoop ins Leben gerufen. Die Grundlage des Systems waren rechnerspezifische Zusatzprogramme, welche die Aufrufe der durch den BASICODE-Sprachstandard definierten Subroutinen für die Ein- und Ausgabe von Text, Grafik und Sound entsprechend den technischen Möglichkeiten des jeweiligen Rechners ausführten. Diese als Bascoder bezeichneten Programme ermöglichten darüber hinaus den Programm- und Datenaustausch zwischen verschiedenen Heimcomputerplattformen durch Definition eines einheitlichen Datenformats für die damals als Datenträger üblichen Compact Cassetten. BASICODE wurde oft auch als ¿Esperanto für Computer¿ bezeichnet.

Excerpt: Wilhelm Reich (March 24, 1897 ¿ November 3, 1957) was an Austrian-American psychiatrist and psychoanalyst, known as one of the most radical figures in the history of psychiatry. He was the author of several notable books, including The Mass Psychology of Fascism and Character Analysis, both published in 1933. Reich worked with Sigmund Freud in the 1920s and was a respected analyst for much of his life, focusing on character structure rather than on individual neurotic symptoms. He tried to reconcile Marxism and psychoanalysis, arguing that neurosis is rooted in the physical, sexual, economic, and social conditions of the patient, and promoted adolescent sexuality, the availability of contraceptives, abortion, and divorce, and the importance for women of economic independence. His work influenced a generation of intellectuals, including Saul Bellow, William S. Burroughs, Paul Edwards, Norman Mailer, A. S. Neill, and Robert Anton Wilson, and shaped innovations such as Fritz Perls's Gestalt therapy, Alexander Lowen's bioenergetic analysis, and Arthur Janov's primal therapy. Later in life he became a controversial figure who was both adored and condemned. He began to violate some of the key taboos of psychoanalysis, using touch during sessions, and treating patients in their underwear to improve their 'orgastic potency.' He said he had discovered a primordial cosmic energy, which he said others called God and that he called 'orgone'. He built orgone energy accumulators that his patients sat inside to harness the reputed health benefits, leading to newspaper stories about sex boxes that cured cancer. Reich was living in Germany when Adolf Hitler came to power in January 1933. On March 2 that year the Nazi newspaper Völkischer Beobachter published an attack on one of Reich's pamphlets, The Sexual Struggle of Youth. He left immediately for Vienna, then Scandinavia, moving to the United States in 1939.

Excerpt: Kote Marjanishvili State Drama Theatre (Georgian: ) is the second state theatre in Tbilisi, Georgia. Originally founded in Kutaisi in 1928 by Kote Marjanishvili, the theatre moved to Tbilisi in 1930 to Brothers Zubalashvili Public House, the building it occupies up to date. The roots of Georgian theatre date back to the middle of the second millennium BC. The cult of Dionysius spread widely in ancient Georgia. The proof remains in Vani, Sarkineti and Dzalisi where Dionysius Temples have been discovered, also in Uplistsikhe, the city in rock (3-2 cc. BC) where a theatre building is surrounded with its own stage, orchestra pit and the audience hall. It is clear that antique, theatrical and performing culture was very well known in ancient Georgia. The professional Georgian theatre was founded in 1850 on the initiative of the leading representatives of the Georgian public. Its founder, Giorgi Eristavi, is a famous playwright and writer. His comedies laid the foundation for the Georgian realistic theatre. Currently there are about 40 professional theatre companies in Georgia, but very few are subsidized by the state. Kote Marjanishvili State Drama Theatre was established in Kutaisi in 1928 year and very soon it was titled The Second State Georgian Drama Theatre. It was founded by a great theatre director and reformer of the Georgian theatre by the name of Kote Marjanishvili. He was invited from Russia to implement theatrical reform in Georgia. Marjanishvili played a crucial role in the development of Georgian theatrical life, and is generally credited with navigating a path for modern Georgian theatre. Using established Georgian theatrical traditions, Marjanishvili created a modern theatre in which antique, classical and modern drama existed harmoniously . In a short period of time this theatre achieved success not only in Georgia, but also in guest performances in Kharkov and Moscow. It later moved to Tbilisi. During this period he staged productions such as: 'Hopla, W 28 pp. Englisch.
