Encounters 1 A Cognitive Approach to Advanced Chinese

Liu, Jennifer Li-Chia

Drawing upon the sciences of acoustics, linguistics, and physiology, D. Ralph Appelman advances a system of teaching voice based on the International Phonetic Alphabet. His premises are that vocal pedagogy requires an understanding of physiological and physical processes; that the singer and the voice teacher need pedagogical tools to link this scientific knowledge with the art of vocalization; that the word in the art song provides such a tool, for it conveys the primary meaning of the utterance; that the art song, therefore, demands intelligibility as well as beauty; and that if the art song is to attain the aesthetic level demanded by the music and the text, the singer must master a refined and orderly vocal system. 
Liberally illustrated with photographs, x-rays, spectrograms, palatograms, charts, drill materials, and drawings, this text develops the total process of disciplined vocal utterance, progressing from the physiological aspects of phonation to the elements of aesthetic interpretation and the art of combining the two in song.

Disaster Response and Planning for Libraries

Disaster Response and Planning For Libraries

With their vast, often irreplaceable holdings of books and journals, audio and video tapes, CD-ROMS and computers, libraries are particularly vulnerable to disasters of all types. Whether, fire, flood, tornado or earthquake, disasters can not only damage equipment and bring services to a grinding halt, they can also destroy collections built over scores of years. Librarians simply cannot afford to be caught off guard. "Disaster Response and Planning for Libraries" helps libraries survive, revive and thrive following a disaster. In outlining a customized disaster response plan that assists in quick recoveries, this straightforward resource also provides strategies to minimize damage and protect resources before trouble strikes. This book describes the four key phases in disaster preparedness: response, recovery, prevention and planning. Detailed case studies demonstrate how different libraries have recovered from a variety of disasters.
