Book Description
Excerpt from Recommendations and General Plans for a Comprehensive Passenger Subway System for the City of Chicago: Made and Submitted to Honorable Fred A. Busse, Mayor and Honorable Milton J. Foreman, Chairman and the Members of the Committee on Local Transportation of the City Council of the City of Chicago Plan No. 1, as shown in its developed state on Map No. VII, seems to me to best fulfill these conditions and, if a subway is to be built, I recommend its construction in the steps, or stages, set forth in the report and as shown on Maps I, II, III, IV, V, VI, VII and VIII. Full information regarding foundations, underground utilities, occupancy of sub-sidewalk space, character of soils, and other difficulties which would be encountered in the construction of subways in the present business district, has been compiled, but it has not been thought best to go to the expense of preparing full detailed con struction plans for the various subways discussed until it has been definitely decided by the city just what part of the subway system will first be built. It has, how ever, been necessary to prepare many general and de tailed plans in order to reach the conclusions submitted herewith and in preparing these plans the exhaustive information relating to the above subjects embodied in the report of your committee compiled under the direc tion of City Engineer John Ericson, by the late Thomas T. Johnston and his assistants, several of whom have been retained by me on this work, has been of value and has been freely used.

The Shoah on Screen
Author: Anne-Marie Baron
Publisher: Council of Europe
ISBN: 9287159602
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 128
Book Description
This publication considers how cinema, as a major modern art form, has covered topics relating to the Holocaust in documentaries and fiction, historical reconstructions and more symbolic films, focusing on the question of realism in ethical and artistic terms. It explores a range of issues, including whether cinema is an appropriate method for informing people about the Holocaust compared to other media such as CD-ROMs, video or archive collections; whether it is possible to inform and appeal to the emotions without being explicit; and how the medium can nurture greater sensitivity among increasingly younger audiences which have been inured by the many images of violence conveyed in the media. Films discussed include Schindler's List, Life is Beautiful, The Pianist, Sophie's Choice, Shoah, Au revoir les enfants, The Great Dictator and To Be or Not to Be.
