The Enchantress
Author: Harry Smith
Publisher: Createspace Independent Publishing Platform
ISBN: 9781542596244
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 86
Book Description
This often over looked Victor Herbert musical was considered at the time when it was first produced one of Herbert's best scores. Critics hailed the play as "all that a musical show should be." Critics also acknowledged the book by Harry B. Smith, the forefather of today's modern musical, as "excellent" with "a consistently interesting and engaging story" of a Prince who is enchanted by a commoner, a beautiful actress. If he marries her he must forfeit his kingdom thus causing the serio-comic plotting on the part of spies, conspirators, and ambitious Princesses. First produced in 1911, the musical is one of the few successful Herbert scores which lacked a significant revival after its initial production.

The Terrorist Album
Author: Jacob Dlamini
Publisher: Harvard University Press
ISBN: 0674916557
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 401
Book Description
An award-winning historian and journalist tells the very human story of apartheid’s afterlife, tracing the fates of South African insurgents, collaborators, and the security police through the tale of the clandestine photo album used to target apartheid’s enemies. From the 1960s until the early 1990s, the South African security police and counterinsurgency units collected over 7,000 photographs of apartheid’s enemies. The political rogue’s gallery was known as the “terrorist album,” copies of which were distributed covertly to police stations throughout the country. Many who appeared in the album were targeted for surveillance. Sometimes the security police tried to turn them; sometimes the goal was elimination. All of the albums were ordered destroyed when apartheid’s violent collapse began. But three copies survived the memory purge. With full access to one of these surviving albums, award-winning South African historian and journalist Jacob Dlamini investigates the story behind these images: their origins, how they were used, and the lives they changed. Extensive interviews with former targets and their family members testify to the brutal and often careless work of the police. Although the police certainly hunted down resisters, the terrorist album also contains mug shots of bystanders and even regime supporters. Their inclusion is a stark reminder that apartheid’s guardians were not the efficient, if morally compromised, law enforcers of legend but rather blundering agents of racial panic. With particular attentiveness to the afterlife of apartheid, Dlamini uncovers the stories of former insurgents disenchanted with today’s South Africa, former collaborators seeking forgiveness, and former security police reinventing themselves as South Africa’s newest export: “security consultants” serving as mercenaries for Western nations and multinational corporations. The Terrorist Album is a brilliant evocation of apartheid’s tragic caprice, ultimate failure, and grim legacy.
