But suddenly he got a problem with his leg and had to go to the Bronx V. It was horrible and he compared hospital with a prison. A good friend of Ron Kovic was his cousin Skip.
He talked very much with him about Vietnam and gave him books with topics like racism and other topics. The first time he talked to people about Vietnam was in high school. Ron Kovic and Bobby Muller told other students what war was like. After these speeches he gave up attending university because school seemed no longer important to him. What he really wanted to do was to go on speaking out. He held some other speeches but then Kenny one of his best friends asked him if he wanted to come with him and so they went to Los Angeles. In California he heard of veterans antiwar-demonstrations and his fascination grew.
Ron Kovic became part of this community and his loneliness seemed to vanish. He got a new life-task. It was the chance to show people what wars are really like. Also in television he had the possibility to represent his position. Soon he became very famous and many people, organisations and schools wanted him to speak. It was a kind of therapy for him and whole America. After one speech he became arrested. After coming out of jail he meets a woman called Helen and she begins to love Ron.
She had two children and was divorced. It was the first time after Mexico he was together with a woman. In this book Ron never really came to calmness. He also became depressed because the conflict in his heart never stopped working. Ron Kovic went to the Nixon acceptance speech to protest against the man who has spent the money on war which should be for healing and helping the wounded.
But this protest was unheard. Ron and his friends were happy to have interrupted the president.
It was their kind of protest. Everything happened too quickly and it was an accident. After talking with the major Ron felt much better.
The big mistake what happened when many Vietnamese children died is also reported to us. These soldiers who accidentally killed the children even cried. Ron Kovic had to experience very hard and cruel things but he came to the decision that life must go on. This book shows how easy the life of a young teenager can be destroyed.
The Vietnam War cost many young soldiers and was a big illusion. Teenagers wanted to serve for their country and wanted to be heroes. It is unimaginable how difficult life is when you loose a leg or become paralysed. And the sad thing was that a big part of the nation stood behind this cruel war. Ron Kovic showed the situation after a war very well and he tries with his book to give us an impression how precious the human life is. Ron Kovic tried to tell the nation how senseless wars are but nobody listened.
I think he had to finish his fight with himself and to handle his own conflict. And I also mean that he accepted himself again at the end of the book. He always wanted to be a hero but the society showed him the opposite. The real fight for him was the fight after the war when nobody understood him and nobody showed any kind of respect. I think this book surely helped many people to cope with their situation and they maybe got the feeling that also other humans had to experience much.
The wrong way is trying to forget it and never to talk about it. Personally I think that the book was written a little bit too complicated for me but the topic it dealt with was very good and is still today very important. Wagner in McFarlane Further categorisations by Dudley Andrews and Michael Klein with Gillian Parker suggest a similar system with corresponding definitions. As each considered adaptation approached the novel differently, the representations of Pemberley vary. In the novel, a detailed description of the nature and beauty Elizabeth perceives at her arrival at the estate is given.
Walking through it, Elizabeth suddenly meets Darcy and is surprised at his politeness. Already on their way to the estate, the filmmakers of the series focus on the presentation of landscape. When reaching the estate, the building is framed by a lake, trees and bushes. What differs to the novel is the added scene of Darcy leaping into a naturalistic pond before surprisingly meeting Elizabeth at Pemberley. A remarkable distinction between the novel and the version is that before their arrival at Pemberley, Elizabeth climbs up some hills to view the landscape.
As soon as they approach Pemberley, the nature and the building are shown. Instead of a picture gallery like in the novel, the camera presents Elizabeth touring an art gallery, where she encounters a marble bust of Darcy. In this adaptation Elizabeth also looks outside a window which presents the grounds of Pemberley. Different to the novel and the BBC-series, Elizabeth encounters Darcy in a music room instead of the garden.
Unlike the novel or the other two adaptations, Bridget does not unexpectedly encounter Darcy but directly asks him for a talk. As these short summaries of the adapted Pemberley-scenes demonstrate, adaptations can vary either faintly or immensely depending on the category of adaptation. The most modernised version focuses on wealth. However, the three themes - nature, sexuality, and wealth - are not exclusively bound to one of the adaptations.
Due to different forms of storytelling, the original source can always be changed into a plenitude of other forms. Mostly, narratives are the basis and get adapted into plays, audio dramas or films, to name a few. These approaches regard categories of adaptation, differences between a narrative and an adaptation, and film theory, as the latter one is important to know the effects of varying camera perspectives, shots or sounds when analysing an adaptation. As already mentioned in the introduction, adaptations can be categorised due to their fidelity and precision in relation to the source text.
One organisation of adaptation-forms is offered by Geoffrey Wagner. This form of adaptation provides the most artistic freedom for the filmmaker in comparison to the other two categories. This category focuses on the variations between the adaptation and the original cf.
However, topics can appear redirected in this form of adaptation for example if the filmmaker wishes to highlight a different purpose. This category assumes that the interpretation of a story is rendered as it is but in another form of art. Aside from that, Michael Klein and Gillian Parker also organise adaptations in a similar manner.
Thus, all three suggestions for categorisation- systems concord and correspond by respectively offering three forms of adaptations with sense-identical explanations, providing each with a creative, a partially revised and a faithful category. Fidelity relates to how much variation between the original and its adaptation exists, whether scenes are added or left out, what is present and what is absent. This alludes to the existing diversity of adaptations of their novels.
Fidelity and infidelity are described based on similarities and differences between the source and the adapted counterpart. Thus, although an analogy deviates mostly from its original in comparison to other categories, it is still interconnected to its narrative source.
Consequently, adaptations can be organised in three categories. Several theorists labelled these diversely, however, they more or less all mean the same. Not only a narrative can be the basis for an adaptation, but also an already adapted audio-visual version of a novel can be re-adapted. Being acquainted with both, a viewer most likely will realise the differences or variations between the two audio- visual adaptations.
Instead of covering topics that have been of decisive importance a decade ago in an earlier text, the latter adaptation usually picks up themes that are important to the current target group. An interrelation between the original and its adaptations always exists as long as the adaptation is identified as such. Consequently, as soon as an adaptation is considered as an adaptation, the recipient incorporates his understanding and interpretation of the original work.
Besides, as a novel and a film share the narrative, this obviously is the part which is transferred to the adaptations cf. By updating the original, filmmakers address the contemporary audience with modern themes and topics. Otherwise, a story would always resemble the original and people would not want to watch the adaptation. Hence, an original can always be changed and adapted to a contemporary status while still conveying the initial story.
Key Findings are given as well as major publications and a Link to the Study website. Communication between deaf people is different from that of people with normal hearing. They use, for example, deaf language sign language. Students should try to put themselves in the position of a deaf person and thus become aware of the restrictions experienced in ;normal everyday life by people with hearing loss.
Can be used as basis for discussion. How should I behave towards people with such problems? What must I pay attention to?
Where and how can I be of help? Strictly speaking, energy is stored not only in molecular movements and vibrations but also in the transition between physical states. During evaporation and condensation, water absorbs and releases a relatively large amount of energy owing to the strong hydrogen bridge bonds. As background for the topic water as a means of energy storage and water in power generation , which is also important for thermal power engines, such as the steam engine. Even without going into thermodynamics, it is clear where steam engines get their energy from: The superheated steam contains a great deal of energy.
Given the same volume, this corresponds to a high pressure that can move a piston. Where else could such software be used? What are the benefits for various users? How does screen reading software work? What does this have to do with speech and speech synthesis? How does the historical ;speaking machine differ from the computer program?

Software of this kind is increasingly being used by young people as well. The paper thus covers a relevant topic and could be used as a basis in lessons ranging from language to information technology. In a recorded story or play, one or several people narrators tell a story and the appropriate background noises are created. In a school project, there should be as many speaking roles as possible. In addition, sound makers are needed who make sure there is the necessary atmosphere, tension and excitement.
The story can be performed live or recorded with the help of a computer or a cassette recorder. Structure and function of a sensory organ Senses discover the environment Games to practise using the senses. The pitch-frequent alternating current supplied by an amplifier flows through a coil in the loudspeaker. In so-called dynamic loudspeakers, this coil is in a ring-shaped permanent magnetic field. The coil is connected to a diaphragm.
Through the passage of the alternating current, forces now begin to have an effect on the coil which is moved to and fro in time with the pitch frequency. The diaphragm is moved and transmits its vibration to the air, the sound is emitted. The process of electroacoustic sound transduction can be explained very well to the students with the help of a technical device that is familiar to all of them. Furthermore, the production and propagation of sound waves ; important in human physiology for hearing and speaking ; can be shown.
Communication and understanding Vibrations and waves Acoustic phenomena. A funnel collects and amplifies the sound when it is heard. When speaking a larger volume of air can be stimulated to vibrate as well resonance. It is then concentrated on a smaller area of space.
