It was founded in 1993, named after the literary journal of the same name, born in 1988 : The Feathered Snake , a reference to Quetzalcóatl, pre-Colombian god of life, fertility and creation. By opening up for the past ten years to a constantly changing world, where writing fiction is no longer the prerogative of Europeans and Americans only; by supporting short stories as a major means of expression and, later, the novel; by taking an interest in the remarkable literature of emerging countries and continents, in the French-speaking literature of the Maghreb, Africa, the Caribbeans and the Indian Ocean, in the literature of young French writers; by exploring South American, Asian, Balkan and Scandinavian literature
Extractions: Here's the revised and updated version of a popular biography of a great entertainer, who, more than any other, had the common touch. Sid James - the man with the dirtiest laugh on film - was one of Britain's best-loved actors. Cliff Goodwin has brought this biography up to date with fresh material, including photographs never seen before. The book encompasses Sid's early years in South Africa, and his time as a ladies hairdresser; his weakness for gambling and women; his questioning by Scotland Yard in a murder case; and the full range of his acting career ("Hancock's Half Hour", the "Carry On" films and many other character parts). If you love old films and classic comedy, you'll be meeting Sid a lot through your TV screen. Why not find out the story behind the legend now?

Composed 16 years after Pollock's death, "Love Affair" is a frank account of the troubled painter's final days, written by his last mistress.

Great Performances: Free To Dance - Biographies - Alvin Ailey US State Departmentsponsored nine-nation tour of africa (1967); and several commandperformances for heads of state and royalty. Brief biographies Alvin Ailey http://www.pbs.org/wnet/freetodance/biographies/ailey.html
Extractions: Several Ailey dances established precedents for American dance. "Feast of Ashes" (1962), created for the Harkness Ballet, is acknowledged as the first successful "pointe" ballet choreographed by a modern dancer. In 1966 Ailey contributed dances for the New York Metropolitan Opera's inaugural production at Lincoln Center, Samuel Barber's "Antony and Cleopatra." In 1970 he created "The River" for American Ballet Theatre. Set to an original score commissioned from Duke Ellington, this ballet convincingly fused theatrical jazz dancing and ballet technique. In 1971 Ailey created the staging for Leonard Bernstein's rock-influenced "Mass", which opened the newly built Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C. Major distinctions and honors followed Ailey throughout his choreographic career, which spanned the creation of more than 50 dances for his own company, American Ballet Theater, the Joffrey Ballet, the Paris Opera Ballet, the London Festival Ballet, and the Royal Danish Ballet. Among his many awards were honorary doctorates in fine arts from Princeton University, Bard College, Adelphi University, and Cedar Crest College; a United Nations Peace Medal, and an NAACP Spingarn Medal, in 1976. In 1988 he was celebrated by the president of the United States for a lifetime of achievement in the arts at the Kennedy Center Honors.
Extractions: Mahalia Jackson Singer Mahalia Jackson has been acclaimed America's greatest gospel singer by world press and publicity. She is certainly the best known, with a career that included television, radio, and concerts. Her early repertoire leaned heavily upon songs of her Baptist beginnings such as "Amazing Grace," and "The Day is Past and Gone." She recorded her first record in May 1937 for Decca, "God's Gonna Separate the Wheat from the Tares," and the Baptist hymn "Keep Me Every Day." From that point on, Jackson's talent and deep-rooted faith ensured that she had the whole world in her hands. Wilfred Mellers, in Gospel Women of the Night, says: "The magnificent voice and the fervent faith are almost inseparable; a voice of such vibrancy, over so wide a range, creates a sound that is as all-embracing, as secure as the womb, from which singer and listener may be reborn."
