《中国美术院校教材：潘思同水彩画直观教材选》所介绍的是潘思同20世纪五、六十年代在浙江美术学院水彩画教学中使用的部分直观教材。所谓直观教材就是上课时的图示和示范作品。由于上课的教学时间有限，不可能在课堂里做大量示范，所以在每堂课上课之前，作为备课，潘思同都要针对一、二个问题，画一些直观教材，上面配备必要的文字说明，一方面为了节省时间，另一方面也为了取得视觉效果。在直观教材中，有些图本身就是独立的作品，因此，下课后学生常常争先恐后地拿去观摩、临摹。对这些直观教材，学生反应很好，有些青年教师也常借去作为参考。当时许多同行建议让这些教材印刷出版，但由于当时彩色印刷费用高昂，会大大提高书价，而且印刷质量也大有问题，如果采用黑白图版则大大削弱教材的直观效果，因而始终未能出版面世1993年，“

In Stardust Melodies, Will Friedwald takes each of theselegendary songs apart and puts it together again, with a staggeringwealth of detail and unprecedented understanding. Each chapter gives us an extended history of onesong—the circumstances under which it was written and firstperformed—and then explores its musical and lyric content. Drawingon his vast knowledge of records and the careers of performingartists, Friedwald tells us who was responsible for making thesesongs famous and discusses in depth the performers who have lefttheir unique marks on them. He writes about variations inperformance style, about both classic and obscure versions of thesongs, about brilliantly original interpretations and ghastlytravesties. And then there’s the completely unexpected, like StanFreberg’s politically correct “Elderly Man River.” This is a book for all lovers of American songto explore, argue with, and savor.

Stanley Spencer was the most intensely local of all greatartists, and his native village of Cookham was a central source ofinspiration.

This book celebrates both the range and the powerfulindividual quality of Spencer's achievements as a religiousvisionary, war artist, portrait painter and landscapist.
