Virgil Thomson - Biography
Biography, key works, articles, review.
http://www.schirmer.com/composers/thomson_bio.html

Extractions: Virgil Thomson, whose centennial we celebrate in 1996, was a many faceted American composer of great originality and a music critic of singular brilliance. Born in Kansas City, Missouri on 25 November 1896, Thomson studied at Harvard. After a prolonged period in Paris where he studied with Nadia Boulanger and met Cocteau, Stravinsky, Satie, and the artists of Les Six, he returned to the United States where he was chief music critic for the New York Herald Tribune. Virgil Thomson composed in almost every genre of music. Utilizing a musical style marked by sharp wit and overt playfulness, Thomson produced a highly original body of work rooted in American speech rhythms and hymnbook harmony. His music was most influenced by Satie's ideals of clarity, simplicity, irony, and humor. Among his most famous works are the operas Four Saints in Three Acts and The Mother of Us All (both with texts by Gertrude Stein with whom he formed a legendary artistic collaboration), scores to The Plow That Broke the Plains and The River (films by Pare Lorentz), and Louisiana Story (film by Robert Flaherty). In addition to his compositions, he was the author of eight books, including an autobiography. Included in his many honors and awards are the Pulitzer Prize, a Brandeis Award, the gold medal for music from the American Academy and Institute of Arts and Letters, the National Book Circle Award, the Kennedy Center Honors, the National Music Council Award, and 20 honorary doctorates.

Hello, I'm virgilSimons, welcome to my Online Guide to Fighting Prostate Cancer.
http://www.prostate-online.com/

Extractions: Hello, I'm Virgil Simons, welcome to my On-line Guide to Fighting Prostate Cancer . At the age of 48, after the results of my first PSA test, I was told that I might have prostate cancer. Staring into an abyss that seemed without hope, I questioned - was I going to die of cancer as my mother had?.......what treatments were possible?......could I survive?! After a sufficient period of anger, self-pity and general confusion I made a decision - I AM GOING TO LIVE!!!! From that point on it was a matter of whether it would be on my terms or the prostate cancer's. KNOWLEDGE would be the edge to tip the balance to my favor - . But where to look, who to believe Then I saw my computer and the answer was evident and manifest - use this information highway as the road to save my own life. In the eight years since that first diagnosis, through to a successful radical prostatectomy and subsequent clean PSA's, access to the Internet provided me with the information, dialogue with health care professionals and other survivors needed to regain control of my life. I became a partner with my doctors in deciding what was the best treatment for me that would be the greatest chance for cure and retention of the quality-of-life I desired!!

Virgil Finlay Biography
An illustrated biography.
http://www.bpib.com/illustrat/finlay.htm

Extractions: Virgil Finlay was born July 23, 1914 in Rochester, New York. He was a star athlete in high school who went home after school and wrote poetry and drew pictures. Very little of his poetry ever saw print, but upwards to 2800 drawings and paintings, most printed on cheap pulp paper, made him the most famous fantasy illustrator of mid-twentieth century. (We'll give Frank Frazetta that honor for the last third.) How he ever managed to produce that quantity of quality images is a mind-boggling mystery once his techniques are explored. And how he could stipple. Finlay had discovered science fiction with Amazing Stories in 1927 and horror and fantasy with Weird Tales in 1928. He preferred the later and by 1935 he was confident enough that he could provide better illustrations that he sent six unsolicited drawings to Farnsworth Wright, the editor of Weird Tales pulp. Finlay's stippling ability almost lost him the job as Wright was uncertain that such fine dots would reproduce on the cheap pulp paper. Fortunately a test print proved acceptable. Enough of the detail remained to provide the readers with the rare experience of seeing a new artistic genius explode fully developed onto the scene. He had four illustrations in that issue. It was December of 1935. Finlay was 21. December 1935 Weird Tales Finlay's work was an immediate hit with the readers and the writers. Readers wrote in praising the illustrations. H.P. Lovecraft wrote him fan letters and even composed a poem about his art. Finlay was a fan of the genre as well as one of the most talented artists to enter the field. These combined to provide his work with a power and grace unknown in the pulps. The stippling, fine hatching and pebble board were all used in conjunction to give his images a texture and depth beyond anything ever seen in the field. It's hard to show the degree of detail of his drawings here on the web, but if you click on the small image at left you can get a fair idea of the effort he put into his art.

Welcome! wet-behind-the-ears kid , being raised on ranches in and around the mountains of Globe, Arizona. As time went on, I got more and more interested in this thing called art, and started dabbling in oils and watercolors. Raising a family at that time did not afford me the possibility of taking classes, so I started reading books and studying paintings by famous artists and well known teachers in my spare time, in an effort to teach myself how to create a piece of artwork. After the ump-teenth time of ruining a perfectly good canvas, I eventually wound up with a pencil in my hand. I just couldnt find any earthly reason to bother with all of those confusing colors. Deer and Elk were plentiful and there was never a shortage of venison in the freezer.
Aelius Donatus, "Life Of Virgil"
Aelius Donatus Life of virgil tr. David WilsonOkamura But then, a short timeafterward, virgil made his way from Cremona to the city of Milan.
http://virgil.org/vitae/

Extractions: About the author. Aelius Donatus ( fl. 350) was a teacher of grammar and rhetoric. In the middle ages, he was probably best known as the author of a standard textbook; by the fourteenth century, his name had become a synonym for "grammar." With the exception of some fragments preserved in Servius, the vita translated below is all that survives of Donatus' commentary on the poems of Virgilnot to be confused with the Interpretationes attributed to Tiberius Claudius Donatus ( fl About the Life of Virgil A commentary on Virgil's poetry follows the Life proper, but breaks off after the Eclogues . Most of the biographical material is generally thought to derive from a lost vita by Suetonius. Donatus in turn became the main source for later biographers, some of whom returned the favor by filling out the text of his Life with interpolations of various kinds.
