Question: Who is the author of Abel?

Carl Abel

Carl Abel (25 November 1837 – 26 November 1906) was a German comparative philologist from Berlin who wrote Linguistic Essays in 1880. Abel also acted as Ilchester lecturer on comparative lexicography at the University of Oxford and as the Berlin correspondent of the Times and the Standard. His 400-page dictionary of Egyptian-Semitic-Indo-European roots appeared in 1886. His essay "On the antithetical meanings of primal words" (Ueber den Gegensinn der Urworte) was discussed by Sigmund Freud in an identically titled piece, which, in turn, was discussed by Jacques Derrida as a precursor to deconstruction's semantic insights. He also translated some of Shakespeare's works into German. He was a son of a successful banker Gerson Abel. Of Jewish descent, he converted to Christianity. Abel died in Wiesbaden. His son Curt Abel-Musgrave (1860-1938) was a writer and translator. His grandson was noted economist Richard Musgrave.

Jordan Abel

Abel, a Nisga'a poet, was born in British Columbia. Formerly a doctoral student at Simon Fraser University in the Department of English, he is currently a professor at the University of Alberta. Abel's work addresses settler-colonialism directly, often through conceptual poetic approaches to overtly colonial texts (for example, Abel's books cut up, sample, and interrupt the Project Gutenberg archive of Western novels and Marius Barbeau's Totem Poles). His first book of poetry, The Place of Scraps (Talonbooks), used as source text the work of 20th century ethnographer Marius Barbeau. It won the Dorothy Livesay Poetry Prize and was a finalist for the Gerald Lampert Award in 2014. His second book, Un/inhabited, was named one of the best 75 books of 2015 by the CBC. Abel's third and most recent book of poetry, Injun, won the Griffin Poetry Prize in 2017. The poems were based on 91 Western novels written during the past three centuries. Abel's memoir NISHGA was published in 2020, and was shortlisted for the 2021 Hilary Weston Writers' Trust Prize for Nonfiction.

Maarten 't Hart

Maarten 't Hart

Maarten 't Hart (born 25 November 1944 in Maassluis) is a Dutch writer. Trained as a biologist in zoology and ethology at the Leiden University, he taught that subject before becoming a full-time writer in the 1980s, having made his debut as a novelist in 1971 under the name Martin Hart with "Stenen voor een ransuil" ("Stones for a Long-Eared Owl").

He is the author of many novels, including "Het Woeden der Gehele Wereld" and "De kroongetuige". His books have been translated into a number of European languages, and he is especially popular in Germany. Three of his novels, " (A Flight of Curlews", trans. 1986), "De aansprekers (Bearers of Bad Tidings", trans. 1983), and " (The Sundial", trans. 2004) have appeared in English, as have a few of his short stories.

The themes of his novels, which often have an autobiographical component, include:
His writings are full of detailed descriptions of nature (e.g. the weather, insects, plants) and show his passionate love for classical music (especially the music of the composers Bach, Mozart and Schubert).

't Hart is supporter of the Party for Animals, and, in 2004, agreed with the party to underline that by becoming a candidate in the European elections. However, for this he needed an official identity document, and he has no driving licence, and had neither a passport nor another identity document (he had not been abroad for 10 years), and, for reasons of principle, did not want to get one for this purpose. He is also a prominent radio and television personality, and a regular contributor to daily newspapers.

He currently lives in Warmond, close to Leiden, with his wife. His chief pastimes are music – he plays the piano and the organ – and reading. He says he reads six books a week, in Dutch, English, German, and French. He knows very little about films and rarely watches one. He does not want to be involved in films based on his books. He was, however, "rat consultant" to Werner Herzog for the film "Nosferatu the Vampyre". This turned out to be a disagreeable experience about which he wrote a story, "Ongewenste zeereis", that appeared in 2004 in "Granta" under the title "Rats".

Moyer, (who) was also destroyed (as his father had been) by the depression."

Eclipse (software)

Eclipse (software)

Eclipse is an integrated development environment (IDE) used in computer programming. It contains a base workspace and an extensible plug-in system for customizing the environment. It is the second-most-popular IDE for Java development, and, until 2016, was the most popular. Eclipse is written mostly in Java and its primary use is for developing Java applications, but it may also be used to develop applications in other programming languages via plug-ins, including Ada, ABAP, C, C++, C#, Clojure, COBOL, D, Erlang, Fortran, Groovy, Haskell, JavaScript, Julia, Lasso, Lua, NATURAL, Perl, PHP, Prolog, Python, R, Ruby (including Ruby on Rails framework), Rust, Scala, and Scheme. It can also be used to develop documents with LaTeX (via a TeXlipse plug-in) and packages for the software Mathematica. Development environments include the Eclipse Java development tools (JDT) for Java and Scala, Eclipse CDT for C/C++, and Eclipse PDT for PHP, among others.

The initial codebase originated from IBM VisualAge. The Eclipse software development kit (SDK), which includes the Java development tools, is meant for Java developers. Users can extend its abilities by installing plug-ins written for the Eclipse Platform, such as development toolkits for other programming languages, and can write and contribute their own plug-in modules. Since the introduction of the OSGi implementation (Equinox) in version 3 of Eclipse, plug-ins can be plugged-stopped dynamically and are termed (OSGI) bundles.

Eclipse software development kit (SDK) is free and open-source software, released under the terms of the Eclipse Public License, although it is incompatible with the GNU General Public License. It was one of the first IDEs to run under GNU Classpath and it runs without problems under IcedTea.

Eclipse of the Sun (novel)

Mary Loudon writing in The Times states that despite never having been to India, the author "has managed with exquisite sensitivity to capture the feel and the tone of the country." Loudon does criticize the novels 'lack of pace and colour', explaining that "To set up a debate about science versus religion in contemporary India is a great idea, but the execution of it is a little slow and a little dry, and to my mind the novel is too long." But she concludes "Nevertheless, Whitaker is a thoughtful and imaginative writer, who bends to his subject and characters with rare humility and commitment. He is yet to find a confident authorial voice and a strong identifying style, but with time he may well do so". James Simmons in The Spectator has no such reservations and

Moving Day (1998 film)

Moving Day is a Canadian comedy short film, directed by Chris Deacon and released in 1998. The film stars Michael McMurtry and Brigitte Gall as Scott and Amy, a couple who are moving in together for the first time, but must cope with relationship anxieties when the process reveals aspects of their personalities that they didn't previously know about each other. The film premiered at the 1998 Toronto International Film Festival.

The Globe and Mail's television critic John Doyle favourably reviewed the film, commenting that "I could see this becoming, say, a six-part sitcom (without a laugh track) that gently mocks young urban couples." The film won the Genie Award for Best Live Action Short Drama at the 20th Genie Awards. It received three Canadian Comedy Award nominations at the 1st Canadian Comedy Awards, for Best Performance by an Actress in a Film (Gall), Best Direction in a Film (Deacon) and Best Writing in a Film (Deacon).

The majority of the second series episodes were written by Paul Minettand Brian Leveson. The first series was produced by Nic Phillips with the second series produced by Ian Hamilton. With a new writing team, producer and executive producer in place, Close to Home's second series dispensed with the recurring character of Helen's new husband Frank.

While most episodes in series one had featured self-contained storylines, James and Vicki's on-off relationship provided a running theme throughout the second series. The first series had been entirely based in the Shepherd household, but this storyline required a substantial amount of location filming at the city farm which Guard's character ran.
