Fêtes Galantes & Songs Without Words are the 2nd and 4th books of poetry by French poet and author Paul Verlaine. Fêtes Galantes (Fêtes Galantes in French) was originally published in 1869. A common theme running through these poems is the scenes, characters, and props of French comedy, semi-civilized pastorals, and commedia dellʼarte, - figures like Harlequin, Colombine, Pierrot, Leandre, the Innamorati, etc., against natural backdrops and dreamy Watteau-like landscapes, with all the appurtenances that one might expect: mandolins, lutes, masques, moonlight, prettily-clad women, moss-covered benches... - interfused with the poetʼs feelings, melancholy, amorous longings, joys, and regrets. Songs Without Words (Romances sans paroles in French) was originally published in 1874. The common theme in these poems is the amorous and sentimental love lost, found, and lost again between the poet and his childhood female cousin, or his child wife, or his new-found friend and fellow poet Arthur Rimbaud against a backdrop of the Ardennes, the Belgian countryside, Brussels, and London.

This unique volume provides a survey of U.S. business history in a chronological framework.

This study develops the calculus which, if used in selecting overseas projects, structuring international enterprises, and resolving operatonal problems, would reduce the area of conflict in business and become a more viable international concept.

The first chronology of worldwide business history, this volume complements Robinson's earlier chronology, United States Business History, 1602-1988. It records representative events in the evolution of business, identifying entrepreneurs, managers, and enterprises, and also records general background events relevant to the marketplace.

The purpose of this book is to clarify the concept of definition and improve defining activities.
