In publicity and mystique he was dubbed the "women's director" for guiding the most sensitive leading ladies to immortal performances, including Greta Garbo, Ingrid Bergman, Judy Garland, and--in ten films, among them The Philadelphia Story and Adam's Rib--his lifelong friend and collaborator Katharine Hepburn. But behind the "women's director" label lurked the open secret that set Cukor apart from a generally macho fraternity of directors: he was a homosexual, a rarity among the top echelon. Patrick McGilligan's biography reveals how Cukor persevered within a system fraught with bigotry while becoming one of Hollywood's consummate filmmakers."--Provided by publisher.Motion picture producers and directorsUnited StatesBiographyGay menBiographyMotion picture producers and directorsGay men791.43/0233/092BBIO005000ART057000PER004030bisacshMcGilligan Patrick554684MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910790692503321George Cukor3818796UNINA05308nam 22007815 450 991029977730332120251113195032.03-319-16637-910.1007/978-3-319-16637-7(CKB)3710000000393504(EBL)2095780(SSID)ssj0001501483(PQKBManifestationID)11830601(PQKBTitleCode)TC0001501483(PQKBWorkID)11446795(PQKB)10186816(DE-He213)978-3-319-16637-7(MiAaPQ)EBC2095780(PPN)185487769(MiAaPQ)EBC3109255(EXLCZ)99371000000039350420150404d2015 u| 0engur|n|---|||||txtccrFrom Particle Systems to Partial Differential Equations II Particle Systems and PDEs II, Braga, Portugal, December 2013 /edited by Patrícia Gonçalves, Ana Jacinta Soares1st ed. 2015.Cham :Springer International Publishing :Imprint: Springer,2015.1 online resource (395 p.)Springer Proceedings in Mathematics & Statistics,2194-1017 ;129Description based upon print version of record.3-319-16636-0 Includes bibliographical references.Part I Mini-Courses: C.

It covers topics ranging from interacting particle systems to partial differential equations (PDEs), statistical mechanics and dynamical systems. The purpose of the second meeting on Particle Systems and PDEs was to bring together renowned researchers working actively in the respective fields, to discuss their topics of expertise and to present recent scientific results in both areas. Further, the meeting was intended to present the subject of interacting particle systems, its roots in and impacts on the field of physics, and its relation with PDEs to a vast and varied public, including young researchers. The book also includes the notes from two mini-courses presented at the conference, allowing readers who are less familiar with these areas of mathematics to more easily approach them. The contributions will be of interest to mathematicians, theoretical physicists and other researchers interested in interacting particle systems, partial differential equations, statistical mechanics, stochastic processes, kinetic theory, dynamical systems and mathematical modeling aspects.Springer Proceedings in Mathematics & Statistics,2194-1017 ;129Differential equationsMathematicsProbabilitiesMathematical physicsDifferential EquationsApplications of MathematicsProbability TheoryTheoretical, Mathematical and Computational PhysicsMathematical Methods in PhysicsDifferential equations.Mathematics.Probabilities.Mathematical physics.Differential Equations.Applications of Mathematics.Probability Theory.Theoretical, Mathematical and Computational Physics.Mathematical Methods in Physics.510515.353519519.2530.1530.15Gonçalves Patríciaedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtSoares Ana Jacintaedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtBOOK9910299777303321From Particle Systems to Partial Differential Equations II2499093UNINA
