TEXAS 《摄影中的得克萨斯》 fb2 免费 lrf 下载 kindle azw3 pdf 阿里云

The only state once recognized by the U.S.gov-ernment as an independent country.Texas is still more a nation than a state in many ways.It's larg-er than several European nations combined,with an amaxingly varied landscape and population.

Since the fall of the Alamo,the Lone Star State has been the site of historic collisions:between the Old South and the New West,be-tween the Anglo culture of North America and the Hispanic culture of Latin America,between persistent small-town values and the glittering internationalism of Houston and Dallas.Yet its citizens are all Texans first,united by a storied past of epic battles,rangers and rustlers,cattle barons,wildcatters,and wheeler-dealers.

The Texas Myth also embraces legendary sports teams and the fans that cheer them on; a down-home cuisine featuring Tex-Mex,chili,and rancn-style barbecue; and colorful politics across the spectrum,including outspoken liberals like Lyndon Johnson and former governor Ann Richards.Oil and cattle wealth built a legacy of achieve-ment in the arts:Texas boasts some of the nation's leading museums as well as stellar opera,theater,and dance companies.Equally celebrated are Texas folk arts.Influential performers and trends in popular music are born here:Buddy Holly,Willie Nelson,and Lyle Lovett ,to name just a few.And the Texas Myth has long enthralled movie and TV audiences,from Red River and Giant ot The Last Picture Show,Dallas,and Larry McMurtry's Lonesome Dove.
