Topic: Gumpert


In the News (Sun 29 Nov 09)

  
  Bryn Mawr Classical Review 2002.08.18
Gumpert suggests that all of these methods of recuperating the past are variations on "graft." The study concludes with a brief treatment of Helen in modern Greek poetry.
Gumpert argues that with these exempla, which were always from the distant past, the poet simultaneously reveals and nullifies his estrangement from the past (since the poet re-enacts the amorous and literary exploits of figures from antiquity).
Gumpert argues that what is at issue in the sonnets is not passion for or praise of Helen but the "replication and dissemination of phantom or supplementary Helens (Helen, for example, as a portrait, name, dream, gaze, letter, public figure, poem, myth) pieced together out of premanufactured parts" (162).

 JBooks.com - Non-Fiction: Telling the Tale of Inge
Ten years later, Gumpert acquired the manuscript from his cousin, Inge’s adoptive daughter, Julie, and was so energized by having learned more about his aunt that he was determined to “learn more about her experiences and fill in gaps in her manuscripts….
Gumpert, himself an accomplished writer and editor, is undoubtedly thrilled with the result, a well-crafted, readable, honest, heartbreaking portrait of what his aunt endured during her childhood.
In that sense, Gumpert’s role seems similar to that of a paleontologist—called in to analyze the fossilized fragments of a life that remain visible, to identify the components and to use scientific conjecture to conjure the total picture for the lay audience.

Gumpert served as professor at the Leipzig Conservatory and as principal hornist of the Gewandhaus Orchestra from 1864 until 1898 [Morley-Pegge, 2nd ed., 173] His equally famous student, German-American hornist Anton Horner (1877-1971, for many years principal hornist of the Philadelphia orchestra), recalled in 1956 the manner in which Fr.
[Gumpert] had no use for the B-flat horn which was coming into use in Germany at that time; but he did advocate changing crooks or slides to G, A, and B-flat horn for some compositions.
However, it is doubtful that this system was known to Edmund Gumpert, as the central issue for Gumpert was that of combining the F and B-flat horns into one instrument, not correcting for theoretical intonation problems].

 WPI Venture Forum - Monthly Programs - March 2004   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
For David Gumpert, president of Gumpert Communications, Inc., this change resulted from observing too many entrepreneurs commit huge amounts of time and energy to preparing a written business plan in the belief this was essential to obtaining investor interest, and then coming up empty.
Although he doesn’t suggest entirely scrapping the idea, Gumpert says the cost of writing a business plan in terms of time, energy and opportunity could be directed toward more productive activities that would attract investment interest and improve the odds of business success.
At the March Forum meeting, Gumpert will suggest an alternative path, a more flexible approach that allows entrepreneurs to build their businesses in ways that are likely to attract investment.
