Book Synopsis Out of This World by : Rachel S. Cordasco
Download or read book Out of This World written by Rachel S. Cordasco and published by University of Illinois Press. This book was released on 2021-12-28 with total page 451 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The twenty-first century has witnessed an explosion of speculative fiction in translation (SFT). Rachel Cordasco examines speculative fiction published in English translation since 1960, ranging from Soviet-era fiction to the Arabic-language dystopias that emerged following the Iraq War. Individual chapters on SFT from Korean, Czech, Finnish, and eleven other source languages feature an introduction by an expert in the language's speculative fiction tradition and its present-day output. Cordasco then breaks down each chapter by subgenre--including science fiction, fantasy, and horror--to guide readers toward the kinds of works that most interest them. Her discussion of available SFT stands alongside an analysis of how various subgenres emerged and developed in a given language. She also examines the reasons a given subgenre has been translated into English. An informative and one-of-a-kind guide, Out of This World offers readers and scholars alike a tour of speculative fiction's new globalized era.

Download or read book Contemporary World Fiction written by Juris Dilevko and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2011-03-17 with total page 554 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This much-needed guide to translated literature offers readers the opportunity to hear from, learn about, and perhaps better understand our shrinking world from the perspective of insiders from many cultures and traditions. In a globalized world, knowledge about non-North American societies and cultures is a must. Contemporary World Fiction: A Guide to Literature in Translation provides an overview of the tremendous range and scope of translated world fiction available in English. In so doing, it will help readers get a sense of the vast world beyond North America that is conveyed by fiction titles from dozens of countries and language traditions. Within the guide, approximately 1,000 contemporary non-English-language fiction titles are fully annotated and thousands of others are listed. Organization is primarily by language, as language often reflects cultural cohesion better than national borders or geographies, but also by country and culture. In addition to contemporary titles, each chapter features a brief overview of earlier translated fiction from the group. The guide also provides in-depth bibliographic essays for each chapter that will enable librarians and library users to further explore the literature of numerous languages and cultural traditions.
Book Synopsis Simplicissimus by : Johann Grimmelshausen
Download or read book Simplicissimus written by Johann Grimmelshausen and published by SCB Distributors. This book was released on 2010-11-14 with total page 513 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mike Mitchell�s translation of Simplicissimus was shortlisted for the Oxford Weidenfeld Translation Prize. �It is a violent and often all-too-realistic picaresque, set in war-torn Europe during the 17th-century Thirty Years War. Simplicissimus is the eternal innocent, the simple-minded survivor, and we follow him from a childhood in which he loses his parents to the casual atrocities of occupying troops, through his own soldiering adventures, and up to his final vocation as a hermit alone on an island. It is Rabelasian in some respects, but more down to earth and melancholy.” Phil Baker in The Sunday Times �It is the rarest kind of monument to life and literature, for it has survived almost three centuries and will survive many more. It is a story of the most basic kind of grandeur - gaudy, wild, raw, amusing, rollicking and ragged, boiling with life, on intimate terms with death and evil - but in the end, contrite and fully tired of a world wasting itself in blood, pillage and lust, but immortal in the miserable splendour of its sins.” Thomas Mann
Book Synopsis The Life of Courage by : Mike Mitchell
Download or read book The Life of Courage written by Mike Mitchell and published by SCB Distributors. This book was released on 2010-09-27 with total page 167 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A companion volume to Simplicissimus: the story of young girl named Courage, caught up in the turmoil of the Thirty Years' War, who survives, even prospers, by the use of her native cunning and sexual attraction. Completely amoral, she flits through a succession of husbands and lovers and ends her life with a band of Gypsies. The conceit here is that Courage supposedly tells her story to get back at Simplicissimus, who treats her dismissively in his own memoirs. This is a remorseless tale of lechery, knavery and trickery.

Download or read book The Dream Maker written by Mikka Haugaard and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "I am a liar," thought Max, dreamily forking his antipasto. "I knew lies before I knew sex, before I knew money. I am married to lies. And I shall stay married. I have made too many promises to do anything else." But Max has told too many lies, and he is beginning to lose his nerve. He thinks he has lost control -- but where? Has it happened in New York, Saint Petersburg, London, Buenos Aires, or here in Rome? And who wants to betray this charismatic gargoyle of a man with his alluring chatter and benevolent presence which compensate for his size? Max knows the answer: too many. The story of Max is told by Rachel. Max is fictitious and it is the Max trilogy which made Rachel rich until she lost everything. Now lying in bed, like Sheherazade in The Thousand and One Nights, she tells the story of Max, as well as her own story, which is also the story of Tina Faithful and le Comte de Braband: a story of love, death and betrayal. The Dream Maker is a dark comedy, rich in ambiguity, in which nothing is quite what it seems.

Book Synopsis Les Favorites des Salons for Classical Guitar by : Fernando Sor
Download or read book Les Favorites des Salons for Classical Guitar written by Fernando Sor and published by Clear Note Publications. This book was released on 2022-06-13 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Virtuoso guitarist Fernando Sor (1778-1839) was also one of the instrument's preeminent composers. In addition he composed many works for other instruments in the forms of symphonies, ballet music, string quartets, and sacred vocal music among others. Although these works were often more popular at the time of their creation it is only his guitar works that are performed or recorded with any regularity today. Sor's life and career can essentially be divided into five periods associated with his residences in Spain (1778-1813), Paris (1813-1815), London (1815-1823), Russia (through Paris, Berlin, and Warsaw, (1823-1826/7), and back to Paris (1826/7-1839) where he died. The present set of pieces originally written for piano solo dates almost entirely from his time in London. The musical forms taken are those of popular dances of the day. Included here are two sets of waltzes, three sets of quadrilles, and a lone mazurka published in Paris in 1835. In addition Sor's solo piano works included minuets, an arrangement of his Funeral March for Tsar Alexander (originally for military band), and arrangements of the overture, a largo, and a minuet from his own opera Telemaco. Only the works from Telemaco are known to have survived with the exception of one minuet that is a version of the final minuet in his Op.3 for guitar. They are not included here.
Book Synopsis Recording the Classical Guitar by : Mark Marrington
Download or read book Recording the Classical Guitar written by Mark Marrington and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-03-30 with total page 453 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recording the Classical Guitar charts the evolution of classical guitar recording practice from the early twentieth century to the present day, encompassing the careers of many of the instrument’s most influential practitioners from acoustic era to the advent of the CD. A key focus is on the ways in which guitarists’ recorded repertoire programmes have shaped the identity of the instrument, particularly where national allegiances and musical aesthetics are concerned. The book also considers the ways in which changing approaches to recording practice have conditioned guitarists’ conceptions of the instrument’s ideal representation in recorded form and situates these in relation to the development of classical music recording aesthetics more generally. An important addition to the growing body of literature in the field of phonomusicology, the book will be of interest to guitarists and producers as well as students of record production and historians of classical music recording.
Book Synopsis Anton Rubinstein by : Philip S. Taylor
Download or read book Anton Rubinstein written by Philip S. Taylor and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 2007-06-14 with total page 375 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first modern biography in English of Russian composer-pianist Anton Rubinstein, this book places Rubinstein within the context of Russian and western European musical culture during the late 19th century, exploring his rise to international fame from humble origins in Bessarabia, as well as his subsequent rapid decline and marginalization in later musical culture. Taylor provides a balanced account of Rubinstein's life and his career as a piano virtuoso, conductor, composer, and as the founder of Russia's first conservatory. Widely considered the virtuosic heir to Liszt, and recognized internationally as an equivalent cultural icon, he performed with most leading musicians of the day, including Liszt himself, Joachim, Clara Schumann, Vieuxtemps, Wieniawski, Saint-Saens, and Ysaÿe.
