Book Synopsis Filosofia della musica by : Giovanni Piana
Download or read book Filosofia della musica written by Giovanni Piana and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2013-01-03 with total page 349 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Questa "Filosofia della musica", pubblicata nel 1991, è apparsa in un contesto in cui era vivamente sentita da parte di filosofi e musicisti l'esigenza di un confronto sulle questioni che stanno alle radici del fenomeno musicale nel suo complesso. La critica che qui viene condotta contro le implicazioni filosofiche della semiologia musicale fa da sfondo ad un percorso che intende sperimentare nuove vie nella delimitazione delle nozioni elementari che rappresentano le strutture portanti dell'universo dei suoni. Il libro si conclude con una discussione che mostra come solo attraverso l'operare dell'immaginazione simbolica la musica possa mantenere la presa sulla realtà. Che questo percorso si muova spesso ai margini del musicale ha le sue ragioni all'interno del punto di vista adottato, ma anche ripete e riprende sul piano della riflessione filosofica quel ritorno alle origini che fa parte del senso profondo della straordinaria avventura della musica novecentesca.
Book Synopsis No Passion Spent by : George Steiner
Download or read book No Passion Spent written by George Steiner and published by Faber & Faber. This book was released on 2010-12-09 with total page 629 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is an extraordinary collection of essays by one of this country's most exciting and dramatic thinkers.The essays span a considerable time. But they turn on a central, compelling theme. What is meant by reading a serious text at a time when theories of language and literature question the very possibility of any agreed meaning, and at a time when new technologies seem likely to replace books as we have known them since Gutenberg. This question is brought to bear deliberately on the touchstone examples: the Bible, Homer, Shakespeare. Also on Kierkegaard and Kafka. The closely-meshed collection ends with a series of essays on the philosophic-theological underwriting of communication, with particular reference to what language tells us of Socrates and of Jesus. These essays by George Steiner, distinguished critic and Extraordinary Fellow at Churchill College, Cambridge, seek to conjoin the themes argued in such books as The Death of Tragedy, Language and Silence, After Babel and Real Presences. They speak of a profound, if sometimes troubled, joy.

Book Synopsis Symbolism and Interpretation by : Tzvetan Todorov
Download or read book Symbolism and Interpretation written by Tzvetan Todorov and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 1986 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Symbolism and Interpretation, Tzvetan Todorov examines two aspects of discourse: its production, which has traditionally been the domain of rhetoric, and its reception, which has always been the object of hermeneutics. He analyzes the diverse theories of symbolism and interpretation that have been elaborated over the centuries and considers their contribution to a general theory of verbal symbolism, discussing a wide range of thinkers, from the Sanskrit philosophers and Aristotle to the German Romantics and contemporary semioticians. Todorov begins by examining general ideas of linguistic symbolism and the interpretive process. He then turns to a detailed consideration of two of the most influential and pervasive interpretative strategies in Western thought: the patristic exegesis of Augustine and Aquinas, and the philological exegesis foreshadowed in the work of Spinoza, developed by Wolf, Ast, Boeckh, and Lanson, and criticized by Schleiermacher. Todorov clarifies in masterly fashion the intricacies of the many schools of thought and refines the concepts crucial to critical theory today, including the distinctions between language and discourse, direct and indirect meaning, sign and symbol. Ably translated by Catherine Porter, Symbolism and Interpretation provides a coherent and innovative framework that is indispensable to the study of semiotics, its history, and its future.

Book Synopsis Pictures of Nothing by : Kirk Varnedoe
Download or read book Pictures of Nothing written by Kirk Varnedoe and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2006-10-29 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: He delivered the lectures, edited and reproduced here with their illustrations, to overflowing crowds at the National Gallery of Art in Washington in the spring of 2003, just months before his death. With brilliance, passion, and humor, Varnedoe addresses the skeptical attitudes and misunderstandings that we often bring to our experience of abstract art. Resisting grand generalizations, he makes a deliberate and scholarly case for abstraction--showing us that more than just pure looking is necessary to understand the self-made symbolic language of abstract art. Proceeding decade by decade, he brings alive the history and biography that inform the art while also challenging the received wisdom about distinctions between abstraction and representation, modernism and postmodernism, and minimalism and pop.

Book Synopsis The Future of the Classical by : Salvatore Settis
Download or read book The Future of the Classical written by Salvatore Settis and published by Polity. This book was released on 2006-10-20 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every era has invented a different idea of the 'classical' to create its own identity. Thus the 'classical' does not concern only the past: it is also concerned with the present and a vision of the future. In this elegant new book, Salvatore Settis traces the ways in which we have related to our 'classical' past, starting with post-modern American skyscrapers and working his way back through our cultural history to the attitudes of the Greeks and Romans themselves. Settis argues that this obsession with cultural decay, ruins and a 'classical' past is specifically European and the product of a collective cultural trauma following the collapse of the Roman Empire. This situation differed from that of the Aztec and Inca empires whose collapse was more sudden and more complete, and from the Chinese Empire which always enjoyed a high degree of continuity. He demonstrates how the idea of the 'classical' has changed over the centuries through an unrelenting decay of 'classicism' and its equally unrelenting rebirth in an altered form. In the Modern Era this emulation of the 'ancients' by the 'moderns' was accompanied by new trends: the increasing belief that the former had now been surpassed by the latter, and an increasing preference for the Greek over the Roman. These conflicting interpretations were as much about the future as they were about the past. No civilization can invent itself if it does not have other societies in other times and other places to act as benchmarks. Settis argues that we will be better equipped to mould new generations for the future once we understand that the 'classical' is not a dead culture we inherited and for which we can take no credit, but something startling that has to be re-created every day and is a powerful spur to understanding the 'other'.

Download or read book Grandpa's Wine written by Gil Fagiani and published by . This book was released on 2008-09-01 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gil Fagiani's poems celebrate the older generation of Italian immigrants as they collide with America, as they simultaneously hold to old ways and forge new identities. His lean lines describe without judgment, like my grandmother tasting her sister-in-law's rosemary tomato sauce every Sunday, "good, good, good enough," she would purr. This collection hums with love, but it is a love born of mastery of the ingredients, and the application of great discipline and control. --Angelo Verga.
