Book Synopsis Songs of Love and War by : Dominic Couzens
Download or read book Songs of Love and War written by Dominic Couzens and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2017-04-06 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The dawn chorus: a single voice cutting through the darkness heralds a breaking wave of sound at the very beginning of the day. It is an iconic natural phenomenon with many familiar performers, yet it is a mysterious event for which there is no complete explanation. A mass of starlings gathers at the end of the midwinter day. As the sun sets, wave upon wave of bodies rolls in and embarks upon another of nature's great attempts to show off. The murmuration is another much-admired spectacle, but again its purpose is obscure and defies our understanding. From dawn until dusk, birds do things that are surprising and mystifying. Songs of Love and War delves into bird behaviour and uncovers its purpose and meaning. More than just an inside look at bird behaviour, this book also represents a personal journey of discovery. What starts as a desire to learn more about the birds encountered on a regular father-and-son walk through the woods leads to a realisation that a bird's life is very far from the idyllic scene that can often be glimpsed by the casual birdwatcher. Actually a bird's life is often unusual and surprising, but above all it is brief and much darker than you might think.
Book Synopsis Songs of Love and War by : Sayd Majrouh
Download or read book Songs of Love and War written by Sayd Majrouh and published by Other Press, LLC. This book was released on 2020-10-06 with total page 71 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The authors of oral literature in the Pashtun language create their work at a far remove from any books. Generally deprived of the support of schools and universities, their compositions are inseparable from song. Their poetry is never declaimed; rather, their rhyme and rhythm have melodic value. These popular improvisations do not exalt mystic love. In them there is no aspiration whatsoever to an unfathomable and incommunicable heaven, nor devotion to the lord, nor praise for an absolute master, nor any Adonis. To the contrary, they are songs of the earth. They celebrate nature, mountains, rivers, dawn and night’s magnetic space. They are songs of war and honor, shame and love, beauty and death. The repression of Afghan women has caused untold suffering, particularly through moral subjugation. Infant daughters and their mothers are received with scorn and shame, and lead lives of subordination and humiliation. Their rebellion against these tribal codes comes only through suicide and song. Translated from the Pashtun into French by the eminent Sayd Bahodine Majrouh, the greatest Afghan poet of the twentieth century, his text has been rendered into English in the expert hands of Marjolijn de Jager of the Translation Department at NYU.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Songs of Love and War "He gave his life that his country might live. One winter morn I saw a rose, A white rose blooming in the snow. As pale as death by a grave it grows. With a fragrance sweeter than earthly rose That white rose blows in the glistening snow. As fair it blooms as it bloomed of yore On a winter morn long, long ago, When the land had rest from a cruel war, And the soldier's friends this tribute bore To him who lay in the grave below. Methinks that once that rose was red, Before it bloomed above the dead, A new-blown rich-red jacqueminot, Symbol of the abundant life That through the soldier's veins did flow. But that was many years ago; And he who plucked the rose so red And turned it white above the dead, The cunning hand that carved the rose Laid down the chisel long ago. Nor do I think it was in grief That skilful hand turned petals white, And changed to marble each green leaf, And carved a bud beside the rose - His was the seer's inner light.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On the battlefields of world history, music has had many functions. It is exploited by propaganda to hound the enemy, and battle songs are used to drive out fear and vilify the enemy. Soldiers sing and play music to find solace in the madness of war and to remain human. The First World War - the first modern war - led the way in the functionalisation of music. While old traditions such as the soldier song still had their importance, new media such as the gramaphone record were tested for propagandistic ends. Popular songs from operettas and chorus songs began to take over the function that folk songs previously had. The diverse roles of music in the first World War are examined in the contributions to this volume. The authors shed light on the theme from different perspectives. How was music used in propaganda to fight the enemy? How did soldiers in the trenches use music to survive? And, finally, how was the theme of war dealt with in music?
