Book excerpt: Daleka Doroha, which was originally published in 1963 in Ukrainian is a memoir of Michael Podworniak, who in March 1944 left his beloved Volyn in Ukraine and crossed into Halychyna which during that time was under Polish control. He left behind his family because Germany had invaded his village and set it on fire. His journey continued to Warsaw, and when it became evident that only starvation and other dangers awaited him as the German front continued to advance. He elected to go into forced labor into Germany in exchange for food and a place to sleep. The book describes the hardships of life in a German labor camp which was eventually attacked by Allied bombers and fighter planes. It was only God’s grace that preserved his life and let him see the end of the war. After the war ended, all foreigners were required to settle in refugee camps as the Allied occupiers decided their fate. During the years after the war, the author, together with a group of singers, made two tours of the refugee camps in Germany where Slavic people were staying. God blessed these trips and hundreds were converted after hearing the songs and the preaching of the Word. Every page of the book contains interesting and often tragic stories which the author experienced before he, together with his wife and son, boarded a ship for Canada.

Book Synopsis By Authors Possessed by : Adam Weiner
Download or read book By Authors Possessed written by Adam Weiner and published by Northwestern University Press. This book was released on 1998 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By Authors Possessed examines the development of the demonic in key Russian novels from the last two centuries. Defining the demonic novel as one that takes as its theme an evil presence incarnated in the protagonists and attributed to the Judeo-Christian Devil, Adam Weiner investigates the way the content of such a book can compromise the moral integrity of its narration and its sense of authorship. Weiner contends that the theme of demonism increasingly infects the narrative point of view from Gogol's Dead Souls to Dostoevsky's The Devils and Bely's Petersburg, until Nabokov exorcised the demonic novel through his fiction and his criticism. Starting from the premise that artistic creation has always been enshrouded in a haze of moral dilemma and religious doubt, Weiner's study of the demonic novel is an attempt to illuminate the potential ethical perils and aesthetic gains of great art.

Book Synopsis Shamanic Journeys Through Daghestan by : Michael Berman
Download or read book Shamanic Journeys Through Daghestan written by Michael Berman and published by John Hunt Publishing. This book was released on 2009 with total page 149 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Known as the land of the mountains, Dagestan lies immediately north of the Caucasus Mountains, and stretches for approximately 250 miles along the west shore of the Caspian Sea. With its mountainous terrain making travel and communication difficult, Daghestan is still largely tribal. Despite over a century of Tsarist control followed by seventy years of repressive Soviet rule, there are still 32 distinct ethnic groups in Daghestan, each with its own language, making it unquestionably the most complex of the Caucasian republics. Shamanic practices are still prevalent in this country, where one of the ten lost tribes of Israel can be found. In Daghestan, as in the neighbouring countries of Georgia, Chechnya, and Azerbaijan, these roots lie in shamanism. This book, one of only a handful available in English on the country, contains the texts of some of these stories as well as commentaries on them.

Book Synopsis Stravinsky and the Russian Traditions, Volume One by : Richard Taruskin
Download or read book Stravinsky and the Russian Traditions, Volume One written by Richard Taruskin and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2023-09-01 with total page 992 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book undoes 50 years of mythmaking about Stravinsky's life in music. During his spectacular career, Igor Stravinsky underplayed his Russian past in favor of a European cosmopolitanism. Richard Taruskin has refused to take the composer at his word. In this long-awaited study, he defines Stravinsky's relationship to the musical and artistic traditions of his native land and gives us a dramatically new picture of one of the major figures in the history of music. Taruskin draws directly on newly accessible archives and on a wealth of Russian documents. In Volume One, he sets the historical scene: the St. Petersburg musical press, the arts journals, and the writings of anthropologists, folklorists, philosophers, and poets. Volume Two addresses the masterpieces of Stravinsky's early maturity—Petrushka, The Rite of Spring, and Les Noces. Taruskin investigates the composer's collaborations with Diaghilev to illuminate the relationship between folklore and modernity. He elucidates the Silver Age ideal of "neonationalism"—the professional appropriation of motifs and style characteristics from folk art—and how Stravinsky realized this ideal in his music. Taruskin demonstrates how Stravinsky achieved his modernist technique by combining what was most characteristically Russian in his musical training with stylistic elements abstracted from Russian folklore. The stylistic synthesis thus achieved formed Stravinsky as a composer for life, whatever the aesthetic allegiances he later professed. Written with Taruskin's characteristic mixture of in-depth research and stylistic verve, this book will be mandatory reading for all those seriously interested in the life and work of Stravinsky.
