Chesterton & in response to an essay by professor Dr. Bob Kramer, respected author Aaron Joy takes up the cry that Zurich is the center of the world.

Book Synopsis Into Da Bright: Poetry Inspired And In Tribute To The Ruchira Avatar Adi Da Samraj by : Aaron Joy
Download or read book Into Da Bright: Poetry Inspired And In Tribute To The Ruchira Avatar Adi Da Samraj written by Aaron Joy and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2013-07-06 with total page 83 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Adi Da Samraj is a Eastern based guru and teacher unparalleled ...a prolific intellect, writer and artist ...the promised God-Man ...and the divine Ruchira (Bright) Avatar. He's been known over the decades by many names and like many teachers has had his share of controversy, but what he taught and the connection he's made with countless followers goes beyond normal understanding and or the common social landscape. His profundity might be his greatest gift and makes the controversy trivial for many who have come into his presence. These poems by a devotee were written between 2009 and 2013 and look at the relationship of the student to the teacher, the guru, the Bright, God. Yet, they also go beyond Adi Da Samraj to look at spirituality on the whole, the dilemma of an earthly existence, the search for God.

Book Synopsis Richard Wagner by : John Louis DiGaetani
Download or read book Richard Wagner written by John Louis DiGaetani and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2014-01-02 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a new biography of the German composer Richard Wagner, 200 years after his birth, re-examining his life in light of new documents and new sensibilities. Since World War II Wagner has often been wrongly associated with Adolf Hitler because Hitler liked Wagner's music and used it in Nazi propaganda. But Wagner died in 1883--fifty years before Hitler's regime. It is time to have a fresh look at Wagner's life without the Nazi associations. His life was a series of abandonments and traumas for the self-destructive but creative genius, as he tried to survive as a freelance composer in the hostile environments of 19th century Germany.

Book Synopsis Einstein's Dreams by : Alan Lightman
Download or read book Einstein's Dreams written by Alan Lightman and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2011-03-02 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NATIONAL BESTSELLER • A modern classic explores the connections between science and art, the process of creativity, and ultimately the fragility of human existence. “A magical, metaphysical realm ... Captivating, enchanting, delightful.” —The New York Times Einstein’s Dreams is a fictional collage of stories dreamed by Albert Einstein in 1905, about time, relativity and physics. As the defiant but sensitive young genius is creating his theory of relativity, a new conception of time, he imagines many possible worlds. In one, time is circular, so that people are fated to repeat triumphs and failures over and over. In another, there is a place where time stands still, visited by lovers and parents clinging to their children. In another, time is a nightingale, sometimes trapped by a bell jar. Now translated into thirty languages, Einstein’s Dreams has inspired playwrights, dancers, musicians, and painters all over the world. In poetic vignettes, it explores the connections between science and art, the process of creativity, and ultimately the fragility of human existence.
Book Synopsis Buying Baroque by : Edgar Peters Bowron
Download or read book Buying Baroque written by Edgar Peters Bowron and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 2017-03-01 with total page 203 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although Americans have shown interest in Italian Baroque art since the eighteenth century—Thomas Jefferson bought copies of works by Salvator Rosa and Guido Reni for his art gallery at Monticello, and the seventeenth-century Bolognese school was admired by painters Benjamin West and John Singleton Copley—a widespread appetite for it only took hold in the early to mid-twentieth century. Buying Baroque tells this history through the personalities involved and the culture of collecting in the United States. The distinguished contributors to this volume examine the dealers, auction houses, and commercial galleries that provided access to Baroque paintings, as well as the collectors, curators, and museum directors who acquired and shaped American perceptions about these works, including Charles Eliot Norton, John W. Ringling, A. Everett Austin Jr., and Samuel H. Kress. These essays explore aesthetic trends and influences to show why Americans developed an increasingly sophisticated taste for Baroque art between the late eighteenth century and the 1920s, and they trace the fervent peak of interest during the 1950s and 1960s. A wide-ranging, in-depth look at the collecting of seventeenth- and eighteenth-century Italian paintings in America, this volume sheds new light on the cultural conditions that led collectors to value Baroque art and the significant effects of their efforts on America’s greatest museums and galleries. In addition to the editor, contributors include Andrea Bayer, Virginia Brilliant, Andria Derstine, Marco Grassi, Ian Kennedy, J. Patrice Marandel, Pablo Pérez d’Ors, Richard E. Spear, and Eric M. Zafran.

Download or read book Art + Archive written by Sara Callahan and published by Manchester University Press. This book was released on 2022-01-25 with total page 277 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Art + Archive provides an in-depth analysis of the connection between art and the archive at the turn of the twenty-first century. The book examines how the archive emerged in art writing in the mid-1990s and how its subsequent ubiquity can be understood in light of wider social, technological, philosophical and art-historical conditions and concerns. Deftly combining writing on archives from different disciplines with artistic practices, the book clarifies the function and meaning of one of the most persistent artworld buzzwords of recent years, shedding light on the conceptual and historical implications of the so-called archival turn in contemporary art.
