Book Synopsis KUL Short stories with an intriguing question? by : Laurens van Lieshout
Download or read book KUL Short stories with an intriguing question? written by Laurens van Lieshout and published by Mijnbestseller.nl. This book was released on 2023-12-13 with total page 165 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Questions that we do not yet know the answer to. An example of such a story is 'The last baby'. What could happen if the quality of our seeds continues to deteriorate? The story 'The first pharaoh', on the other hand, deals with the question of the origin of diversity. Another example is 'Armpit sweat'. In this story, it has been emphasized that the smell of the partner could be essential for a lasting relationship. Also, some stories such as 'space-sex' give you the opportunity to come up with your own plot. They provide inspiration to let the imagination run wild. Similar to a joke, these short stories are intended to make the audience think and possibly to make you laugh. The stories should be read with a wink, because life is serious enough. That's why the short story collection is called 'KUL'. The stories give food for thought and are worth telling. Each story is unique and grabs you from the start. Sometimes they seem more like a consideration, a philosophical train of thought, or a statement. But they are all narrative. Some stories are humorous, some start with a statement and develop it further into the future.

Book Synopsis Petr Petrovich Semenov's Travels in the Tian’-Shan’, 1856–1857 by : Colin Thomas
Download or read book Petr Petrovich Semenov's Travels in the Tian’-Shan’, 1856–1857 written by Colin Thomas and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-12-17 with total page 409 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the mid-nineteenth century the eyes of western European explorers were firmly fixed on advancing inland from former maritime colonies in the Americas, Africa, the Indian sub-continent and Australasia, their motives often being inextricably bound up with concerns of imperial politics and commerce. Simultaneously, further east, Russians resumed their perceived mission to civilise Asia, following their own country’s humiliation during the Crimean War. From a springboard of Siberian territories acquired gradually over the previous three centuries, discovery and expansion radiated from the Imperial Russian Geographical Society, founded in 1845 and incorporating initiatives drawn from descendants of immigrant French and German scientists who themselves inspired a new generation of liberal intellectuals. A key personality in that movement was the Society’s librarian and secretary of its physical geography section, P. P. Semenov (1827-1914), a member of a minor gentry family who had been tutored by a pupil of Linnacus and who had studied under Ritter and von Humboldt at Berlin during a tour of Europe in 1853-4. From them he conceived the notion of travelling to the virtually unknown lands of Central Asia, ostensibly to verify opinions on the existence there of active volcanoes and glaciers. In reality his ambition was to penetrate beyond the Kazakh steppe and to reach the fabled Celestial Mountains, the Tian’-Shan’ range, which constituted the politically sensitive border between Russia and China and the equally hostile buffer zone of Muslim kahnates. Accompanied only by a serf servant, in May 1856 Semenov embarked on a 18-month journey from St Petersburg through Kazan’ to Semipalatinsk, and thence via the Altai to the newly established Russian settlement of Vernoe (later Alma-Ata, now Almaty). Subsequently he received a Cossack escort on his trek into the high plateaus and ridges surrounding Issyk-kul’, to ’the very heart of Asia’. Throughout his
Book Synopsis Maestros and Their Music by : John Mauceri
Download or read book Maestros and Their Music written by John Mauceri and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2018-11-06 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: John Mauceri, who has stood on podiums before storied symphonies, operas, and ballets around the world, brings a lifetime of experience to bear in this informative, brilliantly entertaining exploration of his profession. As Mauceri traces the lineage of his craft, from Felix Mendelssohn (the first to use a baton) to the present day, he shows us how conducting is itself a composition: of legacy and tradition, of techniques handed down—and more than a trace of ineffable magic. Weaving clear musical explanations together with memorable accounts of working alongside masters like Bernstein and Stokowski, Mauceri reveals how conductors approach a piece with a combination of personal interpretation, imagination, and insight into the composer’s intent; what it takes to communicate solely through gesture, with sometimes hundreds of performers at once; and the occasionally glamorous, often challenging life of the itinerant maestro. Illuminating and instructive, inflected with candor, humor, and grace, Maestros and Their Music is the perfect guide to the allure and theater, passion and drudgery, rivalries and relationships of the conducting life.

Book Synopsis Philosophers on Art from Kant to the Postmodernists by : Christopher Kul-Want
Download or read book Philosophers on Art from Kant to the Postmodernists written by Christopher Kul-Want and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2010-06-04 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Here, for the first time, Christopher Kul-Want brings together twenty-five texts on art written by twenty philosophers. Covering the Enlightenment to postmodernism, these essays draw on Continental philosophy and aesthetics, the Marxist intellectual tradition, and psychoanalytic theory, and each is accompanied by an overview and interpretation. The volume features Martin Heidegger on Van Gogh's shoes and the meaning of the Greek temple; Georges Bataille on Salvador Dal's The Lugubrious Game; Theodor W. Adorno on capitalism and collage; Walter Benjamin and Roland Barthes on the uncanny nature of photography; Sigmund Freud on Leonardo Da Vinci and his interpreters; Jacques Lacan and Julia Kristeva on the paintings of Holbein; Freud's postmodern critic, Gilles Deleuze on the visceral paintings of Francis Bacon; and Giorgio Agamben on the twin traditions of the Duchampian ready-made and Pop Art. Kul-Want elucidates these texts with essays on aesthetics, from Hegel and Nietzsche to Badiou and Rancire, demonstrating how philosophy adopted a new orientation toward aesthetic experience and subjectivity in the wake of Kant's powerful legacy.

Book excerpt: CITY, PEOPLE and ARCHITECTURE No matter hom impressive or iconic building or tall skyscraperis upon the skyline of a city, these buildings are concieved with people as their users. Yet the question is, for which layer of citizenship do they serve ? Have the stakeholder of the built environment give adequte attention towards the lives of those in between the cities’ sprawl of structures ? The topic of Archinesia vol.10 is “City, People and Architecture”, in which we try to reassess the position of architectural projects apart from being iconic attractors in the cityscapes. We ought to examine the role of architects in the ever-crucial process of creation within an increasingly populous contect. Without understanding how architects impact people, the profession will fatally disconnect itself from society.
