Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Die Sünde ist ein inhärenter Teil des menschlichen Wesens. Dieses böse, undefinierbare Etwas in uns, einem dunklen Geist oder Teufel zuzuschreiben, zieht uns aus der Verantwortung. Wir Menschen sind nun einmal mangelhaft, unrein, befleckt... Die ersten Sünder, Marie und Yu, wissen das genau. Sie wurden belegt mit einem Fluch, der ihr Fortleben an ihre Sünde, den Baum des Lebens, bindet. Ein Geheimnis. Ein Schlüssel und ein Schloss. Eine Welt, in der alle Tiere erloschen sind. Im wohl frühsten Akt des Anti-Feminismus hat der unersättliche Parasit Mensch sich Mutter Erde untertan gemacht. Kinder höchster Qualität werden in Schulen gezüchtet wie Tiere... Auf einer Reise zu dem Verständnis einer Welt, die sie als Ware hält, schließen sechs Schüler einen Pakt, der ihr Leben für immer verändert.

Download or read book The Monstrous New Art written by Anna Zayaruznaya and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2015-04-02 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Late medieval motet texts are brimming with chimeras, centaurs and other strange creatures. In The Monstrous New Art, Anna Zayaruznaya explores the musical ramifications of this menagerie in the works of composers Guillaume de Machaut, Philippe de Vitry, and their contemporaries. Aligning the larger forms of motets with the broad sacred and secular themes of their texts, Zayaruznaya shows how monstrous or hybrid exempla are musically sculpted by rhythmic and textural means. These divisive musical procedures point to the contradictory aspects not only of explicitly monstrous bodies, but of such apparently unified entities as the body politic, the courtly lady, and the Holy Trinity. Zayaruznaya casts a new light on medieval modes of musical representation, with profound implications for broader disciplinary narratives about the history of text-music relations, the emergence of musical unity, and the ontology of the musical work.
