Download or read book Cheese Pears and History in a Proverb written by Massimo Montanari and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2010-08-20 with total page 127 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Do not let the peasant know how good cheese is with pears" goes the old saying. Intrigued by these words and their portent, Massimo Montanari unravels their origin and utility. Perusing archival cookbooks, agricultural and dietary treatises, literary works, and anthologies of beloved sayings, he finds in the nobility's demanding palates and delicate stomachs a compelling recipe for social conduct. At first, cheese and its visceral, earthy pleasures were treated as the food of Polyphemus, the uncivilized man-beast. The pear, on the other hand, became the symbol of ephemeral, luxuriant pleasure-an indulgence of the social elite. Joined together, cheese and pears adopted an exclusive savoir faire, especially as the "natural phenomenon" of taste evolved into a cultural attitude. Montanari's delectable history straddles written and oral traditions, economic and social relations, and thrills in the power of mental representation. His ultimate discovery shows that the enduring proverb, so wrapped up in history, operates not only as a repository of shared wisdom but also as a rich locus of social conflict.

Download or read book The Dream of Scipio written by Iain Pears and published by Vintage Canada. This book was released on 2010-08-06 with total page 539 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Three narratives, set in the fifth, fourteenth, and twentieth centuries, all revolving around an ancient text and each with a love story at its centre, are the elements of this brilliantly ingenious novel, a follow-up to the international bestseller An Instance of the Fingerpost. The centuries are the 5th (the final days of the Roman Empire); the 14th (the years of the Plague — the Black Death); and the 20th (World War II). The setting for each is the same — Provence — and each has at its heart a love story. The narratives intertwine seamlessly, and what joins them thematically is an ancient text — “The Dream of Scipio” — a work of neo-Platonism that poses timeless philosophical questions. What is the obligation of the individual in a society under siege? What is the role of learning when civilization itself is threatened, whether by acts of man or nature? Does virtue lie more in engagement or in neutrality? “Power without wisdom is tyranny; wisdom without power is pointless,” warns one of Pears’s characters. The Dream of Scipio is a bona fide novel of ideas, a dazzling feat of storytelling, fiction for our times.

Download or read book The Tenderness of Silent Minds written by Martha C. Nussbaum and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2024 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Tenderness of Silent Minds presents Benjamin Britten's musical representations of the body amidst the brutality of war and their ability to transform consciousness by evoking potent, non-personal emotions. It also highlights Britten's notions about the value and beauty of the body in correlation with his partnership with singer Peter Pears, his lover. Technical musicological analysis within philosophical accounts of the aesthetics of the musical portrayal of war and the ethics of pacifism allowed a compelling framework for critically assessing Britten's oeuvre. Moreover, the perspectives from Britten's letters help highlight the social and political backdrop of fear and homophobic disgust in mid-twentieth century Britain. The Tenderness of Silent Minds also focuses on how War Requiem confronted listeners with the reality of bodily experience in war, eliciting compassion through its depiction of beauty, vulnerability, and eroticism"--
