Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: English summary: Since ancient times, most of the big names in our philosophical tradition dealt with music, sometimes devoting significant developments to it - not to mention that some were also composers. Among the issues raised by philosophers is the purpose of music, the focus of a number of rather lively debates. The texts gathered here illustrate the key points of these debates. French text. French description: Depuis l'Antiquite, la plupart des grands noms de notre tradition philosophique ont traite de la musique, lui consacrant parfois des developpements importants--sans compter que certains ont ete aussi compositeurs. Parmi les questions soulevees par les philosophes, celle de l'objet de la musique reste l'une des plus enigmatique : que la musique dise ou exprime quelque chose a ete admis comme une evidence pendant des siecles, mais la nature de ce qu'elle peut ou doit exprimer, ainsi que les moyens appropries a cette fin, ont donne lieu a des debats assez vifs, auxquels ont pris part musiciens et ecrivains au-dela du cercle etroit des philosophes. Ces discussions sur le veritable contenu de la musique font en realite apparaitre une inquietude sur la possibilite meme, pour la musique, d'avoir un contenu. Il n'est pas exagere de dire que, tout au long de l'histoire de la tradition occidentale, une grande partie des theories de la musique se sont constituees pour repondre a cette question de l'indetermination--apparente ou reelle, menacante ou salutaire--de son contenu. Les textes reunis ici, selon les cas peu connus, meconnus ou difficiles d'acces, illustrent les principales etapes de ce debat.

Download or read book Why We Play written by Roberte Hamayon and published by Hau. This book was released on 2016 with total page 343 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Play is one of humanity's straightforward yet deceitful ideas: though the notion is unanimously agreed upon to be universal, used for man and animal alike, nothing defines what all its manifestations share, from childish playtime to on stage drama, from sporting events to market speculation. Within the author's anthropological field of work (Mongolia and Siberia), playing holds a core position: national holidays are called "Games," echoing in that way the circus games in Ancient Rome and today's Olympics. These games convey ethical values and local identity. Roberte Hamayon bases her analysis of the playing spectrum on their scrutiny. Starting from fighting and dancing, encompassing learning, interaction, emotion and strategy, this study heads towards luck and belief as well as the ambiguity of the relation to fiction and reality. It closes by indicating two features of play: its margin and its metaphorical structure. Ultimately revealing its consistency and coherence, the author displays play as a modality of action of its own. "Playing is no 'doing' in the ordinary sense" once wrote Johan Huizinga. Isn't playing doing something else, elswhere and otherwise ?

Book Salvator Rosa in French Literature

Download or read book Salvator Rosa in French Literature written by James Patty and published by University Press of Kentucky. This book was released on 2005-01-31 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: " Salvator Rosa (1615–1673) was a colorful and controversial Italian painter, talented musician, a notable comic actor, a prolific correspondent, and a successful satirist and poet. His paintings, especially his rugged landscapes and their evocation of the sublime, appealed to Romantic writers, and his work was highly influential on several generations of European writers. James S. Patty analyzes Rosa’s tremendous influence on French writers, chiefly those of the nineteenth century, such as Stendhal, Honoré de Balzac, Victor Hugo, George Sand, and Théophile Gautier. Arranged in chronological order, with numerous quotations from French fiction, poetry, drama, art criticism, art history, literary history, and reference works, Salvator Rosa in French Literature forms a narrative account of the reception of Rosa’s life and work in the world of French letters. James S. Patty, professor emeritus of French at Vanderbilt University, is the author of Dürer in French Letters . He lives in Nashville, Tennessee.

Book Memoirs of an Egotist

Download or read book Memoirs of an Egotist written by Stendhal and published by Read Books Ltd. This book was released on 2021-03-22 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book contains the memoirs of Stendahl or in his own words the 'chatter about his private life' between 1821 and 1830. It was between these dates that he moved to Paris and here looks back on his life as an eccentric bachelor. 'As well as Beyle the clairvoyant self-investigator, the sardonic analyst of Parisian salon society and deliberate cultivator of wit, here emerges Beyle the despairing lover, the shakespearean enthusiast, whose romantic sentiment run always parallel with his eighteenth-century logic'. Marie-Henri Beyle - better-known by his pen name, Stendhal - was born in Grenoble, France in 1783. He turned to writing after the final defeat of Napoleon in 1815, notable works include A Life of Rossini (1824), A Life of Napoleon (1929) and The Red and the Black published in 1830. A number of works were published posthumously, including Lamiel (1889), Memoirs of an Egotist (1892) and Lucien Leuwen (1894). Stendhal is now regarded as one of the earliest and foremost practitioners of literary realism.

The volume concludes with an interview with the leading Dutch composer Louis Andriessen and a major re-evaluation of 'Stravinsky and Us' by Richard Taruskin.
