Download or read book Feeling Film written by Beth Carroll and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-11-25 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book questions the de facto dominance of narrative when watching films. Using the film musical as a case study, this book explores whether an alternative spatial understanding of film can offer alternative readings to narrative. For instance, how do film aesthetics influence our interaction with the film? Can camera movement and music make us ‘feel’ cinema? Can the film world bleed into our own? Utilising film musicals ranging from those by Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers to von Trier’s Dancer in the Dark (2000), Feeling Film: A Spatial Approach investigates how we might go about understanding the audience's spatial relationship with film aesthetics, what it might look like, and the tools needed to conduct analysis.
Download or read book Prose Works Vol 1 written by UNKNOWN. AUTHOR and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-25 with total page 446 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Prose Works, Vol. 1: The Art-Work of the Future, &C The first edition of this volume of Richard Wagner's Prose Works, as rendered into English, was issued to Members of the Wagner Society (London Branch) and to Subscribers, in serial parts of 32 pages each, during the years 1891 and 1892. Its issue in book-form to the public, however, did not take place until the end of January 1893, and the stock is already exhausted; so that Wagnerians may congratulate themselves upon the existence of a far more active interest in the master's philosophic and artistic thought than his opponents had foretold, or than we ourselves had dared to hope. In a like regard I may record the fact that, owing to a widely expressed desire on the part of the Press, the publication of the remaining volumes has been hastened, with the result that volumes ii and iii are already in the public's hands, and present indications warrant me in trusting that their second edition, also, will be necessary at no distant date. As to the matter of the present edition, it has been reprinted from the 'stereos' taken from the first, and therefore differs in no material respect. Beyond the correction of the errata notified on page 396 of that first edition, the only alteration is that of the page now directly under the reader's eye. In the original edition it was occupied by the following Dedication, which I now have the honour to repeat: - "To Frau Cosima Wagner this English rendering of Richard Wagner's Prose Works, construed under the shelter of the London Branch of the Wagner Society, is respectfully dedicated by the translator, in the hope that the outcome of his labours may in some small measure help to further that great Work of Bayreuth which She has inherited from her husband and is so devotedly carrying forward."

Download or read book Music and Modernism c 1849 1950 written by Charlotte de Mille and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2011-01-18 with total page 355 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Music and Modernism is a collection of essays which re-evaluates the significant connections between the disciplines of music, fine art and architecture in the period covering the emergence and flowering of modernism, c. 1849–1950. Combining established scholars in the field with those at the start of their careers, this book presents an exceptional cross-section of European and American modernism through a series of detailed case-studies. Avoiding a simplistic engagement with cross- or inter-disciplinarity, the focus of attention centres on themes that became key to modernist artists and critics: association, perception, representation, subjectivity, writing and language. Accordingly, this book re-thinks modernism itself in the light of both the fine arts and music, to advocate a multiplicity of modernisms from which it is necessary for scholars to construct their own narratives.

Download or read book Spaces of Experience written by Charlotte Klonk and published by . This book was released on 2009-01-01 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This fascinating study of art gallery interiors examines the changing ideals and practices of galleries in Europe and North America from the 18th to the late 20th century. It offers a detailed account of the different displays that have been created—the colors of the background walls, lighting, furnishings, the height and density of the art works on show—and it traces the different scientific, political and commercial influences that lay behind their development. Charlotte Klonk shows that scientists like Hermann von Helmholtz and Wilhelm Wundt advanced theories of perception that played a significant role in justifying new modes of exhibiting. Equally important for the changing modes of exhibition in art galleries was what Michael Baxandall has called “the period eye,” a way of seeing informed by the impact of new fashions in interior decoration and by department store and shop window displays. The history of museum interiors, she argues, should be appreciated as a revealing chapter in the broader history of experience.
Download or read book Three Prose Works written by Else Lasker-Schüler and published by . This book was released on 2022-06-20 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A collection of vital autobiographical pre-WWI prose from the great German-Jewish writer Never before translated into English, this trio of works finds one of the greatest German writers of the 20th century mythologizing her own pursuit of freedom in captivatingly original fiction. In The Peter Hille Book (1906), Else Lasker-Schüler offers an elegy for her arch-bohemian mentor. But this hypnotic blend of Nietzsche, fairy tale and paganism also celebrates the one Hille called 'Tino'--the author herself--and the electrifying uncertainties of the creative life. In the 1907 text The Nights of Tino of Baghdad she sends her alter ego on a heady voyage through an imagined 'Orient'. From the banks of the Nile the narrative advances across a wide emotional landscape, using Muslim and Jewish motifs to explore the commonalities of Semitic identity. Finally, Lasker-Schüler's avatar encounters dervishes, biblical figures and a 20-year-old foetus in The Prince of Thebes. Issued on the eve of World War One, this sequence of dark fables seethes with violence and eroticism, culminating in a great clash of civilizations in which Tino leads the charge. An insightful afterword details the genesis of these Three Prose Works in the context of the author's tumultuous life. Fiction.

Download or read book Marx s Ecology written by John Bellamy Foster and published by NYU Press. This book was released on 2000-03-01 with total page 325 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Progress requires the conquest of nature. Or does it? This startling new account overturns conventional interpretations of Marx and in the process outlines a more rational approach to the current environmental crisis. Marx, it is often assumed, cared only about industrial growth and the development of economic forces. John Bellamy Foster examines Marx's neglected writings on capitalist agriculture and soil ecology, philosophical naturalism, and evolutionary theory. He shows that Marx, known as a powerful critic of capitalist society, was also deeply concerned with the changing human relationship to nature. Marx's Ecology covers many other thinkers, including Epicurus, Charles Darwin, Thomas Malthus, Ludwig Feuerbach, P. J. Proudhon, and William Paley. By reconstructing a materialist conception of nature and society, Marx's Ecology challenges the spiritualism prevalent in the modern Green movement, pointing toward a method that offers more lasting and sustainable solutions to the ecological crisis.
