Download or read book The Musical Novel written by Emily Petermann and published by Boydell & Brewer. This book was released on 2014 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Analyzes two groups of "musical novels" -- novels that take music as a model for their construction -- including jazz novels by Toni Morrison and Michael Ondaatje, and novels based on Bach's Goldberg Variations. What is a "musical novel"? This book defines the genre as musical not primarily in terms of its content, but in its form. The musical novel crosses medial boundaries, aspiring to techniques, structures, and impressions similar tothose of music. It takes music as a model for its own construction, borrowing techniques and forms that range from immediately perceptible, essential aspects of music (rhythm, timbre, the simultaneity of multiple voices) to microstructural (jazz riffs, call and response, leitmotifs) and macrostructural elements (themes and variations, symphonies, albums). The musical novel also evokes the performance context by imitating elements of spontaneity that characterize improvised jazz or audience interaction. The Musical Novel builds upon theories of intermediality and semiotics to analyze the musical structures, forms, and techniques in two groups of musical novels, which serve as case studies. The first group imitates an entire musical genre and consists of jazz novels by Toni Morrison, Albert Murray, Xam Wilson Cartiér, Stanley Crouch, Jack Fuller, Michael Ondaatje, and Christian Gailly. The secondgroup of novels, by Richard Powers, Gabriel Josipovici, Rachel Cusk, Nancy Huston, and Thomas Bernhard, imitates a single piece of music, J. S. Bach's Goldberg Variations. Emily Petermann is Assistant Professor of American Literature at the University of Konstanz.

Download or read book Performance Autoethnography written by Norman K. Denzin and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-04-20 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a manifesto. It is about rethinking performance autoethnography, about the formation of a critical performative cultural politics, about what happens when everything is already performative, when the dividing line between performativity and performance disappears. This is a book about the writing called autoethnography. It is also about what this form of writing means for writers who want to perform work that leads to social justice. Denzin’s goal is to take the reader through the history, major terms, forms, criticisms and issues confronting performance autoethnography and critical interpretive. To that end many of the chapters are written as performance texts, as ethnodramas. A single thesis organizes this book: the performance turn has been taken in the human disciplines and it must be taken seriously. Multiple informative performance models are discussed: Goffman’s dramaturgy; Turner’s performance anthropology; performance ethnographies by A. D. Smith, Conquergood, and Madison; Saldana’s ethnodramas; Schechter’s social theatre; Norris’s playacting; Boal’s theatre of the oppressed; and Freire’s pedagogies of the oppressed. They represent different ways of staging and hence performing ethnography, resistance and critical pedagogy. They represent different ways of "imagining, and inventing and hence performing alternative imaginaries, alternative counter-performances to war, violence, and the globalized corporate empire" (Schechner 2015). This book provides a systematic treatment of the origins, goals, concepts, genres, methods, aesthetics, ethics and truth conditions of critical performance autoethnography. Denzin uses the performance text as a vehicle for taking up the hard questions about reading, writing, performing and doing critical work that makes a difference.

Bennett, charging the welfare department with gross neglect in addressing the problems of the province's needy.

Download or read book Environmental Planning and Sustainability written by Susan Buckingham and published by . This book was released on 1996-06-19 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Environmental Planning and Sustainability Edited by Susan Buckingham-Hatfield Brunel University College, London and Bob Evans South Bank University, London Environmental Planning and Sustainability critically assesses the concept of sustainability and the way in which it is used as a basis for environmental planning. The book, which brings together authors from a wide range of professions and academic disciplines, argues that national environmental planning is reactive and ad hoc, and calls for a wider ranging refocusing of environmental planning based on reliable and consistent data collection, equitable public participation and a well debated understanding of sustainability. It also argues that the challenge offered by the United Nations through its Agenda 21 programme and by European policies should result in a re-think, not only about how we plan to achieve environmental sustainability, but also about the contexts in which we should do so. Offering a wide range of perspectives on the notion of sustainability and how we should go about achieving it through environmental planning, this book makes essential reading for students, lecturers and researchers in environmental policy and planning, human geography, policy studies, environmental studies and town planning, and for policy makers and practitioners in the field of environmental planning.
