Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Theme With Variations, Vol. 6 An Echo Dear one, dear one, whom you are I shall not say, for I know not. The thousand beauties you have been My eyes have seen and have forgot. All the wisdom you have known And shared with me, and put aside, Even this attribute has gone. For something of your grace has died With every moment of our years, Dying in birth of lovelier Joys in joys and fears in fears. Love with you is change. Your love Is fire consuming in desire, A strange and dreadful power, a wild And startled ecstasy, a pang Of opposites grown reconciled. You do not know your strength. You take, And take again, and bind, and break; And lo! the shard of me that's left Rings in your hands, both new and round, Whole as a sword again, a bell On which an ancient summons rang Once, and is vibrating still, Linking our lives with noose of sound, Deep echoes of an earlier name Sighed out at night in worlds remote, Sighed out with joy, subdued with shame. My ears have heard it, and forgot. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Variations on a Theme Park written by Michael Sorkin and published by Macmillan. This book was released on 1992-03 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: America's cities are being rapidly transformed by a sinister and homogenous design. A new Kind of urbanism--manipulative, dispersed, and hostile to traditional public space--is emerging both at the heart and at the edge of town in megamalls, corporate enclaves, gentrified zones, and psuedo-historic marketplaces. If anything can be described as a paradigm for these places, it's the theme park, an apparently benign environment in which all is structured to achieve maximum control and in which the idea of authentic interaction among citizens has been thoroughly purged. In this bold collection, eight of our leading urbanists and architectural critics explore the emblematic sites of this new cityscape--from Silicon Valley to Epcot Center, South Street Seaport to downtown Los Angeles--and reveal their disturbing implications for American public life.

Download or read book The Variations of Johannes Brahms written by Julian Littlewood and published by Plumbago Books and Arts. This book was released on 2004 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Variation is a fundamental musical principle, yet its most naked expression - variation form - resists all but the broadest of descriptions. This book offers listener, performer, analyst and composer an eclectic array of approaches to `Theme and Variations', including: patterns of departure and return; real versus perceived time; strategies of propulsion and closure in an intrinsically cyclic and open-ended form; the interplay of authorial voices deriving from dialogue between the `self' of variations and the `other' of their theme; critique of a theme through a set's generic references; drama and narrative achieved through textural and tonal control; and the intrinsic sound of a variation, so different from that of a freely composed work. These topics are introduced through a general survey of the form, seen through the prisms of the provenance of themes and the ideologies of sets, before being developed through close study of Brahms's variation sets and movements. Brahms was supremely aware of his place in music history and was uncommonly self-conscious in his manipulation of different techniques of composition. His variation sets - some of the most well-crafted and beloved examples - place the interplay of forms and styles at the heart of their identity. Moreover, in their stunning breadth and diversity they offer a microcosm of Brahms's entire output, a succinct revelation of his life-long concerns. Through them we marvel at his technical and poetic mastery, and journey to the heart of his creative character.
