Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Set in New Orleans, this important and powerful novel follows the Boisdoré family . . . in the months after Katrina. A profound, moving and authentically detailed picture of the storm’s emotional impact on those who lived through it.” —People In this dazzling debut about family, home, and grief, C. Morgan Babst takes readers into the heart of Hurricane Katrina and the life of a great city. As the storm is fast approaching the Louisiana coast, Cora Boisdoré refuses to leave the city. Her parents, Joe Boisdoré, an artist descended from freed slaves who became the city’s preeminent furniture makers, and his white “Uptown” wife, Dr. Tess Eshleman, are forced to evacuate without her, setting off a chain of events that leaves their marriage in shambles and Cora catatonic—the victim or perpetrator of some violence mysterious even to herself. This mystery is at the center of Babst’s haunting and profound novel. Cora’s sister, Del, returns to New Orleans from the successful life she built in New York City to find her hometown in ruins and her family deeply alienated from one another. As Del attempts to figure out what happened to her sister, she must also reckon with the racial history of the city and the trauma of a disaster that was not, in fact, some random act of God but an avoidable tragedy visited on New Orleans’s most vulnerable citizens. Separately and together, each member of the Boisdoré clan must find the strength to remake home in a city forever changed. The Floating World is the Katrina story that needed to be told—one with a piercing, unforgettable loveliness and a vivid, intimate understanding of this particular place and its tangled past.

Book excerpt: We have long since lost our faith in the idea that human beings could achieve human happiness in some future ideal state—a state that Thomas More, writing five centuries ago, tied to a topos, a fixed place, a land, an island, a sovereign state under a wise and benevolent ruler. But while we have lost our faith in utopias of all hues, the human aspiration that made this vision so compelling has not died. Instead it is re-emerging today as a vision focused not on the future but on the past, not on a future-to-be-created but on an abandoned and undead past that we could call retrotopia. The emergence of retrotopia is interwoven with the deepening gulf between power and politics that is a defining feature of our contemporary liquid-modern world—the gulf between the ability to get things done and the capability of deciding what things need to be done, a capability once vested with the territorially sovereign state. This deepening gulf has rendered nation-states unable to deliver on their promises, giving rise to a widespread disenchantment with the idea that the future will improve the human condition and a mistrust in the ability of nation-states to make this happen. True to the utopian spirit, retrotopia derives its stimulus from the urge to rectify the failings of the present human condition—though now by resurrecting the failed and forgotten potentials of the past. Imagined aspects of the past, genuine or putative, serve as the main landmarks today in drawing the road-map to a better world. Having lost all faith in the idea of building an alternative society of the future, many turn instead to the grand ideas of the past, buried but not yet dead. Such is retrotopia, the contours of which are examined by Zygmunt Bauman in this sharp dissection of our contemporary romance with the past.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Anthology from the year 2018 in the subject Musicology - Miscellaneous, grade: 1, , course: Base, language: Italian, abstract: Questo testo è la raccolta delle lezioni di educazione musicale da me tenute nelle scuole elementari negli anni che vanno dall’Ottobre del 1978 al Giugno del 1988. Come spesso accade nel campo della didattica, le prime lezioni ebbero un accentuato carattere sperimentale: in quel periodo, infatti, trattati musicali a carattere pedagogico erano pura utopia; i programmi per la scuola elementare erano affatto trascurati, lo stesso Conservatorio, allora come oggi, era assolutamente incapace di preparare docenti e fornire strutture atte ad elaborare elementi validi alla stesura di criteri metodologici di base. Tutto questo nonostante l’elevata richiesta di cultura musicale da parte degli insegnanti, frustrati dalle esperienze negative delle scuole superiori, degli alunni, vittime inconsapevoli dell’improvvisazione e del dilettantismo, e delle famiglie costrette a ricorrere all’insegnamento privato. In questo clima appare evidente quanto difficile sia stato portare avanti un discorso che, se per certi versi ha richiesto numerose modifiche in fase di elaborazione finale, per altri trova oggi nei nuovi programmi di educazione al suono e alla musica per le scuole elementari il giusto riconoscimento ed il naturale sviluppo. Il testo è la copia anastatica della prima edizione del 1988.
