The Sound of Pictures is an illuminating journey through the soundtracks of more than 400 films. How do filmmakers play with sound? And how does that affect the way we watch their movies?

And he explores some of cinema's...

The Origins of Criticism: Literary Culture and Poetic Theory in Classical Greece
ISBN: 9780691120256 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 356 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. By "literary criticism" we usually mean a self-conscious act involving the technical and aesthetic appraisal, by individuals, of autonomous works of art. Aristotle and Plato come to mind. The word "social" does not. Yet, as this book shows, it should--if, that is, we wish to understand where literary criticism as we think of it today came from. Andrew Ford offers a new understanding of the development of criticism, demonstrating that its roots stretch back long before the sophists to public commentary on the performance of songs and poems in the preliterary era of ancient Greece. He... By "literary criticism" we usually mean a self-conscious act involving the technical and aesthetic appraisal, by individuals, of autonomous works o... |

ISBN: 9781863955287 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 302 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. A delightful and informative history of modern music. Harmony is created by bringing sounds together. In music lessons, we learn how to do this in a formal way: we learn about chords and keys, and we are given rules for using them. This is the textbook way; this is legal harmony. Everything else - including the sounds that constantly surround us, those of ticking clocks, dogs, traffic, birdsong and aeroplanes - is illegal harmony. Illegal Harmonies charts the course of music over the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, linking it to developments in literature, theatre, cinema and the visual...

Aristotle as Poet: The Song for Hermias and Its Contexts
ISBN: 9780199733293 / Angielski / Twarda / 2011 / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Aristotle is known as a philosopher and as a theorist of poetry, but he was also a composer of songs and verse. This is the first comprehensive study of Aristotle's poetic activity, interpreting his remaining fragments in relation to the earlier poetic tradition and to the literary culture of his time.

This remarkable text is said to have embroiled the philosopher in charges of impiety and so is studied both from a literary...
