Culture of Hope: A New Birth of the Classical Spirit
ISBN: 9781416576853 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 300 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. As we approach the new millenium, the moral, intellectual, and spiritual crisis of our time is visible most plainly in the sickness of the arts. The "postmodern" cultural establishment is philosophically empty and esthetically corrupt. But no one has been able to explain this decline or give a satisfying answer to the question of the proper role of the arts in our society. Now, in The Culture of Hope -- a manifesto for a new vision of culture that is both radical and classical -- Frederick Turner goes beyond the stale dichotomies of Left and Right to take the "third side" in the...

A rip-roaring, entertaining image of a bygone era that deserves Pulitzer consideration. - Kirkus Reviews . By 1929, the brief, brilliant career of Bix Beiderbecke--self-taught cornetist, pianist, and composer--had already become legend. From the summer of '26 at Hudson Lake, Indiana, when his genius blazed forth with a strange, doomed incandescence, Bix's career tragically reflected the chaotic impulses of a country suddenly awash in wealth, power, and a profound cynicism. Shy, elusive, inarticulate, Bix was beloved by both the raccoon-coated campus crowd and the men who nightly played...
