Metaphysical Song: An Essay on Opera
ISBN: 9780691004099 / Angielski / Miękka / 1999 / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych. In this bold recasting of operatic history, Gary Tomlinson connects opera to shifting visions of metaphysics and selfhood across the last four hundred years. The operatic voice, he maintains, has always acted to open invisible, supersensible realms to the perceptions of its listeners. In doing so, it has articulated changing relations between the self and metaphysics. Tomlinson examines these relations as they have been described by philosophers from Ficino through Descartes, Kant, and Nietzsche, to Adorno, all of whom worked to define the subject's place in both material and metaphysical...

Music in Renaissance Magic: Toward a Historiography of Others
ISBN: 9780226807928 / Angielski / Miękka / 1994 / 308 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych. Magic enjoyed a vigorous revival in sixteenth-century Europe, attaining a prestige lost for over a millennium and becoming, for some, a kind of universal philosophy. Renaissance music also suggested a form of universal knowledge through renewed interest in two ancient themes: the Pythagorean and Platonic "harmony of the celestial spheres" and the legendary effects of the music of bards like Orpheus, Arion, and David. In this climate, Renaissance philosophers drew many new and provocative connections between music and the occult sciences.

In The Singing of the New World Gary Tomlinson offers histories of ancient music long since silent: the songs of the Indians that Europeans met in the sixteenth century.

"Though cannon may take my head or its shards pierce my body to halves...yet, I cannot die. I am protected. I am cursed. I am unnaturally immortal until the end of time." Caliphilus, Pilate's gatekeeper, the sadistic individual who reveled in scourging The Christ, was cursed by Jesus to live until His return at our time's own end. Many have wondered what such a man might have done with his now two-thousand-plus years of weary existence. Perhaps an angel was appointed to keep him alive to face the endless days, essentially making him immortal till Christ's return. What incredible insights,...
