After the Lovedeath: Sexual Violence and Making of Culture
ISBN: 9780520224896 / Angielski / Miękka / 2000 / 290 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This elegantly written book is a bold attempt to reinterpret the nature of sexual violence and to imagine the possibility of overcoming it. Lawrence Kramer traces today's sexual identities to their nineteenth-century sources, drawing on the music, literature, and thought of the period to show how normal identity both promotes and rationalizes violence against women. To make his case, Kramer uses operatic lovedeaths, Beethoven's "Kreutzer Sonata" and the Tolstoy novella named after it; the writings of Walt Whitman and Alfred Lord Tennyson, psychoanalysis, and the logic of dreams. In formal...

Walt Whitman and Modern Music: War, Desire, and the Trials of Nationhood
ISBN: 9780815331544 / Angielski / Twarda / 2000 / 202 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Walt Whitman's poetry, especially his Civil War poetry, attracted settings by a wide variety of modern composers in both English- and German-speaking countries.

The book is accompanied by a CD recording by Joan Heller and Thomas...

Interpreting Music is a comprehensive essay on understanding musical meaning and performing music meaningfully interpreting music in both senses of the term. Synthesizing and advancing two decades of highly influential work, Lawrence Kramer fundamentally rethinks the concepts of work, score, performance, performativity, interpretation, and meaningeven the very concept of musicwhile breaking down conventional wisdom and received ideas.

On Voice
ISBN: 9789042038219 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 236 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The essays collected here raise a simple but rarely asked question: just what, exactly, is voice? From this founding question, many others proliferate: Is voice an animal category, as Aristotle thought? Or is it distinctively human? Is it essentially related to language? To music? To song and singing? Is it a mark of presence or of absence? Is it a kind of object? How is our sense of voice affected by the development of recording technology? The authors in this volume approach such questions primarily by turning away from a general idea of voice and instead investigating what can be learned...
