Painting the Cannon's Roar: Music, the Visual Arts and the Rise of an Attentive Public in the Age of Haydn
ISBN: 9780754603931 / Angielski / Twarda / 536 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. An account of a cultural development of the 18th century that has hitherto received little critical attention. The work describes the emergence of a kind of meeting of aural and visual perceptions in the public sphere, well-recognized at the time, which though largely running its course by the early-19th century left a substantial legacy to the subsequent development of Western culture. The text is founded upon the seemingly implausible premise that, across much of Europe during the period from 1750 to 1810, the paths of the history of music and of the history of painting crossed, with...

Mark E. Smith and The Fall: Art, Music and Politics
ISBN: 9780754668626 / Angielski / Twarda / 226 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This volume offers a comprehensive range of approaches to the work of Mark E. Smith and his band The Fall in relation to music, art and politics. Mark E. Smith remains one of the most divisive and idiosyncratic figures in popular music after a recording career with The Fall that spans thirty years. Although The Fall were originally associated with the contemporaneous punk explosion, from the beginning they pursued a highly original vision of what was possible in the sphere of popular music. While other punk bands burned out after a few years, only to then reform decades later as their own...

Salomé: A Tragedy in One Act
ISBN: 9780813931920 / Angielski / Twarda / 108 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Unique among his works, Oscar Wilde's play Salome (1893) was written originally in French. Joseph Donohue's new translation of the horrific New Testament story has recast Wilde's shockingly radical drama in the natural idiomatic language of our own day. Presenting a colloquial and spare American English version of Wilde's consciously stylized French, Donohue's approach gives full value to the Irish author's dark ruminations on evil and perversity in a world on the brink of a new, unsettling Christian dispensation. The play was first translated into English in 1894 by Wilde's... Unique among his works, Oscar Wilde's play Salome (1893) was written originally in French.
