Sitting Pretty: The Life and Times of Clifton Webb
ISBN: 9781496807984 / Angielski / Miękka / 280 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. More than any other male movie star, the refined Clifton Webb (1889-1966) caused the movie-going public to change its image of a leading man. In a day when leading men were supposed to be strong, virile, and brave, Clifton Webb projected an image of flip, acerbic arrogance. He was able to play everything from a decadent columnist (Laura) to a fertile father (Cheaper by the Dozen and The Remarkable Mr. Pennypacker), delivering lines in an urbanely clipped, acidly dry manner with impeccable timing. Sitting Pretty is his remarkable story. Long before his film...

Ersichtlich Gewordene Taten Der Musik: Musikalische Ausdrucksbestimmungen in Wagners Ring
ISBN: 9783631364789 / Niemiecki / Twarda / 324 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Wagner hatte, wie er einmal schrieb, seine Dramen gern als -ersichtlich gewordene Taten der Musik- bezeichnet. Was er damit meinte, hat bis heute noch keiner richtig erklart. Es geht um die Frage, wie klingende Tonfolgen, die wir in erster Linie horen, plotzlich etwas in uns bewirken konnen, das uns -ersichtlich- wird. Diese vom Horen zum Sehen erweiterte Wahrnehmungsform ergibt sich daraus, dass jede Musik durch ihren Ablauf eine Bewegung in der Zeit und durch ihren Tonhohenwechsel eine solche im Raum gestaltet. Durch ihren Bewegungsausdruck lost sie im Bewusstsein des Horers...

Statt Autorintentionalitaten und Analysen abgeschlossener Werke, von denen man erwartet, dass sie ihre Bedeutung durch sich selbst hervorbringen, wahrend der Rezipient an ihnen...
