Bloch Music.Pdf .. } • I I \-4 /1 -( ........ -- --.----. ~ PHILOSOPHY "When this book was first published, it had a profound effect on major thinkers and artists in Weimar Germany. A poetical philosophical treatise with unusual insights into culture and political commentary, Bloch's book laid the groundwork for thinkers like Adorno and Benjamin, who may have disagreed with him but were strongly influenced by his work. The Spirit of Utopia plays a significant role in the hisrory of German social, political, and cultural thinking." -Jack Zipes, University of Minnesota I am. We are. That is enough. Now we have to start. These are the opening words of Ernst Bloch's first major work, The Spirit of Utopia, written mostly in 1915-16, published in its first version just after the First World War, republished five years later, 1923, in the versIon here presented for the first time in English translation. The Spirit of Utopia is one of the great historic books from the beginning of the century, but it is not an obsolete one. In its style of thinking, a peculiar amalgam of biblical, Marxist, and Expressionist turns, in its analytical skills deeply informed by Simmel, taking its information from both Hegel and Schopenhauer for the groundwork of its metaphysics of music but consistently interpreting the cultural legacy in the light of a certain Marxism, Bloch's The Spirit of Utopia is a unique attempt ro rethink the history of Western civilizations as a process of revolutionary disruptions and ro reread the artworks, religions, and philosophies of this tradition as incentives ro continue disrupting. The alliance between messianism and Marxism, which was proclaimed in this book for the first time with epic breadth, has met with more critique than acclaim. The expressive and baroque diction of the book was considered as offensive as its stubborn disregard for the limits of "disciplines." Yet there is hardly a "discipline" that didn't adopt, however unknowingly, some of Bloch's insights, and his pro­ vocative associations often proved more productive than the statistical account of social shifts. I am. We are. That's hardly anything. But enough to start.

We are. ! That is enough. Now we have to begin. Life has been put in our hands. For itself it became empty already long ago. It pitches senselessly back and fo rth, but we stand firm, and so we want to be its initiative and we want to be its ends. What just was will probably soon be fo rgotten. Only an empty, awful memory hangs in the air. Who was defended? Foul, wretched profiteers. What was young had to fa ll, was fo rced to die fo r ends so alien and in­ imical to the spirit, but the despicable ones were saved, and now they sit there in their comfortable drawing roolllS.i Not one of them was lost, but those who waved other flags, so much bloom, so much dream, so much hope for the spirit, are dead. Th<:: artists defended the middlemen and kept the home fr ont warm for the instigators. There has never been a more dismal military objective than Imperial Germany's: a suffocating coercion imposed by mediocrities and tolerated by mediocrities; a tri­ umph of stupidity, guarded by the gendarme, acclaimed by the intellec­ tuals who did not have enough brains to provide slogans. So of course it has remained, even up to today, as though we had not been burned badly enough. The War ended, the Revolution began, and along with the Revolution, doors opened. But of course, they soon shut. The black marketeer moved, sat back down, and everything obsolete drifted back into place. The profiteering farmer, the mighty grand bour­ geois truly put out the fire in places, and the panicked petit bourgeois helps I 2 Objective to enfeeble and encrust, as always. Nonproletarian youth itself is more coarse and stupid than youth has ever been; the universities have truly be­ come the spirit's burial mounds, filled with the stink of corruption and immovable gloom. So those who apparently have been restored com­ pletely reenact what the reaction of a century ago auditioned: the slogans about native soil, the traditionalism of Vaterland, and that oblivious Ro­ manticism that forgot the Peasant's War and saw only knights' castles ris­ ing into enchanted, moonlit nights. Once again, predictably, the writer helps to apply the brake; indeed, Expressionism's former votaries-incin­ erating what they had just recently exalted-rush to help incompetent lit­ erary homesteaders patch together misrepresentations from the tasteful ruins of the past, in order to bar the way for the vitally formative con­ sciousness of the future,of the city, of the collective; in order to transform profiteers' lies into ideology; in order to make their lamentable hygiene, their doubly imitative Romanticism absolute. Meanwhile the West with its millions of proletarians has not yet spoken; meanwhile there is a Marx­ ist republic in Russia; meanwhile the eternal questions of our souls, of our religious conscience, still burn, undiminished, unbowed, their absolute claims unredeemed. More than that: we have at least learned from the same outlook on reality that came a century ago. Marx thoroughly puri­ fied socialist logic of all simple, false, disengaged and abstract enthusiasm, mere Jacobinism, and we will certainly not forget the spirit of Kant and Baader above all Realpolitik-whereas the Romanticism of the latest re­ action has inherited absolutely nothing real, is neither objective nor en­ thusiastic nor universalistic, but simply stupid, isolated, without spirit and without Christ, in its pathos of the "autochthonous" capable only of eliciting the decline of Western Civilization into animalistic insensibility and irreligious obliteration: faded bud, faded blossom, and for today just a civilized enervation, a large fleet, and merely the pessimistic registration of the continuing passage of history as the only goal, but for Europe only imminent, eternal death. This is how bad things could, had to get with us. Certainly, :l would sing for QlYsupper. But this dance around the golden calf, better,' the calf­ skin with' nothing underneath: this still came as a surprise. It means we have no idea of socialism. Instead we have become the poorest of verte­ brates; whoever among us does not worship his belly worships the state; everything else has sunk to the level of a joke, of entertainment. We have longing, and brief knowledge, but little deed, and-which also explains Objective 3 this lack-no breadth, no outlook, no ends, no inner threshold, pr�sen­ tiently crossed, no kernel, and at the center no gathering conscience of the Absolute.2 Here, however, in this book, a new begin�ing is posited, and the unlost heritage takes possession of itself; that glow deep inside, over there, is no cowardly "as if," no pointless commentary; rather, what rises above all the masquerades and the expired civilizations is the one, the eter­ nal goal, the one presentiment, the one conscience, the one salvation: rises from our hearts, unbroken in spite of everything, from the deepest part, that is, the realest part of our waking dreams: that is, from the last thing remaining to us, the only thing worthy to remain. This book offersan in­ troduction to our figure, our blossoming gathering: it already begins to ring out through our interpretation of a simple pitcher; then as the a pri­ ori latent theme of all the plastic arts, though it is really central to all the magic of music; then, finally, in the ultimate self-encounter, in the com­ prehended darkness of the lived moment, as this one thing leaps up and hears itself in the inconstruable, absolute question, thJ problem of the We in itself. This is as far as the internal path can at first go, namely toward what we call a self-encounter, 'the preparation of the inner word, without which every gaze outward remains empry, instead of being the magnet, the force that draws forth the inner word and helps it break through the falseness of this world.

  • Characteristic Features in the Spectra of Europa, Ganymede, and Callisto V
    ISSN 00380946, Solar System Research, 2014, Vol. 48, No. 1, pp. 48–61. © Pleiades Publishing, Inc., 2014. Original Russian Text © V.V. Busarev, 2014, published in Astronomicheskii Vestnik, 2014, Vol. 48, No. 1, pp. 50–63. Characteristic Features in the Spectra of Europa, Ganymede, and Callisto V. V. Busarev Sternberg Astronomical Institute, Universitetskii pr. 13, Moscow, 119992 Russia Received June 7, 2012 Abstract—The results of groundbased spectrophotometry of the icy Galilean satellites of Jupiter—Europa, Ganymede, and Callisto—are discussed. The observations were carried out in the 0.39–0.92 μm range with the use of the CCD spectrometer mounted on the 1.25m telescope of the Crimean laboratory of the Stern berg Astronomical Institute in March 2004. It is noted that the calculated reflectance spectra of the satellites mainly agree with the analogous data of the earlier groundbased observations and investigations in the Voyager and Galileo space missions. The present study was aimed at identifying new weak absorption bands (with the relative intensity of ~3–5%) in the reflectance spectra of these bodies with laboratory measurements (Landau et al., 1962; Ramaprasad et al., 1978; Burns, 1993; Busarev et al., 2008). It has been ascertained that the spectra of all of the considered objects contain weak absorption bands of molecular oxygen adsorbed into water ice, which is apparently caused by the radiative implantation of O+ ions into the surface material of the satellites in the magnetosphere of Jupiter. At the same time, spectral features of iron of different valence (Fe2+ and Fe3+) values typical of hydrated silicates were detected on Ganymede and Callisto, while probable indi cations of methane of presumably endogenous origin, adsorbed into water ice, were found on Europa.

These conclusions have been reached through independent experiments not related to educational work in foreign countries. While sojourning in Athens I had the pleasure of visiting the best schools, both public and private, and found the reading especially spirited. I examined the books in use and found the regular reading- books to consist of the classic tales of the country, the stories of Herakles, Theseus, Perseus, and so forth, in the reader succeeding the primer, and the stories of Odysseus, or Ulysses, as we commonly call him, following as a third book, answering to our second or third reader.

  • Asteroid Family Identification 613
    Bendjoya and Zappalà: Asteroid Family Identification 613 Asteroid Family Identification Ph. Bendjoya University of Nice V. Zappalà Astronomical Observatory of Torino Asteroid families have long been known to exist, although only recently has the availability of new reliable statistical techniques made it possible to identify a number of very “robust” groupings. These results have laid the foundation for modern physical studies of families, thought to be the direct result of energetic collisional events. A short summary of the current state of affairs in the field of family identification is given, including a list of the most reliable families currently known. Some likely future developments are also discussed. 1. INTRODUCTION calibrate new identification methods. According to the origi- nal papers published in the literature, Brouwer (1951) used The term “asteroid families” is historically linked to the a fairly subjective criterion to subdivide the Flora family name of the Japanese researcher Kiyotsugu Hirayama, who delineated by Hirayama. Arnold (1969) assumed that the was the first to use the concept of orbital proper elements to asteroids are dispersed in the proper-element space in a identify groupings of asteroids characterized by nearly iden- Poisson distribution.

In interpreting brated their method in such a way as to find good agree- these results, Hirayama made the hypothesis that such a ment with Brouwer’s results.

    1,. ,-- ,-- ~XECKDING PAGE BLANK WT FIL,,q DYNAMICAL EVIDENCE REGARDING THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN ASTEROIDS AND METEORITES GEORGE W. WETHERILL Department of Temcltricrl kgnetism ~amregie~mtittition of Washington Washington, D. C. 20025 Meteorites are fragments of small solar system bodies (comets, asteroids and Apollo objects). Therefore they may be expected to provide valuable information regarding these bodies. How- ever, the identification of particular classes of meteorites with particular small bodies or classes of small bodies is at present uncertain. It is very unlikely that any significant quantity of meteoritic material is obtained from typical ac- tive comets. Relatively we1 1-studied dynamical mechanisms exist for transferring material into the vicinity of the Earth from the inner edge of the asteroid belt on an 210~-~year time scale. It seems likely that most iron meteorites are obtained in this way, and a significant yield of complementary differec- tiated meteoritic silicate material may be expected to accom- pany these differentiated iron meteorites. Insofar as data exist, photometric measurements support an association between Apollo objects and chondri tic meteorites. Because Apol lo ob- jects are in orbits which come close to the Earth, and also must be fragmented as they traverse the asteroid belt near aphel ion, there also must be a component of the meteorite flux derived from Apollo objects. Dynamical arguments favor the hypothesis that most Apollo objects are devolatilized comet resiaues. However, plausible dynamical , petrographic, and cosmogonical reasons are known which argue against the simple conclusion of this syllogism, uiz., that chondri tes are of cometary origin. Suggestions are given for future theoretical , observational, experimental investigations directed toward improving our understanding of this puzzling situation.

  • 2011 HP: a Potentially Water-Rich Near-Earth Asteroid. Teague, S.1, Hicks, M.2
    2011 HP: A Potentially Water-Rich Near-Earth Asteroid. Teague, S.1, Hicks, M.2 1-Victor Valley College 2-Jet Propulsion Laboratory, California Institute of Technology Abstract Broadband photometry was obtained to provide data on 2011 HP, a Near-Earth Object (NEO) discovered April 24, 2011. Our data was collected over a series of three nights using the 0.6 m telescope located at Table Mountain Observatory (TMO) in Wrightwood, California. The data was used to construct a solar phase curve for the object which, along with our measured broadband colors, allowed us to determine that the object most likely has a low albedo and a surface composition similar to the carbonaceous chondrite meteorites, which tend to be water-rich. 2011 HP appears to have a Xc type spectral classification, determined by comparison of our rotationally averaged colors (B-R=1.110+/-0.031 mag; V-R=0.393+/-0.030 mag; R-I=0.367+/-0.045 mag) against the 1341 asteroid spectra in the SMASS II database. We assumed a double-peaked lightcurve and were able to determine a period of 3.95+/-0.01 hr. Assuming a low albedo as suggested by the solar phase curve, we estimate the diameter of the object to be ~250 meters, and given that the minimum orbital intersection distance (MOID) equals 0.0274 AU, we recommend that this particular meteorite be re-classified as a Potentially Hazardous Asteroid by the Minor Planet Center. Introduction Asteroid impact craters dot the surface of our Earth as a visual reminder of the ever-present possibility of collisions of space debris with our home planet.

Fornasier1,2, C. Lantz1,2, M.A. Barucci1, M. Lazzarin3 Abstract This work focuses on the study of the aqueous alteration process which acted in the main belt and produced hydrated minerals on the altered asteroids. Hydrated minerals have been found mainly on Mars surface, on main belt primitive asteroids and possibly also on few TNOs. These materials have been produced by hydration of pristine anhydrous silicates during the aqueous alteration process, that, to be active, needed the presence of liquid water under low temperature conditions (below 320 K) to chemically alter the minerals.
