This portrait of the legendary singer, artist and poet explores themes of spirituality, history and self expression. Known as the godmother of punk, she emerged in the 1970’s, galvanizing the music scene with her unique style of poetic rage, music and trademark swagger.

The former tells me he has been obliged to exchange the beautiful Hanover for the ugly Dortmund, nevertheless in the former place, or rather in Leinhausen, he was but second in command, in Dortmund he is chief of the Royal Locomotive Department. Limpricht’s letter as usual contains much news of interest. He tells me that he is agent for von Soden, at present Governor of Kamerun on the West Coast of Africa, for whom he has many purchases to make, upon which he charges a small commission. Von Soden, it will be remembered, was German Minister in Perú, and rented some apartments in our house at the time Limpricht also resided in Lima. He further tells me that he has been present at the wedding of his niece Martha with Mr. Moeller, Private Teacher of Botany at the University of Greifswald; not less than fifty persons had sat down to the banquet. He also speaks of the abund[_] of money; Hamburg had contracted a loan of 18 million marks without difficulty at 3 per cent annual interest, and the interest on Prussian Consuls had been reduced from 4% to 3 1/2%, in which I much fear I am also interested. He says, finally, a few words regarding the will of the late Daniel Schutte, but, as he only speaks from hearsay, I prefer giving the details which we have learned from Mr.

  • A Short Biography of Heinrich Witt*

    A Short Biography of Heinrich Witt*

    A Short Biography of Heinrich Witt* Christa Wetzel The following short biography reconstructs Heinrich Witt’s life according to the information provided by his diary as well as from other sources. It is limited to presenting the main lines of the course of his life – in the full knowledge that any definition of a life’s “main lines” is already an interpretation. A common thread of the narration, apart from those personal data and events as one expects from a biography (birth, family, education, vocation, marriage, death), are the business activities of Heinrich Witt as a merchant. Thus, the description of his life gives a sketch of the economic and social networks characterizing the life, both mobile and settled, of Heinrich Witt as a migrant. However, this biography will not and cannot provide a detailed description of each of Witt’s business activities or of his everyday life or of the many people to which he had contact in Germany, Europe and Peru. Even if, according to Bourdieu, the course a life has taken cannot be grasped without knowledge of and constant reflection on the “Metro map”, this biography also does not give a comprehensive description of the period, i.e. of the political, economic, social and cultural events and discourses in Peru, Europe or, following Witt’s view, on the entire globe.1 Furthermore, this rather “outward” biography is not the place to give a reconstruction of Witt’s world of emotions or the way in which he saw and reflected on himself. All this will be left to the discoveries to be made when reading his diary.

    Patti Smith, Polar Music Prize Laureate 2011 Patti Smith, Born In

    Patti Smith, Polar Music Prize Laureate 2011 Patti Smith, born in Chicago in 1946, the oldest of four siblings, was raised in South Jersey. From an early age she gravitated toward the arts and human rights issues. She studied at Glassboro State Teachers College and migrated to New York City in 1967. She teamed up with art student Robert Mapplethorpe and the two encouraged each other’s work process, both of them pursuing painting and drawing and she poetry. In February 1971 Smith performed her first public reading at St. Mark’s Church on the lower eastside, accompanied by Lenny Kaye on guitar. In April of the same year she co-wrote and performed the play Cowboy Mouth with playwright Sam Shepard. Continuing to write and perform her poetry, in 1974 Smith and Lenny Kaye added Richard Sohl on piano. As a trio they played regularly around New York, including the legendary Max’s Kansas City, centering on their collective and varied musical roots and her improvised poetry. The independent single release, Hey Joe/Piss Factory, featured Tom Verlaine. Along with the highly innovative and influential group Television, the trio helped to open up a restricted music scene that centered at CBGBs in New York City. After recruiting guitarist Ivan Kral, they played CBGBs for eight weeks in the Spring of 1975 and then added drummer Jay Dee Daugherty. Smith described their work as “three chords merged with the power of the word.” Smith was signed by Clive Davis to his fledgling Arista label and recorded four albums: Horses (produced by John Cale), Radio Ethiopia (produced by Jack Douglas), Easter (produced by Jimmy Iovine), which included her top twenty hit Because the Night, co-written with Bruce Springsteen, and Wave (produced by Todd Rundgren).

    Le Simplegadi ISSN 1824-5226 Vol. XVIII-No. 20 November 2020 DOI: 10.17456/SIMPLE-160 This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 Giulio Carlo Pantalei Because the Poet: Pasolini According to Patti Smith Abstract I: The transdisciplinary dialogue, the rebellious attitude, and the sublimation of dissidence by experimenting new forms as an act of hope are the key features of the relationship between Pier Paolo Pasolini and Patti Smith, who saluted the Italian writer as one of her greatest teachers throughout her entire career, along with Blake, Rimbaud and the Beats. From the poetry of Babel to the lyrics of Easter, passing through the photographic series Pasolini es vie, the eclectic American artist has never ceased to appraise the literary works and movies of this author as a constant source of inspiration, creating a bond that became very important to the audience but was never properly explored by the critics. In terms of reception, one should not forget that this original relationship also led many (especially outside Italy) to discover the figure of Pasolini. This article seeks to investigate Patti Smith’s Pasolini and the works that influenced her most, revealing through an intertextual and interdiscursive approach how the poet contributed to shape the imaginary and spiritual vision of one among the most important lyrical voices in the world today. Abstract II: Il dialogo interdisciplinare, l’attitudine ribelle e la sublimazione della dissi- denza attraverso la sperimentazione di nuove forme come atto di speranza sono i nodi cruciali del rapporto tra Pier Paolo Pasolini e Patti Smith, che ha sempre considerato lo scrittore italiano tra i suoi più grandi maestri lungo tutta la sua carriera, accanto a Blake, Rimbaud e la Beat Generation.

I know I am not just a fashion photogra - pher. And Patti Smith is certainly not just a rock icon. She is much more. For me, this movie is about discovering who Patti Smith is. This process of discovery has taken place over the course of 11 in - credible years of filming. I can’t believe it, but a quarter of my life has been spent framing her in my lens. And through this film, I want to channel that experience to the audience. It all happened so organically. I was just interested in her and in get - ting to know her as a person. As our friendship blossomed over a decade, and as I got to know her, my lens was getting to know her as well. Patti is a constant reminder to me that there’s an urgency in the world. everyone sits back in his or her comfort zone. No one goes to record stores and researches new artists anymore. So few people are out there knocking down the walls. Nowadays, everything is presented to us in an easily digestible format, accessible with the click of a button.

    Numer 2/2016 (7) Joanna Roś Uniwersytet Warszawski Punk woven from cotton candy. Patti Smith, Poland and poetic prose Patti Smith’s poetic prose Woolgathering (1992) was published in Poland in 2014, more than twenty years after its publication in the United States. The author of the essay, following the reception of this book among Polish readers, wants to shed light on the presence of Patti Smith as a writer, not just a singer, in Polish culture. She shows the important components, building the literary works of the American artist that have never been sufficiently recognized by Polish audience. Keywords: Patti Smith, American literature, reception of literature, rock music, performance Słowa kluczowe: Patti Smith, literatura amerykańska, recepcja literatury, muzyka rockowa, performens Polish discussion with Patti Smith Patti Smith, an American writer and visual artist, better known as singer and songwriter, regarded as a central figure in “the world of rock and roll” from 1975 to the present day has released eleven albums, but nowadays her music is not particularly well known in Poland, rarely may we hear her songs on the radio. This is, of course, a big simplification. In connection with the two concerts of the artist which took place in Poland within a short time (Warsaw – 2014, Katowice – 2015) and the publication of her two literary works (Just Kids – 2012, Woolgathering – 2014) in our country (Smith, 2012a; Smith, 2014) for example Radio Three promoted her figure and achievements (Trójka 2012; Trójka 2014; Trójka 2015). The interest of the listeners resulted in that Patti Smith’s music is a surprisingly frequent guest on Radio Three now.
