  • Wilco-Songs Minimalistisch
    Folkdays … Wilco-Songs minimalistisch Musik | Jeff Tweedy: Together At Last Jeff Tweedy, das ist einerseits ein Singer-Songwriter, andererseits ist er der Macher von Wilco in Zusammenarbeit mit John Stirratt, Glenn Kotche, Mikael Jorgensen, Nels Cline und Pat Sansone. Er war auch einmal mit dem Band-Projekt Golden Smog zu hören und es gibt neue Bands von ihm genannt Loose Fur und Tweedy. Das zuerst kurz als Fakten. Von TINA KAROLINA STAUNER Das neue Album von Jeff Tweedy ›Together At Last‹ ist wie ein Überbleibsel aus einer Zeit, in der die Freude Americana, Alternative Country und Neofolk zu hören manchmal fast ungetrübt war. Kein Mainstream laberte irgendeinen Klimbim dazwischen und neben Befindlichkeits- und Beziehungstexten war Sozial- und Gesellschaftskritik in Lyrics ein Zeichen für Anspruch und Niveau. Die Chicagoer Independent-Band Wilco hatte sich mit den ersten Alben in den 1990er Jahren mit Leib und Seele in den Spirit einer ganzen Independent-Generation gespielt. Entstanden aus Uncle Tupelo war Wilco immer wichtig im Diskurs. Bezogen auf traditionelles Wissen über Country und Folk hatte die Band einen ureigenen Sound und integrierte manchmal auch neue und elektronische Klänge in den Kontext. Mittlerweile scheint Jeff Tweedy teils zynisch bis zum geht-nicht-mehr und nach ›Star Wars‹ und ›Schmilco‹ mit Cover-Artwork wie ein Cartoon kam ein ›Together At Last‹. Vergangenheit ist das Woody Guthrie Project, das er mit Nora Guthrie und Billy Bragg vor Jahren veröffentlichte. Vergangenheit sind die frühen Independent-Jahre, wenn es überhaupt noch Leute gibt, die sich daran erinnern. Vergangenheit ist die Band-Dokumentation ›Man in the Sand‹. Vergangenheit sind Songs wie ›In A Future Age‹.

  • Wednesday Reflection: Rabbits
    Wednesday Reflection: Rabbits Over the past few weeks I have been reflecting on visitors to the manse garden, including hedgehogs, butterflies, bats and fairies. Towards evening, we are blessed with an occasional visit from rabbits. Quietly, they sneak under the fence and stand motionless, poised in the middle of the lawn. The moment the spot me watching them they dart out of sight with immense speed. What might we say of rabbits in the Christian tradition? Dating from the Mediaeval period, many churches have rabbits carved into the stonework. Rabbits and hares were often depicted interchangeably. Three hares sharing ears between them artistically represent the Holy Trinity: Father, Son and Holy Spirit. There is an excellent example of this in Paderborn Cathedral in Germany. In his painting Agony in the Garden, the Italian artist, Andrea Mantegna, portrays the suffering of Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane. The disciples lie asleep while Christ prays on an elevated rock. The imposing walls of the city of Jerusalem can be seen in the background. Under the night sky, three rabbits conspicuously sit on the path which meanders through the garden. A symbol of the Trinity, one of the rabbits makes its way to be with Jesus; this is the Second Person of the Trinity. Elsewhere in Christianity, rabbits are a symbol of sin. In Wimborne Minster in Dorset, there are two ornate stone corbels. In the first, a rabbit is in the mouth of a hound and, in the second, a rabbit is being hunted by a hawk. In both cases, these images represent Christ hunting sin.

Action Plan p59 Appendix: Tavistock Statement of Significance p62 Bibliography p76 Acknowledgement The author is grateful to Alex Mettler and Barry Gamble for their assistance in preparing this strategy. 1 Introduction This strategy sets out a framework and action plan for improving interpretation in Tavistock and for enabling the town to fulfil the requirements of a Key Centre within the Cornwall and West Devon Mining Landscape World Heritage Site (WHS). It is intended to complement the Tavistock World Heritage Site Key Centre Learning Strategy (Kell 2013) which concentrates on learning activities and people. Consequently the focus here is primarily on interpretive content and infrastructure rather than personnel. Aims and objectives The brief set by the Tavistock World Heritage Site Key Centre Steering Group was to identify a consistent, integrated approach to presenting the full range of themes arising from the Outstanding Universal Value of WHS Areas 8, 9 and 10 and to respond to the specific recommendations arising from the WHS Interpretation Strategy (WHS 2005). We were asked to: x Address interpretation priorities in the context of the Cornish Mining WHS x Identify and prioritise target audiences x Set out a clearly articulated framework and action plan for the development of interpretation provision in WHS Area 10, including recommendations which address x Product development (i.e.

Mircea Eliade and Hugh Nibley, who introduced a young boy to comparative mythology. To Lord Dunsany and Mr. H. P. Lovecraft, who pioneered the art of literary mythopoeia. And To Messrs. M. A. R.

Why is it here? Where is it going? Why, for the sake of all that’s holy, do I think that you care about yet another book on mythology? Surely, you must be thinking to yourself, you have no need for one (even if it is free). You have three already. Maybe even more! Here’s the difference: Those books that you have will tell you who Hades was. Maybe it’ll be incredibly in-depth and inform you of every variation of every myth that ever featured him. You’ll know a lot about Hades after you read that incredibly thorough book. And after you read the entries on a dozen or so other death divinities, you’ll have a pretty good idea of their common traits. This book approaches the matter from the complete opposite direction. It tells you about death divinities as a class, and then it casually mentions Hades as a number of examples.

    The Gift of Letting Go: May 30, 2021 Let's begin with a mystery today... shall we? In the early 1600's... [1 HTC Suffolk] There was a bit of iconoclastic fervor... That accompanied the reformation movements... Throughout Germany and England. Meaning that... People who were anti-Catholic... Mucked about... Smashing statues... Images of saints... Art of all kinds... In churches... Including stained glass windows. One of the churches attacked in this way... Was Holy Trinity Church in Long Meldford, Suffolk, England. This is the stained glass work... [2 HTC North Door] Found above the north door... You have St. Dominic on the left... St. Peter on the right. And Mary cradling the crucified Jesus... In the center. But if you look very closely... There's a little round window... Under all the amazing art. This is a closeup of that... [3 HTC 3 Hares] Itty bitty round window. It's called the Three Hares. You can see where the window was repaired... But more interesting than that... Is the fact that there are three hares... Not rabbits... mind you... Rabbits have shorty ears... Hares have long ears. So... three hares... [4 Three Hares] But did you notice... There are only three ears. Among them. Sure... it looks like they have two ears each... But in reality... there are only... A total of three ears. They say... this is an image of the Holy Trinity. Because they are all connected... In fact they share each other's ears... But they are all individual hares. Three in One. One in Three.
