  • Matthew Sweet Tomorrow’S Daughter
    MATTHEW SWEET TOMORROW’S DAUGHTER "When I was young, the artists that I really admired were the ones who always found a way to keep making music and expressing themselves," Matthew Sweet says on the occasion of the release of his 13th solo album Tomorrow's Daughter. "To me, those guys were the real artists, and I've tried to hold on to that attitude in my own work." The seasoned singer/songwriter/producer/multi-instrumentalist is currently in the midst of a personal musical renaissance that's seen him produce some of the most compelling and ambitious music of his three-decade career. That description applies to Tomorrow's Daughter, on which such instantly memorable new tunes as "Belong," "Run Away," "Lady Frankenstein" and "Out of My Misery" demonstrate his uncanny ability to tap into a bottomless well of pop history to craft music that's effortlessly catchy yet deeply personal. Tomorrow's Daughter—the follow-up to the artist's acclaimed 2017 set Tomorrow Forever—is a persuasive testament to the enduring qualities of Sweet's adventurous, emotion-charged songcraft. The new album's 12 songs abound with the punchy melodic sensibility, playful sonic experimentalism and introspective lyrical insight that have been constants in his expansive catalogue. Tomorrow's Daughter is the product of a burst of creative inspiration that followed Sweet's 2013 return to his native Nebraska, where he reestablished his Black Squirrel Submarine home studio. This period yielded 38 brilliant new songs, 17 of which appeared on Tomorrow Forever. It instantly became clear that this potent body of work merited a follow-up release, hence Tomorrow's Daughter.

När det var jag som började vara ansvarig för uppdateringarna. Det allra tidigaste beviset jag kan finna på en lista som det med hundraprocentig säkerhet var jag som stod för är från december 2014. Så jag har inte riktigt gjort det i ett decennium än. Men jag är rätt säker på att det här är den absolut största uppdateringen jag har gjort. I alla fall är det, utan minsta tvivel, den största uppdateringen på så här kort tid, eftersom det inte ens var två månader sedan den förra listan. Vi hade nämligen förra månaden ett litet event. En karaokemakartävling som löpte över fyra veckor. Summa summarum: Över hundra nya låtar i listan. Plus ett gäng uppdaterade versioner av sånt vi redan hade. Själv har jag se’n sist i princip bara gjort One Piece och Nichijou-låtar, så där finns det diverse nytt att hämta. Högst takt höll Nea, som dessutom fokuserade mycket på nyare populära serier.

  • Youth, Modernism, and the Deferral of Maturity Jan
    Forever Young: Youth, Modernism, and the Deferral of Maturity Jan Küveler Submitted in partial fulfllment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2014 © 2014 Jan Küveler All rights reserved ABSTRACT Forever Young: Youth, Modernism, and the Deferral of Maturity Jan Küveler This dissertation is about adolescents in European literature between 1900 and the First World War who shy away from maturity. The authors discussed are Franz Kafa, James Joyce, Robert Musil, Georg Büchner, J.M. Barrie, Robert Walser, Rudyard Kipling and Witold Gombrowicz. The main argument is that the remark- able proliferation around 1900 of novels whose protagonists, by some means or other, avoid growing up is not due to a somewhat twisted afliation to the genre of the late and ultimately failed Bildungsroman, but rather to an underestimated branch of modernism. At frst glance, their strategy of retreat looks like a finching from societal responsibility, yet the opposite turns out to be true. Instead of repre- senting an early instance of the prolonged adolescence that has nowadays become proverbial, their recoiling from maturity entails a critique of the totalizing tenden- cies inherent to the ideals of Bildung and Enlightenment.

  • George Macdonald - Poems
    Classic Poetry Series George MacDonald - poems - Publication Date: 2012 Publisher: Poemhunter.com - The World's Poetry Archive George MacDonald(10 December 1824 – 18 September 1905) George MacDonald was a Scottish author, poet, and Christian minister. Known particularly for his poignant fairy tales and fantasy novels, George MacDonald inspired many authors, such as <a href="http://www.poemhunter.com/wystan-hugh-auden/">W.H. Audent</a>, <a href="http://www.poemhunter.com/john-ronald-reuel-tolkien/">J.R.R. Tolkien</a>, <a href="http://www.poemhunter.com/clive-staples-c-s- lewis/">C.S. Lewis</a>, <a href="http://www.poemhunter.com/edith- nesbit/">E. Nesbit</a> and Madeleine L'Engle. It was C.S. Lewis who wrote that he regarded MacDonald as his "master": "Picking up a copy of Phantastes one day at a train-station bookstall, I began to read. A few hours later," said Lewis, "I knew that I had crossed a great frontier." <a href="http://www.poemhunter.com/gilbert-keith-chesterton/">G.K. Chesterton</a> cited The Princess and the Goblin as a book that had "made a difference to my whole existence." Elizabeth Yates wrote of Sir Gibbie, "It moved me the way books did when, as a child, the great gates of literature began to open and first encounters with noble thoughts and utterances were unspeakably thrilling." Even <a href="http://www.poemhunter.com/mark-twain/">Mark Twain</a>, who initially disliked MacDonald, became friends with him, and there is some evidence that Twain was influenced by MacDonald. <b>Life and Career</b> George MacDonald was born on the 10th of December 1824 at Huntly, Aberdeenshire, Scotland.
