  • THE ART of DREAMING by Carlos Castaneda
    THE ART OF DREAMING By Carlos Castaneda [Version 1.1 - Originally scanned, proofed and released by BELTWAY ] [If you correct any errors, please increment the version number and re-release.] AUTHOR'S NOTE: Over the past twenty years, I have written a series of books about my apprenticeship with a Mexican Yaqui Indian sorcerer, don Juan Matus. I have explained in those books that he taught me sorcery but not as we understand sorcery in the context of our daily world: the use of supernatural powers over others, or the calling of spirits through charms, spells, or rituals to produce supernatural effects. For don Juan, sorcery was the act of embodying some specialized theoretical and practical premises about the nature and role of perception in molding the universe around us. Following don Juan's suggestion, I have refrained from using shamanism, a category proper to anthropology, to classify his knowledge. I have called it all along what he himself called it: sorcery. On examination, however, I realized that calling it sorcery obscures even more the already obscure phenomena he presented to me in his teachings. In anthropological works, shamanism is described as a belief system of some native people of northern Asia-prevailing also among certain native North American Indian tribes-which maintains that an unseen world of ancestral spiritual forces, good and evil, is pervasive around us and that these spiritual forces can be summoned or controlled through the acts of practitioners, who are the intermediaries between the natural and supernatural realms. Don Juan was indeed an intermediary between the natural world of everyday life and an unseen world, which he called not the supernatural but the second attention.

  • STRAUSS Also Sprach Zarathustra. Ein Heldenleben • Vasily Petrenko
    STRAUSS Also sprach Zarathustra. Ein Heldenleben • Vasily Petrenko, cond; Oslo PO • LAWO 1166 (Streaming audio: 79:57) https://app.napster.com/artist/vasily-petrenko/album/richard-strauss-also- sprach-zarathustra-op-30-ein-helden Collectors of Richard Strauss’s tone poems can afford to be finicky, or even to turn their backs on upstart new recordings when we have Fritz Reiner, Rudolf Kempe, and Herbert von Karajan as enduring pillars of the Strauss discography—anytime I return to Reiner’s 1961 Don Juan with the Chicago Symphony, I feel that no greater recording is imaginable. But the call of these orchestral thrill rides never ceases, and in recent years desirable recordings have emerged from Christian Thielemann, Vladimir Jurowski, Manfred Honeck, and François-Xavier Roth. To them can now be added this superb new release from Vasily Petrenko and the Oslo Philharmonic. It’s something of a cheeky release, too, because the pairing of Also sprach Zarathustra and Ein Heldenleben mimics the very first recording, from 1954, that Reiner made in Chicago after assuming leadership of the CSO. The two Living Stereo LPs became a landmark in the postwar hi-fi era, achieving tremendous sales. Although Reiner’s remake of Zarathustra in 1962 is considered superior among collectors, no one would be without the 1954 version. You don’t have to feel guilty about betraying old allegiances, however, to appreciate the vibrancy and imagination that Petrenko brings to these two scores. It’s good news that this CD is the initial installment in a Strauss series from him and the Oslo orchestra.

Abgefasst im Spanien des frühen 17. Jahrhunderts, das zu jener Zeit die Geschicke Europas wesentlich mitbestimmte, wurde der Roman bald zum Inbegriff der spanischen Literatur und Kultur. Von Madrid aus hat er auf den Rest Europas ausgestrahlt und Denker, Dichter, Künstler, Komponisten und später Tilmann Altenberg auch Filmemacher zur Auseinandersetzung mit ihm angeregt. Klaus Meyer-Minnemann (Hg.) Die acht Beiträge des Bandes erkunden zentrale Aspekte des cervantinischen Romans und gehen seiner Rezeption und Verar- beitung in Literatur, Kunst, Film und Musik im europäischen Kontext nach. Europäische Dimensionen des Inhalt: · Klaus Meyer-Minnemann: Zur Entstehung, Konzeption und Wir- Film und Musik Kunst, in Literatur, Don Quijote in Literatur, Kunst, kung des Don Quijote in der europäischen Literatur · Hans-Jörg Neuschäfer: Boccaccio, Cervantes und der utopische Possibilismus Film und Musik · Katharina Niemeyer: Der Furz des Sancho Panza oder Don Quijote als komischer Roman Don Quijote · Dieter Ingenschay: Don Quijote in der spanischen und deutschen Literaturwissenschaft · Johannes Hartau: Don Quijote als Thema der bildenden Kunst · Tilmann Altenberg: Don Quijote im Film · Bárbara P.

  • 1 the Alps, Richard Strauss's Alpine Symphony and Environmentalism
    Note: This is an expanded version of an article appearing in the journal Green Letters (2011); it is intended for a literary rather than musical readership, and the punctuation and spellings are British. The Alps, Richard Strauss’s Alpine Symphony and Environmentalism By Brooks Toliver Introduction After love and death, nature may well be European music’s preferred theme; it figures significantly in troubadour cansos, pastoral madrigals and operas, tone poems, impressionistic preludes, and elsewhere. In light of this it is puzzling how seldom actual nature is invoked in musical discourse. Composers—Richard Strauss among them—have been known to seek out nature in the manner of landscape painters, but there is no similar tradition among the critics, who ground nature-music and their judgments of it not in nature but in other music and criticism. When confronted with the vivid imagery of Strauss’s Alpine Symphony (1915), contemporaries wrote primarily of the aesthetics of vivid imagery, relegating the images themselves to the level of anecdote. Musicologists are quite adept at exploring the relationship of works to cultural constructions of nature, but relatively few have brought real environments into the discussion of canonical music. There has as yet been no serious consideration of how the Alps might be critical to an appreciation of the Alpine Symphony, nor has anyone theorized what the consequences of the Alpine Symphony might be for the Alps. Surely it is worth asking whether it metaphorically embodies sustaining or destructive relationships to the environment it represents, if it respects or disrespects nonhuman nature, and if love of nature is contingent on a symbolic domination of it, to name just three questions.

  • Briefe Aus Italien
    *«> THE LIBRARY OF THE UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA LOS ANGELES EX LIBRIS GUSTAV GLÜCK Ubi o CARL JUSTI BRIEFE AUS ITALIEN 1922 VERLAG VON FRIEDRICH COHEN • BONN Carl Jusii 1868 CARL JUSTI BRIEFE AUS ITALIEN 1922 VERLAG VON FRIEDRICH COHEN • BONN Copyright 1922 by Friedrich Cohen, Bonn Art Library VORWORT WENN Carl Justi es unternommen hat, in Briefen an die Seinen Eindrücke bei seiner ersten Fahrt nach Italien, das er schon so lange sehnsüchtig mit der Seele gesucht hatte, zu schildern, so wird man erwarten können, daß die Fähigkeit, die ihn zum ersten Kunstkenner unserer Zeit gemacht hat, auch hier sich zeigen werde, die Fähigkeit, überall das Characteristische zu sehen und das Schöne zu empfinden. Und denkt man weiter an den Meister des Worts, als welcher er sich in seinen Büchern ge- zeigt hat, an die unglaubliche Vielseitigkeit seiner Kenntnisse in Geschichte und Literatur, so wird man nicht zweifeln, daß seine Berichte aus Italien durch ganz besondere Reize ausgezeichnet sein werden. Daher wurde mir dieErlaubniß der Schwester des großen Meisters, diese Briefe zu lesen, welche er von der Reise an Eltern vmd Ge- schwister gerichtet hat, zu einem werthvollen Geschenk. Und ich fand meine Erwartungen ganz erfüllt. Justi giebt nicht einen eigent- lichen Reisebericht, sondern er greift einzelne Scenen aus dem Er- lebten und Geschauten heraus; mag er über Kirnst sprechen, oder über Kirchen- und Volksfeste, Naturschildervmgen geben oder Menschen zeichnen, immer sind es in sich vollendete Skizzen, feine Vergleiche, geistvolle Bemerkungen, die oft einem selbst nur dunkel bewußt gewordene Empfindungen klar aussprechen. Die Leetüre wurde mir ein hoher Genuß, und da meinte ich, daß es vielen ebenso gehen werde, wie mir.
