Описание:

In the shadow of the Holocaust, Samuel Beckett captures humanity in ruins through his debased beings and a decomposing mode of writing that strives to 'fail better'. But what might it mean to be a 'creature' or 'creaturely' in Beckett's world? In the first full-length study of the concept of the creature in Beckett's prose and drama, this book traces the suspended lives and melancholic existences of Beckett's ignorant and impotent creatures to assess the extent to which political value marks the divide between human and inhuman.

Through close readings of Beckett's prose and drama, particularly texts from the middle period, including Molloy, Malone Dies, The Unnamable, Waiting for Godot and Endgame, Anderton explicates four arenas of creaturely life in Beckett. Each chapter attends to a particular theme - testimony, power, humour and survival - to analyse a range of pressures and impositions that precipitate the creaturely state of suspension.

Drawing on the writings of Adorno, Agamben, Benjamin, Deleuze and Derrida to explore the overlaps between artistic and political structures of creation, the creature emerges as an in-between figure that bespeaks the provisional nature of the human. The result is a provocative examination of the indirect relationship between art and history through Beckett's treatment of testimony, power, humour and survival, which each attest to the destabilisation of meaning after Auschwitz.

Описание: As the seat of Hitler's government, Berlin was the most frequently targeted city in Germany for Allied bombing campaigns during World War II. Air raids shelled celebrated monuments, left homes uninhabitable, and reduced much of the city to nothing but rubble. After the war's end, this apocalyptic landscape captured the imagination of artists, filmmakers, and writers, who used the ruins to engage with themes of alienation, disillusionment, and moral ambiguity. In Rubble Music, Abby Anderton explores the classical music culture of postwar Berlin, analyzing archival documents, period sources, and musical scores to identify the sound of civilian suffering after urban catastrophe. Anderton reveals how rubble functioned as a literal, figurative, psychological, and sonic element by examining the resonances of trauma heard in the German musical repertoire after 1945. With detailed explorations of reconstituted orchestral ensembles, opera companies, and radio stations, as well as analyses of performances and compositions that were beyond the reach of the Allied occupiers, Anderton demonstrates how German musicians worked through, cleared away, or built over the debris and devastation of the war.

Описание: Since the fall of ancient Rome, kings and emperors have coveted the one Christian relic that guarantees victory in battle - the Holy Lance of St Longinus. The sacred spear that pierced Christ's side at the Crucifixion is jealously guarded by the Hapsburg Holy Roman Emperors and yet, with war clouds gathering over the Danube, others seek to wield this legendary symbol of royal power. The French King, the Ottoman Sultan and a feared warlord who claims descent from the infamous Vlad 'the Impaler' all yearn to possess this priceless treasure - but no one can acquire the Holy Lance without the help of English alchemist and adventurer, Thomas Devilstone.Set during the epic Ottoman-Hapsburg Wars of the early 16th Century, the second instalment of The Devilstone Chronicles follows the outlawed knight, necromancer and soldier-of-fortune Thomas Devilstone as he battles traitors, spies and the mysterious Order of the Dragon in his quest for honour and glory. Will Thomas and the men of the Devil's Band succeed in stealing the Holy Lance? Or will they fall victim to the Order of the Dragon's sinister Grand Master, the man who calls himself Lord Dracul...
