Описание: Presents a biography of Ruth First, followed by a selection of her writings as a political activist, scholar and journalist. The book presents a timeline summary of significant events in Ruth`s life within the context of major socio-political events of the time. It concludes with a reflection on her legacy from a current perspective and offers a further reading list.
The fateful events of the consequential last months of 1980, how they changed music & politics, and set the tone for today's toxic climate. A story about rock and roll, murder, war, politics, the cultural divide and the current assault on democracy in America.
Fall 1980...a growing distrust for government and a rejection of the counter cultural values of the 1960s bred the rise of a multi-layered conservative movement that results in Ronald Reagan winning the presidency. The coming decade would manage to alter and redefine the political landscape of America, having a direct impact on world events well into the next century.
Fall 1980...former Beatle John Lennon returns to the music world after a five-year absence. With a successful new album, Double Fantasy, Lennon at the age of 40, is attempting to reconcile adulthood with his radical past. It is a celebrated comeback with high hopes for the future until he is murdered in early December.
Fall 1980...31-year old rocker, Bruce Springsteen releases The River to the commercial success that will turn him from a critically-praised cult figure to a worldwide superstar. Unlike John Lennon, however, Springsteen stays out of politics and has never made his views known...until November 4, when he is so profoundly transformed by the election of Ronald Reagan, that it will serve as the dividing line pointing toward the artist he would become while informing his work for the rest of his career.
The last months of 1980 were a political and artistic crossroads for three of the most influential people of modern times. In this critical exploration into a pivotal period of musical and political history, these three lives inadvertently intersect and intertwine during the last months of 1980 and beyond, in ways in which the influence is still felt today. In essence, it is where the 1960s really ends, and the 21st Century begins. Rock and roll's past, rock and roll's future and the future of America with the entire world at stake
Bruce Springsteen's words and music have been part of the American landscape for nearly half a century, and are today cherished by millions worldwide. Indeed, Springsteen has been known to inspire religious devotion among his fans, and his shows with the E Street Band are often compared to a revivalist congregation. However, there has not been a comprehensive scholarly study of the biblical and theological motifs in Springsteen's lyrics.
Until now.
Reading Springsteen's songs as one would a poem, The Grace of God and the Grace of Man sheds new light on Springsteen's work. The book's first section examines the theological overtones of Springsteen's early albums, focusing on his critique of traditional religious institutions and the promise of this-worldly salvation through romantic love and the open road. This trajectory in Springsteen's writing reaches an exhilarating apex in Born to Run, only to be methodically dismantled in the subsequent Darkness on the Edge of Town. The second section of the book examines the ways in which Springsteen reworks three traditional terms in his work after Darkness on the Edge of Town sin, grace, and the struggle within. Drawing on songs from across Springsteen's later work, the book demonstrates that Springsteen consistently situates these terms in the lived struggle to overcome the forces that pull us away from our better selves. Sin is the surrender to these forces, and grace the blessings that come from overcoming them; both result from the struggle within. The third and final section, "Springsteen's Midrash," examines songs that explicitly interpret biblical passages, including "Into the Fire," "Adam Raised a Cain," and the hauntingly beautiful "Jesus Was an Only Son." The Grace of God and the Grace of Man's close readings of Springsteen's songs provide a wealth of local insights as well as a new critical framework for the appreciation of this major American artist.
