Abstract

The book is the first full-length text on Anthony Burgess's fiction in a generation, and offers a radical and innovative way of understanding the extensive literary achievements of one of the twentieth century's most innovative authors. This book explores Burgess's dazzlingly diverse range of novels through the one key theme which links them all – the artistic process itself. Borrowing from Nietzsche's aesthetic dichotomy of Apollo and Dionysus, the book uncovers the protracted evolution of Burgess's fiction and offers a unifying theory which links his early postcolonial fiction chronologically, via his modernist experiments like A Clockwork Orange and Nothing Like The Sun, to his late classics Mozart and the Wolfgang and A Dead Man in Deptford. This volume clarifies Burgess's seminal role as both late modernist and early postmodernist, and lucidly unveils the legacy of England's most mercurial novelist.

Abstract

Zypern lag aufgrund seiner geographischen Lage seit jeher im Schnittpunkt wirtschaftlicher und politischer Interessen. Gegenseitige Einflüsse formten die Insel und ihre Kulturen, deren materielle und schriftliche Hinterlassenschaft Thema des ersten Grazer Zypern- Workshops im Juni 2016 waren. Die Idee zum diesem Workshop ergab sich aus dem an der Universität Graz seit langem verankerten und nun auch breit gefächerten Zypern-Schwerpunkt. Ziel des Workshops war es, österreichische Forschungen zum antiken Zypern zu bündeln, sichtbar zu machen, den Dialog zu fördern und neue Forschungsansätze zu verfolgen. Die in diesem Band veröffentlichten Beiträge beschäftigen sich mit aus Athen importierter Keramik, mit zyprisch-geometrischer Keramik, mit den Kultnamen des Gottes Apollon und mit Skulpturen aus Kalkstein und Marmor. Die Beiträge reflektieren sowohl Ergebnisse langjähriger Forschungen als auch Ausblicke auf neu begonnene Forschungsprojekte.

Abstract

Mozart's greatest works were written in Vienna in the decade before his death (1781-1791). This biography focuses on Mozart's dual roles as a performer and composer and reveals how his compositional processes are affected by performance-related concerns. It traces consistencies and changes in Mozart's professional persona and his modus operandi and sheds light on other prominent musicians, audience expectations, publishing, and concert and dramatic practices and traditions. Giving particular prominence to primary sources, Simon P. Keefe offers new biographical and critical perspectives on the man and his music, highlighting his extraordinary ability to engage with the competing demands of singers and instrumentalists, publishing and public performance, and concerts and dramatic productions in the course of a hectic, diverse and financially uncertain freelance career. This comprehensive and accessible volume is essential for Mozart lovers and scholars alike, exploring his Viennese masterpieces and the people and environments that shaped them.

Abstract

Nach wie vor entzündet sich an Mozart die Frage nach der Transparenz des Genialen. Wie kein anderer schöpferischer Geist hat Mozart die Literatur- und Kulturgeschichte, die Texte von Schriftstellern, aber auch von Philosophen, Theologen und Soziologen gerade durch die Unerklärbarkeit seiner magischen Wirkung gefesselt und herausgefordert. Gegenstand der Überlegungen war dabei stets auch die Frage, wie Kreativität und Biographie zusammenhängen. In Längs- und Querschnitten beleuchtet der vorliegende Band aus der Sicht unterschiedlicher Disziplinen das einmalige Phänomen einer aus Faszination, Sprachkraft und Unerklärbarkeit gemischten Wirkungsgeschichte, die bis in die unmittelbare Gegenwart reicht.

Abstract

How is music implicated in the politics of belonging? Provocatively fusing recent European philosophy with music theory, this book explores the instrumental music of Haydn, Mozart and Beethoven, reveals connections between listening and constructions of community and testifies to Classical music's enduring political significance in an age of neoliberal exclusion.
