Описание: This third volume of The Letters of Samuel Beckett focuses on the years when Beckett is striving to find a balance between the demands put upon him by his growing international fame, and his need for the peace and silence from which new writing might emerge. This is the period in which Beckett launches into work for radio, film and, later, into television. It also marks his return to writing fiction, with his first major piece for a decade, Comment c'est (How It Is). Where hitherto he has been reticent about the writing process, now he devotes letter after letter to describing and explaining his work in progress. For the first time Beckett has a woman as his major correspondent: a relationship shown in his intense and abundant letters to Barbara Bray. The volume also provides critical introductions, chronologies, explanatory notes and profiles of Beckett's main correspondents.

Описание: Samuel Beckett`s work is deeply concerned with physical contact - remembered, half-remembered, or imagined. Applying the philosophical writings of Jean-Luc Nancy and Maurice Merleau-Ponty that feature sensation, this study examines how Beckett`s later work dramatizes moments of contact between self and self, self and world, and self and other.

Описание: From the Tin Pan Alley 32-bar form, through the cyclical forms of modal jazz, to the more recent accumulation of digital layers, beats, and breaks in Electronic Dance Music, repetition as both an aesthetic disposition and a formal property has stimulated a diverse range of genres and techniques. From the angles of musicology, psychology, sociology, and science and technology, Over and Over reassesses the complexity connected to notions of repetition in a variety of musical genres. The first edited volume on repetition in 20th- and 21st-century popular music, Over and Over explores the wide-ranging forms and use of repetition — from large repetitive structures to micro repetitions — in relation to both specific and large-scale issues and contexts. The book brings together a selection of original texts by leading authors in a field that is, as yet, little explored. Aimed at both specialists and neophytes, it sheds important new light on one of the fundamental phenomena of music of our times.

Описание: Ce livre analyse les rapports existants entre les notions d'abject et de sublime - que tout semble opposer et que la critique interroge nouveau depuis quelques ann es, mais de mani re s par e - pour penser la crise de la repr sentation survenue au vingti me si cle. Inaugur e par la d claration h g lienne de la mort de l'esth tique en 1835 et ent rin e par la guerre et l'exp rience des camps invalidant, selon Adorno, les possibilit s de l'art, cette crise invite s'interroger sur les deux extr mes de la repr sentation que sont l'abject et le sublime. C'est ce que font, chacune leur mani re, les oeuvres de Georges Bataille, Jean Genet et Samuel Beckett. Dans leurs textes de th orie et de fiction, l'abject et le sublime occupent une place centrale, en tant que th matique, esth tique et po tique. Les deux notions y sont, dans chaque cas, indissociables. Ce livre montre que cette indissociabilit est caract ristique de la mutation esth tique advenue au si cle dernier. Par l' tude de trois oeuvres majeures r v latrices de cette mutation, il r v le la n cessit actuelle de penser l'abject et le sublime conjointement, tout en offrant une nouvelle lecture des textes consid r s.

Описание: amuel Beckett once wrote that were he in the ‘unfortunate position' of a critic studying his work, one of his points of departure would be the ideas of the 17th-century philosopher, Arnold Geulincx. Samuel Beckett and Arnold Geulincx: Tracing ‘a literary fantasia' is the first full-length study to document the extent of the influence Geulincx's philosophy had on Beckett's prose and late drama. Establishing itself as a reference point for Beckett's published and unpublished writings, David Tucker's study presents a clear, chronological exploration of Beckett's engagement with Geulincx, and of how this engagement marks, and is marked by, broader changes in Beckett's aesthetic thinking. By positioning close, interpretative philosophical readings alongside analyses of archival materials, Tucker sets out an affirmative and reconciliatory approach to divergent strands in contemporary Beckett Studies.

Описание: Confinement appears repeatedly in Samuel Beckett's oeuvre - from the asylums central to Murphy and Watt to the images of confinement that shape plays such as Waiting for Godot and Endgame. Drawing on spatial theory and new archival research, Beckett in Confinement explores these recurring concepts of closed space to cast new light on the ethical and political dimensions of Beckett's work. Covering the full range of Beckett's writing career, including two plays he completed for prisoners, Catastrophe and the unpublished 'Mongrel Mime', the book shows how this engagement with the ethics of representing prisons and asylums stands at the heart of Beckett's poetics.
