Cloth with dust jacket. Condizione: Gut. V, 202 p. Aus der Bibliothek von Prof. Wolfgang Haase, langjährigem Herausgeber der ANRW und des International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT) / From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - Over the course of a monumental career, Claude Lévi-Strauss has interwoven artistic materials and themes into his seminal analyses of the "savage mind." In this work, the world's most famous anthropologist turns his attention entirely to the domain of aesthetics. In a series of brilliant but meticulous studies, the author ranges widely across the domains of painting, music, literature, and the plastic arts, his fertile mind opening more general, philosophical perspectives. Look, Listen, Read begins with an analysis of Nicolas Poussin's method of visual composition, and after drawing a surprising parallel with Marcel Proust, moves into a fascinating discussion, joined by Ingres and Delacroix among others, on the art of painting and its particular challenges. The next section of the book turns to music and music appreciation, taking its inspiration from an inquiry into certain chord modulations in Rameau's opera Castor et Pollux, which at the time of its composition were considered a musical breakthrough. The third section takes up a more general discussion on the nature of the "beautiful." The reference point here remains the French Enlightenment, and in particular Diderot's reflections on painting. The book then moves to consider the aesthetic controversies of this same period, but with regard to music, and in a fascinating series of chapters revives the work of the largely forgotten eighteenthcentury musicologist Michel-Paul-Guy de Chabanon and his surprisingly contemporary discussion of music's partial resemblance to language. This leads to a consideration of the relations of words to music in opera, where Lévi- Strauss reveals something of his own tastes in music while engaging in a critical review of a work by his recently deceased friend and colleague, Michel Leires. The relation between sounds and colors is considered next, largely through a breathtaking examination of a famous but diffi cult poem by Arthur Rimbaud. There follows a exchange of notes with André Breton, written some fifty years ago, on the nature of the work of art. In the book's concluding chapters, the author dons the more familiar mantle of the anthropologist, and by looking at the myths of the American Indians, he offers an analysis of their understanding of the place of art and of the artist in their own societies. Look, Listen, Read is a truly original work, far removed from the intellectual fads that mark contemporary discussions on aesthetics, as Lévi-Strauss advances into new territory even as he remains faithful to his structuralist inspiration. The book weaves a dense tissue of connections, correspondences, and principles, while at the same time remaining sensitive to the specificities of each of the beaux-arts. In a valedictory statement capping a lifetime's work, Lévi-Strauss has made a major new contribution to our understanding of the place of art in human life, the nature of its appeal, the source of its creativity, and its universality. / Contents Looking at Poussin Listening to Rameau Reading Diderot Speech and Music Sounds and Colors Regarding Objects Works Cited Index.
