The rise of cosmic music; Conclusion: Where is it all going?; Notes; Bibliography; Index -- "Several commentators, among them Theodore Roszak and Joseph Chilton Pearce, have suggested that the current wave of interest in exotic religions, cults and beliefs reflects our need to re-affirm our position in a world from which we have begun to feel alienated. Nevill Drury,who has written widely on magic and the occult, discusses the nature of contemporary magical thought - encompassing the Tarot and the Qabalah - and considers its impact on the creative imagination. He presents a fusion of the creative, magical and mythological undercurrents which are part of the 'new consciousness', and traces the influence of surrealist art and the expansive psychedelic period on the art and music of the 1970s. He looks, for example,at the relationship of the fantasy art on record sleeves to the electronic inner-space music which it often accompanies, and shows that this form of modern music represents one facet of the contemporary reaction against scientism and of the search for what Roszak has termed the visionary sources of our culture. Nevill Drury concludes that a major mythological impulse is emerging in our culture and that magical and surreal approaches represent a profoundly invigorating and inspiring attitude linking the individual to the cosmos. The book is illustrated by examples of the work of Ernst, Dali and Magritte, as well as Roger Dean, Mati Klarwein, Wilfred Satty and others.". Codice articolo 005641
