    Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the fascinating world of the Ancient Arabic Order of the Nobles of the Mystic Shrine, tracing its origins to the early days of Islam in Mecca and exploring its spread throughout the Middle East, Europe, and ultimately, America. The author meticulously reconstructs the Order's history, offering insights into its secretive rituals and profound philosophical underpinnings. While often perceived as a fraternal organization, the book reveals its multifaceted nature, highlighting its role as a politico-religious society that sought to influence the course of history. The reader is introduced to key figures in the Order's evolution, including notable scholars and even historical figures like Abd-el Kader, a renowned leader who was also a member of the Shrine. The book explores the symbolism of the Order's emblems, such as the crescent, and explores how these symbols resonated across cultures and time periods. The author also examines the Order's relationship with Freemasonry and its broader impact on social and political movements throughout history. The book offers a unique and compelling perspective on a largely unknown aspect of global history, challenging readers to reconsider the influence of secret societies and the enduring power of ancient traditions. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.…

    Soft cover. Condizione: Very Good. 2011 Rodopi paperback edition. Light reading wear else very good condition. From the cover: The main section of this volume of essays addresses the topic of 'Performativity in Literature and Music', a subject of high contemporary relevance since a substantial part of recent reflections in the humanities are concerned with the performance aspect of cultural activities, particularly in the arts. This decisive reorientation of scholarly interests in the arts, trendily called the 'performative turn', has yielded significant contributions to an increasingly refined understanding of artistic processes from an up-to-date perspective, and specifically what has been called the 'crisis of the work concept' has sharpened our awareness of the need of finding the 'proper' object of such scholarly investigations, which, as in most traditional studies, cannot be exclusively the written documents of our cultural heritage, but additionally, and essentially so, their actualizations in performance situations. This volume for the first time offers a set of careful case studies from a wide range of artistic genres (narrative fiction, poetry, opera, instrumental music, songs, jazz) and historical phases (from Elizabethan verse to 21st-century HD opera performances) which give detailed insight into consequences of addressing issues of performativity in the field of word and music studies. Closely examined examples range, in music, from the romantic reception of Bach and the opera singer Maria Malibran through Mahler and Schoenberg to Brigitte Fassbaender, Philip Glass and Charles Mingus, and, in literature, from Sidney through Yeats and Celan to Katherine Mansfield, Alejo Carpentier and Toni Morrison. In addition, the volume contains a smaller section on 'Surveying the Field' of word and music studies which includes an essay of general reflection on interart relationships and an attempt at identifying new features of the 'musicalization of fiction'. This collection of essays will be relevant to students and scholars from a wide variety of fields: performance studies, intermediality studies, art theory, musicology, voice studies, literary criticism, and philosophy.
