Book Description
Marking the fiftieth anniversary of the death of Aldous Huxley (1894–1963), Temporaries and Eternals focuses on the music column that Huxley wrote for The Weekly Westminster Gazette in 1922–23. Readers of Huxley’s novels, essays and travel writing will be aware of the wealth of musical detail in these works, and this book suggests that such references can only be fully understood in the context of the opinions voiced in Huxley’s music criticism. Not only does Huxley’s column offer a fascinating snapshot of musical life in 1920s Britain, but several of the themes that Huxley explores continue to have contemporary relevance. These include music and technology, the composer-performer relationship, the nature of the child prodigy, musical tradition and innovation, the suitability of opera libretti, and how to write about music effectively. However, Huxley’s central theme, reflected in the title of this book, is the problematic question of how to judge the significance and potential longevity of specific composers and their works, from Palestrina to Schoenberg. After an extended introduction placing Huxley’s music criticism in the context of his other writings, the book reproduces all 64 of Huxley’s weekly articles, with footnote commentary to help the reader appreciate his wide-ranging textual references.

The Routledge Companion to Music and Modern Literature
Author: Rachael Durkin
Publisher: Taylor & Francis
ISBN: 1000563359
Category : Music
Languages : en
Pages : 637
Book Description
Modern literature has always been obsessed by music. It cannot seem to think about itself without obsessing about music. And music has returned the favour. The Routledge Companion to Music and Modern Literature addresses this relationship as a significant contribution to the burgeoning field of word and music studies. The 37 chapters within consider the partnership through four lenses—the universal, opera and literature, musical and literary forms, and popular music and literature—and touch upon diverse and pertinent themes for our modern times, ranging from misogyny to queerness, racial inequality to the claimed universality of whiteness. This Companion therefore offers an essential resource for all who try to decode the musico-literary exchange.

The Doctrine of Eternal Life
Author: Pastor Kevin Kline
Publisher: Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.
ISBN: 164569660X
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 754
Book Description
The Doctrine of Eternal Life is a civil-minded study of Calvinism and Arminianism in the light of scripture. It answers many questions that have plagued both followers of John Calvin and Jacobus Arminius alike. Questions are answered as such: Does the Bible really teach that God chooses some people for heaven and some for hell? Can eternal life be lost? Why in 2 Timothy 2:10 was Paul willing to endure all things for the elect's sake so that they may obtain salvation, if the elect were already saved? Is eternal life given by God as a gift or as a payment for doing good works? Discover the doctrine that Calvin seemingly overlooked, which led to some lengthy and unnecessary teachings. Where did Arminius depart from a fundamental truth of scripture? What is the Bible definition of eternal life? Is the future written in stone? And of course, a simple, Bible-based explanation of the "TULIP" doctrine. Learn how a brilliant theologian with a single innocent assumption may arrive at an incorrect conclusion, while a lowly person with average intelligence using a superior method of study may arrive at the correct conclusion.
