Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'In this deeply felt and well-researched meditation, Kalkavage finds the special bond that exists between the world and the power of music.' --Booklist'Many people write about the meaning of music, but few can do it as well as Peter Kalkavage does in this marvelous, winsome, and often hauntingly beautiful book. He takes us on a deep dive into the philosophical dimensions of music, through a series of connected essays that demonstrate again and again the ways in which music is intimately connected to the most important questions we wrestle with, about the nature of time, space, and the human condition. It is a book of great learning, but one also brimming over with enthusiasm and love for its subject, a combination that readers will find irresistible.'--Dr. Wilfred M. McClay, Professor of History, Hillsdale CollegeMusic and the Idea of a World exploresthe bond between music and world by reflecting on great musical compositionsand works by great thinkers from antiquity to the present. World, here, hasseveral meanings. It is the natural world or cosmos, the inner world of feelingand thought, world history, and the world of tones (the musical universe). Thebook is intended for philosophic-minded readers who are fascinated by music andmusic lovers who enjoy thinking about the philosophic questions that musicraises. The seven-chapter journey begins with a contrastbetween the cosmologies of Plato and Schopenhauer (followed by a discussion of Palestrina'smusic and the world of the Bible). It then proceeds to chapters on music and naturein Victor Zuckerkandl's Sound and Symbol, a love song from Bach's St.Matthew Passion, a love song from Mozart's Magic Flute, Wagner's Tristanand Isolde in relation to Schopenhauer's cosmology of the will, twelve-tonemusic as the image of totalitarianism in Thomas Mann's Doctor Faustus, and the world of the inner life in Francis Poulenc's Dialogues of the Carmelites.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Peter Kalkavage's The Logic of Desire guides the reader through Hegel's great work. Given the book's legendary difficulty, one may well ask, 'Why even try to read the Phenomenology ' In his preface, Kalkavage explains why he thinks a reader should try:There is much to commend the study of Hegel: his attentiveness to the deepest, most fundamental questions of philosophy, his uncompromising pursuit of truth, his amazing gift for characterization and critique, his appreciation for the grand sweep of things and the large view, his profound admiration for all that is heroic, especially for the ancient Greeks, those heroes of thought in whom the philosophic spirit first dawned, his penetrating gaze into modernity in all its forms, his enormous breadth of interests, and his audacious claim to have captured absolute knowing in a thoroughly rational account.According to Kalkavage, the Phenomenology belongs to a quartet of the greatest works on education. The other three members of the quartet are Plato's Republic, Dante's Divine Comedy, and Rousseau's Emile. No genuine philosophic education can omit a serious encounter with this giant of the modern age, the giant who absorbed all the worlds of spiritual vitality that came before him and tried to organize them into a coherent whole.'This book comes as close as I have seen to a guide to Hegel for the 'courageous non-specialist,' to employ Mr. Kalkavage's expression. He writes from what is obviously a lengthy and deep study of Hegel and of the Phenomenology in particular. There is no patronising of Hegel's complex teaching. The technical terminology is not avoided or concealed by the jovial jargon of a study manual. Kalkavage has mastered the art of presenting topics of great difficulty in a way that will instruct specialists as well as non-specialists. I found especially illuminating his portrait of determinate negation and the difference between consciousness and the phenomenolgical observer. This book should be in every college and university library.'-Stanley Rosen'Having taught philosophy to undergraduates for the past thirty-nine years, I can especially appreciate the value of Peter Kalkavage's book,The Logic of Desire. This work will truly benefit anyone who wishes to learn what Hegel himself is teaching in his first major volume. It provides remarkable insights on Hegel's complex work as a whole as well as serving as a sure guide for every chapter and for virtually every paragraph. Even the many endnotes are very valuable. It should be made readily available to every undergraduate who has to read any part of the Phenomenology.'-Dr. Donald C. Lindenmuth, Pennsylvania State UniversityPeter Kalkavage is a member of the senior faculty at St. John's College in Annapolis, Maryland, where he has taught for thirty years.
