Felix Mayerhofer
Diary of a Young Musician: Final Days of the Big Band Era

2005 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionIn Diary of a Young Musician, 1948-1962, Felix Mayerhofer, from Port Chester, N.Y., grew up fast when he went from Juilliard School of Music in New York City as an innocent teenager to the professional `dog eat dog` world of big bands. It was there he encountered drugs, drinking, and women while traveling on the road. After a couple of years in an air force band during the Korean War (an activated air national guard unit), it was back on the road with more jazz groups, then finally working the showrooms of Las Vegas, Lake Tahoe and Reno. Felix married Shirley Wagner (Wagonseller), a beautiful dancer at Harrah?s Club in Lake Tahoe where his life began to return to normal. During the previous 14-year period, he managed to receive a degree in music education, where a part of his time at college had the semblance of a scene from a Dostoyevsky novel. His long tour in the South before the 1950?s was an eye opener for a young boy: problems with a sheriff… [detailed...]

Diary

2003 y.
Publisher: Anchor
Description: Misty Wilmot has had it. Once a promising young artist, she`s now stuck on an island ruined by tourism, drinking too much and working as a waitress in a hotel. Her husband, a contractor, is in a coma after a suicide attempt, but that doesn`t stop his clients from threatening Misty with lawsuits over a series of vile messages they`ve found on the walls of houses he remodeled. Suddenly, though, Misty finds her artistic talent returning as she begins a period of compulsive painting. Inspired but confused by this burst of creativity, she soon finds herself a pawn in a larger conspiracy that threatens to cost hundreds of lives. What unfolds is a dark, hilarious story from America`s most inventive nihilist, and Palahniuk`s most impressive work to date. [detailed...]

Diary

2004 y.
Publisher: Vintage
Description: `Diary` takes the form of a `coma diary` kept by one Misty Wilmot as her husband lies senseless in hospital after a suicide attempt. Once, she was an art student dreaming of creativity and freedom, now, after marrying Peter at art school and being brought back to once quaint, now tourist-overrun Waytansea Island, she`s been reduced to the condition of a resort hotel maid. Peter, it turns out, has been hiding rooms in house he`s refurbished and scrawling vile messages all over the walls - an old habit of builders but gone nuts on his part. Angry homeowners are sueing left and right, and Misty`s dreams of artistic greatness are in ashes. But then, as if possessed by the spirit of Maura Kinkaid, a fabled Waytansea artist of the nineteenth century, Misty begins painting again, compulsively. The canvases are taken away by her mother-in-law and her doctor, who seem to have a plan for Misty - and for all those annoying tourists… [detailed...]

Their methods, ranging from scientific documentation to complex video dramatizations, focus especially on issues associated with identity and the tension between group and individual mechanisms. The direct involvement of the public in their work process is crucial. This catalogue contains a retrospective of their works to date, including Voracidad maxima , their joint project for the Museu d`Art Contemporani de Barcelona.

Paul Christopher Johnson
Diaspora Conversions: Black Carib Religion and the Recovery of Africa

2007 y.
Publisher: University of California Press
Description: By joining a diaspora, a society may begin to change its religious, ethnic, and even racial identifications by rethinking its `pasts.` This pioneering multisite ethnography explores how this phenomenon is affecting the remarkable religion of the Garifuna, historically known as the Black Caribs, from the Central American coast of the Caribbean. It is estimated that one-third of the Garifuna have migrated to New York City over the past fifty years. Paul Christopher Johnson compares Garifuna spirit possession rituals performed in Honduran villages with those conducted in New York, and what emerges is a compelling picture of how the Garifuna engage ancestral spirits across multiple diasporic horizons. His study sheds new light on the ways diasporic religions around the world creatively plot itineraries of spatial memory that at once recover and remold their histories. [detailed...]

Erich S. Gruen
Diaspora: Jews amidst Greeks and Romans

2004 y.
Publisher: —
Description: What was life like for Jews settled throughout the Mediterranean world of Classical antiquity--and what place did Jewish communities have in the diverse civilization dominated by Greeks and Romans? In a probing account of the Jewish diaspora in the four centuries from Alexander the Great`s conquest of the Near East to the Roman destruction of the Jewish Temple in 70 C.E. , Erich Gruen reaches often surprising conclusions. By the first century of our era, Jews living abroad far outnumbered those living in Palestine and had done so for generations. Substantial Jewish communities were found throughout the Greek mainland and Aegean islands, Asia Minor, the Tigris-Euphrates valley, Egypt, and Italy. Focusing especially on Alexandria, Greek cities in Asia Minor, and Rome, Gruen explores the lives of these Jews: the obstacles they encountered, the institutions they established, and their strategies for adjustment. He also delves into Jewish… [detailed...]
