The Bakhtin Circle : In the Master`s Absence

2004 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book Description The Russian philosopher and cultural theorist Mikhail Bakhtin has traditionally been seen as the leading figure in the group of intellectuals known as the Bakhtin Circle. The writings of other members of the Circle are considered much less important than his work, while Bakhtin`s achievement has been exaggerated in proportion to the downgrading of the thinkers with whom he associated in the 1920s. This volume, which includes new translations and studies of the work of the most important members of the Circle, sets out to correct the distortions in the established representations of its activity. The original contributions to literary and linguistic theory made by Valentin Voloshinov and Pavel Medvedev (but frequently credited to Bakhtin) are assessed, and the distinctiveness of their approaches is highlighted.

They happen when the key elements of any system--a business, a family, a relationship--come into balance, and then function in a state of synergy where the whole becomes much more than the sum of… [detailed...]

He`d rather be a minstrel, playing his rebec and writing ballads. But he was born to be a knight, and knights, of course, have adventures. So after his father forces his knighthood upon him, he wanders toward King Arthur`s court, in the company of a misguided young Welsh lad named Culloch. There Dinadan meets Sir Kai and Sir Bedivere, and the three find themselves accompanying Culloch on the worst sort of quest. Along the way, Dinadan writes his own ballads, singing of honor, bravery, loyalty, and courtly love—and becomes a player in the pathetic love story of Tristram and Iseult. He meets the Moorish knight Palomides, the clever but often exasperating Lady Brangienne, and an elvin musician named Sylvanus, along with an unusual collection of recreant knights and dimwitted defenders of chivalry. He learns that while minstrels sing of… [detailed...]

The Ballad of a Thin Man: In Search of Ryan Larkin

2008 y.
Publisher: —
Description: In 1962, at the age of 19 and with no animation experience, Ryan Larkin got a job at the National Film Board of Canada. In the space of five years, he made three acclaimed short films, including the Academy Award®- nominated Walking, one of the most influential animated films of all time. Yet, what started as an extraordinarily promising career quickly unraveled and, when the author finds Larkin thirty years later, he?s living on welfare and panhandling for change on a Montreal street corner. In Ballad of a Thin Man, acclaimed animation writer Chris Robinson explores Larkin?s life, work and times, examining both his remarkable gifts as an animator and the self-destructive impulses that led to his precipitous decline. At the same time, in a kind of dual biography, Robinson looks at his own life?his troubled family history, his alcoholism and search for redemption?which in many ways mirrors the story of the troubled animator. At once sad, hopeful, and at times excruciatingly funny,… [detailed...]
