Barthes: A Very Short Introduction (Very Short Introductions)

2002 y.
Publisher: Oxford University Press
Description: This acclaimed short study, originally published in 1983, and now thoroughly updated, elucidates the varied theoretical contributions of Roland Barthes (1915-80), the `incomparable enlivener of the literary mind` whose lifelong fascination was with the way people make their world intelligible. He has a multi-faceted claim to fame: to some he is the structuralist who outlined a `science of literature`, and the most prominent promoter of semiology, to others he stands not for science but pleasure, espousing a theory of literature which gives the reader a creative role. This book describes the many projects, which Barthes explored and which helped to change the way we think about a range of cultural phenomena - from literature, fashion, wrestling, and advertising to notions of the self, of history, and of nature.

Enrique Vila-Matas, Jonathan Dunne
Bartleby &, Co.

2004 y.
Publisher: —
Description: A marvelous novel by one of Spain`s most important contemporary authors, in which a clerk in a Barcelona office takes us on a romping tour of world literature. In Bartleby &, Co. , an enormously enjoyable novel, Enrique Vila-Matas tackles the theme of silence in literature: the writers and non-writers who, like the scrivener Bartleby of the Herman Melville story, in answer to any question or demand, replies: `I would prefer not to.` Addressing such `artists of refusal` as Robert Walser, Robert Musil, Arthur Rimbaud, Marcel Duchamp, Herman Melville, and J. D. Salinger, Bartleby &, Co. could be described as a meditation: a walking tour through the annals of literature. Written as a series of footnotes (a non-work itself), Bartleby embarks on such questions as why do we write, why do we exist? The answer lies in the novel itself: told from the point of view of a hermetic hunchback who has no luck with women, and is himself unable to write, Bartleby is… [detailed...]

Herman Melville
Bartleby and Benito Cereno

1990 y.
Publisher: Dover Publications
Description: Herman Melville towers among American writers not only for his powerful novels, but also for the stirring novellas and short stories that flowed from his pen. Two of the most admired of these - `Bartleby` and `Benito Cereno` - first appeared as magazine pieces and were then published in 1856 as part of a collection of short stories entitled `The Piazza Tales`. `Bartleby` (also known as `Bartleby the Scrivener`) is an intriguing moral allegory set in the business world of mid-19th-century New York. A strange, enigmatic man employed as a clerk in a legal office, Bartleby forces his employer to come to grips with the most basic questions of human responsibility, and haunts the latter`s conscience, even after Bartleby`s dismissal. `Benito Cereno`, considered one of Melville`s best short stories, deals with a bloody slave revolt on a Spanish vessel. A splendid parable of man`s struggle against the forces of evil, the carefully developed and mysteriously guarded plot… [detailed...]

Julie Brown
Bartok and the Grotesque

2007 y.
Publisher: Ashgate Publishing
Description: The grotesque is one of art`s most puzzling figures - transgressive, comprising an unresolvable hybrid, generally focussing on the human body, full of hyperbole, and ultimately semantically deeply puzzling. In `Bluebeard`s Castle` (1911), `The Wooden Prince` (1916/17), `The Miraculous Mandarin` (1919/24, rev. 1931) and `Cantata Profana` (1930), Bartok engaged scenarios featuring either overtly grotesque bodies or closely related transformations and violations of the body. In a number of instrumental works he also overtly engaged grotesque satirical strategies, sometimes - as in `Two Portraits`: `Ideal` and `Grotesque` - indicating this in the title.In this book, Julie Brown argues that Bartok`s concerns with stylistic hybridity (high-low, East-West, tonalatonal-modal), the body, and the grotesque are inter-connected. While Bartok developed each interest in highly individual ways, and did so separately to a considerable extent, the three concerns remained conceptually interlinked. All… [detailed...]

Bas Jan Ader: In Search of the Miraculous (One Work)

2006 y.
Publisher: —
Description: In 1975 Bas Jan Ader disappeared at sea while trying to sail from the East Coast of the United States to Europe as part of a project titled In Search of the Miraculous . Ader`s considerable influence on later conceptual artists stems from the way in which he used the cool analytic and antisubjective aesthetics of conceptual art to explore experiences that would seem definitively subjective--the emotional intensity of tragedy and the romantic quest for the sublime. In Search of the Miraculous was conceived as a three-part project: a lonely nighttime walk from the hills of Los Angeles down to the sea, documented in photographs, the Atlantic crossing, a night walk through Amsterdam, mirroring the LA photographs. The circumstances of his disappearance have led many interpreters to identify Ader (as a person) with the role of the tragic romantic hero. The cult status of the artist as a hero whose work is authenticated through his death, however, has obscured the… [detailed...]

You will find derivatives from Philips, Dallas, Analog Devices and Cygnal and others with the known 8051 core but enhanced clock and peripherals. For example, complete analog-to-digital and digital-to-analog subsystems were integrated in some chips. Atmel developed the AVR microcontroller family which is well suited for high-level language programming and in-system programming. For all those microcontrollers there is development software ranging from simple assemblers for DOS to integrated development environments for Windows95/98/NT on the market. Apart from programming environments for professional applications, also the more economical and nonetheless sufficiently equipped development environments can maintain ground. BASCOM-8051 and BASCOM-AVR are development environments built around a powerful… [detailed...]
