The prequel to the critically acclaimed and award-winning This is Memorial Device

Industry of Magic &amp; Light is a love letter to the counterculture of the 1960s and a requiem for its passing. The much-anticipated prequel to Keenan's cult classic debut, This is Memorial Device, Industry of Magic &amp; Light is set in the same mythical Airdrie in the 1960s and early 70s and centres on a group of hippies running their own psychedelic light show. Told in two halves - the first in the form of an inventory of the contents of a caravan abandoned by one of the hippies, the second in the form of a tarot card reading - it is not so much a book about the 1960s as a direct channelling of the decade's energies, bringing to life how even the smallest and dreariest of working class towns felt so full of possibility in the wake of the psychedelic moment. Via artefacts from the time - everything from poetry chapbooks, record reviews and musical instruments through bubblegum wrappers, bicycle repair kits and mysterious cassette recordings - the book opens out into adventures along the hippy trail in Afghanistan and behind the Iron Curtain that leads a cast of new and returning characters - as well as the authorities - to believe that they are literally making magic. Simultaneously a forensics of the 1960s, a detective novel, an occult thriller, a vision quest, and the hallucinatory exposition of a moment where it felt like anything was possible, Industry of Magic &amp; Life brings to life the streets of small working class towns as transformational sites of utopian joy.

Eine Einführung

Minnesang

Nadine Shah. Singer, songwriter, musician, activist, mixed-race, thirtysomething, successful, outspoken. That's the tagline, at least... As a professional musician, I decided long ago what truly defines success. Everything else it just a bonus. Famous enough to be scrutinised in the supermarket, but not famous enough to enjoy the perks that come with 'celebrity', I don't know any other life.From my various accolades and media presence, it might seem like I've it made it, but really I just try my best to do what I do best. I imagine that much of my story is yours, too, even if you're not a musician. I know you sometimes feel just as inadequate as I do scrolling through Instagram, viewing 'better' depictions of ourselves. But none of it is real. To me, what makes a good lyricist is the ability to speak for everyone and to everyone. I don't claim to be unique; I don't have any answers to the big questions. But I am willing to share my thoughts on the world with anyone who is willing to listen. This book is a collection of musings on what makes me jump out of bed and what makes me hide under the covers. Sometimes we need to read other people's stories in order to process our own. In this memoir, I will hang out my dirty laundry for all to see in the hope that perhaps you'll find the confidence to do the same. This is not your regular rock-star tale of debauchery; it's just my everyday life ­- the rank and the glamorous, the mundane and the ridiculous, the demons and the angels. My version of events.

Cold War History

This book is an historical investigation into the role of the European Community in the overcoming of the East-West divide during the Cold War.

This book is an historical investigation into the role of the European Community in the overcoming of the East-West divide during the Cold War. Making use of recently released primary sources from a broad range of European and U.S. archives, the work reveals the ability of the EC and its member states to shape, implement and further develop a coordinated Eastern policy and play a significant transformative role in the Continent. It demonstrates that the EC polity successfully managed to challenge Soviet bloc-keeping imperatives, resist the US call for a confrontational stance towards the Communist world, and promote instead new intra-European relations based on cooperation and interdependence. The book argues that the EC Ostpolitik contributed to undermining the socialist integration, offered an alternative path of relations to Eastern European countries, and established the influential role of the Community in the continent, laying the ground on which to build post-Cold War Europe.This book is a thorough addition to both Cold War and European integration historiographies, and sheds new light on the interrelation between the two. It also adds to the broader history and understanding of contemporary Europe in that it reveals a pro-active role of the EC towards the East since the early 1970s, whereas historians and political scientists generally admit an effective role of the European institutions only in the post-communist era. The book actively engages with Cold War historiographical debates on détente and its alleged crisis, the end of the Cold War, and the role of actors other than the superpowers in shaping East-West relations. The EC is now recognised as having played a determinant role in the Helsinki Conference on Security and Cooperation in Europe (CSCE) and the elaboration of its Final Act. The volume demonstrates that the EC was an important actor in the Cold War beyond the time and scope of the Helsinki Conference, and actively and effectively contributed to the overcoming of the bloc order in Europe.This book will be of much interest to students of Cold War Studies, European political history, foreign policy and international relations.

The European Community and Eastern Europe in the Long 1970s

From the Samuel Johnson Prize shortlisted author, a powerful literary memoir about life in rural Nairobi, one of the last true wildernesses of the world. Aidan Hartley grew up in Kenya, moving from farm to farm across Africa with his family. As an adult he moved to England to study, then became a war correspondent in Africa, and then, when he couldn't resist it any longer, a farmer in his own right. Aidan's farm today sits in view of the Kenyan Mountain. His work is dosing sheep, dipping cattle, fixing machinery, responding to the night alarms of rustlers entering the valley on elephant raids. Living here, injury means relying on a manual called Where There is No Doctor, and the home medicine chest complete with blood coagulants for gunshot wounds. Laikipia is a beautiful, wild place. Sometimes peaceful, and sometimes dangerous. It is also a landscape tragically at risk. Across the course of Aidan's life, the nature around him has changed. The wild hunting dog, cheetah, rhinos, elephants - even the giraffe and lion - face oblivion. Whole forests have been torn down. Kenya Mountain on the horizon is losing its tropical icefields - they will be gone in a handful of years. Paradise of Thorns is a restlessly inventive literary memoir: the story of Aidan's departure from cities and the irresistible move back to his real home. It is part glorious testament to the extraordinary heart of rural Africa as a place which is fast becoming lost; part antidote to the false impressions imposed on the country over the years; and part adventure story of drug trade, cattle raids, gunfights, tragic losses, ambushes, posses and battles.

Paradise of Thorns

Despite the well-known fact that some pieces of Bach's WTC II existed in early forms, there has been no thorough discussion to date as to how the work evolved over the years. Based on an in-depth study of source materials, this book discusses how these sources were produced and how we can use them to evaluate more firmly the origin of the pieces. Tomita and Rastall reveal that the early version of WTCII appear in two distinct phases, reflecting various factors that surrounded the composer's life.

Despite the well-known fact that some pieces of Bach's WTC II existed in early forms, there has been no thorough discussion to date as to how the work evolved over the years. Based on an in-depth study of source materials, this book discusses how these sources were produced and how we can use them to evaluate more firmly the origin of the pieces. Tomita and Rastall reveal that the early versions of WTCII appear in two distinct phases, reflecting various factors that surrounded the composer's life.  Through a close examination of the most famous Bach manuscript in Britain, the 'London Autograph', the authors gather evidence which enables them to reconstruct Bach's working strategy, as well as the stages of revision of the manuscript and how the work is left 'incomplete'. Many attempts were made by later generations to present WTCII as a finished product, but their limited knowledge of both the composer's style of compositions and the primary sources of the work made this an impossible task. Nevertheless, the close examination here of their attempts reveal fascinating aspects of their idealised views of Bach and his work, which in turn reflect the changing tide of the history of Western music.
