"Premier véritable "impressionniste musical" français, Emmanuel Chabrier (1841-1894) fut trop - longtemps classé comme autodidacte à tord. Il est pourtant vrai que son univers musical, si personnel, préfigurait déjà Satie et la nouvelle école française, dès ses malicieuses opérettes (L'Etoile, Une éducation manquée), son opéra-comique (Le Roi malgré lui) ou ses deux opéras (Gwendoline et l'inachevé Briséis). Soutenu par son fidèle ami Lamoureux qui créa plusieurs de ses œuvres orchestrale (dont la désormais célèbre rhapsodie España ou encore sa Joyeuse marche), Chabrier se révéla un pianiste recherché, laissant de nombreuses pièces étonnantes pour 2 et 4 mains au clavier, autant qu'un véritable amateur des arts, ami - et aussi collectionneur - des peintres impressionnistes et autres artistes montmartrois. Cette biographie sur celui qui influença des générations de compositeurs (notamment Debussy, Ravel et Poulenc) se complète de nombreuses illustrations et exemples musicaux, dans une édition révisée et augmentée."--Page 4 of cover.

"Erotic Resistance is an act of memory preservation regarding San Francisco's foundational role in the erotic entertainment and sex industries of the United States. It highlights the contributions of women of color, queer women, and trans women who were instrumental at key moments in the city's history concerning labor as well as the LGBT and sex workers' rights movements. In the 1960s, topless entertainment became legal in San Francisco for the first time in US history, although cross-dressing continued to be criminalized. In yet another first instance in US history, San Francisco activist-strippers, who were also artists, led successful class action lawsuits and efforts to unionize in the strip club industry in the 1990s. Using diverse methods, including ethnography, visual and performance analysis, and historiography, Erotic Resistance relates these phenomena through archival materials, artworks, and original interviews with women who performed in San Francisco's burlesque scene and strip club industry during these time periods"-- Provided by publisher.

"This volume presents new research on the use of experimental methodologies in moral and social philosophy. The contributions reflect the growing plurality of methodologies and strategies for implementing experimental work on morality to new domains, problems, and topics. Philosophers are exploring the ways in which empirical approaches can transform our idea of the good, our understanding of the social nature of norms and morality, as well as our methods of fulfilling ethical goals. The chapters in this volume extend experimental work on morality to previously underexplored areas. The contributions in Part 1 explore the methods and foundations of experimental work in areas such as folk moral judgments, metaethical beliefs, moral explanations, and reflective equilibrium. Part 2 focuses on issues in normative ethics, legal, and political philosophy such as virtue ethics, utilitarianism, theories of justice, and criminal responsibility. Finally, the chapters in Part 3 tackle various applied ethical issues including feminist X-Phi, animal welfare, experimental bioethics, and self-driving cars. Experiments in Moral and Political Philosophy will be of interest to scholars and advanced students working in ethics, applied ethics, experimental philosophy, social and political philosophy, and philosophy of law"-- Provided by publisher.

"Combining personal narrative, interviews, and literary analysis, Fool elaborates the potential for fool figures from throughout literary history to reconfigure subject-object relations and point toward new possibilities in creative and critical thought. Drawing on Johanna Skibsrud's experience in clown classes in France and the US, Fool challenges and extends the correlation Theodor Adorno suggests between thinking and clowning. It considers a diverse range of literary and theoretical sources from Richard Wagner's Parsifal to Karen Barad's Meeting the Universe Halfway. The book also refers to a varied cast of literary and historical clowns and fools, including the early Shakespearean actor Richard Tarlton, Alban Berg's Wozzeck, and Cirque du Soleil's Shannan Calcutt. Skibsrud elaborates the role of the 'fool' and 'foolishness' in literature not as an element of a particular work's content, plot, or style, but instead as a creative mode of thought activated through the reading and writing of literary texts. This innovative book charts new ground in literature, philosophy, and performance studies, and is an invaluable resource for specialists in all three fields"-- Provided by publisher.
