<P>In this brilliant collection, path-breaking figures of American experimental music discuss the meaning of their work at the turn of the twenty-first century. Presented between 1989 and 2002 at Wesleyan University, these captivating lectures provide rare insights by composers whose work has shaped our understanding of what it means to be experimental: Maryanne Amacher, Robert Ashley, Philip Glass, Meredith Monk, Steve Reich, James Tenney, Christian Wolff, and La Monte Young. Collected here for the first time, together these lectures tell the story of twentieth-century American experimental music, covering such topics as repetition, phase, drone, duration, collaboration, and technological innovation. Containing introductory comments by Lucier and the original question and answer sessions between the students and the composers, this book makes the theory and practice of experimental music available and accessible to a new generation of students, artists, and scholars.</P>

On Joanna Russ
<P>Joanna Russ, a feminist writer best known for The Female Man (1975), has produced a fierce, intense body of fiction and essays whose influence has been wide-ranging and complex. Her many publications include How to Suppress Women's Writing (1983), and she has won both of science fiction's most prestigious awards, the Nebula and the Hugo. The essays in this volume examine every aspect of Russ's body of work and provide a critical assessment that is long overdue. The first part of the book, «Criticism and Community,» gives readers a context for and overview of Russ's works, and includes discussions of Russ's role in the creation of a feminist science fiction tradition. The second part, «Fiction,» offers detailed analyses of some of Russ's writing. </P><P>Contributors include: Andrew M. Butler, Brian Charles Clark, Samuel R.

Von Gott berührt
"Ich bin Gott begegnet – und war danach nicht mehr derselbe!" Es sind keine außergewöhnlichen Typen, die so etwas sagen, sondern ganz normale Menschen.

Geschichten, die herausfordern, die zu Tränen rühren, die Hoffnung geben für das eigene Leben.
