Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - This collection of essays explore the beautiful city of Fuzhou and its history and literature. Based on several journeys to the southern Chinese city, the authors discuss literature and culture, religion and nature. Issues that are touched upon in these essays include the literature of its most famous son, Tang Xianzu and compare his work with that of William Shakespeare. Tang and Shakespeare both died in the same year, 1616, and the two playwrights serve as representatives of East and West, as well as the possibilities of bridging the gaps across the continents. Elsewhere, these essays describe visits to the Caoshan Temple, the cradle of the Caodong school of Zen Buddhism. Our travellers meet Master Yangli, the first female master of the temple, and hear her profound ideas about integrating with nature and the status of Buddhism in the modern world.

Hardback. Condition: New. An essay collection which examines Britten's juvenilia, influences such as Shostakovich and Verdi, his opera Owen Wingrave and a libretto written by Australian novelist Patrick White with the hope of a future collaboration.Benjamin Britten: New Perspectives on his Life and Work reveals the extent to which Britten scholarship is reaching outside the confines of Anglo-American criticism. The volume engages with juvenilia and other orchestral works from the 1920s and examines a broad range of influences on Britten, including the works of Shostakovich and Verdi, the poetry of Ovid, and the cinema. Among his operatic works the dramatic qualities of Owen Wingrave arediscussed through a close study of Piper's libretto and we witness the genesis of a libretto written by Australian novelist Patrick White and submitted to Britten with the hope of a future collaboration. The volume uncovers the generally hostile reception Britten's operas received in Paris until around the 1990s. Britten's status as 'outsider' in both the USA and in his own country when he returned in 1942 is discussed: the possibility is that Britten wasbecoming nervous of the gathering US involvement in the war and the real chance he may be called up to serve in the US forces is also discussed here.
