From the Sublime to the Ridiculous by Brian(bill) Haley Bem Pdf
This intense descriptive veracity continues as the narrative moves on to shipboard service. The first phase of the memoir is a lengthy and vividly detailed account of the harsh regime at the Royal Navy's training establishment in Gosport, Hampshire. The second phase, which is sustained over half the total memoir, is an account of the experiences in exotic waters from the Mediterranean, down the east coast of Africa, and eventually on to Singapore and Hong Kong. The third phase of the memoir, which is its centerpiece, spans a period of seven years as a member of the crew of the Royal Yacht Britannia. This is another big eye-opener, an insight into running one of the most unusual, famous, and in some eyes, controversial naval vessels of its day.The narrative continues and is built around a fascinating account of a single cruise in 1970, which followed the route taken by Captain Cook's voyage to Australia two hundred years previously. Finally, as a member of the task force that set out to the South Atlantic in 1982, featured are many vividly detailed battles that allowed the Falkland Islands to be returned to the United Kingdom.

I've been listening to music ever since I was small. A few years ago I started to write about it. I started to blog and to tweet and to generally annoy anyone who would care to read my secular evangelical rantings about Jonathan Richman, and my inexplicable love of kitschy popular music, disco, hip-hop and doo-wop. Very soon I was writing for the North East’s premier music magazine NE:MM, which became the North East’s premier music website. Most of my NE:MM album and gig reviews are included in ‘Writing about music’ – I’ve corrected most of the spellings, but I’ve left in all of the grammatical errors (I prefer to think of them as ‘quirks’). Many of my interviews are here too, Roger McGuinn, Nils Lofgren, Matthew Healy, Ben Watt, Fish, Kathryn Williams, Duke Special, Penetration, Thomas Truax, Steve Hackett and Nick Heyward, who told me he thought Haircut 100 were going to become Britain’s Talking Heads. There’s other stuff too. Quite a few lists (let’s face it, making lists is what middle-aged men do best) including my favourite 50 debut albums, which proved hugely controversial with three people on Twitter. And (by the way, I regularly start sentences with ‘and’. If you’re easily offended, please look away) there are some excerpts from another book that’s in the pipeline. Quite a long way down the pipeline if I can be brutally honest.

Walter Benjamin and the Aesthetics of Power by Lutz Peter Koepnick Pdf
Walter Benjamin and the Aesthetics of Power explores Walter Benjamin?s seminal writings on the relationship between mass culture and fascism. The book offers a nuanced reading of Benjamin?s widely influential critique of aesthetic politics, while it contributes to current debates about the cultural projects of Nazi Germany, the changing role of popular culture in the twentieth century, and the way in which Nazi aesthetics have persisted into the present. Lutz Koepnick first explores the development of the aestheticization thesis in Benjamin?s work from the early 1920s to his death in 1940. Pushing Benjamin?s fragmentary remarks to a logical conclusion, Koepnick sheds light on the ways in which the Nazis employed industrial mass culture to redress the political as a self-referential space of authenticity and self-assertion. Koepnick then examines to what extent Benjamin?s analysis of fascism holds up to recent historical analyses of the National Socialist period and whether Benjamin?s aestheticization thesis can help conceptualize cultural politics today. Although Koepnick insists on crucial differences between the stage-managing of political action in modern and postmodern societies, he argues throughout that it is in Benjamin?s emphatic insistence on experience that we may find the relevance of his reflections today. Walter Benjamin and the Aesthetics of Power is both an important contribution to Benjamin studies and a revealing addition to our understanding of the Third Reich and of contemporary culture?s uneasy relationship to Nazi culture.
