359 p. 12mo. 16 cm. Foxed. Contemporary full leather binding. (American) manuscript ownership of John Meyers. An important collection of German Christian mystical texts. This edition is very scarce, and especially more interesting for its American ownership. Jakob Boehme (or Böhme) [1575-1624], German religious mystic, a cobbler of Görlitz, in England also called Behmen. He was a student of the Bible and was influenced by Paracelsus. In his major works, De signatura rerum (The Signature of all Things) and Mysterium magnum, Boehme describes God as the abyss, the nothing and the all, the primordial depths from which the creative will struggles forth to find manifestation and self-consciousness. Evil is a result of the striving of single elements of Deity to become the whole; conflict ensues as man and nature strive to achieve God who, in himself, contains all antithetical principles. Boehme exerted a profound influence on the philosophies of Baader, Schelling, Hegel, and Schopenhauer. Boehme claimed divine revelation and had many followers in Germany and Holland. Societies of Behmenites were formed in England; many of them were later absorbed by the Quakers. QUITE SCARCE AND IMPORTANT. **PRICE JUST REDUCED! PA 011A.

Bologna, 1920 (ma ristampa, 1982), 8vo stralcio con copertina posticcia muta, pp. 44. - !! ATTENZIONE !!: Con il termine estratto (o stralcio) intendiamo riferirci ad un fascicolo contenente un articolo, completo in se, sia che esso sia stato stampato a parte utilizzando la stessa composizione sia che provenga direttamente da una rivista. Le pagine sono indicate come "da/a", ad esempio: 229/231 significa che il testo è composto da tre pagine. Quando la rivista di provenienza non viene indicata é perché ci è sconosciuta. - !!

If the magazine that contained the pages is not mentioned, it is because it is unknown to us.

ril. Simbolo del suono della Stax, l'etichetta di Memphis cha ha profondamente influenzato la scena musicale degli anni Sessanta e non solo, Otis Redding è stato un interprete straordinario, un artista che ha colpito l'attenzione e la sensibilità di milioni di persone in tutto il mondo. In circostanze rocambolesche, entra a far parte della Stax. Nel giro di pochi anni, grazie a un numero impressionante di concerti e a una serie di incisioni divenute storiche, Otis Redding diventerà la stella, il cuore e l'anima del soul di Memphis e, più in generale, del Southern Soul. Quando morì tragicamente nel dicembre del 1967, non solo era all'apice della carriera, ma era pronto a scrivere una nuova e importante pagina della sua vicenda artistica. Tre mesi dopo la sua scomparsa (Sittin' On the) Dock of the Bay, una sorta di testamento in musica, parole e anima, arriverà al primo posto delle classifiche internazionali. Lavoratore infaticabile, uomo generoso e gentile, nessuno ha trasmesso la passione del soul come lui.
ill., br. Dalla penna di Alberto Castelli - tra i maggiori conoscitori della black music in Italia - un viaggio nel tempo attraverso città come Chicago, New York, Philadelphia, Memphis, Detroit, Londra, Kingston per celebrare, con il ritmo di un programma radiofonico, stili, artisti, canzoni e album diventati classici della musica "african american". Un racconto appassionato e corale nel cuore della black music contemporanea, dal jazz al blues, dal gospel al rhythm'n'blues, dal soul classico degli anni Sessanta alla stagione funk del decennio successivo. Dallo ska al rocksteady al reggae, al dub, all'hip hop. Una collezione di ritratti di artisti come Otis Redding, Bob Marley, Quincy Jones, Michael Jackson, Al Green, Anita Baker, Prince, e campioni dello sport, quali Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Muhammad Ali e tanti altri. Una sorta di diario dell'educazione sentimentale per una passione diventata professione attraverso luoghi, incontri, interviste - alcune pubblicate per la prima volta - amicizie. L'omaggio definitivo a una musica che ha saputo sprigionare e trasmettere rabbia e sensualità, gioia e dolore, orgoglio e passione. Un patrimonio da rispettare; un suono universale che è diventato la colonna sonora per generazioni diverse. Perché, come cantava Bob Marley "una delle cose belle della musica, è che quando ti colpisce, tu non senti dolore".

br. "The Baeautiful Prince" racconta la storia del genio di Minneapolis attraverso l'analisi delle sue interviste, da quelle rilasciate alla fine degli anni Settanta a quelle del primo decennio del Duemila. Prince ha sempre avuto un rapporto complicato con la stampa. Essendo una persona molto timida, si sentiva inerme davanti allo sguardo degli altri, in preda al timore di risultare inadeguato, di non essere all'altezza della sua fama. Sembra impossibile da credere, ma Prince, l'uomo che sul palco si scatenava, era seduttivo, ammaliava tutti, uomini e donne, quando si trovava davanti a un giornalista o nel corso di una conferenza stampa, temeva di dire la cosa sbagliata, di rendersi ridicolo (era convinto di avere un tono di voce sgradevole, ad esempio). Tuttavia gli occhi di quei giornalisti - gli occhi che nel corso degli anni lo osservano, lo scrutano, lo giudicano - risultano importantissimi per noi. A volte quegli sguardi sono più importanti delle dichiarazioni e delle parole stesse che Prince pronuncia davanti a loro. Quegli occhi attenti (e spesso malevoli) riescono a cogliere un tic, una smorfia, un gesto di disappunto, che sfuggono al maniacale controllo che Prince esercitava costantemente su se stesso e ci permettono anche di capire qualcosa. Illuminano una circostanza, consentono di inquadrare un momento della sua vita. Nel corso della sua carriera, Prince si è barricato dietro un muro pressoché impenetrabile, per proteggere se stesso e la sua creatività. Molte delle fonti presenti in questo libro concordano sul fatto che quel muro impenetrabile aveva lo scopo di consentirgli di lavorare e di creare spazio all'interno di una bolla che lo faceva sentire sicuro.
