When a series of events brings Taq back into his life, the feelings of protectiveness and joy awakened in his dog’s heart tell him that Taq is his soul’s mate.īut neither the Qimmig nor the Inuit are prepared to accept this bond. But it is forbidden for the Qimmig to have anything to do with one-skinned Inupiat. Could the Qimmig really exist? And could they have anything to do with the special, golden-eyed boy he’d played with as a child?Ĭupun has missed his old friend, Taq. But when he witnesses two guys survive a polar bear attack by shifting into dogs, he has to rethink everything. Taq figured that was just another story elders told around the campfire. The Qimmig and the People lived together happily until one of the Inuit betrayed the dog-men. Legend says that, centuries ago, the sled dogs and the Inuit were so deeply bonded that the dogs rose up on two legs and became men.

His ambitious plan to adapt the great works of opera into comics form is audacious, but his flowing, poetic lines and fanciful colors are an art in and of themselves.Ĭopyright © Reed Business Information, a division of Reed Elsevier Inc. Russell channels Aubrey Beardsley's original illustrations while giving the story his own spin. Lastly, Salome, based on the Oscar Wilde play, decadently contrasts spiritual and physical virtue. Cavallieria Rusticana ("The Godfather's Code") is another story of cuckoldry it contrasts vengeance with the sunny rebirth of an Easter morning. The short Ein Heldentraum is a single song, and Russell's art and coloring provide a unique reinterpretation of the lyrics and add an additional layer of meaning. The beautiful illustrations and dream-like colors (evoking light, sea and stars) make this tortured story of love and grief even more epic. Craig Russell Library of Opera Adaptions: Adaptions of Parsifal, Ariana & Bluebeard, I Pagliacci & Songs By Mahler (Russell, P. Craig Russell Library of Opera Adaptations, V. Russell's new interpretation of the metaphysical fantasies of Maeterlinck and Debussy is ravishing. Craig Russell & Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart includes books The Magic Flute: Adapted from the Opera by W.A. The first, Pelléas & Mélisande, tells the story of a girl whom readers meet weeping in a forest, and the ensuing love triangle between her and brothers Pelléas and Golaud, which destroys them all. This final book in its series adapts Pelléas & Mélisande, Salome, Ein Heldentraum and Cavallieria Rusticana, introducing each opera with an educational text on the work and its author. Her current series is one of DC’s best books right now. To Greek mythology, and would love to put my spin on her. Wonder Woman is on the top of the short list of superheroes I’d love to write. With its version of Hercules has been very entertaining, and mythologically accurate as well. My all-time favorite celluloid depictions of the gods are Venus (Aphrodite) and Vulcan (Hephaestus) in Terry Gilliam’s “Adventures of Baron Munchausen” - he nailed the look and the attitude.Īs far as comics go, I already mentioned my love for “The Mighty Thor.” Even though he’s a Norse deity, he still encounters a lot of characters from Greek mythology. I thought that the recentįilm “The Immortals,” although it didn’t come close to anything resembling accuracy as far as mythology goes, did do a great job of picturing the gods - young, beautiful, powerful, dangerous. I don’t get upset that they don’t capture the gods in “the correct” way, it’s just another person’s interpretation. I was not a fan of the way the gods were depicted in either of the “Clash of the Titans,” though the first one sort of gets a pass from me just because I saw it at such an impressionable age. of the Underworld and one of the most famous of all Greek myths: Hades abduction of Persephone and her mothers revenge. Within the boundaries of individual life-series, an interior aspect makes itself apparent. The course of individual lives, of groups, and of the sociopolitical whole do not fuse together, they are dispersed, there are gaps they are measured by different scales of value each of these series has its own logic of development, its own narratives,Įach makes use of and reinterprets the ancient motifs in its own way. But nevertheless they are separate, even here. Thus in the early stages of slaveholding society and in feudal society, individual life-sequences are still rather tightly interwoven with the common life of the most immediate social group. “Society itself falls apart into class and intraclass groups individual life-sequences are directly linked with these and together both individual life and subgroups are opposed to the whole. The narrator does a nice job of giving voice to people who we can only try to imagine from the words on the page as they share their story of respect, loneliness and community. Steinbeck takes us through the slow motion disaster of a party and builds tension as we wait for Doc to return home to the destruction Mack and the Boys created. They want to express gratitude for Doc and make a mess of things. Mack and the Boys are everywhere and add spice to the community on Cannery Row. Yet he is empty in places that Steinbeck is able to reveal and describe. Doc is the main character, a man with a solid education, job and place in the world of marine biology. They are not people like me, yet they are every part of my life experience. The story is about respect and how people on Cannery Row have lives devoid of meaning apart from place and time. Steinbeck builds characters that you fall in love with and then struggle to support as they drift into trouble usually of their own making. The event was known thereafter as the Haystack Prayer Meeting, and historians speak of it as the beginning of American-based foreign missionary work. During the meeting, a thunderstorm caught the five young men and they sought shelter in a haystack. In the summer of 1806, a group of students from Williams College planned to meet and pray about the subject of foreign missions in a grove of trees in Sloan’s Meadow near Williamstown, MA. We must understand, of course, that Judson’s missionary career was the product of several earlier events as the other Tribune articles will show. To commemorate that event, the Tribune is republishing a biographical article about Judson (May 1998, Tribune) and an article about Ann Hazeltine Judson, whom Adoniram married in 1812 (April 2008, Tribune). Editor’s Note: 2012 marks the 200th anniversary of Adoniram Judson’s inaugural missionary journey, first to India and later Burma (modern Myanmar).

I opened at random and my eye fell on p 382:ĭuchamp invented a category he called “infra-mince”, “sub-tiny” it was occupied, for instance, by the difference in weight between a clean shirt and the same shirt worn once. He moves the story forward in several broad themes – how art confronts or is absorbed by power what architecture thinks it’s doing to us the interior landscapes of art like surrealism and abstraction and how art has lost any kind of plot it thought it might have had, and if that might be a good thing. This book is the 1991 expanded version of the 1980 book-of-the-TV-series. “Machines were the ideal metaphor for that central pornographic fantasy of the 19th century, rape followed by gratitude.” “To make ‘socialist’ art, one must stop depicting ownable things: in short, go abstract.” “The idea that fascism always preferred retrograde to advanced art is simply a myth.” “Mass media took away the political speech of art.” In cubist paintings the world was “a twitching skin of nuances”. The phonograph was “the most radical extension of cultural memory since the photograph”. Viewing Paris from the Eiffel Tower in 1889 was “one of the pivots in human consciousness”. It’s stuffed full of ideas and sentences that refresh like a splash of seaspray. I think it’s the best single art book I’ve read. Again today I was lost in admiration of this history-with-attitude of 20th century art. |
