Sommario/riassunto

This collection reclaims public intellectuals and scholars important to the foundational work in American Studies that contributed to emerging conceptions of an ""ecological citizenship"" advocating something other than nationalism or an ""exclusionary ethics of place."" Co-editors Adamson and Ruffin recover underrecognized field genealogies in American Studies (i.e. the work of early scholars whose scope was transnational and whose activism focused on race, class and gender) and ecocriticism (i.e. the work of movement leaders, activists and scholars concerned with environmental justice who

Sommario/riassunto

Pendant plus de trente ans, Adorno a nourri le projet d’une monographie consacrée à Beethoven, que sa disparition brutale en 1969 ne lui a pas permis d’achever. Collectés dans ses carnets et complétés par des extraits d’œuvres publiées, les fragments réunis dans ce volume permettent de cerner l’armature de cette « philosophie de la musique » inédite. Passant avec virtuosité des analyses musicales les plus fines à l’interprétation philosophique la plus audacieuse, Adorno déchiffre dans la musique de Beethoven le destin contrasté des Lumières au moment où le capitalisme prend son essor. Il donne également à la contemporanéité de Beethoven et de Hegel (tous deux nés en 1770) un sens philosophique décisif, qui éclaire l’affinité élective qui dans toute son œuvre unit musique et philosophie. Quant



aux analyses consacrées au « style tardif » de Beethoven, elles sont devenues, en un temps où le sentiment de l’après n’a peut-être jamais été aussi vif, une référence incontournable. Si Adorno a souvent été présenté comme le porte-parole de Schoenberg, ces textes et fragments montrent à quel point toute sa philosophie de la musique, si ce n’est l’ensemble de sa pensée, gravite autour de ce foyer qui porte le nom de Beethoven.

Sommario/riassunto

"Advances in Ecopolitics Series" presents a collection of environmental alternatives worthy of consideration in light of the ongoing economic downturn which has accompanied the latest incarnation of unsustainable practices. Each publication discusses a significant element in the environmental theory which now represents an important aspect of sustainable living. The latest volume, "Global Ecological Politics", examines the range of environmental campaigns that are occurring across the planet. It showcases a selection of case studies on grassroots initiatives and activism in areas such as green economic alternatives, regional activism in defence of communities, alternative or utopian communities, green politics and ecotourism. This extensive array of ecological participation demonstrates that viable green alternatives are available in this current era of legitimation crisis across the formal political and economic sectors. "Global Ecological Politics" presents an important collection of articles for researchers, lecturers and academics in the socio-economic and political sector and is essential reading for those involved in all areas of environmentalism.
