        Medieval history
        April 2009

        Music, scholasticism and reform

        Salian Germany 1024–1125

        by T. J. H. McCarthy

        This fascinating study looks at music and its intellectual context in the eleventh and twelfth centuries. Drawing on a rich body of theoretical literature and manuscript sources, this book paints a detailed picture of the study of music in eleventh-and early twelfth-century Germany. It focuses on the activity of a group of prominent intellectuals based in the monastic and cathedral schools of the German Kingdom, charting their sources and shared concerns, while subtly examining their reception and modification of each others' ideas. Distilling a considerable amount of German scholarship, it situates music in its proper place among other intellectual developments that took place in eleventh-century Germany. This book is above all a study of motivations and thought processes of a group of medieval thinkers: it and will appeal to specialist and non-specialist ecclesiastical, intellectual and cultural historians, as well as to historians of music and of medieval culture.

        Die verlorene Ehre der Katharina Blum

        Mit Materialien und einem Nachwort des Autors

        by Böll, Heinrich

        A young woman inadvertently becomes the centre of the sensationalism and political agitation of a boulevard newspaper. After falling in love with a young man who is wanted by police for “radicalism”, Katharina Blum’s life is made unbearable by journalists who scrutinize and make public every aspect of her private life. The consequence of this violation of her privacy by the media is the beginning of the story: Katharina Blum has shot a journalist and another photographer has been shot by an unknown woman. This is the shocking incident that cries for interpretation and clarification. The pattern of the street ballad of a woman’s lost honour is used here for its emancipatory and aggressive potential: The woman who has been humiliated in the public opinion fights back – if necessary with violence. Böll added in a preface: “Characters and storyline are a work of fiction. Should similarities to the journalistic methods of a certain boulevard newspaper be detected, these similarities are neither intended nor accidental but inevitable.” "Böll sustains a masterly and insidious tension to the end. He is detached, angry and totally in control" (The Times) "Such is the force of Böll’s conviction, the clarity of his vision and the icy economy of his unemotive prose that within this short space he has distilled a spirit that burns into the palate the unmistakeable and lasting tang of truth" (Sunday Times) "A marvel of compression and irony" (Sunday Telegraph)

        Vivien Leigh

        Actress and icon

        by Kate Dorney, Maggie B. Gale

        This edited volume provides new readings of the life and career of iconic actress Vivien Leigh (1913-67), written by experts from theatre and film studies and curators from the Victoria & Albert Museum, London. The collection uses newly accessible family archives to explore the intensely complex relationship between Vivien Leigh's approach to the craft of acting for stage and screen, and how she shaped, developed and projected her public persona as one of the most talked about and photographed actresses of her era. With key contributors from the UK, France and the US, chapters range from analyses of her work on stage and screen to her collaborations with designers and photographers, an analysis of her fan base, her interior designs and the 'public ownership' of Leigh's celebrity status during her lifetime and beyond.
