        The Island Book of Records Volume II

        1969-70

        by Neil Storey

        The second volume of this highly collectable series, covering the pivotal years of 1969-70. The Island Book of Records Volume II documents the years 1969-70, during which Island sought to build on its success with the Spencer Davis Group by seeking out new British rock talent. By the end of the period, Island was emerging as a major British label, one that could boast releases from Jethro Tull, Nick Drake, King Crimson, John and Beverley Martyn, Fairport Convention and Cat Stevens. Featuring material from recent interviews and from media interviews of the time, and including a comprehensive discography of 45s, The Island Book of Records Volume II is lavishly illustrated with gig adverts (very many at venues that no longer exist), concert tickets, flyers, international LP variants, labels, LP and 45 adverts and other ephemera collector's dream.

        The Island Book of Records Volume III

        1971-72

        by Neil Storey

        The third in the acclaimed Island Book of Records series chronicles 1971-72, two years that saw the label secure a position at the forefront of contemporary music around the world. Major albums from Cat Stevens, Emerson, Lake & Palmer and Jethro Tull brought international success. Traffic released their era-defining The Low Spark of High Heeled Boys and Island returned to its roots with the soundtrack to the most important Jamaican film of all time, The Harder They Come. Nick Drake's masterpieces Bryter Layter and Pink Moon were yet to find their audience, but a new sensation emerged as Roxy Music released their first LP. Meanwhile, Bob Marley & The Wailers were beginning to record Catch A Fire - the album that will be the first to be detailed in IBoR IV. Featuring material from recent interviews and comment of the time, and including a comprehensive discography of 45s, The Island Book of Records Volume III is lavishly illustrated with album art, gig adverts, tickets, flyers, international LP variants, rare photos, LP and 45 adverts and exclusive ephemera.

        Der moralische Nexus

        Frankfurter Vorlesungen

        by R. Jay Wallace, Karin Wördemann

        R. Jay Wallace geht in seinen Frankfurter Vorlesungen der Frage nach, inwiefern die Moral als eigenständiger Bereich einer »bilateralen Normativität« verstanden werden kann. Eine solche »bilaterale Normativität«, wie sie etwa in Abmachungen, Verträgen oder Versprechen, aber auch in familiären Beziehungen zum Tragen kommt, ist ihm zufolge insofern spezifisch, als sie zwei Personen so miteinander verbindet, dass ihre jeweiligen normativen Situationen nur mit Bezug auf die Lage der anderen Person verstanden werden können. Dass diese Situationen genuin moralisch sind, zeigt Wallace in seinem Text, der spannende Perspektiven auf den so schwierigen Begriff der Normativität eröffnet.

        Engendering an avant-garde

        The unsettled landscapes of Vancouver photo-conceptualism

        by Leah Modigliani

        Engendering an avant-garde is the first book to comprehensively examine the origins of Vancouver photo-conceptualism in its regional context between 1968 and 1990. Employing discourse analysis of texts written by and about artists, feminist critique and settler-colonial theory, the book discusses the historical transition from artists' creation of 'defeatured landscapes' between 1968-71 to their cinematographic photographs of the late 1970s and the backlash against such work by other artists in the late 1980s. It is the first study to provide a structural account for why the group remains all-male. It accomplishes this by demonstrating that the importation of a European discourse of avant-garde activity, which assumed masculine social privilege and public activity, effectively excluded women artists from membership.
