In early 1960’s Palo Alto, Jerry Garcia randomly opened a dictionary to a fable in which an appreciative soul repays the generosity of a traveler by delivering him a fortune, a “gift of the grateful dead.” After a traumatic car accident that injured him and killed a close friend, Garcia had recently resolved to build the life he wanted, which meant making music.

Johann Sebastian Bach dejó una biblioteca de poco más de ochenta libros entre los que se contaban títulos de teología y espiritualidad—o al menos así lo certifica el inventario efectuado a su muerte—, y que constituyeron, cabe imaginar que junto a otros textos, un espacio de intimidad cotidiana y de reflexión. Contemporáneo de Newton y Leibniz, su música fue creada en un momento crucial del ideario de Occidente, y así lo refleja su inaudita capacidad de absorber las propuestas procedentes de la Razón y el espíritu y transformarlas en un arte de insólita penetración intelectual y humana.

This is the story behind the saga of Depp v Heard; but far from a forensic rehashing of the trial it is also an exploration of a much more complex and captivating narrative: about celebrity culture and the Hollywood exploitation machine; ‘internet journalism’ and distrust of mainstream media; the limitations of the justice system to find and record the truth; and the shifting winds of MeToo feminism.

Leonardo da Vinci (1452-1519) never signed a painting, and none of his supposed self-portraits can be securely ascribed to his hand. He revealed next to nothing about his life in his extensive writings, yet countless pages have been written about him that assign him an identity: genius, entrepreneur, celebrity artist, outsider. Addressing the ethical stakes involved in studying past lives, Stephen J. Campbell shows how this invented Leonardo has invited speculation from figures ranging from art dealers and curators to scholars, scientists, and biographers.

సినిమా తీయటం ఒక ఆర్ట్... అదే విధంగా సినిమా చూడటం కూడా ఆర్ట్ అనే అనుకోవాలి. సినిమా చూడటం అనే ప్రక్రియ ఒక పగటికల కనటం లాంటిది. దర్శకుడు చెప్పాలనుకున్న విషయాన్ని ఎంత కవితాత్మకంగా చెప్పాడో, ఎంత లోతైన అర్థంతో ఒక షాట్ డిజైన్ చేసాడో తెలియకపోతే ఆ సినిమా పూర్తిగా అర్థం కాదు.. కొన్ని సినిమాలకి ప్రాంతం, భాష, టైం పీరియడ్ లాంటి వాటితో సంబంధం ఉండదు. ప్రపంచంలో ఏ మూలన ఏ భాషకి చెందిన మనిషైనా ఆ సినిమా తనకు సంబంధించినదే అనుకొని అనుభూతి చెందుతాడు.

Tchaikovsky is famous for all the wrong reasons. Portrayed as a hopeless romantic, a suffering melancholic, or a morbid obsessive, the Tchaikovsky we think we know is a shadow of the fascinating reality.

In this iconoclastic biography, celebrated author Simon Morrison recreates Tchaikovsky's complex world.
