In So Many Words
Author: Robert Schmuhl
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 232
Book Description
Since 1975, Robert Schmuhl's writing and teaching have focused on American political culture and contemporary communication, particularly the news media. In So Many Words brings together nearly forty of Schmuhl's previously published essays, which have appeared in the Washington Post, Philadelphia Inquirer, Chicago Tribune, Boston Globe, American Journalism Review, and Notre Dame Magazine, among others. From investigating contemporary political life, to assessing the current state of journalism, to ruminating on today's republic of letters, this volume demonstrates one writer's probing--and catholic--curiosity. Arranged thematically, with the essays divided into three sections--Matters Political and Journalistic, Matters Literary, and Matters Personal--In So Many Words invites readers to ponder a wide range of issues, such as the debate over preemptive war, the compositional idiosyncrasies of wordsmiths, and the vagaries of media punditry. Variety, in both subjects considered and approaches pursued, is a hallmark of this collection. The essay form allows the author to move back and forth between longer and shorter expositions and serious or more playful perspectives. The phrase "in so many words" carries two meanings: precision or exactitude in language and candor or plain speaking. This is a book that lives up to its title by presenting arguments and dramatizing adventures in no uncertain terms. Whether stimulating thought, generating controversy, or evoking laughter, the consistently high quality of Schmuhl's writing throughout In So Many Words offers both elucidation and enjoyment. "If you--like most of us--find wisdom and wit in seriously short supply, you can get yourself an immediate refill by reading and relishing Robert Schmuhl's In So Many Words. In his inspired essay on U.S. foreign policy, 'Going Our Way,' Schmuhl proves to be a prophet--with both honor and wisdom; in 'Confessions of a Quote Slut,' his humor pulls back the curtain and reveals 'dark secrets' about those of us who make contemporary journalism. I am completely confident if you read 'Between Books' and 'Scout's Honor'--and the pieces in between--Schmuhl, just as he made me, will make you laugh and will make you think." --Mark Shields, syndicated columnist, political commentator for The NewsHour with Jim Lehrer on PBS "Bob Schmuhl is the guy I read when I want to understand how things political, cultural, and journalistic interact--and how the world works as a result. He's an analyst who is cool and collected, and so it's cool to know that he's collected, between cloth covers." --David M. Shribman, executive editor of Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, syndicated columnist, and Pulitzer prize winner "I've known and respected the work of Bob Schmuhl my entire professional life. This collection of his work shines with enthusiasm for journalism, American culture, and the English language." --Roy Peter Clark, senior scholar, The Poynter Institute, and author of Writing Tools: 50 Essential Strategies for Every Writer

Sound & Score
Author: Virginia Anderson (Musicologist)
Publisher: Leuven University Press
ISBN: 9058679764
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 232
Book Description
Sound and Score brings together music expertise from prominent international researchers and performers to explore the intimate relations between sound and score and the artistic possibilities that this relationship yields for performers, composers and listeners. Considering "notation" as the totality of words, signs, and symbols encountered on the road to an accurate and effective performance of music, this book embraces different styles and periods in a comprehensive understanding of the complex relations between invisible sound and mute notation, between aural perception and visual representation, and between the concreteness of sound and the iconic essence of notation. Three main perspectives structure the analysis: a conceptual approach that offers contributions from different fields of enquiry (history, musicology, semiotics), a practical one that takes the skilled body as its point of departure (written by performers), and finally an experimental perspective that challenges state-of-the-art practices, including transdisciplinary approaches in the crossroads to visual arts and dance.
