One of the best-known experimental novels of the 1960s, Beautiful Losers is Leonard Cohen’ s most defiant and uninhibited work. As imagined by Cohen, hell is an apartment in Montreal, where a bereaved and lust-tormented narrator reconstructs his relations with the dead. In that hell two men and a woman twine impossibly and betray one another again and again. Memory blurs into blasphemous sexual fantasy--and redemption takes the form of an Iroquois saint and virgin who has been dead for 300 years but still has the power to save even the most degraded of her suitors. First published in 1966, Beautiful Losers demonstrates that its author is not only a superb songwriter but also a novelist of visionary power. Funny, harrowing, and fiercely moving, it is a classic erotic tragedy, incandescent in its prose and exhilarating for its risky union of sexuality and faith.

Beautiful Losers è il secondo e finora ultimo romanzo di Leonard Cohen; fu scritto sull’isola greca di Hydra nell’estate del 1965, quando Cohen, già affermato poeta e autore di un romanzo d’esordio lodato dalla critica, attraversava il tormentato periodo di crisi spirituale che si sarebbe concluso di lì a poco con l’inizio della sua trionfale carriera di cantautore. Il romanzo ruota attorno a tre personaggi – il narratore, sua moglie defunta e un suo amico – coinvolti in un triangolo amoroso e ossessionati dalla figura di una santa pellerossa vissuta nel Canada del Seicento; più che seguire una trama lineare, si sviluppa come un flusso di coscienza o una serie di illuminazioni, mescolando i temi che saranno cari al Cohen musicista: la religione, il misticismo, l’eros, la critica alla società contemporanea. Accolto con un misto di scandalo e ammirazione dalla critica ufficiale, che lo paragonò subito alle opere di Joyce, Burroughs ed Henry Miller, amato da Lou Reed e dagli ambienti della controcultura americana, Beautiful Losers resta uno dei migliori esempi della prosa più visionaria e psichedelica degli anni Sessanta.

Modello positivo nell'iconografia letteraria post-sessantottesca, il perdente viene travolto in Occidente, negli anni Ottanta, dal mito del successo, per poi riemergere, a fine secolo, apaticamente adagiato in un orizzonte di sconfitte quotidiane. Questo volume esamina le trasformazioni che la figura del perdente ha subito nella narrativa in inglese, in un percorso che va dai primi anni Sessanta, con Alan Sillito e il suo maratoneta, fino ai giorni nostri passando attraverso i beautiful losers di Leonard Cohen, gli eterni adolescenti depressi di Nick Hornby e gli everymen e Jonathan Coe.

Wild, respektlos und schräg - Leonard Cohens zweiter Roman verursachte bereits bei seiner Veröffentlichung im Jahr 1966 eine literarische Kontroverse. In Windeseile wurde "Beautiful Losers" zu einem internationalen Bestseller und avancierte zum Kultbuch einer ganzen Ära. Endlich ist der Roman nun zurück und hat nichts von seiner Sprengkraft eingebüsst. "Beautiful Losers" legt nahe, warum Cohen von Millionen Fans nicht nur als Sänger und Songwriter, sondern auch als Lyriker und Autor vereehrt wird. Leonard Cohen, geboren 1934 in Montreal als Sohn jüdischer Eltern, ist einer der populärsten Dichter, Sänger und Songwriter der Gegenwart und gilt als lebende Legende. Er veröffentlichte siebzehn Schallplatten und elf Bücher.

Leonard Cohen se consolidó como escritor con esta novela, que constituye un inmenso collage donde cada pieza explota en infinitas reminiscencias. Ensamblando con inaudita facilidad diálogos absurdos y escenas surreales con los más bellos fragmentos líricos, Hermosos perdedores es una obra carnal que utiliza la sensualidad como el mejor puente para acceder a la sabiduría más elevada. Un espléndido texto que aborda todos los temas y obsesiones que marcaron la génesis de Cohen como artista...

Dealing with the interconnections between music and the written word, this volume brings into focus an updated range of analytical and interpretative approaches which transcend the domain of formalist paradigms and the purist assumption of music’s non-referentiality. Grouped into three thematic sections, these fifteen essays by Italian, British and American scholars shed light on a phenomenological network embracing different historical, socio-cultural and genre contexts and a variety of theoretical concepts, such as intermediality, the soundscape notion, and musicalisation. At one end of the spectrum, music emerges as a driving cultural force, an agent cooperating with signifying and communication processes and an element functionally woven into the discursive fabric of the literary work. The authors also provide case studies of the fruitful musico-literary dialogue by taking into account the seminal role of composers, singer-songwriters, and performers. From another standpoint, the music-in-literature and literature-in-music dynamics are explored through the syntax of hybridisations, transcoding experiments, and iconic analogies.

The Future of Postcolonial Studies celebrates the twenty-fifth anniversary of the publication of The Empire Writes Back by the now famous troika - Bill Ashcroft, Gareth Griffiths and Helen Tiffin. When The Empire Writes Back first appeared in 1989, it put postcolonial cultures and their post-invasion narratives on the map. This vibrant collection of fifteen chapters by both established and emerging scholars taps into this early mapping while merging these concerns with present trends which have been grouped as: comparing, converting, greening, post-queering and utopia. The postcolonial is a centrifugal force that continues to energize globalization, transnational, diaspora, area and queer studies. Spanning the colonial period from the 1860s to the present, The Future of Postcolonial Studies ventures into other postcolonies outside of the Anglophone purview. In reassessing the nation-state, language, race, religion, sexuality, the environment, and the very idea of 'the future,' this volume reasserts the notion that postcolonial is an "anticipatory discourse" and bears testimony to the driving energy and thus the future of postcolonial studies.

Since cinema is a composite language, describing a movie is a complex challenge for critics and writers, and greatly differs from the ancient and successful genre of the ekphrasis, the literary description of a visual work of art. Imaginary Films in Literature deals with a specific and significant case within this broad category: the description of imaginary, non-existent movies – a practice that is more widespread than one might expect, especially in North American postmodern fiction. Along with theoretical contributions, the book includes the analyses of some case studies focusing on the borders between the visual and the literary, intermedial practices of hybridization, the limits of representation, and other related notions such as “memory”, “fragmentation”, “desire”, “genre”, “authorship”, and “censorship”.

While entailing a subversive re-vision of colonial histories, geographies, and subjectivities, the (post)colonial condition has unleashed a chain of movements, relocations, and re-writings that interrogate the globalized and neoliberal society. Ethnic, “racial”, religious, gendered, and sexual identities have been called into question, and requested to (re)define, name, and re-name themselves, to find new ways to tell their stories/histories. The very term “postcolonial” has triggered well-known controversial debates: its adoption is significant of a cultural politics involving the colonial past, controversial crisis in the present, and an open perspective toward alternative futures. Confronting literature and the arts from a postcolonial perspective is a critical and political task involving theories and cultural productions crossing barriers amongst fields of knowledge. The essays gathered here discuss postcolonialism as a transdisciplinary field of passages that negotiate among diverse yet interrelated cultural fields.
