Otar Sepiashvili – movie critic, scenarist, journalist, essayist, an outstanding contributor to the Georgian cultural landscape, and the author of numerous magazine articles, as well as fourteen books, three of which, such as Time and the Big Screen (1969), War on the Big Screen (1975), Charlie – A Small Man?, No, A Hero! (1991) were awarded the First Prize by the Cinematographic Union in the “Critical Analysis and Theory of Cinema”. He was one of the pioneers of professional movie criticism in Georgia and was responsible for its popularization in different forms of media, such as print periodicals and television. Following graduation from the University, he started working for the newspaper Tbilisi, and the magazine Soviet Art. In 1959 he became a member of the Soviet Journalist Union, in 1960 joined the Union of Soviet Cinematographers. For 12 years he presided over the “Critical Analysis and Theory of Cinema” department of the Union of Georgian Cinematographers. He was also a member of the popular science cinematography committee of the Union of the Soviet Cinematographers, the governing committee of the Journalist Union of Tbilisi, and the editorial board of the publishing house known as Art. For thirty years he taught the art of cinema at the Tbilisi University. He was the fi rst in the Georgian press to become an accredited correspondent to the international cinematographic forums and the fi rst to write reviews about movie festivals in Moscow, Cannes, Venice, and Delhi. In 1969 he became the chief editor for the Georgian State Television. There he organized editorial teams that were focused on tasks that were responsible for daily TV programming. He led this team for 26 years, during which he created many popular TV shows, especially the famous weekly Illusion, which he authored and anchored himself, airing over 750 episodes. His scripts were used for 10 documentaries and TV movies, among them was the three part fi lm Movie and Years, and Time for Gathering Stones, both of which were fi lmed in Israel in 1989. In 1996 he moved to New York where he currently resides and works for the Georgian and Russian press.

The acclaimed classical composer chronicles his life and work in twentieth-century Soviet Russia with the help of a distinguished musicologist. Since the time of his death, Dmitri Shostakovich’s place in the pantheon of twentieth-century composers has become more commanding and more celebrated, while his musical legacy, with all its wonderfully varied richness, is performed with increasing frequency throughout the world. This seemingly endless surge of interest can be attributed, at least in part, to Testimony, the powerful memoirs the ailing compose dictated to the young Russian musicology Solomon Volkov. When Testimony was first published in the West in 1979, it became an international bestseller, and was called the “book of the year” by The Times in London. The Guardian heralded Testimony as “the most influential music book of the 20th century.” Testimony offers a chance to reckon with the life and work of one of history’s most lauded musical geniuses—as a man and an artist.

Jews and humor is, for most people, a natural and felicitous collocation. In spite of, or perhaps because of, a history of crises and living on the edge, Jews have often created or resorted to humor. But what is humor? And what makes certain types, instances, or performances of humor "Jewish"? These are among the myriad queries addressed by the fourteen authors whose essays are collected in this volume. And, thankfully, their observations, always apt and often witty, are expressed with a lightness of style and a depth of analysis that are appropriate to the many topics they cover. The scholars who contributed to this collection allow readers both to discern the common features that make up "Jewish humor" and to delight in the individualism and eccentricities of the many figures whose lives and accomplishments are narrated here. Because these essays are written in a clear, jargon-free style, they will appeal to everyone—even those who don't usually crack a smile!

"The Victorian cup on my shelf--a present from my mother--reads 'Love the Giver.' Is it because the very word patronage implies the authority of the father that we have treated American women patrons and activists so unlovingly in the writing of our own history? This pioneering collection of superb scholarship redresses that imbalance. At the same time it brilliantly documents the interrelationship between various aspects of gender and the creation of our own culture."--Judith Tick, author of Ruth Crawford Seeger: A Composer's Search for American Music "Together with the fine-grained and energetic research, I like the spirit of this book, which is ambitious, bold, and generous minded. Cultivating Music in America corrects long-standing prejudices, omissions, and misunderstandings about the role of women in setting up the structures of America's musical life, and, even more far-reaching, it sheds light on the character of American musical life itself. To read this book is to be brought to a fresh understanding of what is at stake when we discuss notions such as 'elitism, ' 'democratic taste, ' and the political and economic implications of art."--Richard Crawford, author of The American Musical Landscape "We all know we are indebted to royal patronage for the music of Mozart. But who launched American talent? The answer is women, this book teaches us. Music lovers will be grateful for these ten essays, sound in scholarship, that make a strong case for the women philanthropists who ought to join Carnegie and Rockefeller as household words as sponsors of music."--Karen J. Blair, author of The Torchbearers: Women and Their Amateur Arts Associations in America
