Taking to heart Ralph Ellison's remark that much in American life is "jazz-shaped," The Jazz Cadence of American Culture offers a wide range of eloquent statements about the influence of this art form. Robert G. O'Meally has gathered a comprehensive collection of important essays, speeches, and interviews on the impact of jazz on other arts, on politics, and on the rhythm of everyday life. Focusing mainly on American artistic expression from 1920 to 1970, O'Meally confronts a long era of political and artistic turbulence and change in which American art forms influenced one another in unexpected ways. Organized thematically, these provocative pieces include an essay considering poet and novelist James Weldon Johnson as a cultural critic, an interview with Wynton Marsalis, a speech on the heroic image in jazz, and a newspaper review of a recent melding of jazz music and dance, Bring in 'Da Noise, Bring in 'Da Funk. From Stanley Crouch to August Wilson to Jacqui Malone, the plurality of voices gathered here reflects the variety of expression within jazz. The book's opening section sketches the overall place of jazz in America. Alan P. Merriam and Fradley H. Garner unpack the word jazz and its register, Albert Murray considers improvisation in music and life, Amiri Baraka argues that white critics misunderstand jazz, and Stanley Crouch cogently dissects the intersections of jazz and mainstream American democratic institutions. After this, the book takes an interdisciplinary approach, exploring jazz and the visual arts, dance, sports, history, memory, and literature. Ann Douglas writes on jazz's influence on the design and construction of skyscrapers in the 1920s and '30s, Zora Neale Hurston considers the significance of African-American dance, Michael Eric Dyson looks at the jazz of Michael Jordan's basketball game, and Hazel Carby takes on the sexual politics of Ma Rainey and Bessie Smith's blues. The Jazz Cadence offers a wealth of insight and information for scholars, students, jazz aficionados, and any reader wishing to know more about this music form that has put its stamp on American culture more profoundly than any other in the twentieth century.

Les mythes de la décadence montrent combien les mythes peuvent être repris, réécrits, réinvestis à une époque et combien leurs métamorphoses sont en liaison directe avec les représentations et les idéologies. Le mythe fait signe et fait sens dans l'actualité même qu'il énonce et avec laquelle il entretient un système référentiel souvent biaisé et oblique. Son statut même change et, si d'un côté on peut parler d'une décadence des mythes, objets de parodie réinscrivant une intertextualité foisonnante dans un espace de la perversion, d'un dérèglement dépravé et d'une corruption méthodique, on est tout autant sensible à la permanence du mythe comme tel, à sa ductilité et sa malléabilité qui permettent différents modes d'émergence et de réémergence, et de réinvestissements pulsionnels. Le présent volume montre comment le système narratif du mythe est mis à mal à la fin du XIXe siècle, comment les mythes de Faust, de Vénus, de Lilith, de Sappho, du Sphinx, de Circé, du Graal, de Salomé font l'objet de multiples réécritures, comment les figures du soleil couchant, de l'arrivée des Barbares, de Byzance, de l'androgyne, du Silène, de Sade, de Dracula sont l'objet d'interprétations mythifiantes chez P. Louÿs, C. Théotokis, Poictevin, Vallette, Arthur Symons, Bram Stoker, Mallarmé, Wilde, Péladan, Rollinat, Lemonnier, Laforgue, Verlaine, Champsaur, Swinburne, Renée Vivien, Bourges, Lorrain, Huysmans, Rodenbach, Mendès, Adam, Remy de Gourmont, Jean de Tinan et bien d'autres.-

All of the essays in this collection reflect a sense that Beckett's power as a playwright derives largely from a mythic vision that informs his drama. Their approaches to the definition and use of myth and ritual in his plays vary considerably, however, ranging from the Jungian to the Marxian to the Lacanian, and drawing on the theories of Campbell, Freud, Eliade, Frye, Turner, Girard, Baudrillard, and others.

Myth in the Modern Novel: Imagining the Absolute posits a twofold thesis. First, although Modernity is regarded as an era dominated by science and rational thought, it has in fact not relinquished the hold of myth, a more "primitive" form of thought which is difficult to reconcile with modern rationality. Second, some of the most important statements as to the reconcilability of myth and Modernity are found in the work of certain prominent novelists. This book offers a close examination of the work of eleven writers from the late eighteenth century to the beginning of the twenty-first, representing German, French, American, Czech and Swedish literature. The analyses of individual novels reveal a variety of intriguing views of myth in Modernity, and offer an insight into the "modernizing" transformations myth has undergone when applied in the modern novel. The study shows the presence of the "subconscious", the mythic layer, in modern western culture and how this has been dealt with in novelistic literature.
