Veils of Apollo is a powerful collection of poems and drawings/paintings that illuminate forms of revelation, healing, and spiritual liberation through the arts. Lauren Coyle Rosen intersperses her poems with her visual art, tracing the vitalities of dance, music, sculpture, painting, theater, and the artistic movements of the so-called natural world. This is the third volume in Prisms, the moving second series of Lauren Coyle Rosen's selected poetic works. Prisms as frame refers to the ways in which the light of spirit or consciousness is refracted through various forms in our inner and outer realms - through prisms of the mind, heart, and soul, and through prisms of culture and nature, music and words, and much else. This much else includes poems, which can mirror or refract the light that emanates from inner knowing and consciousness, for the writer and the reader. Poems, as prisms, morph in meaning and significance with shifting senses, vantage points, and atmospheres. As with her first series of poetry, Smokeless Mirrors (in three volumes), the Prisms series resonates with Coyle Rosen's broader works on art, spirituality, consciousness, and liberation in prose and in other modalities. On Lauren Coyle Rosen's poetry: "Lauren Coyle Rosen's poetry is a gorgeous song and journey towards relentless beauty, breathtaking light, generous spirit -- to truths that she stirs - provokes - in us." -- Krishna Lewis, poet and author, Harvard University "Lauren Coyle Rosen's poetry is lush with imagery. It's like entering into a lyrical landscape that leaves one looking into a smokeless mirror, a clear body of water, or a sky. This is vital poetry." -- J. Brent Crosson, professor, University of Texas at Austin, and author of Experiments with Power "Filled with vision and soul, these poems sing. They revel in language, recalling us to the beauty of words and the world they evoke." -- Christine Desan, Leo Gottlieb Professor, Harvard Law School, and author of Making Money: Coin, Currency, and the Coming of Capitalism "A beautiful collection bathing in Lauren's imagery ... bridges the physical and spiritual world with taut elegance and grace. She guides her reader through Earthly pleasures, through lemon cherry breezes and beyond ... to wonders extra-worldly and beyond ... to Universal forms. Erudite but open and accessible ... welcomes the reader's take, while singing in subtle rhymes and octet rhythms, keeping time with her moon's metronymic sway." -- Lady Booth Olson, lawyer and founder, LEB, LLC

The place (or absence) of God in Nietzsche’s thought remains central and controversial. Nietzsche’s proclamation of 'the death of God' is one of the most famous (and parodied) slogans in modern philosophy, seeming to encapsulate the nineteenth-century loss of religious faith in the affirmation that God has "turned out to be our oldest lie" and yet the nature of Nietzsche’s own ‘theology’ is far from clear. This volume engages with Nietzsche’s arguments about God, theology, and religion. The volume extends the discussion to an engagement of Nietzsche with alternative models of God, with ancient Greek religions, and with discussions of diversity (race, class, gender, sex) in dis/conjunction with religion. The chapters examine Nietzsche’s genealogy of religion and his claims about the place of God and theology in the history of Western thought ("that faith of the Christians, which was also Plato’s faith"), as well as his engagements with alternative conceptions of God. The volume also examines the historical and contemporary reception of Nietzsche’s arguments about God by religious and non-religious thinkers, asking to what extent Nietzsche’s philosophy of God speaks to the challenges of today's globalized philosophy and religion.

Apollo's Angels is a major new history of classical ballet. It begins in the courts of Europe, where ballet was an aspect of aristocratic etiquette and a political event as much as it was an art. The story takes the reader from the sixteenth century through to our own time, from Italy and France to Britain, Denmark, Russia and contemporary America. The reader learns how ballet reflected political and cultural upheavals, how dance and dancers were influenced by the Renaissance and French Classicism, by Revolution and Romanticism, by Expressionism and Bolshevism, Modernism and the Cold War. Homans shows how and why 'the steps' were never just the steps: they were a set of beliefs and a way of life. She takes the reader into the lives of dancers and traces the formal evolution of technique, choreography and performance. Her book ends by looking at the contemporary crisis in ballet now that 'the masters are dead and gone' and offers a passionate plea for the centrality of classical dance in our civilization. Apollo's Angels is a book with broad popular appeal: beautifully written and illustrated, it is essential reading for anyone interested in history, culture and art.

Apollo was a god who seemed to be skilled at everything except love. He was the god of music and light, as well as a teacher of medicine. He told of the future and even transformed himself into a dolphin. As the son of the powerful Zeus, and a twin to the goddess Artemis, Apollo spent much of his time chasing the things he wanted. The one thing that always seemed to get away, however, was the woman he loved. One woman was turned into a tree just as he reached her, while another was murdered at his command for falling in love with another. Apollo played an important part in the Trojan War. A series of sports competitions, known as the Pythian Games, was held every four years to honor him.

The fifteen essays, written by such eminent scholars as Derrida, Heidegger, Deleuze, Klossowski, and Blanchot, focus on the Nietzschean concepts of the Will to Power, the Overman, and the Eternal Return, discuss Nietzsche's style, and deal with the religious implications of his ideas. Taken together they provide an indispensable foil to the interpretations available in most current American writing.

Great Britain is changing, and so is Europe. The aim of this book, therefore, is to reflect upon the processes of (re)creation of art and literature within and against the backdrop of the shifting paradigms of the world as we know it. At a time when the political relations between Great Britain, Europe and the rest of the world are being redefined, this book examines the (de)construction of modern identities through the (de)codification of classical and contemporary mythologies.

This is a reader's guide to Conrad's novel Heart of Darkness as art, not as a page-turner but as art. As he has done with other works of Conrad, Anderson traces Conrad's art in a line-by-line analysis of most of this short novel. Anderson traces the unifying theme of the novel to Nietzsche's ideas in The Birth of Tragedy. Nietzsche interpreted ancient Greek tragedy as a reflection of Dionysian and Apollinian life experiencesof the Greek audience. Apollo was a Greek god of the higher orders of civilization and the civilized restraint and control that is necessary for getting along with others. Dionysus, on the other hand, was agod of nature and fertility and is associated with unrestrained, orgiastic worship. This author shows how Conrad used the contrast between the Apollinian and Dionysian to structure the form and content of the novel: how the contrast holds together the important artistic decisions made by Conrad; how Conrad midwived the rebirth of ancient Greek tragedy as the Congo tragedy-the rape of the Congo by Europeans in the late 19th century; and how this could have happened-how the psyches of the Europeans unraveled in the Congo jungle. In Conrad's rendition, the unrestrained competitive and hostile Dionysian life forces at the heart of nature not only power the teeming jungle but also lurk in the inherited instincts of mankind. The European search for ivory in the Congo brought these primitive instincts to the surface, out of their holes like serpents with venom of a mixture of desire and hate. The high ground of the novel is an irony-in the Congo clothes do not make the man. The European exploiters dressed in the very proper tropical whites are savage in behavior while naked man-eaters are restrained in behavior. As with Nietzsche before him, Conrad's approach anticipated central doctrines of Freud and Jung. Conrad's use of Nietzschean elements gives many modern readers a sense of dread or uneasiness, suggesting that the Nietzschean elements jostle important structures in our unconscious.
