50s: The Story of a Decade

Random House Publishing Group. Paperback. Pp: 784. This engrossing anthology assembles classic New Yorker pieces from a complex era enshrined in the popular imagination as the decade of poodle skirts and Cold War paranoia"featuring contributions from Philip Roth, John Updike, Nadine Gordimer, and Adrienne Rich, along with fresh analysis of the 1950s by some of today`s finest writers. The New Yorker was there in real time, chronicling the tensions and innovations that lay beneath the era`s placid surface. In this thrilling volume, classic works of reportage, criticism, and fiction are complemented by new contributions from the magazine`s present all-star lineup of writers. The magazine`s commitment to overseas reporting flourished in the 1950s, leading to important dispatches from East Berlin, the Gaza Strip, and Cuba during the rise of Castro. Closer to home, the fight to break barriers and establish a new American identity led to both illuminating coverage, as in a portrait of Thurgood Marshall at an NAACP meeting in Atlanta, and trenchant commentary, as in E. B. White`s blistering critique of Senator Joe McCarthy. The arts scene is recalled in critical writing rarely reprinted, including Wolcott Gibbs on My Fair Lady, Anthony West on Invisible Man, and Philip Hamburger on Candid Camera. Also featured are great early works from Philip Roth and Nadine Gordimer, as well as startling poems by Theodore Roethke and Anne Sexton, among others. Completing the panoply are insightful and entertaining new pieces by present-day New Yorker contributors examining the 1950s through contemporary eyes. The result is a vital portrait of American culture as only one magazine in the world could do it.Including contributions by Elizabeth Bishop �"¢ Truman Capote �"¢ John Cheever �"¢ Roald Dahl �"¢ Janet Flanner �"¢ Nadine Gordimer �"¢ A.

The Accidental Species. Misunderstandings of Human Evolution

The University of Chicago Press. Paperback. Pp: 217. The idea of a missing link between humanity and our animal ancestors predates evolution and popular science. The author takes aim at this misleading notion, arguing that it reflects a profound misunderstanding of how evolution works and, when applied to the evolution of our own species, supports mistaken ideas about our own place in the universe.

The Aesthetic Contract. Statutes of Art and Intellectual Work in Modernity

Stanford University Press, 1997. Paperback. Pp: 319. Ambitious in scope and innovative in concept, this book offers an overview and critique of the conventions surrounding artistic creativity and intellectual endeavor since the outset of "the broader modernity", which the author sees as beginning with the decline of feudalism and the Church. As a work of intellectual history, it suggests that art and the conventions associated with the artistic constitute a secular institution that has supplanted pre-Reformation theology. From the perspective of the "subject," modernity has entailed a heightened sense of individuation, moral conflict, and pervasive loss and disaster. Yet the pitfalls that have earmarked personal experience have taken on positive value in an artistic enterprise that aspires to be a salutary replacement for externally imposed theological dogmas. Beginning with Luther, Calvin, and Shakespeare and culminating with the Kantian notion of the artist as an "original genius," the author reconstructs the steps by which art and creative activity were installed as the redemptive values of a modernity in which human beings were forced to define knowledge and establish authority according to their own devices. In the process, the author reads passages from Plato, Proust, Donne, Locke, Berkeley, Hume, Kleist, Rousseau, Melville, Wittgenstein, as well as Benjamin, as well as the graphic works of Holbein, Dürer, Mondrian, and Rothko. As a work of critical theory, The Aesthetic Contract posits an alternative model to Kant's "original genius." The author explores an understanding of art powered by the notion of the aesthetic contract, in which artists and intellectuals choose to operate within the parameters of certain explicit experiments until the contractual clauses that delimit these endeavors lose their currency or validity. As an intellectual analog to Rousseau's social contract, the aesthetic contract has allowed the modern artist to address issues of knowledge, authority, and experience once thought to fall within the domain of arbitrary, remote, and inaccessible agencies.

Allereerst niet schaden. Verhalen van een hersenchirurg

Nieuw Amsterdam, 2014. Paperback. Pp: 288. Henry Marsh, een van de meest vooraanstaande Britse neurochirurgen, laat zien wat het betekent om voor God te spelen in kwesties van leven of dood. Hij gunt ons een zeldzame blik op het intense drama van de operatiekamer, de complexiteit van de hersenen en het botte instrument dat het mes van de chirurg daarbij vergeleken is. Dit boek gaat over de pijnlijke dilemma's rond elke hersenoperatie - voor de patiënt, de familie en de chirurg. 'Allereerst niet schaden' is ook een persoonlijk verslag van een ontdekkingstocht naar de feilbaarheid van de arts, de grenzen van de geneeskunde en de universele behoefte aan hoop als we geconfronteerd worden met de moeilijkste besluiten in het leven.
