philosophy of modern song bob dylan

The Philosophy of Modern Song is Bob Dylan's first book of new writing since 2004's Chronicles: Volume One - and since winning the Nobel Prize for Literature in 2016. Dylan, who began working on the book in 2010, offers a masterclass on the art and craft of songwriting. He writes over 60 essays focusing on songs by other artists, spanning from Stephen Foster to Elvis Costello, and in between ranging from Hank Williams to Nina Simone. He analyses what he calls the trap of easy rhymes, breaks down how the addition of a single syllable can diminish a song and even explains how bluegrass relates to heavy metal. These essays are written in Dylan's unique prose. They are mysterious and mercurial, poignant and profound, and often laugh-out-loud funny. And while they are ostensibly about music, they are really meditations and reflections on the human condition. Running throughout the book are nearly 150 carefully curated photos as well as a series of dream-like riffs that, taken together, resemble an epic poem and add to the work's transcendence. In 2020, with the release of his outstanding album Rough and Rowdy Ways, Dylan became the first artist to have an album hit the Billboard Top 40 in each decade since the 1960s. The Philosophy of Modern Song contains much of what he has learned about his craft in all those years and, like everything that Dylan does, it is a momentous artistic achievement.

The Philosophy of Modern Song is Bob Dylan’s first book of new writing since 2004’s Chronicles: Volume One—and since winning the Nobel Prize for Literature in 2016. Dylan, who began working on the book in 2010, offers his extraordinary insight into the nature of popular music. He writes over sixty essays focusing on songs by other artists, spanning from Stephen Foster to Elvis Costello, and in between ranging from Hank Williams to Nina Simone. He analyzes what he calls the trap of easy rhymes, breaks down how the addition of a single syllable can diminish a song, and even explains how bluegrass relates to heavy metal.

První kniha Boba Dylana od jeho memoárů nazvaných Kroniky I a vydaných v roce 2004 a zároveň i jeho první kniha od získání Nobelovy ceny za literaturu v roce 2016. V šestašedesáti koncentrovaných textech píše Dylan o skladbách jiných umělců, Little Richardem či Rayem Charlesem počínaje, Ninou Simone či The Clash konče, přičemž se od triviálních konstatování a dylanovsky poťouchlých žertíků odráží k zásadním postřehům o povaze populární hudby. Analyzuje to, čemu říká past jednoduchých rýmů, rozebírá, jak přidání jediné slabiky může píseň oslabit, a dokonce vysvětluje, jak bluegrass souvisí s heavy metalem. Jeho psaní je tajuplné, rtuťovité, místy neproniknutelné a často nesmírně vtipné, a třebaže zdánlivě pojednává jen o hudbě, nabízí vlastně pronikavé zamyšlení o stavu člověka. Kniha obsahuje i sto padesát pečlivě vybraných fotografií a ilustrací, které pozoruhodně přispívají k celkovému účinku díla.

In 2016 it was announced that Bob Dylan had sold his personal archive to the George Kaiser Foundation in Tulsa, Oklahoma, reportedly for $22 million. As the boxes started to arrive, the Foundation asked Clinton Heylin - author of the acclaimed Bob Dylan: Behind the Shades and ''perhaps the world''s authority on all things Dylan'' (Rolling Stone) - to assess the material they had been given. What he found in Tulsa - as well as what he gleaned from other papers he had recently been given access to by Sony and the Dylan office - so changed his understanding of the artist, especially of his creative process, that he became convinced that a whole new biography was needed. It turns out that much of what previous biographers - Dylan himself included - have said is wrong; often as not, a case of, Print the Legend.This is the second instalment of the definitive biography (following A Restless Hungry Feeling) of one contemporary culture''s most iconic and mysterious figures - musical revolutionary, Nobel Prize-winner, chart-topping recording artist.Clinton Heylin''s meticulously researched, all-encompassing and consistently revelatory account of these fascinating early years is the closest we will ever get to a definitive life of an artist who has been the lodestar of popular culture for six decades.

BOB DYLAN: MIXING UP THE MEDICINE is an unprecedented glimpse into the creative life of one of America’s most groundbreaking, influential and enduring artists. 'The Dylan Center in Tulsa offers a read as endlessly fascinating, as vital to the American story, as its subject himself... Whether you have inhaled this kind of information for decades, as I have, or you’re a neophyte who only knows him as the author of Blowin’ in the Wind or Like a Rolling Stone, Bob Dylan: Mixing Up the Medicine may fill you with as much surprise and delight as I got from it.' -The Guardian 'Mixing Up the Medicine, the first publication from the Bob Dylan Center in Tulsa, brings the reader closer to the Dylan godhead than perhaps any publication since Chronicles. - Vanity Fair's 'Our 20 Favorite Books of 2023' Several years ago, a treasure trove containing some 6,000 original Bob Dylan manuscripts was revealed to exist. Their destination? Tulsa, Oklahoma. The documents, as essential as they are intriguing—draft lyrics, notebooks, and diverse ephemera— comprise one of the most important cultural archives in the modern world. Along with countless still and moving images and thousands of hours of riveting studio and live recordings, this priceless collection now resides at The Bob Dylan Center in Tulsa, Oklahoma, just steps away from the archival home of Dylan’s early hero, Woody Guthrie. Nearly all the materials preserved at The Bob Dylan Center are unique, previously unavailable, and, in many cases, even previously unknown. As the official publication of The Bob Dylan Center, BOB DYLAN: MIXING UP THE MEDICINE is the first wide-angle look at the Dylan archive, a book that promises to be of vast interest to both the Nobel Laureate’s many musical fans as well as a broader cultural audience. Edited by Mark Davidson and Parker Fishel, BOB DYLAN: MIXING UP THE MEDICINE focuses a close look at the full scope of Dylan’s working life, particularly from the dynamic perspective of his ongoing and shifting creative processes—his earliest home recordings in the mid-1950s right up through Rough and Rowdy Ways (2020), his most recent studio recording, and into the present day. The centerpiece of BOB DYLAN: MIXING UP THE MEDICINE is a carefully curated selection of over 600 images including never-before-circulated draft lyrics, writings, photographs, drawings and other ephemera from the Dylan archive. With an introductory essay by Sean Wilentz and epilogue by Douglas Brinkley, the book features a surprising range of distinguished writers, artists and musicians, including Joy Harjo, Greil Marcus, Michael Ondaatje, Gregory Pardlo, Amanda Petrusich, Tom Piazza, Lee Ranaldo, Alex Ross, Ed Ruscha, Lucy Sante, Greg Tate and many others. After experiencing the collection firsthand in Tulsa, each of the authors was asked to select a single item that beguiled or inspired them. The resulting essays, written specifically for this volume, shed new light on not only Dylan’s creative process, but also their own. 'BOB DYLAN: MIXING UP THE MEDICINE is the magnum opus every Bob Dylan fan has been waiting for since the 60s and will be a landmark publication for the ages.‘A lavishly illustrated collection of archival treasures… The artifacts here are full of history… Luminous.’ – New York Times Book Review ‘The bible for Dylanologists around the world.’ – Le Monde ‘This first major book publication by the Dylan Archive makes a large part of the books published about Dylan superfluous.’ – Die Welt ‘A feast. This tour de force takes you page by page through the many decades of Dylan World.’ – Todd Freston, founder of MTV BOOK OF THE YEAR ‘This book of treasures is a catalogue of beautiful ephemera that functions as a living memorial to its subject, while also illustrating the depths of Dylan’s creativity.’ – Uncut ‘If there is anything new to be discovered about Bob Dylan, you can probably find it in The Bob Dylan Centre… Now the Bob Dylan Centre is publishing its first book, essentially the archive in miniature: Bob Dylan: Mixing up the Medicine. It is a 608-page tome examining over 1000 images and objects culled from the collection by archivists and curators Mark Davidson and Parker Fishel.’ - The Telegraph

WINNER OF THE NOBEL PRIZE IN LITERATUREThe celebrated first memoir from arguably the most influential singer-songwriter in the country, Bob Dylan.'I'd come from a long ways off and had started a long ways down. But now destiny was about to manifest itself. I felt like it was looking right at me and nobody else.' So writes Bob Dylan in Chronicles: Volume One, his remarkable book exploring critical junctures in his life and career. Through Dylan’s eyes and open mind, we see Greenwich Village, circa 1961, when he first arrives in Manhattan. Dylan’s New York is a magical city of possibilities - smoky, nightlong parties; literary awakenings; transient loves and unbreakable friendships. Elegiac observations are punctuated by jabs of memories, penetrating and tough. With the book’s side trips to New Orleans, Woodstock, Minnesota, and points west, Chronicles: Volume One is an intimate and intensely personal recollection of extraordinary times. By turns revealing, poetical, passionate, and witty, Chronicles: Volume One is a mesmerizing window on Bob Dylan’s thoughts and influences. Dylan’s voice is distinctively American: generous of spirit, engaged, fanciful, and rhythmic. Utilizing his unparalleled gifts of storytelling and the exquisite expressiveness that are the hallmarks of his music, Bob Dylan turns Chronicles: Volume One into a poignant reflection on life, and the people and places that helped shape the man and the art.'Chronicles stunned everyone . . . [it's] clear, apparently frank, unremittingly serious about his musical influences and exquisitely written. It is, in fact, a masterpiece' Sunday Times'Entertaining and surprisingly deprecating... The book's structure is elegant . . . Chronicles is tautly written, vividly cinematic, and funny . . . a courageous little book' Financial Times 'There is something on every page, in every paragraph, that demands attention . . . In rock and roll terms, this book is like discovering the lost diaries of Shakespeare. It may be the most extraordinarily intimate autobiography by a 20th-century legend' Daily Telegraph

From the day that Bobby Zimmerman first turned on the radio in his parents' home in Hibbing, he'd had a pretty good idea that big things were happening.When Bob Dylan arrived in New York one winter morning in 1961 he was a complete unknown. His music and spirit would go on to capture the hearts and minds of a generation, but what no one knew then was that, like so many before him, Dylan was concealing his Jewish origins.Covering the same turbulent years as the hit film starring Timothee Chalamet, this entertaining biography offers new insights into Bob Dylan's early career.For Harry Freedman, Dylan's roots are the key to grasping how this young musician burst onto the scene and reinvented not only himself, but popular music. The instinct for escape and reinvention has defined Dylan's long career.Freedman traces the heady atmosphere of the 1960s and the folk-rock revolution spearheaded by Dylan.Right up until the moment in 1966 when Dylan stepped out onto the stage and went electric - exploring how his musical decisions, genius for reinvention and his Jewishness go inescapably hand in hand.

Kniha - autor Bob Dylan, 1542 stran, česky, brožovaná bez přebalu lesklá Bob Dylan patří k největším hudebním, kulturním a vlastně i společenským ikonám dvacátého a jednadvacátého století – na jeho písně odkazovali Beatles i Rolling Stones, David Bowie, Leonard Cohen či Tom Waits, ale také třeba Salman Rushdie, Allen Ginsberg, Václav Havel či Barack Obama. Nemá snad ani smysl vypočítávat všechna ocenění, jichž se Dylanovi během jeho zcela mimořádné tvůrčí dráhy dostalo – od mnoha cen Grammy přes Oscara, Zlatý glóbus, Pulitzerovu cenu, záplavu čestných doktorátů až po Nobelovu cenu za literaturu; postačí konstatovat, že vydal osmatřicet autorských alb, prodal přes sto dvacet milionů desek a jeho písně tvoří samotné srdce kánonu současné populární hudby.

Point Blank (Quick Studies) is the first major publication of Bob Dylan’s artwork in over a decade, featuring nearly 100 never-before-seen drawings.Bob Dylan is a master at telling stories, creating moods and provoking feelings—not only in music and the written word but also in visual art, which he has been creating since the 1960s. This publication of his art features nearly 100 black-and-white drawings that were completed between 2021 and 2022 and served as the basis for his latest exhibition—also titled Point Blank—at London’s Halcyon Gallery in early 2025. The works vary between portraits, still lifes, and landscapes: roller-skating lovers, a suit of armor, a suspension bridge, a karaoke singer, a roll of Scotch tape, a Parisian canal, a man with a crooked smile. Accompanying the artwork are short prose vignettes written by Eddie Gorodetsky, Jackie Hamilton and Lucy Sante that further enhance the images’ evocativeness. Dylan’s ability to find beauty and mystery in the seemingly mundane is one of his great gifts—and the gift he’s continually given to the public over the years, including now with Point Blank.

Sir Anthony Kenny''s engaging new history of Western philosophy now advances into the modern era. The Rise of Modern Philosophy is the fascinating story of the emergence, from the early sixteenth to the early nineteenth century, of great ideas and intellectual systems that shaped modern thought. Kenny introduces us to some of the world''s most original and influential thinkers, and shows us the way to an understanding of their famous works. The thinkers we meet include René Descartes, traditionally seen as the founder of modern philosophy; the great British philosophers Hobbes, Locke, and Hume; and the towering figure of Immanuel Kant, who perhaps more than any other made philosophy what it is today. In the first three chapters Kenny tells the story chronologically: his lively accessible narrative brings the philosophers to life and fills in the historical and intellectual background to their work. It is ideal as the first thing to read for someone new to the history of modern philosophy. In the seven chapters that follow Kenny looks closely at each of the main areas of philosophical exploration in this period: knowledge and understanding; the nature of the physical universe; metaphysics (the most fundamental questions there are about existence); mind and soul; the nature and content of morality; political philosophy; and God. A selection of intriguing and beautiful illustrations offer a vivid evocation of the human and social side of philosophy. Anyone who is interested in how our understanding of ourselves and our world developed will find this a book a pleasure to read.

Dylan Sheltonovi rovněž umožnil hovořit s rodiči, bratrem a přáteli a poskytl mu řadu rozhovorů. Shelton knihu dokončil až po dvaceti letech. Poprvé vyšla v roce 1986 v mnohem kratší podobě, než autor zamýšlel. Editorka současné verze Elizabeth Thompson jeho původní dlouhý text zveřejnila v roce 2011 u příležitosti Dylanových sedmdesátých narozenin. Dnešní podoba knihy s velkým množstvím fotografií je kratší a popisuje nejen počátky Dylanovy kariéry, ale také analyzuje jeho texty, desky, vývoj, proměny i osobnost.

Legendární americký písničkář Bob Dylan vzpomíná na počátky své kariéry, kdy v roce 1961 přišel do New Yorku. Bravurním, vtipným a osobitým stylem, stejně okouzlujícím a magnetizujícím, jako jsou texty jeho písní či barva jeho hlasu, vzpomíná autor na Manhattan a magickou čtvrť umělců Greenwich Village, na New Orleans, Woodstock nebo Minnesotu. Dylanovýma očima a skrze jeho břitké výroky získáváme obraz zakouřeného, zhýralého a neustálého živého a tepajícího New Yorku, místa, které bylo možností pro nové talenty, v literatuře i hudbě, kde vznikaly hudební kluby a scény, zkrátka kde bylo možné cokoli.

Rethinking Philosophy in Light of the Bible analyzes the ideas that are central to the philosophy of Kant, Hegel, and Kierkegaard in order to show that they are biblical in origin, both ontologically and historically. Brayton Polka argues that Schopenhauer has an altogether false conception of the fundamental ideas of the Bible—creation, the Fall of Adam and Eve, and covenantal love—and of Christianity, which leaves his philosophy irredeemably contradictory, as he himself acknowledges. The aim, then, is to show that our modern values, the values that constitute modernity, are biblical in origin. It is only when we come to understand that modernity is biblical from the beginning and that the Bible is modern unto the end that we are able to overcome the opposition, so evident today, between philosophy and theology, between reason and faith, and between the secular and the religious. Polka makes central the distinction that Kierkegaard draws between Christianity and Christendom: Christianity represents the coming into historical existence of the single individual; Christendom represents Christian values that are rationalized in pagan terms. As Kierkegaard shows us, if God has always existed eternally, then he has never existed eternally, then he has never come into historical existence for the single individual. The distinction between Christianity and Christendom is the distinction not between faith and reason, but between truth and idolatry. While theology and philosophy each represent the truth of Christianity, Schopenhauer’s idolatrous concepts of faith, no less than of reason, represent Christendom.

Žijící legenda americké hudební a kulturní publicistiky Greil Marcus vypráví příběh Boba Dylana prostřednictvím jeho šesti autorských písní a jedné převzaté lidovky. Představuje umělcovu šedesátiletou tvorbu a její kořeny v americké lidové hudbě a historii a zkoumá i Dylanův obrovský vliv na světovou uměleckou scénu. A činí to natolik zevrubně a fundovaně, že nic podobného v běžné biografii rozhodně nenajdeme. Jak slavné folkové songy z počátku Dylanovy tvorby inspirovaly protestní výtvarné umělce spojené s hnutím Black Lives Matter? Kudy vede linka mezi dávnou baladou o zavraždění černošské servírky a tvorbou avantgardní performerky Laurie Andersonové? Proč se Dylan ve zralém věku po padesátce vrátil ke starým lidovkám a několik let je systematicky nahrával? A co znamená defilé slavných i neznámých historických postav a písňových úryvků v songu Murder Most Foul? Připravte se na fascinující jízdu časem a prostorem, na níž se z New Yorku šedesátých let přesouváme tu do horského zapadákova v Severní Karolině na počátku dvacátého století, pak zase na avantgardní elektronickou scénu v reaganovské éře nebo do washingtonského Kapitolu v lednu 2021, kde právě probíhá útok fanatického davu na samotné srdce americké demokracie.

Karen O''Brien-Kop''s introduction to the Yogasutra highlights its status as a significant work of philosophy. Approaching the Yogasutra as living philosophy, this book elucidates philosophical conceptions of yoga, recognises the logical structure the sutras follow and explains the rules and principles that have sustained Patañjali’s system of thought for centuries. Moving beyond standard interpretations of Patañjali''s text and commentary as an aphoristic practice manual, O''Brien-Kop uses branches of philosophy to read the Yogasutra. Covering reality, self, ethics, language and knowledge, Patañjali’s philosophies come to the fore. The book introduces his reasoned positions on dual and non­dual metaphysics, the relationship between mind and body, the qualities of consciousness, the nature of freedom, and how to live ethically. Carefully-selected extracts from the primary text are translated for those unfamiliar with Sanskrit and commentaries run throughout. A glossary provides definitions of key concepts with useful translations. Accessible and up-to-date, this introduction broadens our understanding of Indian philosophical thought and explains why the Yogasutra deserves to be read alongside Parmenides’ ‘On Nature’ and Plato’s Phaedo as a classic of world philosophy.

Bertrand Russell’s study of the philosopher and mathematician Gottfried Leibniz is one of his earliest books, providing a fascinating glimpse of his philosophical brilliance. It remains one of the most important books on this polymathic seventeenth-century thinker and the only book Russell wrote about a major philosopher.Written when Russell was only in his late twenties, it goes far beyond a mere exposition of Leibniz''s thought. Celebrated for his invention of the differential calculus and a major figure in the development of rationalist philosophy, Leibniz is hailed by many as the last universal genius. Russell argues that the tension between Leibniz''s theological writings for the Hanoverian royalty on the one hand and his philosophical work on the other obscures, in Russell''s opinion, Leibniz''s greatest gift to philosophy: the view that logic is the start of all philosophy.Exploring Leibniz''s contributions to epistemology, substance, space and time, the soul and body, and the existence of God, Russell pushes philosophy and logical thought in bold new directions. It remains a vital work in Russell''s oeuvre and a landmark study of a major philosopher.This Routledge Classics Edition has a new Foreword by Richard T. W. Arthur.

An engaging account of how Shaftesbury revolutionized Western philosophyAt the turn of the eighteenth century, Anthony Ashley Cooper, the third Earl of Shaftesbury (1671–1713), developed the first comprehensive philosophy of beauty to be written in English. It revolutionized Western philosophy. In A Philosophy of Beauty, Michael Gill presents an engaging account of how Shaftesbury’s thought profoundly shaped modern ideas of nature, religion, morality, and art—and why, despite its long neglect, it remains compelling today. Before Shaftesbury’s magnum opus, Charactersticks of Men, Manners, Opinions, Times (1711), it was common to see wilderness as ugly, to associate religion with fear and morality with unpleasant restriction, and to dismiss art as trivial or even corrupting. But Shaftesbury argued that nature, religion, virtue, and art can all be truly beautiful, and that cherishing and cultivating beauty is what makes life worth living. And, as Gill shows, this view had a huge impact on the development of natural religion, moral sense theory, aesthetics, and environmentalism. Combining captivating historical details and flashes of humor, A Philosophy of Beauty not only rediscovers and illuminates a fascinating philosopher but also offers an inspiring reflection about the role beauty can play in our lives.
