Only the Nails Remain
Only the Nails Remain: Scenes from the Balkan Wars is a chronicle of poet and critic Christopher Merrill's ten war-time journeys to the Balkans from the years 1992 through 1996. At once a travelogue, a book of war reportage, and a biography of the imagination under siege, this beautifully written and personal narrative takes the reader along on the author's journeys to all the provinces and republics of the former Yugoslavia—Bosnia-Herzegovina, Croatia, Kosovo, Macedonia, Montenegro, Serbia, Slovenia, and Vojvodina—as well as to Albania, Austria, Bulgaria, Greece, Hungary, Italy, and Turkey. His journeys provide the narrative structure for an exploration of the roles and responsibility o...
Small Places, Operatic Issues
This book details original case studies that represent five different social positions or characterisations of opera: namely, opera as social showcase from Bayreuth (1748), social distinction from Ljubljana (1887), social conflict from Brno (1920), social status from Mantua (1999) and social manifest from Belgrade (2005). These positions, which indicate opera’s social diversity in local, regional, provincial, and peripheral terms, as well as its social mutuality in international, transnational, global, or metropolitan terms, generally promote the idea of opera as a social venue, cultural practice, theatrical scene, lyrical site, musical place, artistic experience, or transgenerational phen...

Nove razvojne perspektive
Četrta knjiga v zbirki v prvi vrsti obravnava razvoj podeželja. Med številnimi temami, ki so jih predstavili sodelujoči avtorji, še posebej izstopajo štiri: kulturna dediščina, turizem, (ekološko) kmetijstvo in okolje. Uspešni in poučni primeri razvojnih praks na podeželju imajo ne glede na področje skupno točko. To je aktivacija lokalnih skupnosti s pomočjo participativnega pristopa, bodisi na področju kulturnega turizma, socialnega podjetništva, upravljanja z vodnimi viri ali oživitve vaškega življenja. V knjigi so tudi širše teme, ki presegajo podeželski značaj: pojasnjevanje razvojnih razlik v Sloveniji, regionalne razlike v poklicni sestavi kot strukturni dejavnik slovenskega gospodarstva, vprašanje prožnosti prostorskih sistemov ter novosti na področju prikazovanja geostatistik. Zazrli smo se še v prihodnost − v pripravo strateških in programskih dokumentov za novo razvojno perspektivo 2014−2020.

Composer Genealogies
Throughout the western classical tradition, composers have influenced and been influenced by their students and teachers. Many musicians frequently add to their personal acclaim by naming their teachers and the lineage through which they were taught. Until now, the relationships between composers have remained uncataloged and understudied, but with enough research, it is possible to document entire schools of composition. Composer Genealogies: A Compendium of Composers, Their Teachers, and Their Students is the first volume to gather the genealogies of more than seventeen thousand classical composers in a single volume. Functioning as its own fully cross-referenced index, this volume lists composers and their dates, followed by their teachers and notable students. A short introduction presents the parameters by which composers were selected and provides a survey of the literature available for further study. Gathering records and information from reference books, university websites, obituaries, articles, composers’ websites, and even direct contact with some composers, Pfitzinger creates a valuable resource for music researchers, composers, and performers.
