Cultural Seeds: Essays on the Work of Nick Cave
Nick Cave is now widely recognized as a songwriter, musician, novelist, screenwriter, curator, critic, actor and performer. From the band, The Boys Next Door (1976-1980), to the spoken-word recording, The Secret Life of the Love Song (1998), to the recently acclaimed screenplay of The Proposition (2005) and the Grinderman project (2008), Cave's career spans thirty years and has produced a comprehensive (and sometimes controversial) body of work that has shaped contemporary alternative culture. Despite intense media interest in Cave, there have been remarkably few comprehensive appraisals of his work, its significance and its impact on understandings of popular culture. In addressing this abs...
Boy on Fire
An intensely beautiful, profound and poetic biography of the formative years of the dark prince of rock 'n' roll, Boy on Fire is Nick Cave's creation story, a portrait of the artist first as a boy, then as a young man. A deeply insightful work which charts his family, friends, influences, milieu and, most of all, his music, it reveals how Nick Cave shaped himself into the extraordinary artist he would become. A powerful account of a singular, uncompromising artist, Boy on Fire is also a vivid and evocative rendering of a time and place, from the fast-running dark rivers and ghost gums of country-town Australia to the torn wallpaper, sticky carpet and manic energy of the nascent punk scene which hit staid 1970s Melbourne like an atom bomb. Boy on Fire is a stunning biographical achievement.

Features previously unpublished photos from the band's private archives.

"And God is never far away"
Diese Dissertation untersucht das Werk des Künstlers Nick Cave (*1957), der vor allem als Singer/Songwriter und Schriftsteller tätig ist, in kulturtheologischer Perspektive. Das Spannende an und in dessen vielfältigem und weitgehend unerforschten Werk ist besonders seine "Laientheologie" (Harald Schroeter-Wittke), die sich in reichen biblischen Bezügen und theologischen Im- wie Explikationen dokumentiert und hier auf ihre Spezifika hin untersucht wird. Es geht in dieser Dissertation darum, die folgende doppelte Grundthese zu verifizieren:1. Nick Caves Werk enthält eine eigene, spezifische (Laien- )Theologie. 2. Diese ist als spannende Theologie zu verstehen, differenziert darzustellen u...
