Summary

Galileo's O, Band III, ist in der Buchgeschichte ohne Vorbild. Ein Kreis von Spezialisten der Kunst-, Buch-, Wissenschafts-, Material- und Restaurierungsgeschichte korrigiert in diesem Werk die eigenen Ergebnisse der ersten beiden Bände. In deren Zentrum stand das New Yorker Exemplar von Galileis "Sternenboten" (Sidereus Nuncius) von 1610. Die Analyse war als Beispiel einer umfassenden Kooperation gedacht, und zahlreiche Ergebnisse sind nach wie vor gültig, doch das zentrale Objekt hat sich als Produkt einer internationalen Gruppe von Fälschern erwiesen. Indem BandIII die Chronologie und die Methoden dieser Entdeckung beschreibt, könnte er eine Art Wasserscheide im andauernden Wettstreit zwischen den immer feineren Methoden von Fälschern und den neuen Methoden darstellen, ihnen auf die Spur zu kommen. Das Buch ist schließlich auch ein Psychogramm von Spezialisten, die gleichsam gegen sich selbst forschen, um vergleichbare Irrtümer in Zukunft zu vermeiden.

    The Edinburgh Festival of those days was a much more accessible village... The ground rules were well enough understood. Everything about it was containable. The Fringe was the seed bed for talent and ran happily in step with its established elders and betters. They both knew their place.
    But then something equally remarkable was about to take place in the New Town of the city I knew and loved...
    The same year, Roddy Martine is born. In 1963 when, at the age of sixteen, he interviewed Sir Yehudi Menuhin and David Frost for an Edinburgh Festival magazine he edited and the following year, met Marlene Dietrich.
    Both Richard and Roddy have unique perspectives on the most remarkable international festival of the arts the world has ever known. They have witnessed its evolution over the years and are passionate believers in the power of creativity within everyone.
    In this fascinating book, Richard – the 2013 UK recipient of the Citizen of Europe medal – explores the original world vision of Sir John Falconer and Rudolph Bing and, with Roddy, recalls the highs and lows of The Edinburgh International Festival, The Fringe, Art, Book, Jazz and Television Festivals, and The Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo.
    Now in its eighth decade, can the Edinburgh Festival survive? Where do we go from here?

    Tommy Mottola discovered a passion for Latin music when he was a small child on the streets of the Bronx, where he fell in love with the energy and rhythm of the legendary Tito Puente. It was a love he would carry with him to this day.In A New America, Mottola explores the societal and cultural impact the Latino community and its music has had on America by sharing behind-the-scenes stories from his own life and his connection to the Latin sound throughout the decades-from his initial fascination with Latin music which started with Puente, to the mainstream success of Ritchie Valens, to the groove-laden guitar wizardry of Carlos Santana.Along the way, Mottola reveals heartfelt accounts of his longtime collaboration and friendship with Gloria Estefan and her husband Emilio, the meteoric rise and tragic end of Selena, and his orchestration of the Latin Explosion of the 1990s that launched mega-stars such as Jennifer Lopez, Ricky Martin, and Shakira.But A New America is more than a story about music and musicians. It is the story of a culture that continues to grow and influence America in all its aspects, and an irresistible sound that continues to move and inspire the nation.
