Richard Wagner, Oliver Huckel

Maison d'édition: DigiCat

Synopsis

In "Parsifal," the anthology presents a profound exploration of mystical themes, delving into the realms of spirituality, purity, and enlightenment. The collection spans an array of literary styles, incorporating lyrical poetry, intricate prose, and dramatic narratives that reflect the rich tapestry of human experiences. Amidst these diverse voices, certain pieces stand out for their evocative and transformative qualities, illuminating the timeless quest for redemption and inner peace. The anthology draws upon a literary context steeped in philosophical and theological reflection, offering readers an engaging and multifaceted experience. The contributors, Richard Wagner and Oliver Huckel, bring their distinct cultural and intellectual backgrounds to the anthology, enhancing its thematic cohesion. Wagner's renowned operatic genius offers a compelling foundation of mythic and symbolic narratives, while Huckel's translation and interpretive flair situate these works within a broader literary and spiritual landscape. Together, they bridge the literary movement of Romanticism with existential inquiry, providing a continuum that reflects the ethos and aspirations of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Their collective contributions invite readers to ponder the convergence of music, literature, and spirituality. This anthology beckons readers to immerse themselves in a rich dialogue of ideas and narratives that transcend temporal boundaries. By traversing varied perspectives and literary traditions, "Parsifal" offers an expansive educational experience, granting insight into humanity's eternal search for meaning. It challenges and enthralls, making it an indispensable acquisition for those yearning for a deeper understanding of the spiritual and the sublime. As such, this work is recommended not only for its artistic merit but also for its ability to provoke thought and inspire transformative reflection.

Robert Shaw - An Actor's Life on...

Christopher Shaw Myers

"Go for the Jaws, stay for the Shaws." —Nat Segaloff, author of The Exorcist Legacy 
 
 
 
Robert Shaw unforgettably commanded attention as the weathered seaman Captain Quint in the blockbuster sensation, Jaws. But what came before and after that landmark film is as dramatic as the hunt for the great white shark itself. 
 
 
 
Capturing the many facets of the vibrant, generous, and sometimes polarizing man is his nephew, Christopher, who explores the forces that shaped a dynamic personality—including Robert's indomitable mother, his deeply troubled father, and his activist sister, Joanna, with whom Robert shared an unbreakable bond. Out of the traumatic events of their childhood in the Orkney Islands and Cornwall, Mrs. Shaw pushed her children to pursue their dreams. For Robert, that dream was acting and writing. 
 
 
 
Despite a storied career on the British and American stage—as both performer and playwright—and a string of hit films including From Russia with Love, A Man for All Seasons, The Sting, and The Taking of Pelham One Two Three, international celebrity eluded Robert . . . until he was summoned to star in "a little horror film" called Jaws.

Barry Pain

Barry Eric Odell Pain was born at 3 Sydney Street in Cambridge on 28th September 1864. He was one of 4 children. 
He was educated at Sedbergh School and then Corpus Christi College, Cambridge. 
In 1889, Cornhill Magazine published his short story ‘The Hundred Gates’.  This opened the way for Pain to advance his literary career on several fronts. He became a contributor to Punch and The Speaker, as well as joining the staff of both the Daily Chronicle and Black and White.  
Pain was also a noted and prominent contributor to The Granta and from 1896 to 1928 a regular contributor to the Windsor Magazine. 
It is often said that Pain was discovered by Robert Louis Stevenson, who compared his work to that of Guy de Maupassant.  It’s an apt comparison. Pain was a master of disturbing prose but was also able to inject parody and light comedy into many of his works.  A simple premise could in his hands suddenly expand into a world very real but somehow emotionally fraught and on the very edge of darkness. 
Barry Pain died on 5th May 1928 in Bushey, Hertfordshire.
