Indian Classical Music and the Gramophone, 1900-1930

Indian Classical Music and the Gramophone, 1900-1930
Vikram Sampath, "Indian Classical Music and the Gramophone, 1900-1930 "
English | ISBN: 0367421321 | 2022 | 240 pages | PDF | 7 MB
In 1902 The Gramophone Company in London sent out recording experts on "expeditions" across the world to record voices from different cultures and backgrounds. All over India, it was women who embraced the challenge of overcoming numerous social taboos and aesthetic handicaps that came along with this nascent technology. Women who took the plunge and recorded largely belonged to the courtesan community, called tawaifs and devadasis, in North and South India, respectively. Recording brought with it great fame, brand recognition, freedom from exploitative patrons, and monetary benefits to the women singers. They were to become pioneers of the music industry in the Indian sub-continent. However, despite the pioneering role played by these women, their stories have largely been forgotten. Contemporaneous with the courtesan women adapting to recording technology was the anti-nautch campaign that sought to abolish these women from the performing space and brand them as common prostitutes. A vigorous renaissance and arts revival movement followed, leading to the creation of a new classical paradigm in both North Indian (Hindustani) and South Indian (Carnatic) classical music. This resulted in the standardization, universalization, and institutionalization of Indian classical music. This newly created classical paradigm impacted future recordings of The Gramophone Company in terms of a shift in genres and styles. Vikram Sampath sheds light on the role and impact of The Gramophone Company's early recording expeditions on Indian classical music by examining the phenomenon through a sociocultural, historical and musical lens. The book features the indefatigable stories of the women and their experiences in adapting to recording technology. The artists from across India featured are: Gauhar Jaan of Calcutta, Janki Bai of Allahabad, Zohra Bai of Agra, Malka Jaan of Agra, Salem Godavari, Bangalore Nagarathnamma, Coimbatore Thayi, Dhanakoti of Kanchipuram, Bai Sundarabai of Pune, and Husna Jaan of Banaras.

Immigrants Your Country Needs Them

Immigrants Your Country Needs Them
Philippe Legrain, "Immigrants: Your Country Needs Them"
English | 2007 | pages: 391 | ISBN: 0691134316 | PDF | 2,5 mb
Immigration divides our globalizing world like no other issue. We are swamped by illegal immigrants and infiltrated by terrorists, our jobs stolen, our welfare system abused, our way of life destroyed-or so we are told. At a time when National Guard units are deployed alongside vigilante Minutemen on the U.S.-Mexico border, where the death toll in the past decade now exceeds 9/11's, Philippe Legrain has written the first book about immigration that looks beyond the headlines. Why are ever-rising numbers of people from poor countries arriving in the United States, Europe, and Australia? Can we keep them out? Should we even be trying?

Illicit Trade Counterfeiting and Piracy and the Swedish Economy Making Sure Made in Sweden Always Is

Illicit Trade Counterfeiting and Piracy and the Swedish Economy Making Sure Made in Sweden Always Is
OECD, "Illicit Trade Counterfeiting and Piracy and the Swedish Economy Making Sure "Made in Sweden" Always Is"
English | 2019 | pages: 76 | ISBN: 9264163328 | PDF | 6,8 mb
The Swedish economy is innovative and rich in intellectual property (IP), with nearly every industry either producing or using IP. Swedish innovative industries are also export-dependent and very deeply integrated in the global economy, through active participation in global value chains. At the same time, the threats of counterfeiting and piracy are growing - and Sweden is vulnerable. This report measures the direct economic effects of counterfeiting on Swedish industry, government and consumers. It examines both the impact of the imports of fake products to Sweden and - more importantly - the impact of the global trade in fake products that infringe on the IP rights of Swedish innovative companies.

B. Brian Foster, "I Don't Like the Blues: Race, Place, and the Backbeat of Black Life"
English | ISBN: 1469660415 | 2020 | 193 pages | PDF | 2 MB
How do you love and not like the same thing at the same time? This was the riddle that met Mississippi writer B. Brian Foster when he returned to his home state to learn about Black culture and found himself hearing about the blues. One moment, Black Mississippians would say they knew and appreciated the blues. The next, they would say they didn't like it. For five years, Foster listened and asked: How? Why not? Will it ever change? This is the story of the answers to his questions.

Husserl and Mathematics

Husserl and Mathematics
Mirja Hartimo, "Husserl and Mathematics"
English | ISBN: 1108845770 | 2021 | 230 pages | PDF | 963 KB
Husserl and Mathematics explains the development of Husserl's phenomenological method in the context of his engagement in modern mathematics and its foundations. Drawing on his correspondence and other written sources, Mirja Hartimo details Husserl's knowledge of a wide range of perspectives on the foundations of mathematics, including those of Hilbert, Brouwer and Weyl, as well as his awareness of the new developments in the subject during the 1930s. Hartimo examines how Husserl's philosophical views responded to these changes, and offers a pluralistic and open-ended picture of Husserl's phenomenology of mathematics. Her study shows Husserl's phenomenology to be a method capable of both shedding light on and internally criticizing scientific practices and concepts.
