Touched by the sun : my friendship with Jackie
A chance encounter at a summer party on Martha's Vineyard blossomed into an improbable but enduring friendship between Simon and Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis. An intimate, vulnerable, and insightful portrait of the bond that grew between two iconic and starkly different American women, this work is a celebration of kinship in all its many forms.
With eclipse in sight, Carly Simon talks name-dropping Nova Scotia in You're So Vain
In her memoir, Boys In The Trees, she wrote that she included details about the man, such as owning a horse or a private jet. Simon has never been to Nova Scotia, but she has added incentive to visit the province — one of her two children moved here earlier this year. With mostly sunny skies expected, Nova Scotia will offer prime viewing points for Monday's eclipse, said CBC meteorologist Ryan Snoddon.
Zwischen Woodstock und Wohnzimmer: Joni Mitchell am Flügel
Die Antwort lautet:1 I'm going on down to Yasgur's farm I'm going to join in a rock 'n' roll band I'm going to camp out on the land And try an' get my soul free Sie markiert in mehrfacher Hinsicht einen Gegensatz zu Mitchells eigenem Lebensstil und ihrer Musik zu dieser Zeit und der Song ist „an idealised depiction of nostalgia for the festival and the era's utopian potential\"2. Musikalischer Ausdruck dieser Differenz zwischen dem „child of God\" und Mitchell ist, dass sie zwar in allen Lebenslagen, auf ihren Alben und auf der Bühne auch Gitarre spielte, im Gegensatz zu den meisten Mitgliedern einer Rock 'n' Roll-Band aber auch Songs mit Klavierbegleitung schrieb, einspielte und live vortrug. August 1970 auf dem mit Wood stock vergleichbaren Isle of Wight Festival in Godshille zwar mit der Gitarre, begleitete sich dann aber auch auf einem Flügel und mit dem Appalachian Dulcimer.16 Dieser Auftritt lässt eine deutliche Distanz zwischen der Künstlerin und Teilen des Publikums erkennen.17 Sie spielte vier Stücke auf dem Flügel, For Free, Woodstock, My Old Man und Willy.18 Bereits nach For Free bittet sie um Ruhe und nach Woodstock wird diese Distanzierung ebenfalls sichtbar, als ein Mann die Bühne betritt und eine Ansage im Namen von jenen machen möchte, die außerhalb des Geländes ohne Tickets Zaungäste waren.19 Er wird, nachdem er auch von Mitchell nicht zu überzeugen ist, zum Umut des Publikums von der Bühne gezerrt. Andere Singer-Songwriterinnen, die sich am Klavier begleiteten, wie Carole King und Carly Simon traten erst ab 1971 öffentlich auf, dem Jahr, in dem ihre Alben Tapestry (auf dem Mitchell Background Vocals singt) und Carly Simon erschienen.
Teleology
[...]Darwin's theory of natural selection in fact required thinking about purpose: in order to imagine the natural history of a given adaptation, one had to guess what that adaptation does, and then explain how that purpose might have developed through gradual changes in specific behaviors or structures. To stress the importance of purposive thinking to current scholarship, I might point to the importance of “affordance” in Caroline Levine's formalism, or to the role of “anticipation” in Paul Saint-Amour's recent recounting of trauma theory, or to the growing importance of utopia and science fiction as genres of climate politics.3 Instead, however, I'd like point to teleology's significance to the various arguments over reading practices—suspicious vs. reparative, depth vs. surface—that have ranged across the critical literature of the last two decades. [...]I'm assuming that it does matter whether the US government engineered H. I. V. Even as Sedgwick sides against unqualified suspicion, she gives qualified endorsement to a suspicious politics that resonates with today's maniacally suspicious “post-truth” public sphere. To this, Kim Stanley Robinson responds, “We can imagine utopia; it's easy as pie”—it's imagining how to get there that's the dilemma—but “we have come to a moment of utopia or catastrophe; there is no middle ground. … utopia is no longer a nice idea but, rather, a survival necessity” (“ Remarks on Utopia in the Age of Climate Change,” Utopian Studies 27, no. 1 [ 2016 ]: 7, 10).
