Nikolay Myaskovsky: The Conscience of Russian Music By Gregor Tassie
2014 | 438 Pages | ISBN: 1442231327 | PDF | 10 MB
Gregor Tassie describes Nikolay Myaskovsky as "one of the great enigmas of 20th-century Russian music." Between the two world wars, the symphonies of Myaskovsky enjoyed great popularity and were performed by all major American and European orchestras; they were some of the most inspiring symphonic works of the last hundred years and prolonged the symphonic genre. But accusations of "formalism" at the 1948 USSR Composers Congress resulted in the purposeful neglect of his music until the collapse of the Soviet Union. Myaskovsky wrote some of the most inspiring symphonic works of the last hundred years and prolonged and extended the symphonic genre. In Nikolay Myaskovsky: The Conscience of Russian Music, Tassie gives readers the first modern English-language biography of this Russian composer since his death in 1950. Tassie draws together information from the composer's diaries and letters, as well as the memoirs of friends and colleagues-even his secret police files-to chronicle Myaskovsky's early life, subsequent far-reaching influence as a composer, teacher, and journalist, and his final persecution by the Soviet government. This biography will surely rekindle interest in Myaskovsky's remarkable body of work and will interest aficionados, students, and scholars of the modern classical music tradition and history of the arts in Russia.

Data has enjoyed 'bystander' status as we've attempted to digitize responsibility and morality in tech.

It's use—and misuse—lies at the heart of many of the racist, gendered, classist, and otherwise oppressive practices of modern tech.

Shambhu Ram Simkhada, "Human Rights Human Wrongs: In the Scale of Human Conscience"
English | ISBN: 0367701944 | 2020 | 208 pages | EPUB | 2 MB
The Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR) is the best gift of the United Nations and its main human rights organ, the Human Rights Commission to "We, the Peoples of the World". But that powerful instrument is often rendered powerless by the behaviour of individuals running the institutions and the states, arguably the most powerful institution conceptualised by human mind so far. In the process, the UN comes under serious criticism and its most important organ which helped give the UDHR was dissolved for "failing to live up to its ideals". Ironically, the same states and their representatives most instrumental in creating the UN institutions, including the Human Rights Commission first but later vilifying it and leading the campaign for its replacement by the Human Rights Council are now once again attacking it as "hypocritical and self-serving organisation that makes a mockery of human rights" and the most powerful member state feels compelled to walk out of the Council. Where does the world, the UN and "we the peoples" stand in the search for greater freedom from want and fear, better enjoyment of dignity and rights?
