Ancient Hymns for Modern Times $13.74 Peaceful, calming, soothing, prayerful, graceful, and centering are some words that describe the feelings of the listener of “Ancient Hymns for Modern Times”. Chanted by soprano Katerina Sitaras Makiej, the hymns are selected from the worship services of the Orthodox Christian Church. This Church, established at Pentecost, (50 days after the Resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ,) has conti… |

Hercules (Gold Collection) $9.99 Not the egregious foul it seemed to be in theaters, Hercules stands up as an entertaining spritzer of an animated feature. The continual peppering of in-jokes and cultural references becomes less irksome on video. That there’s no majesty or awe invested in the beloved Greek legends also seems less of an error. Also on the plus side is the bounciest Alan Menken music since Little Shop of Horrors. W… |

Rome: The Complete First Season $22.49 Family dysfunction. Treachery. Betrayal. Coarse profanity. Brutal violence. Graphic (and sometimes brutal) sex. No, it’s not The Sopranos, it’s Rome, HBO’s madly ambitious series that bloodily splatters the glory of Rome just as savagely as Monty Python and the Holy Grail soiled the good name of Camelot (but with far fewer laughs; very few funny things happen on the way to this forum). Set in 52 B… |

Troy (Two-Disc Widescreen Edition) $4.00 There are many reasons to recommend Troy as a good ol’ fashioned Hollywood epic, especially if you’ve never read Homer’s The Iliad. Dispensing with Greek gods altogether, this earnestly massive production (budgeted at upwards of $200 million) will surely offend historians and devoted students of the classics (for them, there’s the History Channel’s Troy). But there’s politics aplenty in the grand-… |

Book of Rhymes: The Poetics of Hip Hop $9.50 If asked to list the greatest innovators of modern American poetry, few of us would think to include Jay-Z or Eminem in their number. And yet hip hop is the source of some of the most exciting developments in verse today. The media uproar in response to its controversial lyrical content has obscured hip hop’s revolution of poetic craft and experience: Only in rap music can the beat of a song ren… |

Black Noise: Rap Music and Black Culture in Contemporary America (Music Culture) $12.75 From its beginnings in hip hop culture, the dense rhythms and aggressive lyrics of rap music have made it a provocative fixture on the American cultural landscape. In Black Noise: Rap Music and Black Culture in Contemporary America, Tricia Rose, described by the New York Times as a “hip hop theorist,” takes a comprehensive look at the lyrics, music, cultures, themes, and styles of this highly r… |

The Birth of Tragedy: Out of the Spirit of Music (Penguin Classics) $4.61 A compelling argument for the necessity for art in life, Nietzsche’s first book is fuelled by his enthusiasms for Greek tragedy, for the philosophy of Schopenhauer and for the music of Wagner, to whom this work was dedicated. Nietzsche outlined a distinction between its two central forces: the Apolline, representing beauty and order, and the Dionysiac, a primal or ecstatic reaction to the sublime…. |
