Comparative Musicology
This is an open access title available under the terms of a CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 licence. It is free to read at Oxford Scholarship Online and offered as a free PDF download from OUP and selected open access locations. Why do all human societies make music, but in such different ways? Scientific attempts to answer this question through cross-cultural comparison stalled during the 20th century and have only recently begun to make a resurgence. In this book, Patrick Savage, a leader in this resurgence synthesises recent advances from musicology and related fields including psychology, linguistics, computer science, and evolutionary anthropology to outline ways to understand and compare all the world's music. He applies comparative musicology to longstanding debates including universal and culturally-specific aspects of human music; evolutionary relationships between song, speech, and animal vocalisation; and applications to areas including music copyright, 2nd language acquisition, social bonding, and cultural heritage revitalisation. In doing so, he argues for an inclusive, multidisciplinary field that uplifts traditionally marginalised voices and combines the qualitative methods traditionally employed by musicologists and cultural anthropologists with quantitative methods from the natural sciences. The book is accessibly written using over 50 figures/tables and an interactive tutorial with audio examples, with each chapter designed to be readable/teachable on its own. It is designed to be appreciated by anyone from undergraduate students to senior professors, without requiring any specialised background knowledge.
Survivor: Forged by Fire
The official book celebrating the landmark fiftieth season of Survivor—featuring commentary by Emmy Award–winning host Jeff Probst and many never-before-seen images. What’s it like to be on Survivor? It’s a question millions of people have wondered since Survivor debuted on CBS in the summer of 2000 and forever changed television. What’s it like to face off in the grueling physical challenges? To endure the unforgiving elements of dense jungles and remote islands? To form alliances with and conspire against fellow players? To anxiously sit at tribal council and hear host Jeff Probst render the verdict on whether your torch will remain lit or be extinguished? Survivor: Forged By Fire answers these questions and more, replicating what it feels like to play the game. Using stunning photography—many of the images never-before-seen—the book leads readers through each phase of the competition: from “The Arrival” to “The Return” and every thrilling, harrowing, and inspiring moment in between. Curated by Survivor’s longtime director of photography Scott Duncan, the breathtaking pictorials depict the show’s most famous players and most memorable moments in an entirely fresh and even more candid way. Accompanying these striking visuals are moving reflections from Probst, who, for the first time, shares pages of diaries he kept during filming. This gorgeously designed work of art is an absolute must for any fan of Survivor. It’s also a powerful testament to the unlimited potential that resides within every human being—an ode to the importance of determination, perseverance, and belief in one’s self. As Probst writes, “Survivor isn’t just a game. It’s a journey. One that calls to the adventurer inside us all.” TM & © 2026 Survivor Productions, LLC. All Rights Reserved
Surrealisté - Jejich bouřlivé osudy
Jak se surrealistické umění v raných letech vyvíjelo v Montparnassu, kdo byl jeho součástí a kdo ne? Jaký byl svět Montparnassu v letech, kdy se formoval surrealismus jako umělecké hnutí? Surrealismus změnil naše vnímání, ale jeho ideje vznikaly postupně, v úplně jiném světě, než jaký známe dnes. Jaké byly během tohoto mimořádného období vztahy mezi jednotlivými umělci, kteří jsou dnes považováni za surrealisty? Jaký vliv měly na nově vznikající myšlenky Duchampovo konceptuální umění a de Chiricova metafyzická tvorba? Proč se měl Picasso před Bretonem na pozoru? Proč byl Ďagilev navzdory průkopnickému dopadu své práce vždy na společenském okraji umělecké scény? Proč Breton nenáviděl Cocteaua? Jakou roli hrály ženy (včetně modelky, zpěvačky a múzy Mana Raye, Kiki z Montparnassu), čas a místo při rozvoji myšlenek, které mají tak trvalý dopad na náš pohled na umělecké dílo? Mezi současnými umělci jsou mnozí, jejichž dílo je zjevně ovlivněno surrealismem. Jak to všechno začalo?

Cottagecore Gardens
A home does not end at its doorsteps. Cottagecore Gardens picks up where Cottagecore left off, shifting from interiors to the outdoor spaces that frame and sustain them. Courtyards, edible plots, meadows, and off-grid enclaves reveal a logic shaped by time and care rather than design rules. Loose borders and self-seeded paths speak to gardens that evolve with time and use. Together they embody a broader cultural turn toward slower, more intentional living, where the garden becomes refuge, resource, and extension of home.
Architecture Against Architecture
Architecture, as we know it, is in crisis. The authority of architects is crumbling, their methods no longer tenable. In a highly critical introspection, architect and writer Reinier de Graaf explores the tough choices ahead and the course of action that must follow.
Architecture Against Architecture demands we rethink both how and why we build. With wit and insight, De Graaf lays out the future of the profession, challenging readers to question the fundamental assumptions of the discipline. How do we end the feudal veneration of starchitects? When will architects finally recognize that it is in their own best interest to unionize? Why aren't more practices collectively owned? Why do so many architects over sixty-seven refuse to retire? How do we stop buildings from being copy-righted? What will remain of architecture after AI? What can prevent iconic structures from being embroiled in money laundering? And the vital question: What projects should architects refuse on moral grounds?

Vyprávění o vzniku českých zlidovělých písní
Pokusit se o nemožné a vypátrat přibližný původ nejznámějších lidových písní z Čech a Moravy. To si dal za úkol zkušený hudební archeolog Michal Bystrov, autor oceňované knižní trilogie Příběhy písní. Vydejme se s ním po stopách prastarých melodií a veršů, na jejichž původní smysl, osudy a pravé skladatele se dávno zapomnělo. Na základě ověřených faktů líčí vypravěč-poutník co možná nejpodrobněji a nejpravdivěji historii jejich vzniku, srovnává všechny známé teorie, upozorňuje na staleté omyly a vykresluje prostředí a situace, v nichž se jednotlivé písně zrodily. Zajímá vás, kdo se procházel po hrázi Tálínského rybníka, ze kterého mostku se shodily panny v Bošilci, kde stála Putimská brána, co se skrývá za popěvkem Tluče bubeníček, v kolika zemích leze kočka dírou, kde tančili kalamajku, komu je přisouzen vynález polky, z jaké látky ušil K. J. Erben svůj horor Svatební košile, jak se koleda o předobrém králi Václavovi dostala do Anglie, kudy putovala do světa Andulka šafářova a jak to bylo s udatným kanonýrem Jabůrkem? V této knize najdete odpovědi. Nebo nové otázky.
OBSAH:

Tall in the Saddle
Tall in the Saddle: The Life of Ben Johnson, Hollywood’s Real Cowboy is the definitive biography of Ben Johnson (1918–1996), the only man to win both an Academy Award and a world rodeo championship. Born on a historic Oklahoma ranch, Johnson could rope cattle before he could read, and his horsemanship took him straight to Hollywood when tycoon Howard Hughes needed horses for The Outlaw in 1943. What started as a behind-the-scenes gig turned into an acting career that spanned six decades. Discovered by legendary director John Ford, Johnson became a fixture in classic Westerns alongside John Wayne, before stepping into more complex roles with filmmakers like Sam Peckinpah, Steven Spielberg, and Peter Bogdanovich—who guided him to his Oscar-winning performance in The Last Picture Show. Though he worked with Hollywood greats like Steve McQueen, Marlon Brando, and Clint Eastwood, Johnson remained rooted in the authenticity of the American West, both on and off screen. Drawing from a wealth of interviews with costars, directors, and rodeo companions, Kathryn Jones captures the grit, grace, and enduring legacy of a man who didn’t just play a cowboy—he was one. Tall in the Saddle is a rich, cinematic portrait of a Hollywood legend whose real-life story is as unforgettable as any role he played.
Renoir and Love
A celebration of Renoir’s imagery of love in all its guises, from seduction and courtship to friendship, camaraderie and parenthood.
More than any of his contemporaries, Renoir was committed to chronicling love and friendship. Whether painting Parisian streetcorners or sun-dappled woodlands, he understood that emotion could be as fleeting and blinding as his other great and transitory subject, sunlight itself.
Focusing on the crucial period of the artist’s career from the mid-1860s to the mid-1880s, this catalogue traces the evolution of Renoir’s imagery of love, from affection, flirtation and seduction to camaraderie and parenthood. Such themes are explored in tender and personal works as well as ambitious multi-figure compositions, including Dance at the Moulin de la Galette and The Umbrellas.
Accompanying the most significant exhibition of the French Impressionist’s work in the UK for 20 years, this publication addresses the broad theme of Renoir and love through a series of thematic essays, interspersed with focused entries on key artworks.

Shigeru Ban
From emergency relief shelters to a cardboard cathedral and exhibition spaces in shipping containers, Pritzker Prize-winning architect Shigeru Ban has made his name with his restlessly inventive response to material and situation, as much as with his humanitarian work at the sites of natural and man-made disasters. According to scholar Riichi Miyake, Ban's work represents "an architectural iteration of Doctors Without Borders."
In the spirit of three-dimensional poetry, Ban uses materials as an integral part of his design, selected not for their cutting-edge credentials but rather for their expressive ability, their capacity to convey the building's overall concept. In particular, Ban has made regular use of paper tubing in projects as varied as the Japanese Pavilion at Expo 2000 in Hanover and the Paper Log Houses in the Philippines, built after Typhoon Haiyan in November 2013.
This essential introduction, compiled with Ban's own collaboration, presents his most important projects to date, surveying the full reach and importance of, in the words of the Pritzker Prize jury, a "committed teacher who is not only a role model for younger generations, but also an inspiration."
Vilhelm Hammershoi: Painting as Poetry
The ultimate story of Vilhelm Hammershoi – one of the greatest Danish artists of all timesThe Danish painter Vilhelm Hammershoi (1864–1916) is world-famous for his greyscale interiors, and his paintings are purchased at sky-high prices by Danish and international museums. Hammershoi’s unique paintings attracted international attention early on and marked a new form of expression in harmony with the era around 1900. Hammershoi is particularly known for his interiors but is at least as interesting as an architectural and landscape painter. Hammershoi’s art contains deep existential complications, and his work testifies to strong human integrity, solitude, meditative thoughtfulness, erotic fascination, and opens suggestively toward an inner world and a metaphysical perception of light. The book synthesizes Henrik Wivel’s extensive knowledge of Hammershoi and the era in which he lived with perspectives on contemporary art.
100 Cult Films
In this follow up to their 100 Cult Films, Ernest Mathijs and Xavier Mendik provide a guide to one hundred more incredible films from the history and present of cult cinema around the world, from the 1911 Italian silent Dante''s Inferno to Jordan Peele''s 2017 horror classic Get Out. Their richly-illustrated guide addresses the work of filmmakers including Stanley Kubrick, Paul Verhoeven, Julien Temple, Ana Lily Amirpour, Lizzie Borden, Rob Reiner and John Carpenter, and movies from countries ranging from Iran to Peru, South Korea to Sweden, Japan to the USA. The films represent genres including sci-fi, romance, horror, vampire, comedy and action, and in their subject matter and through the debates (and sometimes controversies) that surrounds them raise issues about identity, home, belonging, exoticism, censorship and what it means to be ''weird''. By presenting 100 films that confirm and interrogate the notion of what makes a film a ‘cult film’, 100 Cult Films Redux reinvigorates the debate about cult cinema while affirming its foundations in today’s volatile and vibrant cultural climate.

SHIFT
The official publication accompanying the 6th Chicago Architecture Biennial (CAB 2025)
Unfolds the many faces of the CAB 2025 exhibition SHIFT: Architecture in Times of Radical Change across a dynamic constellation of editorial and speculative formats
Expands beyond CAB 2025 to discuss the current state of education in architecture schools, the challenges of material culture, the future of housing, and exhibitions as devices for change
Chicago Architecture Biennial is North America's largest international survey of contemporary architecture and designSHIFT: Architecture in Times of Radical Change is published in conjunction with the 6th Chicago Architecture Biennial (CAB 2025) under the artistic direction of Florencia Rodriguez. In a world defined by crisis and uncertainty, architects are researching, relearning and reimagining, the volume marks not only a change in direction but also presents provocative inquiries about a redefinition in the substance and fundamentals of the field. It is an invitation to think with others, to project with intention, and to set new grounds for the interpretation and design of our built environments. In the same spirit, the book unfolds the many faces of SHIFT across a dynamic constellation of editorial and speculative formats through collective, multilayered, and multidimensional conversations, visual essays, and manifestos.
CAB 2025 participants' voices are brought to print through a transcript of a five-hour conversation marathon that tackled topics such as new realism, the magic in the ordinary, pleasures in the urban, and the need to critically shift architecture's language, as well as a repository of manifestos exploring other possible worlds. Beyond the exhibition, SHIFT: Architecture in Times of Radical Change also calls upon practitioners from different fields to discuss the current state of education in architecture schools, the challenges of material culture, the future of housing, and exhibitions as devices for change.
Figura
Umělecká kreativita je základní téma, které i v odborných dějinách umění přemáhá dnešní hyperspecializaci. Chiasmatický pojem figury a figurace potom pomáhají pochopit hlubší vztahy mezi tradicí a modernou. Kniha sleduje tyto otázky nejen teoreticky, ale i v konkrétních rozborech významných uměleckých výkonů. Petr Wittlich V knize je teoreticky i historicky vytvořena propozice pro novou metodologii uměleckohistorického výkladu umění pomocí pojmů figura a figurace. Její výhodou je, že umožňuje vytvářet historicky situované syntézy formálních i obsahových složek, působících při vzniku uměleckých děl a neodděluje moderní umění od tradice, i když zdůrazňuje jeho inovační kapacitu. Petr Wittlich vybudoval nový samotný výkladový systém. Kniha Figura, tak představuje pro další generace, nejen historiků umění, návod jak nepředpojatě a zároveň poučeně vnímat umění jako takové. Jde o jedinečný přínos dějinám umění, syntézu Wittlichova celoživotního úsilí, knihu, která přetrvá věky.
Cinematic Immunity
Cinematic Immunity tells the story of New York City''s movie industry from the crew members who created the sets, lit the scenes, and shot the film. Focused on the golden age of New York filmmaking, Cinematic Immunity covers On the Waterfront through The Sopranos. The East Coast film industry, thousands of miles from the Los Angeles executives, existed by its own rules and with little oversight. It was a close-knit and freewheeling community of movie technicians that took on the most outrageous challenges to get every shot perfect. Behind-the-scenes documentaries and books feature ''above the line'' talent-actors, producers, directors, and writers. For the first time, readers will hear the unvarnished truth of the New York movie industry-tales about union politics, labor strikes, movie families, dangerous locations, difficult shots, volatile directors, anecdotes about actors, pranks, friendships, rivalries, generational shifts, substance use and abuse, technical feats, and more. Readers will hear never heard before stories about classic (and not so classic) films and television shows including: Midnight Cowboy, The Warriors, The French Connection, The Exorcist, The Godfather, The Wiz, The Taking of Pelham 123, Annie Hall, Cruising, Do The Right Thing, When Harry Met Sally, Home Alone 2, Carlito''s Way, The Sopranos, and Law and Order. Expect to discover secrets about how your favorite scenes were shot and the outrageous characters with outsized talents whose personalities sometimes dwarfed actors and directors. Tales of their exploits, what they saw (and did) on these sets was previously only passed among themselves as showbiz lore but now, readers learn of Marlon Brando''s pranks on the set of The Godfather, how crews kept William Friedkin from killing them, the actors, and himself, and how consummate New Yorker Sidney Lumet was the angel to Friedkin''s demons. Author Michael Lee Nirenberg has worked as a scenic artist in New York since 2006, and in many cases, alongside many of the people featured in the book. This book is a labor of love comprised of over 150 interviews and hundreds of hours of recordings. Cinematic Immunity includes hundreds of behind-the-scenes images from studio archives and from the technicians who were there.
