Very light shelfwear to DJ else fine. ; 254 pages; Father Owen Lee is internationally known for his intermission commentaries featured during the Saturday afternoon broadcasts from the Metropolitan Opera House in New York. A Season of Opera: From Orpheus to Ariadne gathers together for the first time Father Lee's best broadcast and cassette commentaries public lectures and articles on twenty-three works for the musical stage. The essays range from the pioneering Orpheus of Monteverdi to the forward-looking Ariadne of Richard Strauss.

‎The Olive-Tree Bed and Other Quests‎

‎Toronto: University of Toronto Press 1997 "The Olive-Tree Bed and Other Quests" the Fourth in the series of Robson Lectures published by the University of Toronto Press is Owen Lee's study of the quest myth as it occurs in Homer's Odyssey Virgil's Aeneid Wagner's Parsifal and Goethe's Faust. Though the four works represent four different genres -- oral epic written epic music drama and poetic drama -- each deals with the finding of an elusive goal attainable only by the hero called to find it. The questing for the olive-tree bed the Golden Bough the Holy Grail and the Eternal Feminine is at the deepest level the hero's search to find the meaning in his life. . this volume is also a personal memoir written in the belletristic style for which its author has become known. Father Lee wears his learning lightly and his writing changes from chapter to chapter as it reflects in turn the clarity and naive sense of wonder in Homer the darkness and ambivalence in Virgil the intuitive mysticism of Wagner and the riotously imaginative exuberance of Goethe. Each of the four quests comes eventually to be seen as every person's search to discover himself -- for the journey of the hero is the myth each of us is called to live. 175. bibliography. index.

‎Leeming David‎

‎MYTH A Biography of Belief‎

‎Oxford University Press. Very Good. 2003. Paperback. 019516105X . Light creasing to front wrap. Minor shelfwear. Scholar's name to half-title Robert Brown. ; Exploring classic works such as the Song of Songs the Tao Te Ching the Rig Veda the New Testament and the Indonesian myth of Hainuwele Myth: A Biography of Belief reveals the cultural energies that ancient "mythmakers" sought to corral in their creations. David Leeming argues that myths are by definition evolving creations that live on in the work of modern-day "mythmakers" such as W. B. Yeats Virginia Woolf and Albert Einstein. Leeming provides an engaging new outlook on the role of myth in the works of these and other contemporary artists and scientists. The similarities between modern concepts like the "Big Bang" and ancient myths of creation illustrate our continuing need to confront the mysteries of existence by way of metaphor and narrative. Leeming suggests that myth and factual knowledge do not negate but complement each other. Whether it is the "American Dream" alien abduction or belief in virgin birth and resurrection these "living myths" play a very therapeutic role in the development of a healthy society. ; 192 pages .
