Description:
Middletown, CT: Wesleyan University Press, 1979. 1st Edition . Hardcover. Very Good/Very Good. Inscribed first edition of this 1979 collection of essays, mesostics, and other procedurally generated writings by the avant-garde American composer. The title work is a text-score in which chance operations are used to systematically deconstruct the journals of Henry David Thoreau--a tactic born of Cage's interest in "demilitarizing" language by making it less understandable. Other pieces include a long anecdotal poem relating to Cage's macrobiotic diet, and the "The Future of Music," which was essentially the last of Cage's nonfiction works written in a traditional essay format. Quarto (8.25 x 9.5 in.); ix, 187pp.; black cloth boards, white spine titles, in dust jacket. Neatly signed and inscribed ("For Jo") by Cage, in red felt-tip pen, on the half-title page. Light foxing to edges of textblock and sporadically to interior; boards lightly shelfworn; mild musty…

The first cinema, the Asakusa Denikikan, was opened in Tokyo in 1903 and within 13 years 300 cinemas had sprung up throughout the country... (The author) focuses on the historical development of Japanese film, illustrated by a series of typical Japanese film posters. She details an industry and an art form shaped by the competing and merging forces of traditional culture and of economic and technological innovation." Edgewear, creases to bottom and bottom and top corners of front cover, soil on bottom and light soil to outside pages. We note pencilled underlining on at least 29 pages and pencilled marginalia on at least three pages and four creased page corners. Quotes…
