सच्ची रामायण, पेरियार ई. वी. रामासामी की बहुचर्चित और सबसे विवादास्पद कृति रही है। पेरियार रामायण को एक राजनीतिक ग्रंथ मानते थे। उनका कहना था कि इसे दक्षिणवासी अनार्यों पर उत्तर के आर्यों की विजय और प्रभुत्व को जायज ठहराने के लिए लिखा गया और यह गैर-ब्राह्मणों पर ब्राह्मणों और महिलाओं पर पुरुषों के वर्चस्व का उपकरण है। यह किताब हिंदी में 1968में ‘स…[Read more]

Im Jahr 2002 kam die fast verzweifelte Suche nach Beethovens verschollenem Oboenkonzert zu einem vorläufigen Ende, weil die Forschung an dieser Stelle nicht weiterkam. Jetzt habe ich neue Hinweise auf das autographe Dokument gefunden – und auch auf Mozarts verschollenes Oboenkonzert sowie auf eine unbekannte Oper von Joseph Haydn. Es ist kein Zu…[Read more]

In 2002 the research for Beethoven’s lost oboe concerto came to a temporary end. Now I’ve found new leads to the autograph manuscript – and to Mozart’s lost oboe concerto, too, and to a lost opera of Joseph Haydn.

The Greek addition to Daniel Susanna and Chariton of Aphrodisias’ Callirhoe are early examples of novels/novella. These works reflect on legal protocol and the place of women vis-à-vis the law and the household, exposing female bodies to make their point. This article connects these features to ancient novelists’ utilisation of female bodies. Cont…[Read more]
