Leonard Cohen’s artistic career is unique. Most poets and novelists do not become rock stars. No other rock star’s career peaked in their eighth decade as Leonard Cohen’s did. Cohen’s popularity is still growing five years after his death. In The World of Leonard Cohen, a team of international scholars and writers explore the various dimensions of the artist’s life, work, persona, and legacy to offer an authoritative and accessible summation of Cohen’s extraordinary career. His relation to key themes and topics – Judaism, Buddhism, Christianity, Zen and the East, the Folk tradition, Rock and roll, Canadian and World literature, film -are all addressed. The World of Leonard Cohen offers a comprehensive, uniquely informed and wholly fresh account of this iconic songwriter and artist, whose singular voice has permanently altered our cultural landscape.<\/div>\n

Pressestimmen<\/h3>\n
‚Leonard Cohen holds a singular place within the story of American popular music as a fully successful polymath who lounged seductively and neurotically at the center of the singer-songwriter movement while maintaining his stance as an outsider: a poet first, a Canadian, a Jewish seeker who was at once more natural and more steadfast in that role than most. The World of Leonard Cohen reveals the many facets of this elusive character, reminding readers than he is much more than the purveyor of the contemporary hymn ‚Hallelujah.‘ With its broad scope and many divergent voices, this anthology rightly celebrates one of music’s most fascinating public intellectuals.‘ Ann Powers, author of Traveling: On the Path of Joni Mitchell<\/div>\n
