Extractions: Im Auftrag der Royal Society reisen zwei britische Wissenschaftler 1763 nach Amerika, um eine schnurgerade Grenze zwischen Pennsylvania und Maryland zu ziehen. Diese Grenze wurde später zur Trennungslinie zwischen den amerikanischen Nord- und Südstaaten. Es ist eine Aufbruchszeit. Die bürgerliche Gesellschaft beginnt, Himmel und Erde zu vermessen, um sie nutzbar zu machen für die Diktatur eines weltumfassenden Profitsystems. Erst wird vermessen, dann kommen die Zäune.

Extractions: The Thomas Pynchon Connection Thomas Pynchon (1937 - ) is a contemporary Amercian author of the first rank, creator of several marvelously intricate novels. Pynchon also seems to have spent some time listening closely to jazz in the late fifties, and the inclusion of allusions and echoes of that jazz scene provides additional enjoyment for those of us who also know jazz. Pynchon's first novel V (1961) includes a minor character named McClintic Sphere . Pynchon introduces him in a remarkable section (page 47 in my Bantam edition) with a whole series of links, allusions, echoes, and satirical reflections of the late 1950's and Ornette Coleman's legendary Five Spot appearance in Greenwich Village. The section starts with several of the New York cast arriving at a Greenwich Village nightclub called the V-Note: V for the title of the novel and an elusive woman, object of a novel-long search by one of the characters. V as in the Roman Numeral for Five = Five Spot. This famous club featured Thelonious Monk and John Coltrane (1957) in a legendary engagement; it was the nightclub where Ornette Coleman first opened in November 1959 (and where he played a number of times over the following years) V-Note. The Note = Half Note. Another Greenwich Village club, and another venue at which Coleman played during the period

Extractions: Dazu begibt sie sich - in rechtlichen Dingen völlig unbewandert - nach San Narciso, quasi die Hauptstadt des Firmenimperiums des verstorbenen Millionärs, um sich dort mit einem Anwalt namens Metzger zu treffen, mit dem sie auch gleich mehr oder weniger unfreiwillig ein Verhältnis eingeht. Eines Tages findet sie einen Hinweis, der Randgruppen der Gesellschaft auffordert, sich zusammenzutun und zu reden. Darunter stehen die Initialen W.A.S.T.E und ein Logo in Form eines Posthorns mit Dämpfer. Mit der Zeit bemerkt sie immer öfter dieses Symbol und versucht dieser Organisation auf die Spur zu kommen, weil sie meint, sie stünde im Zusammenhang mit Inveraritys Testament. Dabei trifft sie Menschen, die alle recht verrückt auf sie wirken, mit merkwürdigen Ideen, Theorien oder einfach nur seltsamen Verhaltensweisen. Durch Zufall wohnt sie einer Theatervorstellung bei, bei der es sich um eine klassische Geschichte von Usurpatoren handelt, aber auch um das Postsystem der Thurn und Taxis, das in Europa nach dem dreißigjährigen Krieg existierte. In einem Nebensatz erwähnt der schauspielernde Regisseur Driblette den Namen Trystero. Darunter verbarg sich damals eine mächtige Terrorgruppe, die als Gegner und Konkurrent der von Thurn und Taxis galt.

On Thomas Pynchon's Mason And Dixon: Introduction
On First Reading thomas pynchon's Mason and Dixon. In the summer of 1997 a force likea gravitational field drew me to reading thomas pynchon's Mason and Dixon.

Extractions: "There is a love of complexity here in America... pure Space waits the Surveyor,- no previous Lines, no fences, no streets to constrain polygony however extravagant,- angles pushing outward and inward,- all Sides zigging and zagging, going ahead and doubling back, making Loops inside Loops,- in America, 'twas ever, Poh! to Simple Quadrilaterals." I n the summer of 1997 a force like a gravitational field drew me to reading Thomas Pynchon's Mason and Dixon . Perhaps it was its subjects, Enlightenment science and the contradictions in American democracy that came to be marked by Mason and Dixon's famous line. Perhaps it was the rumored portraits of colonial America, especially Philadelphia, near where I live. Perhaps it was that I heard that in Mason Pynchon had created his greatest straight man, in Dixon his liveliest comic hero. At any rate, I bought the book soon after summer vacation began and read its first pages in a subterranean coffee shop in Philadelphia (without yet realizing how appropriate such a setting would be). Once I began reading Mason and Dixon I could not put it down for long. Not only was the humor irresistible, making me remember how much I'd enjoyed encountering the bad song lyrics or following that ricocheting aerosol can in the second chapter of

Extractions: HUTCHINSON ENCYCLOPEDIA Pynchon, Thomas US novelist. With great stylistic verve, he created a bizarre, labyrinthine world in his books, the first of which was V (1963), a parodic detective story in pursuit of the endlessly elusive Lady V. It was followed by the shorter comic quest novel, The Crying of Lot 49 (1966), before his gargantuan tour-de-force Gravity's Rainbow (1973), which represents a major achievement in 20th-century literature, with its fantastic imagery and esoteric language, drawn from mathematics and science.
