Leonard Cohen

A major recording artist since the release of his first album in 1967, the legend that is Leonard Cohen has had a revival of extraordinary proportions during the past two years. After spending the best part of the previous decade living in a monastery and meditating 12 hours a day, music's most eloquent poet has returned. Tim Footman tells Cohen's entire, fascinating story and goes on to include details of his newest material - his first for a decade. Features many new interviews with key Cohen associates and the most updated material available.
Leonard Cohen and Philosophy

From the early years, when he morphed from celebrated poet to provocative singer-songwriter, to his induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, Leonard Cohen has endured as one of the most enigmatic and profound figures—with a uniquely compelling voice and unparalleled depth of artistic vision—in all of popular music. The aesthetic quality and intellectual merit of Cohen’s work are above dispute; here, for the first time, a team of philosophers takes an in-depth look at its real significance. Want to know what Cohen and Kierkegaard have in common? Or whether Cohen rivals the great philosophical pessimist Schopenhauer? Then this book is for you. It provides the first thorough analysis of Cohen from various (philosophical) positions. It is intended not only for Cohen fans but also undergraduates in philosophy and other areas. It explores important neglected aspects of Cohen’s work without attempting to reduce them to academic tropes, yet nonetheless will also be useful to academics—or anyone—beguiled by the enigma that is Leonard Cohen.
