Abstract

A musical enigma or a poet? Jim Morrison seems to fit both quite easily. There are several biographies of Jim Morrison and his cult rock band, “Doors”. But no other book offers a treat to Jim Morrison fans across the globe like The Collected Works of Jim Morrison. This anthology is the result of a collaboration between Harper Design (an imprint of Harper Collins publication) and the Jim Morrison Estate. An engaging combination of 160 photographs and Morrison’s own comments on the work accompany the text throughout the book. These include fragments from his 28 secretly owned journals. This book is like an archive for all Jim Morrison lovers; it contains manuscripts, drafts, diaries, lyrics, poetry, and a script written by the legend in his own handwriting, which has never been printed previously.

书评：吉姆·莫里森文集：诗歌、期刊、抄本和歌词

音乐之谜还是诗人？吉姆·莫里森似乎很容易适应两者。有几本关于吉姆·莫里森和他狂热的摇滚乐队“Doors”的传记。但没有其他书能像《吉姆·莫里森文集》那样为全球的吉姆·莫里森粉丝们提供美食。这本选集是哈珀设计公司（哈珀柯林斯出版社的印记）和吉姆·莫里森庄园合作的成果。160张照片和莫里森自己对作品的评论结合在一起，贯穿全书。其中包括他28本秘密拥有的期刊的片段。这本书就像是所有吉姆·莫里森爱好者的档案；它包含手稿、草稿、日记、歌词、诗歌，以及这位传奇人物用自己的笔迹写的剧本，这是以前从未印刷过的。

期刊介绍： “The fundamental idea for interdisciplinarity derives” as our Chief Editor Explains, “from an evolutionary necessity; namely the need to confront and interpret complex systems…An entity that is studied can no longer be analyzed in terms of an object of just single discipline, but as a contending hierarchy of components which could be studied under the rubric of multiple or variable branches of knowledge.” Following this, we encourage authors to engage themselves in interdisciplinary discussion of topics from the broad areas listed below and apply interdsiciplinary perspectives from other areas of the humanities and/or the sciences wherever applicable. We publish peer-reviewed original research papers and reviews in the interdisciplinary fields of humanities. A list, which is not exclusive, is given below for convenience. See Areas of discussion. We have firm conviction in Open Access philosophy and strongly support Open Access Initiatives. Rupkatha has signed on to the Budapest Open Access Initiative. In conformity with this, the principles of publications are primarily guided by the open nature of knowledge.
