Кіріспе
Энтони Пауэллдің 12 томдық кітаптар сериясы "Уақыт музыкасына би" – ағылшын жазушысы Энтони Пауэллдің 1951 және 1975 жылдар аралығында жарияланған 12 томдық роман-флевуы. Бұл оқиға – ХХ ғасырдың ортасындағы ағылшын саяси, мәдени және әскери өміріндегі қозғалыстар мен әдеп-ғұрыптарды, билік пен пассивтілікті көбінесе ойнақы түрде зерттейтін туынды. Кітаптар француз суретшісі Николя Пуссеннің сол аттас картинасынан шабыттандырылған. Оқиғаның баяндамасын Николас Дженкинс жүргізеді. Бірінші томның басында Дженкинс көмір оттыққа қар жауғанын көріп, ойға кетеді. Бұл оған «көне әлемді» – легионерлерді, тау құрбандықтарын, кентаврларды еске салады. Осы классикалық ойлар оның мектеп шағы туралы әңгімесін бастайды, ол «Тәрбие мәселесі» деп аталады. Келесі томдарда ол өткен жарты ғасырда кездескен адамдарын және олардың мінезін ашып көрсететін, көбінесе ұсақ-түйек оқиғаларды еске түсіреді. Дженкинстің тұлғасы роман барысында баяу және көбінесе ишаралы түрде ашылады. Бернард Стейси романның поэтикалық сілтемелерін жинақтап, талдады. Time журналы осы романды 1923 жылдан 2005 жылға дейінгі ағылшын тіліндегі 100 үздік романның тізіміне қосты. Modern Library редакциясы осы туындыны ХХ ғасырдың ең ұлы ағылшын тіліндегі романы деп санайды. BBC осы романды 100 үздік британдық роман тізімінде 36-шы орынға қойды. 2019 жылы Кристофер де Беляйг The Nation журналында «Уақыт музыкасына би» романының «бәлкім, ХХ ғасырдың ең көрнекті Лондон романы екенін, ол осы қатал, төзімді және кейде аяусыз қаланың жоғарғы топтарындағы адам мінез-құлқын зерттейді» деп жазды. 7-9 томдар, «Соғыс трилогиясы» – «Сүйектер аңғары», «Әскер өнері» және «Әскери философтар» – Бернард Стейсидің «Соғыс биі» еңбегінің негізгі тақырыбы болып табылады.
12 volume book series by Anthony Powell
A Dance to the Music of Time is a 12 volume roman fleuve by English writer Anthony Powell, published between 1951 and 1975 to critical acclaim. The story is an often comic examination of movements and manners, power and passivity in English political, cultural and military life in the mid 20th century. The books were inspired by the painting of the same name by French artist Nicolas Poussin. The sequence is narrated by Nicholas Jenkins. At the beginning of the first volume, Jenkins falls into a reverie while watching snow descending on a coal brazier. This reminds him of "the ancient world—legionaries mountain altars centaurs " These classical projections introduce the account of his schooldays, which opens A Question of Upbringing. Over the course of the following volumes, he recalls the people he met over the previous half a century and the events, often small, that reveal their characters. Jenkins's personality is unfolded slowly, and often elliptically, over the course of the novels. Bernard Stacey compiled a catalog and analysis of the poetic allusions in the novel. Time magazine included the novel in its list of the 100 best English language novels from 1923 to 2005. The editors of Modern Library ranked the work as 43rd greatest English language novel of the 20th century. The BBC ranked the novel 36th on its list of the 100 greatest British novels. In 2019 Christopher de Bellaigue wrote in The Nation that A Dance to the Music of Time is "perhaps the supreme London novel of the 20th century, an examination of the human behavior that defines the upper echelons of this brash, resilient, often pitiless place." Volumes 7 9, "The War Trilogy," The Valley of Bones, The Soldier's Art and The Military Philosophers are the focus of Bernard Stacey's War Dance.
