About the author

Leonard Cohen

Leonard Norman Cohen was a Canadian singer-songwriter, poet and novelist. Cohen published his first book of poetry in Montreal in 1956 and his first novel in 1963.

Cohen's earliest songs (many of which appeared on the 1968 album Songs of Leonard Cohen) were rooted in European folk music melodies and instrumentation, sung in a high baritone. The 1970s were a musically restless period in which his influences broadened to encompass pop, cabaret, and world music. Since the 1980s he has typically sung in lower registers (bass baritone, sometimes bass), with accompaniment from electronic synthesizers and female backing singers.

His work often explores the themes of religion, isolation, sexuality, and complex interpersonal relationships.

Cohen's songs and poetry have influenced many other singer-songwriters, and more than a thousand renditions of his work have been recorded. He has been inducted into the Canadian Music Hall of Fame and the Canadian Songwriters Hall of Fame and is also a Companion of the Order of Canada, the nation's highest civilian honour. Cohen was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame on March 10, 2008 for his status among the "highest and most influential echelon of songwriters".

Many fat men listened Though they offered stones. Magic still was fed Though they locked their coffers God was always served Magic is afoot, God is alive. Alive is afoot Alive is in command. Many weak men hungered Many strong men thrived. Though they boasted Solitude God was at their side. Nor the dreamer in his cell Nor the captain on the hill Magic is alive. Though his death was pardoned Round and round the world the heart would not believe. Though laws were carved in marble they could not shelter men. Though altars built in parliaments they could not order men. Police arrested magic and magic went with them for magic loves the hungry. But magic would not tarry. It moves from arm to arm It would not stay with them: Magic is afoot It cannot come to harm. It rests in an empty palm It spawns in an empty mind. But magic is no instrument Magic is the end. Many men drove magic but magic stayed behind Many strong men lied. They only passed through magic and out the other side. Many weak men lied. They came to God in secret and though they left Him nourished they would not tell who healed. Though mountains danced before them they said that God was dead. Though his shrouds were hoisted the naked God did live. This I mean to whisper to my mind. This I mean to laugh within my mind. This I mean my mind to serve til' service is but magic. Moving through the world, and mind itself is magic coursing through the flesh. And flesh itself is magic dancing on a clock, And time itself the magic length of God

Об авторе (2000)

Leonard Cohen was born and raised in the affluent Westmount district of Montreal and graduated from McGill University in 1955. For a short time, Cohen attended graduate school at Columbia. Throughout the 1960s, Cohen's verse, both as song and poetry, became extremely popular. His "Suzanne" was one of the most-recorded songs of the decade. Always a poet whose work reflected the attitudes of society's nonconformists, Cohen successively identified with the Beat Generation of the 1950s, the rhetoricians of protest of the mid-1960s, and the more meditative disillusionment of the 1970s. Cohen's best-known work, Beautiful Losers (1966), is a dazzling novel that is an abstraction of all searches for a lost innocence. In Death of a Lady's Man (1978), one of Cohen's collections of poetry, his preoccupation with the duality of beauty and decadence is once again explored.
