Cílem této diplomové práce je přispět k výzkumu mešní tvorby pražského skladatele Antonína Reichenauera. První dvě kapitoly zahrnují popis aktuálního stavu bádání, úvahu nad světci v dedikacích Reichenauerových mší a popis tří pražských rukopisů a jejich konkordančních opisů. Součástí úvodních kapitol je též soupis mší Antonína Reichenauera. Třetí kapitola pojednává o typu koncertantní mše a o jejích konkrétních podobách ve významných evropských hudebních centrech (vznik a vývoj druhu v Itálii a jeho podoba ve Vídni, Drážďanech a Praze). Poslední kapitola je stylovou analýzou jednotlivých složek Reichenauerova mešního kompozičního stylu. Vybrané Reichenauerovy mše jsou konfrontovány se skladbami benátských, neapolských, vídeňských a drážďanských autorů, celá analýza je pokusem o vymezení některých individuálních/společných rysů Reichenauerovy tvorby a tvorby jeho současníků působících ve zmíněných centrech.

Vittorio Alfieri (1749-1803) usava nel creare le sue tragedie un piano particolare: dapprima 'ideava', cioè fissava rapidamente la struttura dell'opera; in seguito, 'stendeva', e metteva su carta tutto ciò che gli passava per la mente, in prosa, con impeto e furore; in ultimo, 'verseggiava', ed ogni pensiero veniva cambiato in endecasillabi, ed attentamente limava tutte le imperfezioni: nasceva così la tragedia.

This research tries to establish whether knowledge of music and its related areas – specifically playing an instrument, singing and dancing – had an influence on the social status of a young lady in the late 18th and early 19th centuries in England. Three of Jane Austen’s novels (Sense and Sensibility, Pride and Prejudice and Emma) are analysed and the main female characters in each are scrutinised with regard to their differing levels of musical accomplishment. Their individual positions on the social ladder at the end of each novel are evaluated and their change in situation is discussed. The notion that young ladies had to be accomplished in certain specified areas in order to be socially acceptable was an established convention during Jane Austen’s lifetime. So-called “conduct books” and the general expectations of society required that all young ladies who were of a marriageable age and whose fathers could afford to have them “educated” had to be trained in music, singing, drawing, dancing and the modern languages. These patrilineal and superficial demands made on young ladies apparently irked Austen to the point of ignoring them completely when she created the main female characters for her novels: none of them conformed to the prevailing social norm. Nevertheless, each of the novels ends with the main ladies having made a conquest of a gentleman who is in a socially superior position to themselves. These matches are however love and admiration driven and the lady’s accomplishment (or lack thereof) had no influence on the inevitable result. Austen’s novels have been the inspiration for numerous adaptations, and two visual adaptations of each of the chosen three novels are studied. Each of the films or BBC TV series emphasises specific aspects of the novels and accentuates the social sphere that the characters live in. Although there are differences between the different versions (novel, film and BBC TV series), the core of each story stays the same and the results are inevitable. Austen’s supposed feministic views are pointed out in this study. Conflict of opinion exists about whether Austen’s novels are examples of the patriarchal values prevalent at the time or whether they in fact question and contradict such old-fashioned ideologies. Her connection to Mary Wollstonecraft is explored and key concerns emerging from their individual works come to the fore. Ascarelli summarises the converging viewpoints of Austen and Wollstonecraft and remarks that (2004) “women are rational creatures, and […], in order for women to fulfil their potential as human beings, they must learn how to think for themselves”. The latter two concepts and their implications are highlighted in the three Austen novels chosen for the study. There is general consensus that Jane Austen is one of the most famous authors in history and her six novels are her legacy. Although each of the novels is placed in a restricted milieu, the morals and values that are raised in each still resonate worldwide in our day and age. / Dissertation (MMus)--University of Pretoria, 2014. / gm2014 / Music / unrestricted

Depuis le début du XVIII siècle, la société russe a connu des évolutions très rapides. L’entrée de la Russie sur la scène politique européenne a modifié les relations internationales, imposant à l’Europe de tenir compte de ce nouvel acteur. Cependant ce récent statut s’accompagnait aussi de profonds changements dans les comportements culturels russes : le développement du goût pour le théâtre comme divertissement privilégié d’une élite éclairée autorisait cette dernière à partager avec ses homologues européens une culture commune et un intérêt pour les mêmes débats sur le rôle, les effets et les évolutions de l’art dramatique. Pour favoriser ces échanges, les périodiques, dont la naissance et le développement en Russie interviennent presque simultanément, furent vite identifiés comme un instrument exceptionnel de communication. Ils contribuent à la transmission rapide tant de l’information récente que des éléments nécessaires à la culture générale du lecteur, en particulier en lui procurant les références considérées comme essentielles à sa participation aux discussions. Ils aident également à constituer des réseaux de journalistes et des zones d’intertextualité qui ouvrent la discussion virtuelle à l’échelle internationale.Nous souhaitons attirer l’attention sur un corpus d’articles de presse sur le théâtre, majoritairement constitué d’articles russes, peu exploités sous cet angle, publiés dans différents journaux entre 1759 et 1793. L’édition de ces articles permet de les analyser dans leur contexte européen, dans le dialogue avec leurs sources et leurs destinataires. Il s’agit d’abord de montrer comment le transfert et la réappropriation des genres journalistiques est un laboratoire formel pour les contributeurs, et un espace d’éducation à de nouvelles pratiques de lecture pour des lecteurs critiques, potentiels spectateurs avertis des théâtres. Cette analyse globale est accompagnée d’analyses de détails, centrées sur l’enjeu de la représentation des productions dramatiques nationales dans la presse européenne : l’image du théâtre russe, français ou anglais dans les journaux correspondants est un indicateur des relations entre les pays ou de l’efficacité des stratégies de politique culturelle. Au cœur de ces faisceaux d’intérêts convergents ou divergents, les problématiques de la réception des nouvelles formes théâtrales se manifestent, à la fin du siècle, dans un paysage recomposé de la presse européenne. / Since the beginning of the 18th century, society in Russia has evolved very rapidly. Russia’s arrival in the European political landscape changed international relations as European nations learned to count with this new player. This new status also brought forth profound changes in Russian cultural behaviours: as the taste for the theater as an exclusive, enlightened form of entertainment grew among the Russian elite, its members started to share with their European counterparts a common culture and an interest in debating the role, impact and evolution of drama. Periodicals, which appeared and spread in Russia almost at the same period, were quickly identified as an exceptional means to communicate and facilitate these exchanges. They enabled both the quick transmission of the latest pieces of information and the diffusion of the background elements necessary to the reader’s general knowledge – specifically by procuring them with the references considered as essential to participate in the ongoing discussions. They also helped with building networks of journalists and zones of intertextuality, which opened the virtual discussion on an international scale.We wish to shed light on a corpus of press articles relating to the theater, mostly consisting in Russian articles little read under that angle until now, which were published in a number of journals between 1759 and 1793. The publication of these articles allows us to analyse them in their European context, engaging in a dialogue with their sources and their recipients. We will show how the transfer and the reappropriation of journalistic genres provides contributors with a space to experiment, and also enables readers/critics, who are also potentially the informed spectators of the plays, to educate themselves to new reading practices. This overall approach is compounded by more detailed analysis on how national drama productions are represented in the European press: the respective image of the Russian, French or English theater in corresponding journals also reflects relationships between countries, and the efficiency of their cultural policy strategies. At the heart of those converging or diverging interests lie questions relating to the reception of new theatrical modes of expression at the end of the century in a changed European press landscape.

Notre étude vise à interroger le goût artistique des financiers du xviiie siècle, à travers l'analyse de leurs comportements face aux différents acteurs du monde de l'art. qu'ils soient financiers collectionneurs, financiers amateurs, financiers artistes, ou encore financiers mécènes, ces manieurs d'argent, parfois jalousés, parfois adulés pour leur fortune, évoluent dans une sphère complexe, où rivalité et excentricité mondaine se mêlent aux codes de bienséance et de magnificence de la société nobiliaire. sévèrement critiqués au xviiie siècle, les financiers du siècle des lumières sont pleinement réhabilités dans la société, grâce, peut-être, à leur conformisme avec les us et coutumes de leurs contemporains. cherchant à égaler leurs semblables dans le paraître, nous pouvons nous interroger sur la manière dont les financiers, qu'ils soient fermiers généraux, receveurs des finances ou encore trésoriers, collectionnent leurs œuvres. ainsi, existe-t-il une manière ' financière ' de collectionner / Our study aims at questioning the artistic taste of the financiers of the eighteenth century, through the analysis of their behaviors vis-a-vis the different actors of the world of art. Whether financial collectors, financial amateurs, financial artists, or financial sponsors, these money handlers, sometimes jealous, sometimes adulated for their fortune, evolve in a complex sphere, where rivalry and eccentricity mundane mingle with the codes of decency And the magnificence of the noble society. Severely criticized in the eighteenth century, the financiers of the age of enlightenment were fully rehabilitated in society, perhaps thanks to their conformity with the habits and customs of their contemporaries. Seeking to equal their fellows in appearance, we may question the manner in which the financiers, whether general farmers, receivers of finance, or even treasurers, collect their works. Thus, is there a 'financial' way of collecting

v anglickém jazyce The study of sources related to the folk provenance is often in terms of the Czech historiography a neglected issue. Especially the research of folk chronicles has reached the utmost boom in the middle of the nineteenth century and then also in the interwar years. Nowadays, the study does not attract much attention. Therefore, the aim of this work is to capture and systematize the existing knowledge on this subject. Moreover, it is necessary to emphasize and show some other possibilities of dealing with these particular sources because they are valuable work for contemporary historiographical studies such as microhistorical and cultural anthropological research. Although one might think that these annals have rather a small informative value for the traditional political historical events, they offer an interesting insight into everyday life of ordinary people living in the countryside those days. This fact can definitely help one understand traditions as it also represents tendencies and trends in attitudes and behaviour of the rural society those days. The main purpose of the thesis is to consider what motivated folk authors to note down their stories and experience in chronicles. The alarming fact is that the post-war historiography has caused a lot of confusion over the true...
