Lendas Capixabas (2000) para violão solo, do compositor brasileiro Carlos Cruz (1936-2011), é constituída por três movimentos que representam lendas do estado do Espírito Santo: Juparanã, O Frade e a Freira e Itabira. Esta obra apresenta, por vezes, uma escrita não idiomática para o instrumento, dado que Cruz não tocava violão. Com vistas à resolução dessas passagens e das inconsistências presentes na única edição da obra, objetivamos a elaboração de uma edição críticointerpretativa de Lendas Capixabas, o que se deu a partir da comparação entre fontes, da resolução das passagens não idiomáticas e da proposição de digitações. Para tal, identificamos os manuscritos dessa obra no acervo de partituras do compositor, realizamos uma pesquisa bibliográfica sobre edições musicais, entrevistamos os intérpretes da obra e coletamos proposições de outros violonistas em alguns excertos da obra. Como resultado, elaboramos uma edição críticointerpretativa embasada por todos os parâmetros supracitados. / Lendas Capixabas (2000) for solo guitar, by Brazilian composer Carlos Cruz (1936-2011), consists of three movements that represent legends from the state of Espírito Santo: Juparanã, O Frade e a Freira and Itabira. This work presents sometimes a non-idiomatic writing for the instrument, since Cruz did not play the guitar. In order to solve these passages and the inconsistencies of the only edition of this work, we aimed the development of a critical-interpretative edition of Lendas Capixabas, from the comparison between sources, the resolution of non-idiomatic passages and the fingering proposition. Moreover, to do this, we have identified the manuscripts in the composer's scores collection, conducted a bibliographical research on musical editions, interviewed performers who have performed the work, and collected other guitarists’ proposals in some excerpts of the work. As a result, we developed a critical-interpretative edition grounded on all the aforementioned parameters.

Ce travail, consacré au rôle de médiateur culturel de l'écrivain autrichien Stefan Zweig (1881-1942), s'appuie sur la théorie des «transferts culturels». Ses identités multiples l'ont conduit à se mettre au service des personnalités littéraires d'expression française particulièrement Emile Verhaeren (1855-1916) et Romain Rolland (1866-1944). Pour mener à bien cette mission il a mis en place une stratégie littéraire constituée de réseaux. Une sorte de dynamique zweiguienne s'est créée qui englobe les correspondances, les traductions, les préfaces, les conférences, favorisant ainsi un dialogue franco-allemand voire un forum culturel européen. Sa conception de la politique et du judaïsme reste toutefois ambivalente et invite à divers questionnements essentiellement sur la montée du nazisme. / This monograph is focused on the role as cultural mediator of the Jewish Austrian writer Stefan Zweig (1881-1942) and takes an approach based on the "cultural transfers" theory. His varied identities led him to assume a mediating position among the French literary intellectuals essentially Emile Verhaeren (1855-1916) and Romain Rolland (1866-1944). In order to succeed in this mission as mediator, he created a successful literary network strategy. A Zweig's dynamic took place including correspondences, translations, prefaces, conferences and promoting in this way an intensive French-German dialog or rather a European cultural forum. His relationship to politics and Jewish movements is ambivalent and questionable essentially during the Nazism period.

Livre illustré, livre d'artiste, livre de dialogue, livre de peintre autant de dénominations pour désigner les œuvres dans lesquelles l'image est associée à la poésie. Or, ces images accompagnent également le plus souvent les publications pour la jeunesse relevant du genre poétique. Comment se construit la relation entre poésie et art (peinture, dessin, photographie, pastel…) dans ces livres pour les jeunes lecteurs et quelles lectures peuvent en faire les professeurs des écoles en classe aujourd'hui sont les deux questions qui nous intéressent. Notre réflexion porte tout d'abord sur les ouvrages eux-mêmes, publiés entre 1995 et 2012. Après avoir analysé les approches de la poésie pour l'enfance et la jeunesse que proposent la critique littéraire, l'institution scolaire et la recherche en littérature, nous établissons une typologie de cette nouvelle catégorie littéraire que nous appelons « livre de poème(s) illustré » et nous étudions le rapport entre poème et illustration dans ces œuvres. Des interrogations didactiques sont nées de cette première réflexion. Tout d'abord, dans l'enseignement au niveau élémentaire, quel usage les maîtres font-ils de ces œuvres doubles ? Ensuite, quelles compétences de lecture littéraire et de lecture d'images cette production permet-elle de développer et quel rapport à la poésie et à l'art un professeur des écoles peut-il faire construire à ses élèves grâce à ces œuvres ? Cette partie de notre étude présente une recherche exploratoire en didactique de la littérature de type qualitatif qui se fonde sur une description du discours des enseignants, d'analyses de pratiques et de dispositifs de lecture subjective expérimentés dans le cadre de la formation de maîtres. Ainsi notre cheminement général nous conduit-il de la production vers la réception du livre de poème(s) illustré par des lecteurs critiques et savants, ou moins expérimentés. / Book Illustrated, artistic book, dialogue book, painter's book so many designations when, in literary works, picture is combined with poetry. But most of the time, those pictures can be found in children books then regarded as poetry ones. How is this relation between poetry and art (painting, drawing, photography, Pastel drawing…) built in books for young readers? What readings of these books school teachers might set up today in their class? These two questions are our concern. At first, our work concerns books themselves published between 1995 and 2012. After exploring how literature criticism and research, as well as didactic and pedagogy have studied poetry for children, we will set a typology up of a new literary genre we call “ Illustrated book of poems”. Therefore, we will study relations between poems and pictures in these books. No doubt didactic issues will arise from this first thought. At first, how teachers use these dual books? Which skills of readings text and pictures does this new literary genre develop and thanks to these books, which relationship to poetry and art can a teacher help his pupils build? This part of our work is a qualitative type research in didactics of literature based on a description of teachers' speeches, pedagogy practices analysis and subjective readings set-up tested in professional teachers training. Thus, our general concern about illustrated poem(s) book is leading us from production to reception by critical and learned readers, as well as by less experimented ones.

This dissertation centers on creating a new critical edition of the Rip Van Winkle overture. One of America's earliest opera composers, George Frederick Bristow (1825-1898), completed the opera Rip Van Winkle in 1855. When he revised it twenty-five years later in 1880, the composer omitted the original overture which was then thought to be lost. A concert version of this overture exists today only in manuscript form, located at the New York Public Library. Rip Van Winkle is significant to the history of American Music because it is one of the earliest operas composed by an American, and the first to be written on American subject matter (in this case, Washington Irving's story of the same name). Adding to the work's considerable historical significance is that the overture was one of the first American pieces performed by the New York Philharmonic Society, in which Bristow was a violinist. There is currently no scholarly edition of the overture, and thus this edition will fill a significant gap in the understanding of nineteenth-century American music. This critical edition of the overture to George Frederick Bristow's Rip Van Winkle was created in order to be published and available for performance and study, shedding light on the often under-represented American opera in the United States.

This selected critical edition charts their creative processes from April 1954 through April 1957, which spans Mayröcker’s composition and editing of the core of her first poetry collection, and Jandl’s decisive turn away from a narrative into a visual and aural poetic structure. The poems included were critical to the foundational work of their seminal collections of 1966, and to the growth of the distinctive writing styles that would later bring each international renown. This dissertation presents the first known genetic editorial work on these poems, written as they were negotiating the development of their relationship and recommitting themselves to their lives and practices as artists. Illustrating their experimentation, their linguistic inventiveness, and their revision processes, as well as evidencing each poet’s evolution in style, this edition shows each poet’s synthesis and stylistic development surrounded by patterns and mysteries. Both Jandl and Mayröcker demonstrate specific types of manuscript or typescript variants that distinguish their composition and revision styles. In addition to the catalogues of these variants, correspondence and other paratextual material by both poets place their revisions in historical, anecdotal, and creative research contexts. Presenting their typescripts, manuscripts, and letters shows the relevance of extant archival material, and of Jandl and Mayröcker’s revision processes, to their poetry. Each poem is accompanied by my English-language translation, and by a catalogue of variants when available. / 2031-01-01T00:00:00Z

The Stanford-Binet: Fourth Edition represents a new dimension in intelligence testing from the traditional Binet Scales. Based on a 3 level hierarchical model this represents a significant departure from the age scale format of previous revisions. Several abbreviated batteries are suggested. This study uses the "Quick Screening Battery" consisting of four subtests (Vocabulary, Quantitative, Pattern Analysis, and Bead Memory). Results are presented as Standard Age scores (SAS) for fifteen subtests in four Areas (Verbal Reasoning, Quantitative Reasoning, Abstract/Visual Reasoning and Short-term Memory), and the global 'g' Test Composite score. Thirty kindergarten children randomly assigned to two groups took both the Stanford-Binet: Fourth Edition and the Stanford-Binet: Form L/M in a counter balanced design. Nine hypotheses and one question are discussed. Statistical calculations for data analysis were arrived at through SPSSX/PC V2.0 (Noursis 1988). Correlations between Form L/M IQ and the Test Composite (r = .72), Verbal Reasoning (r = .71) and Abstract/Visual Reasoning (r = .41) reached significance at 0.05 or better. Other correlations showed similar trends as that found in the literature. The study gives promise for the "Quick Screening Battery" as a tool for screening young children.

La communication visuelle tire profit de la grande variété d'apparences qu'une image peut avoir. En ignorant les détails, les images simplifiées concentrent l'attention de l'observateur sur le contenu essentiel à transmettre. Les images stylisées, qui diffèrent de la réalité, peuvent suggérer une information subjective ou imaginaire. Des variations plus subtiles, comme le changement de l'éclairage dans une photographie, ont également un impact direct sur la façon dont le message transmis va être interprété. Le but de cette thèse est de permettre à un utilisateur de manipuler le contenu visuel et créer des images qui correspondent au message qu'il cherche à transmettre. Nous proposons plusieurs manipulations qui modifient, simplifient ou stylisent des images pour augmenter leur pouvoir d'expression. Nous présentons d'abord deux méthodes pour enlever les détails d'une photographie ou d'une vidéo. Le résultat de cette simplification met en valeur les structures importantes de l'image. Nous introduisons ensuite une nouvelle primitive vectorielle, nommée Courbe de Diffusion, qui facilite la création de dégradés de couleurs et de flou dans des images vectorielles. Les images créées avec des courbes de diffusion présentent des effets complexes qui sont difficiles à reproduire avec les outils vectoriels existants. Dans une seconde partie, nous proposons deux algorithmes pour la création d'animations stylisées à partir de vidéos et de scènes 3D. Ces deux méthodes produisent des animations qui ont l'apparence 2D de média traditionnels comme l'aquarelle. Nous décrivons enfin une approche pour décomposer l'information d'illumination et de réflectance dans une photographie. Nous utilisons des indications utilisateurs pour résoudre ce problème sous-contraint. Les différentes manipulations d'image proposées dans ce mémoire facilitent la création d'une variété de représentations visuelles, comme illustré par nos résultats.
