Previous issue date: 2014 / Resumo: Música e poesia. Como as duas artes interagem, que significados são criados, reiterados, modificados e como a performance se constrói e se enriquece a partir desta interação é a reflexão que impulsiona o presente trabalho. Propomos uma análise músico-textual visando a interpretação e performance de quatro Lieder do período Romântico construídos sobre o poema Gretchen am Spinnrade de J. W. Goethe. Serão contempladas as canções dos compositores Louis Spohr (Gretchen), Franz Schubert (Gretchen am Spinnrade), Carl Loewe (Meine Ruh ist hin), e Richard Wagner (Meine Ruh ist hin). Para isso, é feita uma introdução sobre o gênero Lied e sobre o poeta. Em seguida, é proposta uma análise literária do poema, que servirá de base para a interpretação das canções. São abordados aspectos conteudísticos e formais do texto, assim como sua contextualização dentro da peça Fausto I, de que foi extraído. Em seguida, é feita uma análise musical das obras, com foco nas relações texto-música presentes e contemplando aspectos tanto da linha vocal quanto do acompanhamento. Ao longo da análise são feitas sugestões interpretativas baseadas nas relações texto-música / Abstract: Music and Poetry. How the two art forms interact, what meanings are created, emphasized, modified and how the performance is built and enriched from this interaction is the reflection that impels the present work. A text-music analysis aiming towards the interpretation and performance of four Lieder - settings from the Romantic period of the poem Gretchen am Spinnrade from J. W. Goethe is presented here. The settings of Louis Spohr (Gretchen), Franz Schubert (Gretchen am Spinnrade), Carl Loewe (Meine Ruh ist hin), e Richard Wagner (Meine Ruh ist hin) will be approached. After introductory considerations about the genre Lied and about the poet are made, an analysis of the poem is presented, which will ground the interpretation of the songs. Content and formal aspects of the text are considered, as well as its contextualization in the play Faust I, from where it was extracted. Afterwards, a musical analysis of the songs is presented, focusing on the existing text-music relations and taking aspects from the vocal line as well as the accompaniment into consideration. During the analysis interpretative suggestions are made, based on the text-music relations / Mestrado / Praticas Interpretativas / Mestra em Música

A holy people: a study in the ecclesiology of Andrew MurrayNeethling, Johann Christiaan January 1975 (has links)
The thesis seeks to show Andrew Murray's growing understanding of what it meant to be the elect of God in contrast to other prevailing notions. In his confrontation with the Trekker communities, the majority of whom were rigid Calvinists, stressing a divine election based on the notions of biological and cultural identity, Murray found little of the holy behaviour which ought to characterize the people of God. The elect should be seen to be the elect by their fruits. Instead there was divisiveness, discrimination, party spirit and other forms of ungodliness. Faced with the immensity of the task in identifying the true Church and building God's people up in holiness, Murray began to sense the necessity of another 'dimension' within the Church's regular means of grace of preaching, the sacraments, and discipline. The revival of 1860, focussed Murray's attention in a new and vital way on the work of the Holy Spirit in breathing new life into the Church and in empowering believers to live lives pleasing to God. The 'indiscriminate' effects of the Holy Spirit's work convinced Murray that the Gospel and thus the Church was not the possession of the white colonist, Dutch or English, but that the black and brown man had an equal claim on the Gospel and as much right to become a member of Christ's Church. Murray's understanding of the Christian life as continual abiding in Christ by the power of the indwelling Holy Spirit meant that the believer came to have the mind of Christ and to partake of His holiness. This holiness evidenced itself in the believer having Christ's concern for the lost. Mission, therefore, became this supreme end of the Church. The struggle with the forces of liberalism raised the new issue that unbelievers could no longer be simply 'heathen blacks' or English but most of all Dutch. The support of the civil courts of those disciplined by the Church brought the whole problem of ecclesiology to the fore and led Murray to the conclusion of the necessary separation of the Church from the State. Murray's discovery that in various ages, nations and Church traditions there were those with the same passionate desire for God' s holiness, led him into an increasing awareness of the catholicity of the Church. True holiness demanded the love and unity of all God's children. Murray's ecclesiology was a biblically-based one at a time when communities were beginning to be formed by other than biblical notions and principles and by a people who were trying to pack more into the notion of a people of God than Scripture gave warrant for. The emphasis for which Murray stood made for an ecclesiology that simply could not be confined.

Creating the Modern Spanish School: Fortuny, Madrazo, and ManetRalston, Daniel Sobrino January 2024 (has links)
The taste for all things Spanish that swept France in the 1860s had profound, if misunderstood, effects on modern French and Spanish art. French artists were fascinated by both the perceived exoticism of contemporary Spain as well as the newly popular paragons of its art historical past.
The lessons of Velázquez and Goya, in prevailing accounts of modernism, were learned best by avant-garde artists like Édouard Manet (1832–1883), whom a contemporary critic went so far as to call the “Spaniard of Paris.” My dissertation contends, instead, with the other Spaniards of Paris, successful expatriate artists who worked between the French capital, Rome, and Madrid. These artists, led by Mariano Fortuny (1838–1874), considered themselves the rightful interpreters of the Spanish tradition.
I argue that Fortuny and his circle shrewdly positioned their work in relation to French ideas about Spanish art, both avant-garde and conservative, as well as Spain’s developing national art historical narratives, even though they often lived beyond their nation’s borders. I demonstrate that these artists, whose seemingly unassuming genre paintings were undergirded by a pronounced but hitherto unexamined nationalism, sought to shape the Spanish art historical tradition; present themselves as its inheritors; and influence the collecting of Spanish art, especially in the United States, in the final third of the nineteenth century.

Gothic Disembodiment, Supernatural Voices: Gender, Voice, and Performed Disembodiment in Music and MediaFerrari, Gabrielle January 2024 (has links)
This dissertation presents an interdisciplinary investigation into the construction of gender-transgressive supernatural voices in Gothic media, drawing on works in queer and feminist theory, voice studies, and performance studies.
Spanning two centuries and case studies including Gian Carlo Menotti’s The Medium, art and popular song including Franz Schubert’s “Erlkönig” and Kate Bush’s “Leave It Open,” literary works by Charles Brockden Brown and Vernon Lee, and the Spiritualist séances of Louisa Ann Meurig Morris and Jesse Shepard, I argue that these gender-transgressive voices offer a striking alternative theorization of the “disembodied voice” that, in direct contrast to techno-determinist narratives, is created in performance through unsettling the voice-body-gender relationship.
I locate the origins of the connection between gender-transgressive and supernatural or disembodied voices in the early nineteenth century, where rapidly changing ideas about of gender and the body collided with a parallel retheorization of voice as both an important locus for understanding social difference and a site of identity formation. The Gothic became an important mode to explore and destabilize the relationship between voice, body, and gender, particularly for voices that did not conform to increasingly rigid gender expectations; high male and low female voices are consistently used to mark alterity in Gothic media across genres, as are other queer-coded vocal acts.
This context sets the stage for what I term performed disembodiment; moments in which a voice is understood as being disembodied, despite the visible presence of the vocalizer. My work argues that some forms disembodiment can be produced not by making a performer’s body absent, but precisely through marking the body’s presence and setting the performing body at odds with the voice through gender-transgressive techniques.
One of the primary methods of effecting this performed disembodiment is through “cross-gender vocalization,” wherein pitch, timbre, and articulation are manipulated resulting in, for example, female bodies that appear to produce “male” voices. My dissertation thus argues that “disembodiment” can be produced not only via technologies but through contextual strategies of performance, involving both performers and audiences in the creation of the disembodied voice

Totalitarismo y ficción. Goya y sus espectros en el cine de Guillermo del ToroPonce Tarre, Jorge Esteban 10 July 2023 (has links)
[ES] El mexicano Guillermo del Toro, ha contribuido a enriquecer la estética y mitología del
cine fantástico y de terror. Gracias a los seres dentro de sus filmes, e inspirados en los
espectros de las pinturas y grabados de Francisco de Goya y Lucientes, el realizador
presenta, mediante ensoñaciones maravillosas, los traumas y conflictos que se han
arrastrado durante la historia; sobre todo en épocas de conflictos bélicos y sociales. La
investigación que aquí se plantea, busca reivindicar el valor estético y ético de la obra de
Goya dentro del cine contemporáneo. Así se propone un recorrido iconológico
comparativo que rescata la influencia del arte del aragonés en los largometrajes del
latinoamericano. / [CA] El director mexicà Guillermo del Toro, ha contribuït a enriquir l'estètica i la mitologia del
cinema fantàstic i de terror. Gràcies als éssers dins dels seus films, i inspirats en els
espectres pictòrics de les pintures i gravats de Francisco de Goya y Lucientes, el
realitzador presenta, mitjançant ensomnis meravellosos, els traumes i conflictes que s'han
arrossegat durant la història; sobretot en èpoques de conflictes bèl·lics i socials. La
investigació que ací es planteja, vol reivindicar el valor estètic i ètic de l'obra de Goya
dins del cinema contemporani. Així es proposa un recorregut iconològic comparatiu que

aesthetics and mythology of fantasy and horror films. Thanks to the beings in his films,
inspired by the pictorial spectrums of the paintings and engravings of Francisco de Goya
y Lucientes, the director presents, through fantastic reveries, the traumas and conflicts
that have dragged through history, especially in times of war and social conflicts. The
research proposed here seeks to vindicate the aesthetic and ethical value of Goya's work
within contemporary cinema. Thus, a comparative iconological tour is proposed that
rescues the influence of the art of the Aragonese in the Latin-American movies. / Ponce Tarre, JE. (2023). Totalitarismo y ficción. Goya y sus espectros en el cine de Guillermo del Toro [Tesis doctoral]. Universitat Politècnica de València. https://doi.org/10.4995/Thesis/10251/194753

Found Missing: Fugitive Slaves, Jailer ads, and Surveillance in Antebellum New OrleansGarbutt, Tara L 20 December 2017 (has links)
This paper explores fugitive slave advertisements from the pages of the New Orleans Argus in 1828. As the main repository for runaway slave advertisements in New Orleans at the time, the Argus played a critical role in policing and surveillance of the city’s enslaved population just as New Orleans was becoming the largest slave market in the South. Using the Argus as well as historians’ accounts of the city, this thesis argues that as the market in enslaved people grew, slave owners depended upon local jailers in tandem with papers like the Argus, to police the enslaved population. The large volume of these advertisements, however, also testifies to enslaved people’s frequent rejection of bondage. This thesis is designed primarily as an index of the existing ads for 1828 with the aim of assisting further research into these sources.

The Disordered Era: Grotesque Modernism in Russian Literature, 1903 – 1939Hooyman, Benjamin January 2023 (has links)
This dissertation argues that Russia’s confrontation with modernity generated a series of sociocultural paradigm crises that gave rise to a modernist grotesque aesthetic tradition, uniting over forty years of artistic production into a coherent literary movement. While close reading the work of Fyodor Sologub (The Petty Demon [Мелкий бес]), Andrei Bely (Petersburg [Петербург]), Evgenii Zamyatin (At World’s End [На куличках]), and Velimir Khlebnikov (“The Crane” [Журавль]), I argue that prerevolutionary modernist writers utilized grotesque modes of representation to depict a world where the former cornerstones of pre-modern Russian identity are fracturing under the pressures of modernity. In contrast to extant scholarship, I argue the 1917 Revolution is not a fundamental break in Russia’s experience of the crisis of modernity, but an extension, and an exacerbation of it.
Though discourses of Russian identity formation will be rapidly recodified around the Soviet project, the same underlying grotesque aesthetic devices used by pre-revolutionary authors are taken up by a new generation of Soviet-era modernists. Mikhail Zoshchenko’s parody in Michel Sinyagin (Мишель Синягин) elicits skepticism about yesterday’s unenlightened masses becoming today’s new Tolstoys. Andrei Platonov’s anomalous depictions of the Russian periphery in his Juvenile Sea (Ювенильное море) are still inhabited by monsters, too far from Soviet nodes of power to be assimilated into the national ideological project. And Konstantin Vaginov (in the novel Goat Song [Козлиная песнь]) and Evgenii Shvarts (in the play The Shadow [Тень]) capture the prevalence of superfluous intellectuals with ruptured psyches, frustrated by their unsuccessful attempts to adapt to the new Soviet reality.
