The use of similar musical material from one work to another in Beat Furrer’s works is what unites them in an unmistakable identity. What makes each work unique, however, is the way new networks of meaning for the material become established as the composer reworks his material for a given work. I argue that in Furrer’s Hörtheater FAMA, composed in 2004-2005, the reworking of the glissando as a compositional resource is strongly influenced by the textual subject matter, Arthur Schnitzler’s monodrama Fräulein Else. Furrer’s presentation of the musical material acts as a musical staging of the title character. And like Schnitzler’s novel, FAMA can be viewed as a comment on political and cultural issues.

This thesis tackles the theme of jealousy considered as a genuine Art de vivre in four of Colette's novels: Le Ble en herbe, La Chatte, Duo, and La Seconde. / The first part of the thesis deals with the years of learning when protagonists gradually discover love's hardships. It's through their pangs and suffering that each one of them will become aware of his or her place in society. / In the second part devoted to young couples will appear the progressive awareness, painful though necessary, that the partner is hopelessly a stranger. / The last part studies the differences in behavioral patterns of men and women in the life of the couple. With Colette the man regresses and sinks where the woman draws strength from revolt and learns solidarity in womanhood and how to go beyond herself. In Colette's feminine universe jealousy is then a positive element encompassing self awareness and mastery over oneself enabling thus through careful and appropriate use a renewal of the feeling of love.
