Thesis (Ph.D.)--Boston University / The purpose of the investigation of Johann Ludwig Bach's seventeen liturgical cantatas and the "Trauermusik" was to establish their position within the historic development of the German sacred cantata between the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, to study their stylistic and formal characteristics, and to present an objective picture of the work of this generally unknown cousin of Johann Sebastian Bach. The study of these works was made from microfilms of the original manuscripts now in the libraries of Berlin and Marburg. Texts and chorale melodies were traced through examination of the Bible, collections of sacred poetry, hymnals, and chorale melody collections. Works of a similar character by contemporary composers were analytically examined for comparison and to help place Johann Ludwig's compositions in the overall historic development of the cantata form. Historical and documentary data were obtained from numerous literary sources dating form the early eighteenth century to the present. [Truncated]

Thesis (Ph.D.)--Boston University / Although Harley Granville-Barker has been considered one of the most significant figures in the modern English theatre ever since the early twentieth century, no comprehensive account of his varied achievements has heretofore been written. It is the purpose of this study to provide such an account--to describe and evaluate his contributions to the theatre as actor, producer, dramatists, and critic. Incorporated inna biographical sketch in this dissertation is an account of Barker's work as an actor. After appearing in various contemporary plays and revivals of Shakespeare, Barker made his greatest success as an actor at the Court Theatre from 1904 to 1907, playing the heroes of many of Shaw's plays and of his own. Judging by contemporary accounts, he excelled in realistic portrayals of men of charm and intellectual passion, and his voice was very effective in lyrical moods as well as in repartee. [Truncated]
