Thesis (Ph. D. in Spanish)--Vanderbilt University, Dec. 2007. / Title from title screen. Includes bibliographical references.

The topic of my thesis is a play Mariana Pined, written by F.G. Lorca, the most signif-icant Spanish dramatist and poet of the 20th century. My thesis is divided into two main parts. The first theoretically historic part briefly introduces author's live and surroundings that strongly influenced his work and his motivation for writing dramas. This part also shortly summarises the historical and political background in context with its direct influence on his work. In addition, I would like to outline the situation, which became the foundation for story development of the main character, historical figure Mariana Pined and her faith, not dissimilar to the faith of the author. The second part of my thesis focuses on the revelation and description of the psy-chological profile of the individual characters with regards to their meaning in the plot, their motivation and analysis of names and presented symbols. I briefly sketch the plot of the drama and breakdown some situations and their consequences. Subsequently I come to my own concept of colours, shapes, costume designs and the atmosphere. Eventually I attach varieties of visual propositions of the costume solution, its development with respect to the storyline, its transformation and I would like to bring attention to the importance and necessity of costumes in the overall viewer's experience.

A Geopoética é uma teoria transdisciplinar que versa a respeito da relação do homem com a Terra. Pela perspectiva desse olhar, pretendo verificar a existência e a convergência de elementos geopoéticos nos textos supracitados, e buscar uma compreensão mais ampla a respeito da relação do poeta-dramaturgo com o contexto geográfico espanhol pelo viés da sua dramaturgia. O corpus dessa pesquisa foi estabelecido pelo desafio de experimentar a teoria supracitada de modo a criar um campo de diálogo interdisciplinar que privilegia as linguagens cênica, dramatúrgica, poética, geográfica e científica, a partir do teatro contemporâneo. Os traços culturais universais, o olhar sobre o espaço e a paisagem, e a valoração simbólica destes, excedem as marcas do tempo e podem corroborar tais elementos na escrita de F. G. Lorca antes mesmo do surgimento desse conceito. Desse modo, configura-se a pedra angular desse doutoramento pelo viés da afluência de saberes do teatro e da geografia, da dramaturgia e da geopoética para construção / transmissão de conhecimento por meio de uma linguagem artística. Esse doutoramento segue o movimento contemporâneo de investigação científica que conecta as disciplinas Arte e Literatura à Geografia, e visa abrir outro horizonte de diálogo interdisciplinar ao aliar os princípios da Geopoética à Dramaturgia. / This PhD thesis proposes a subjective perspective of view about Federico García Lorca’s plays Mariana Pineda, Yerma, Blood Wedding and The House of Bernarda Alba, his collection Impresiones y Paysajes, and his conference Juego y teoríadelduende, according to the concept of Geopoetics, elaborated by Kenneth White. Geopoetics is a transdisciplinarytheory about the relationshipbetweenhumankind andthe planet Earth. From the perspective of this view, I intend to verify the existence and convergence of elements of geopoetics in Lorca’s literary texts, and seek a broader understanding about the poet-playwright connection with the Spanish territory. Thecorpusof this researchwas established aimingto experience with the aforementioned theoryto createa field of dialog that privilegesscenic, theatrical, poetic, geographicand scientificlanguages.Some aspects of Lorca’s texts like universalcultural traits, the way he used to observe thespace andthe landscape, and used to value its symbology, exceeded the marks of time. Furthermore, the mentioned aspects reveal the characteristicsof geopoetics in Lorca’s texts, beforeK.Whiteelaborate this concept. Thus, the cornerstoneof thisPhD thesis is setatthe confluenceof knowledgeof theater andgeography, dramaturgy and geopoeticsforconstruction /transmission ofknowledge throughan artistic language.This thesisfollows thecontemporarydynamics ofscientific researchesthat connectsArt and Literature toGeography,and aims to open another horizon of interdisciplinary dialogue by combining the Geopoetics with Dramaturgy.

This thesis studies the elegy that Federico Garcíia Lorca wrote to commemorate the death of his friend Ignacio Sánchez Mejías, fatally gored in mid-August 1934. Because the poem celebrates an historical event attention is first directed to the life of Ignacio and to the details of his fatal injury and its repercussions. Because some of these details have heen incorporated into the poem there follows a commentary on the poem which seeks to explain these references, as well as some of the images and metaphors. Some lines lack a convincing explanation but their obscurity does not hinder to any great extent an overall comprehension of the poem. The second part of the study looks at the history of the Spanish Elegy, tracing its formation and development from the eleventh-century 'Planctus' to the form used by Lorca. It is in the final chapter that Lorca's debt to history and tradition is assessed, at the same time pointing out that the poem, although based on an historical event and drawing from a long tradition of the Elegy, is very much an example of the work of a sophisticated and talented twentieth-century poet. / Arts, Faculty of / French, Hispanic, and Italian Studies, Department of / Graduate

In this paper, I analyze the musical content in Federico Alvarez del Toro's marimba concerto El Espiritu de la Tierra. This dissertation represents my analysis of features I hear in the composition, and does not reflect the composer's original compositional process. Commissioned by the governor of Chiapas, the piece was composed in collaboration with internationally renowned marimba virtuoso Zeferino Nandayapa and premiered in 1984 with the Philharmonic Orchestra of Mexico City at Festival Cervantino in Guanajuato. The work has not been published and has been mentioned only briefly in scholarship. Particular attention in the analysis is given to indigenous and folk idioms from the southern region of Mexico combined with post-modern compositional techniques. My primary argument within the dissertation is that I believe the piece demonstrates a respect for tradition and heritage while concurrently utilizing non-traditional and contemporary compositional techniques. Analytically, I argue that two basic shapes are used throughout the piece, and I argue that the many cultural references within the piece solidify a preoccupation with the lineage of southern Mexico.

This work includes the ritual, in latin "ritualis", as a set of practices of man, replete of symbolic values which have been recreated and incorporated by the film industry. Therefore the analysis of filmic work will be based on Satyricon of Petronius literary work which was written in the first century AD.

The popular festivals, the dance, the mysticism, the religion are human expressions that are used for mediation in cultural traditions of a particular social group and that began to integrate itself in the film language. From this perspective, we try to map the daily rituals and representations of individuals which are include on own time and space. In this way, the methodology used to analyse the movie and literary work will be based in the reading of the bibliographic material. Through of the analysis of the filmic work Satyricon of Federico Fellini, we will examine how far the Epicuru's philosophy of Carpe Diem is inserted in daily rituals and how the film industry uses the ceremonial language. / Este estudo tem por objetivo traçar uma discussão sobre os rituais cotidianos inseridos na obra fílmica o Satyricon de Federico Fellini. Este trabalho compreende o ritual, no latim ritualis, como um conjunto de práticas do homem, repleta de valores simbólicos aos quais foram recriadas e incorporadas pela indústria cinematográfica. Portanto, a análise da obra fílmica será baseada na obra literária Satyricon de Petronius escrita no século I d.C. A ponte para compreender dois mundos, do Clássico ao contemporâneo, é o foco no diretor e produtor do filme: Federico Fellini. As festas populares, a dança, o misticismo, a religião são expressões humanas que servem de mediação das tradições culturais de um determinado grupo social e que passou a se integrar na linguagem cinematográfica. Nessa perspectiva, nós buscamos mapear os rituais cotidianos e as representações dos indivíduos inseridos em seu próprio tempo e espaço. Desta forma, a metodologia usada para analisar o filme e a obra literária será baseada na leitura do material bibliográfico. Através da análise da obra fílmica Satyricon de Federico Fellini, nós analisaremos o quanto da Filosofia de Epicuro do Carpe Diem está inserida nos rituais cotidianos e como a indústria cinematográfica usa a linguagem ritualística.
