Although Andrew Marvell wrote and published relatively little, his poetry collects from the full range of “schools” and idiosyncratic styles present in the seventeenth century: echoes of Herbert, Donne, Milton, Traherne, Herrick, Lovelace, and Jonson, among others, permeate throughout his work. Although much of his imagery seems novel, if not strange, it is clear that Marvell has a deep engagement with several important long-running traditions. His work is conversation with Ovid, Horace, and Theocritus as much as it responds directly to the poets whose lives overlapped with his own. In his engagement with such varied sources, Marvell demonstrates an astounding degree of poetic flexibility. He is a master of imitating voice and style.

Qualifying work has interdisciplinary charakter. This work is concentrate on knowledge of history and culture of age last members of Přemysl´s dynasty and the first members of Luxembourg´s dynasty. The primary aim of work is to identify the conditions under which there is courtly literature and minnesing on the courts of these rulers. Next aim is using the comparative method to define the basic topics in prose and poetry. The secondary aim is recognizing influence of German and Latin literature domestic and foreign on literature written in Czech. The work ?Minnesing and court literature at the court of last members of Přemysl's dynasty and the first members of Luxembourg's dynasty? deals with years 1283?1306 and 1310?1333 taking into account also past years.

La tragédie-opéra de Christoph-Willibald Gluck réalise les aspirations esthétiques des philosophes des Lumières dont l’influence de l’esthétique de la sensibilité, et la quête des origines en constituent la matrice poétique. Derrière les nouveautés introduites par la tragédie lyrique réformée dans les rapports qu’entretient le texte poétique à l’élément musical, s’émancipe un objet lyrique global qui, se fondant sur la construction organique de la tragédie grecque, s’érige en modèle poétique unitif. Souhaitant se placer au service d’une pluridisciplinarité exigée par les affinités qui s’établissent entre la tragédie grecque et le drame lyrique dès son origine, la présente contribution académique vise à apporter des éclaircissements sur le rôle du modèle antique dans l’élaboration théorique et la réalisation scénique de la tragédie-opéra pré-révolutionnaire de 1774 à 1789. Alors que le recours à la tragédie grecque répond à la fois aux nouvelles idées philosophiques et à la poétique globalisante de l’œuvre lyrique réformée, des inspirations textuelles et des liens de l’ordre de la construction formelle et poétique, notamment dans la réalisation des tableaux dramatiques, revendiquent une parenté composite et immédiate. Le lien intrinsèque établi dorénavant entre le théâtre déclamé antique et le théâtre lyrique réforme, met en lumière des questions inédites ou provenant du passé sur le rôle de la musique, aussi bien dans son rapport avec le poème que dans la corrélation avec le modèle global, faisant, ainsi ressortir le concept de musique « dramatique » sous fond de querelle musicale. Le recours à la tragédie grecque, derrière une apparence de légitimation du nouveau drame lyrique, fait apparaître l’émancipation de la forme antique, dont est reproduite surtout la finalité poétique. Entre le parcours d’un compositeur-dramaturge qui s’achève avec la tragédie d’Iphigénie en Tauride (1779) et celui d’un librettiste dont les poèmes ultérieurs s’inspirent de la forme antique, la tragédie-opéra, fondée sur une conception de théâtre « éprouvé », trouve pleinement sa place dans le mouvement du néo-classicisme des Lumières. / Christophe-Willibald Gluck’s tragédie-opéra, accomplishes the aesthetic inspirations of the Enlightenment based on the new aesthetic of sensibility and the quest of origins, its federal matric elements. Behind novelties introduced by the new relation between text and music, the emancipation of a global lyric project is founded in the organic structure of Greek tragedy, becoming, therefore, a poetic and unity model. The present academic contribution, based on a bi-disciplinary exigency due to early affinities between ancient Greek tragedy and opera, comes to enlighten the role of ancient model played on the tragédie-opéra’s theoretical elaboration and stage performance from 1774 to 1779. Although ancient tragedy responds not only to new ideas introduced by the Enlightenment but to the poetics of reformed opera, textual, formal and poetic inspirations, up to generating dramatic tableaux, mark a composite and immediate affiliation. New relation between ancient dramatic and lyric theatre is established on two fundamental directions: music’s new role as a poems interpreter, a collaborator to global result and as an art claiming its autonomy. On the other hand, the references to Greek tragedy to legitimize the reformed opera, reveals the emancipation of ancient Greek tragedy. The parallel itinerary of a composer-dramatist and a librettist, finishing, for the first, and, starting, for the second, with Iphigénie en Tauride, demonstrates that the global model, based on a felt conception of Greek tragedy, finds its place in the neo-classical movement.

Le manuscrit Aix-en-Provence, bibliothèque municipale, 428/(306) contient deux ensembles de textes. Le premier, La Chanson de Bertrand du Guesclin, est un poème épique rimé retraçant la vie de Bertrand du Guesclin (1320-1380), modeste chevalier breton qui s'illustre lors de la première partie de la Guerre de Cent Ans et devient connétable de France. Cette biographie a été composée par un certain Cuvelier entre 1380 et 1385, peu après la mort du guerrier. Le second est un ensemble de sept pièces lyriques écrites en mémoire de Bertrand, dont certaines sont attribuées à Eustache Deschamps. La première œuvre, à la fois récit historique, épopée, éloge posthume, biographie et poème, tient une place de choix dans la production littéraire de l'époque, puisqu'elle est considérée comme étant la dernière chanson de geste à avoir été rédigée en français. Les poèmes à la gloire du connétable sont pleinement en adéquation avec le renouveau lyrique de la fin du Moyen Age. A travers notre travail, nous souhaitons faire découvrir ou redécouvrir ces textes mal connus. Nous fournissons, avec la transcription de tous les textes originaux du manuscrit, la description des autres témoins, une étude littéraire incluant une analyse du contexte ainsi que de nouvelles informations sur l'auteur, une analyse linguistique du texte, des notes critiques, un glossaire, un index des noms propres, la liste des proverbes et une bibliographie sélective. / The manuscript Aix-en-Provence, municipal library, 428(306) contains two different texts. The first, La Chanson de Bertrand du Guesclin, is a rimed epic poem telling the life of Bertrand du Guesclin (1320-1380), a Britain knight from a modest background who took part of the One Hundred Years War, and would become the constable of France. This biography has been written by a certain Cuvelier between 1380 and 1385, right after Bertrand's death. The second is a set of seven lyric poems written in memory of Bertrand, three of which were written by Eustache Deschamps. The first text, at the same time historical, epic, a tribute, biographie and poem, has a considerable importance in the literary production of the day as the last chanson de geste to be written in French. The poems celebrating the constable are fully in line with the lyric revival of the end of the 14th century. Through our study, we like to discover or rediscover this underrated work ; we will provide original text of the manuscript, descriptions of the other manuscripts, a literary review including a study of the context and new information about the author, a linguistic study, critical notes, a glossary, an index, a list of proverbs, and a comprehensive bibliography.

[pt] Esta dissertação tem como objetivo apresentar uma leitura das crônicas de Rubem Braga a partir do contato com o arquivo do escritor. Procurei delinear minha leitura destacando as cartas recebidas pelo escritor, tanto as de leitores quanto as de literatos. Paralelamente, voltei o foco para depoimentos e entrevistas do cronista e artigos sobre ele publicados na imprensa jornalística. Mesmo lendo as crônicas publicadas em livro, foi pela ótica do leitor empírico de jornal que busquei compreender a sensibilidade artística e afetiva do cronista, montando um contraponto entre as crônicas e as cartas dos leitores comuns ou de seus pares. Observando o jornal, suporte da recepção, encaminhei reflexões sobre o espaço modelar da crônica e, em especial, sobre algumas de suas características (lingüísticas, estilísticas, temáticas) que possibilitam a mediação entre a cultura erudita, a folclórica e a popular. Para destacar a importância literária, cultural e política do cronista, examinei a relação entre o escritor e o gênero (a crônica) e entre o gênero e o veículo (o jornal). / [en] This dissertation has as objective to present a reading of Rubem Braga`s chronicles through the contact with his archive. I have intended to delineate my reading by detaching Braga`s passive correspondence, written as far by readers as by others writers. Parallel to that, I have focused on his depositions and interviews, as well as on articles published about him in the journalistic press. Although I have been reading his chronicles published in books, it was through the optics of the empirical reader of newspaper that I have attempted to understand Braga`s artistic and affective sensitivity, trying to build up a counterpoint between the chronicles and the letters by the common readers or by his literary pairs. Observing the newspaper, support of the reception, I have directed reflections on the modelled space of the chronicle and, in special, on some of its characteristics (linguistic, stylistic, thematic) which have made possible the mediation between the erudite, the folklorical and the popular culture. To emphasize on Braga`s literary, cultural and political importance, I have examined the relation between the writer and the chronicle and between the chronicle and the vehicle (the newspaper).

[EN] This doctoral thesis, that seeks to recover the figure and work of the Spanish composer José María Ruiz de Azagra Sanz (1900-1971), connects with the current lines of research about composers that developed their creative works mainly during the Spanish postwar period. Despite being one of the most prolific and popular composers of his time, in the lyric theatre (paso dobles, couplets, revue¿) genre as well as in the Spanish cinema from the 40s and 50s, Ruiz de Azagra has been ostracised and the references to his work or to his person are rarely existing, although some academic studies and specialized publications stand out, as those by Casares Rodicio, Llisterri or Roldán Garrote, that speak about some aspects of his life and work in the lyrical theatre and film music. The main aims of this work are the presentation and the setting-up of a thorough and updated biography of the composer, as well as his work cataloguing. After a broaden field work that involved the consultation of a wide range of sources, foundations and documentation centres, a biography and a catalogue of the author are presented along with a general analysis of the musical soundtrack for the film La torre de los siete jorobados as well as scores of some compositions for lyric theatre from the 50s, in order to stablish the author's own compositional features in both genres. Finally, it is also included the recovered piano and voice score of the song Manola lá through the playback of the audiovisual recording from the aforementioned film. / [ES] La presente tesis doctoral, que pretende recuperar la figura y obra del compositor español José María Ruiz de Azagra Sanz (1900-1971), entronca con la línea de investigación actual sobre compositores que desarrollaron su trabajo creativo principalmente durante la postguerra española. A pesar de tratarse de uno de los compositores más prolíficos y populares en su época tanto en el género del teatro lírico (pasodobles, cuplés, revista¿) como en el cine español de los 40 y 50, Ruiz de Azagra ha sido relegado al ostracismo y apenas existen referencias a su obra y su persona, si bien destacan algunos estudios académicos y publicaciones especializadas realizados por Casares Rodicio, Llisterri, o Roldán Garrote que hablan de algún aspecto de su vida y obra dentro del teatro lírico y la música cinematográfica. Los principales objetivos de este trabajo son la presentación y establecimiento de una biografía exhaustiva y actualizada del compositor así como la catalogación su obra. Tras un minucioso trabajo de campo que supuso la consulta en un amplio espectro de fuentes, fundaciones y centros documentales, se presenta junto con la biografía y el catálogo del autor, un análisis general de la banda sonora musical para la película La torre de los siete jorobados así como de algunas composiciones para teatro lírico de los años 50 con el fin de establecer unas características propias de composición del autor en ambos géneros. Por último, también se aporta la partitura recuperada para piano y voz de la canción Manola lá mediante la escucha del registro audiovisual perteneciente a la película anteriormente citada. / [CA] La present tesi doctoral, que pretén recuperar la figura i l'obra del compositor espanyol José María Ruiz de Azagra Sanz (1900-1971), entronca amb la línia d'investigació actual sobre compositors que desenvoluparen el seu treball creatiu principalment durant la postguerra espanyola. Malgrat tractar-se d'un dels compositors més prolífics i populars en la seua època, tant en el gènere del teatre líric (pasdobles, cuplets, revista¿) com en el cinema espanyol dels anys 40 i 50, Ruiz de Azagra ha sigut relegat a l'ostracisme i quasi no existeixen referències a la seua obra i persona, si bé destaquen alguns estudis acadèmics i publicacions especialitzades realitzades per Casares Rodicio, Llisteri o Roldán Garrote que assenyalen algun aspecte de la seua vida i obra dins del teatre líric i de la música cinematogràfica.

Text in English with abstracts in English, isiZulu and Xhosa / Page numbering of table of contents inconsistent with dissertation. Appendix A : Full transcription only of Tip toe by Lacey May / What is it about the vocal melodies of popular music that make you want to listen again and again? This music-theoretical study applies principles of Gestalt psychology and theories of expectation to a study of melodic hooks in 21st-century popular music. The hypothesis tested here is that melodic hooks are a vital element in “catchiness”. Transcription and analysis of melodies by major recording artists is used to explore the note-to-note basis for melodic hooks. The analysis of recordings by Adele, Carly Rae Jepsen, Pharrell Williams and Robin Thicke shows how factors of repetition, familiarity, simplicity, resolution, ambiguity of key, and expectation all contribute to the sense of catchiness in music. A listener-response study was used to test the experience of catchiness in the case studies, and corroborates the hypothesis that catchiness depends principally on expectation as an overarching factor. The study also uses auto-ethnographic reflection on the practice of song-writing to give insight into strategies for creating catchy popular songs. The experience of composing a pop song, and releasing it on air, provides unique insight into the artistic process. The results of all these studies show that the perceptual principle of expectation is a crucial factor in the experience of catchiness. / Ingabe yini eyenza iminkenenezo yomculo odumile ikukhange futhi ikuhehe ufise ukuwulalela kaninginingi? Lolu cwaningo lwethiyori yomculo lusebenzisa imigomo ye-Gestalt psychology kanye namathiyori alokho okulindelekile (theories of expectation) ukucubungula nokuhlaziya amavesi eminkenenezo emnandi futhi ekhangayo yomculo odumile wekhulunyaka lama-21. Ihayiphothesisi ehlolwayo lapha wukuthi amavesi eminkenenezo emnandi futhi ekhangayo ayingxenye esemqoka kakhulu “ekukhangeni” komculo. Ukubhalwa nokuhlaziywa kweminkenenezo yabaculi abayizikhondlakhondla abaqopha umculo kuyasetshenziswa kulolu cwaningo ukucubungula inothi nenothi levesi lomnkenenezo omnandi futhi okhangayo. Ukuhlaziywa komculo oqoshiwe ka-Adele, Carly Rae Jepsen, Pharrell Williams kanye no-Robin Thicke kuyabonisa ukuthi izinto ezinjengokuphindaphinda, ukujwayeleka komculo othile, ubulula bomculo, ukuguquka kwenothi lomculo libe ngumnkenenezo ohlabahlosile (resolution), ukungaqondakali nokungaqiniseki ngokhiye womculo (ambiguity of key), kanye nalokho okulindelekile, konke kuyizinto ezilekelelayo futhi ezifaka isandla ekukhangeni komnkenenezo womculo. Ucwaningo lwendlela abazizwa ngayo abalaleli bomculo lwasetshenziswa ukuhlola ukuthi bakhangekile yini labo balaleli bomculo, kwizincwaningo-zigameko zokulalelwa komculo, futhi lolu cwaningo lwasekela lwaphinda lwaqinisekisa ihayiphothesisi ethi ukukhanga komnkenenezo womculo kuncike ikakhulukazi kulokho okulindelwe ngumlaleli womculo njengombandela-ngqangi wokuheheka nokukhangeka kwakhe. Ucwaningo lusebenzisa futhi nokuzibandakanya komcwaningi (auto-ethnographic reflection) enqubweni yokubhalwa kwamaculo ukuze athole ulwazi olunzulu futhi aqondisise kahle amaqhingasu okuqamba izingoma ezidumile ezinomnkenenezo omnandi futhi okhangayo.

Imiphumela yazo zonke lezi zincwaningo iyabonisa ukuthi umgomo wendlela-kuhumusha izinto ngokwalokho okulindelekile wumgomo osemqoka kakhulu ekufikelweni komuntu ngumuzwa wokukhangwa nokuhehwa ngumnkenenezo. / Zingantoni izandi ezimnandi zokuvuma ezivakalayo zomculo odumileyo okubangela ufune ukuwuphulaphula njalo njalo? Olu phononongo lomculo ngokwenkcazelo eyingcingane lusebenzisa imigaqo-siseko yemeko yengqondo iGestalt (Gestalt psychology) kunye neengcingane (theories) zokulindelweyo kufundo lwezandi ezinomtsalane okubambayo kumculo wenkulungwane yama-21 Ulwazi oluyingcamango engenabungqina oluhlolwe apha kukuba izandi ezimnandi zokuvuma ingoma ziyinto ebalulekileyo "ekubambeni lula".
