A Melopoética do sertão do Moxotó : uma análise da poesia oral do Cordel do Fogo EncantadoAlmeida, Adriana Soares de 05 April 2013 (has links)
This dissertation aims to investigate the relations between music and literature in songs that make the work of the pernambucano group Cordel do Fogo Encantado in order to understand the meanings of these interartistics compositions and how they reinvent the crystallized traditions about the image of the Brazilian backland. Therefore, we chose a corpus consisting of seven songs by Cordel do Fogo Encantado (Profecia, Profecia Final, Chover, A Matadeira, Pedra e Bala,Vou saquear a tua feira e Morte e Vida Stanley), chosen not only for their intersection between literature and music, since the whole work of this group has such intersection, but for their expression of the Brazilian backland, the place of origin of the group. Several implications of this approach appeared and to answer them we followed the
pioneering work of Steven Paul Scher, who under the name Melopoetic (melos = singing + poetic) includes studies of musical-literary comparativism, seeking connections between the arts. Along the ideas of this author, the notion of Cultural Melopoetic present in the works of Solange Ribeiro de Oliveira, also served as basis. Furthermore, we consider appropriate the dialogue between melopoetic and the concept of oral poetry developed by medievalist Paul Zumthor, comprising the study of orality not only in literature, but in different manifestations in which the voice is the driving force, as well as his idea of performance coupled with the work of Ruth Finnegan under the same topic. The work of Cordel do Fogo Encantado, uniting the afro indigenous music in the backland of Moxotó to the sound of violas and rhythms of popular folklore was increased of literature to portray the backland where tradition and
modernity are intertwined, creating a peculiar work. The analytical process sought to demonstrate how the presence of literature and music manifests itself in the songs worked and how this connection is responsible for transcreate a hybrid backland that insists on reinventing itself / Esta dissertação se propôs a investigar as relações entre música e literatura nas canções que compõem a obra do grupo pernambucano Cordel do Fogo Encantado de forma a compreender os sentidos destas composições interartísticas e como elas reinventam as tradições cristalizadas sobre a imagem do sertão. Para tanto elegemos um corpus composto por sete canções do Cordel do Fogo Encantado (Profecia, Chover, Profecia Final, A Matadeira, Pedra e Bala,Vou saquear a tua feira e Morte e Vida Stanley), escolhidas não apenas por sua intersecção entre literatura e música, visto que toda a obra do grupo apresenta tal relação, mas sim por sua expressão do sertão, lugar de origem do grupo. Várias implicações surgiram desta abordagem e para respondê-las nos valemos do trabalho pioneiro de Steven Paul Scher, que sob a denominação de Melopoética (melos = canto + poética) abarca os estudos de
comparativismo musical-literário, buscando as conexões entre as artes. Junto às ideias deste autor, a noção de Melopoética Cultural presente nas obras de Solange Ribeiro de Oliveira, também nos serviu de base. Além disso, consideramos pertinente o diálogo entre a melopoética e o conceito de poesia oral desenvolvido pelo medievalista Paul Zumthor que compreende o estudo da oralidade não apenas na literatura, mas nas diversas manifestações em que a voz é a força motriz, bem como a sua ideia de performance aliada aos trabalhos de Ruth Finnegan sobre o mesmo tema. A obra do Cordel do Fogo Encantado, unindo a música afro-indígena do sertão do Moxotó à cantoria de viola e aos ritmos do folclore popular foi acrescida da literatura para retratar um sertão em que tradição e modernidade estão
imbricadas, criando uma obra peculiar. O processo analítico por nós utilizado buscou demonstrar como se manifesta nas canções trabalhadas a presença da literatura e da música e como esta conexão é responsável pela transcriação de um sertão híbrido que teima em se reinventar

Previous issue date: 2013 / Resumo: A presente tese toma como corpus de análise o romance alemão Doutor Fausto, escrito por Thomas Mann entre os anos de 1943 a 1947. Objetivando reconhecer e apontar nele possíveis influências e aspectos pertencentes diretamente ao universo composicional da música erudita, este texto - pautando-se no processo metodológico de comparação entre a literatura e a música apresentado por Steven Paul Scher e Solange Ribeiro de Oliveira - relaciona o referido romance de Mann com a musicografia do compositor austríaco Arnold Schönberg; e propõe, a partir de tais relações, uma leitura de Doutor Fausto à luz das ideias e teorias expostas pelo filósofo Theodor W. Adorno em seus livros Filosofia da Nova Música e Dialética do Esclarecimento / Abstract: The present thesis takes as corpus the analyze of the german novel Doktor Faustus written by Thomas Mann between 1943 and 1947. Aimed to recognize and point out in it possible influences and aspects arising directly from the erudite music compositional universe - and based on the methodological process to compare literature to music presented by Steven Paul Scher e Solange Ribeiro de Oliveira - this work relates Mann's novel with the musicography of the Austrian composer Arnold Schönberg; it also proposes, from such relations, a reading of Doktor Faustus enlightened by Theodor W. Adorno's theories from the books Philosophy of New Music and Dialectic of Enlightenment / Doutorado / Literatura Geral e Comparada / Doutor em Teoria e História Literária

"Running like big daft girls" : a multi-method study of representations of and reflections on men and masculinities through "The Beatles"King, Martin S. January 2009 (has links)
The aim of this thesis was to examine changing representations of men and masculinities in a particular historical period (“The Sixties”) and to explore the impact that this had in a period of rapid social change in the UK and the legacy of that impact. In order to do this, a multi-method study was developed, combining documentary research with a set of eleven semi-structured interviews. The documentary research took the form of a case study of The Beatles, arguing that their position as a group of men who became a global cultural phenomenon, in the period under study, made theme a suitable vehicle through which to read changing representations of masculinities in this period and to reflect on what this meant for men in UK society. The Beatles’ live action films were chosen as a sample of Beatle “texts” which allowed for the Beatles to be looked at at different points in the “The Sixties” and for possible changes over that time period to be tracked. Textual analysis within discourse analysis (based on a framework suggested by van Dijk [1993], Fairclough [1995] and McKee [2003]) was used to analyse the texts. Ideas advanced by the Popular Memory Group (1982) about the interaction of public representations of the past and private memory of that past were influential in the decision to combine this piece of documentary research with interviews with a sample of men, in an age range of 18 to 74. The interview stage was designed to elicit data on the perception of the participants of the role of representation (with particular reference to the Beatles) of masculinities on them as individuals and their ideas about how this may have had an impact in terms of longer term social change. Ehrenreich’s (1983) notion of a male revolt in the late 1950s, an emergence of a challenge to established ideas about men and masculinity, was also influential, particularly as it is an idea at odds with the “crisis in masculinity” discourse (Tolson, 1977; Kimmel, 1987; Whitehead, 2002) at work in a number of texts on men and masculinity. Examining further Inglis’ (2000b : 1) concept of The Beatles as “men of ideas” with a global reach, the chosen Beatle texts were examined for discourses of masculinity which appeared to be resistant to the dominant. What emerged were a number of findings around resistance, non-conformity, feminised appearance, pre-metrosexuality, the male star as object of desire and The Beatles as a global male phenomenon open to the radical diversity of the world in a period of rapid social change. The role of popular culture within this process was central to the thesis, given its focus on The Beatles as a case study. However, broader ideas about the role of the arts also emerged with a resultant conclusion that “the sixties” is where a recognition of the importance of representation begins as well as a period where representations of gender (as well as class and race) became more accessible due to the rise in popularity of TV in the UK and a resurgence in British cinema. The thesis offers a number of ideas for further research, building on the outcomes of this particular study. These include further work on the competing crisis/ revolt discourse at work in the field of critical men’s studies, ascertaining female perspectives on representations of masculinities and their impact, further work on the Beatles through fans and an application of some of the ideas at work in the thesis to other periods of British history.

As Written: Literary Configurations of Musical Ineffability in the Nineteenth and Twentieth CenturiesKalal, Peter January 2021 (has links)
As Written presents an investigation of selected literary configurations of musical ineffability in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. By putting literary parables into constellation with media technologies and texts from philosophy, critical theory, aesthetics, and media theory, the dissertation seeks to better understand the ways in which literature engages, discloses, disrupts, and determines musical discourse at times of aesthetic, political, and technological shift.
The dissertation begins by establishing the “cryptographic” ineffable that emerges in early German Romanticism through readings of Novalis. These readings suggest this formulation of ineffability to arise out of an instrumentalization of instrumental music that emphasizes the symbolic relations of musical notation over music’s sound—this in service of a literary and philosophical project that strives to transcend its own medial and epistemological limits. Subsequent chapters will analyze alternative configurations of ineffability in writings by Richard Wagner, Theodor Adorno, Thomas Mann, and Helmut Lachenmann, but vestiges of this “originary” Romantic configuration will remain. Indeed, while the literary texts analyzed in these later chapters will respond to the medial, technical, and technological developments of their historical contexts, more than merely disclosing discursive formulations of musical ineffability, they, like Novalis’ Heinrich von Ofterdingen, will be shown to enact these formulations in forms of linguistic, sonic, and material absence through their complex narratologies and poetologies. How, this dissertation will ask, might literature’s ability to accommodate changing contexts in these configurations ultimately suggest musical ineffability as a conduit through which a music-discursive tradition that emerges in literature around 1800 is able to preserve itself into the twentieth century?

Music lessons and the construction of womanhood in English fiction, 1870-1914Watson, Anna Elizabeth January 2014 (has links)
This thesis explores the gendered symbolism of women's music lessons in English fiction, 1870-1914. I consider canonical and non-canonical fiction in the context of a wider discourse about music, gender and society. Traditionally, women's music lessons were a marker of upper- and middle-class respectability. Musical ‘accomplishment' was a means to differentiate women in the ‘marriage market', and the music lesson itself was seen to encode a dynamic of obedient submission to male authority as a ‘rehearsal' for married life. However, as the market for musical goods and services burgeoned, musical training also offered women the potential of an independent career. Close reading George Eliot's Daniel Deronda (1876) and Jessie Fothergill's The First Violin (1877), I discuss four young women who negotiate their marital and vocational choices through their interactions with powerful music teachers. Through the lens of the music lessons in Emma Marshall's Alma (1888) and Israel Zangwill's Merely Mary Ann (1893), I consider the issues of class, respectability and social emulation, paying particular attention to the relationship between aesthetic taste and moral values. I continue by considering George Du Maurier's Trilby (1894) alongside Elizabeth Godfrey's Cornish Diamonds (1895), texts in which female pupils exhibit genuine power, eventually eclipsing both their music teachers and the artist-suitors for whom they once modelled. My final chapter discusses three texts which problematize the power of women's musical performance through depicting female music pupils as ‘New Women' in conflict with the people around them: Sarah Grand's The Beth Book (1895), D. H. Lawrence's The Trespasser (1912) and Compton Mackenzie's Sinister Street (1913). I conclude by looking forward to representations of women's music lessons in the modernist period and beyond, with a reading of Katherine Mansfield's ‘The Wind Blows' (1920) as well as Rebecca West's The Fountain Overflows (1956).
