No primeiro capítulo, procuro mostrar o desenvolvimento do Iluminismo na sua relação com o teatro nacional alemão. Lessing é, sem sombra de dúvida, o autor decisivo neste sentido, pois reunia em si não só o artista criativo, mas também o teórico. Para explorar essa potente combinação, é necessário que se estude sua produção artística associada à sua teorização estética, política e educacional. Um aspecto particularmente interessante a ser notado é a complexa coexistência de aspectos nacionalistas e cosmopolitas nos personagens e ideais por ele propostos. Os textos discutidos, embora não esgotem sua obra, são indispensáveis para uma compreensão do Iluminismo lessinguiano: a peça juvenil Os judeus, o diálogo Ernesto e Falco, as teses sobre A educação da humanidade, e sua obra-prima Natan, o sábio, que se inspira na figura de Moses Mendelssohn. No segundo capítulo, passo a examinar, entre outros escritos, o ensaio Jerusalém de Moses Mendelssohn, no qual ele ataca a autoridade eclesiástica e estatal, além de advogar a missão monoteísta do Judaísmo e defender a obtenção de direitos para os judeus. Tendo previamente examinado a peça por ele inspirada, não deixa de ser instigante ver o próprio Mendelssohn ou ¿Natan¿ falar em suas próprias palavras, dando-nos, assim, um certo senso de realidade. No terceiro capítulo, procuro mostrar o interesse filosófico de A flauta mágica de Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, com um enfoque sobre os personagens como Papageno, Tamino, Pamina, Papagena e Sarastro. Por algum motivo, este Singspiel parece levantar questões candentes da modernidade como machismo, racismo, e homossexualidade, apesar de sua aparente falta de coerência narrativa. Admitindo o caráter esotérico da narrativa, acompanho, no decorrer da peça, a expressão literal desses conflitos permeando a interação dos personagens. No quarto capítulo, procuro delinear a figura kantiana do ser humano (Mensch) iluminado partindo das diferenças antropológicas concretas, mas posteriormente explicitando os conceitos envolvidos na teorização sobre seu suposto esclarecimento. Ao contrário dos autores anteriores, nos quais se pode falar de uma construção estética de personagens, em Kant essa construção dos tipos antropológicos passa a ser teórica, mesmo se baseada em fatos provindos da literatura de viagem. A prova disso está na sua tentativa, explícita, de construir um conceito de raça humana a partir do critério da cor da pele / Abstract: The main purpose of this dissertation is to show how ideal characters were constructed by major German philosophers and writers during the second half of the eighteenth century. Chapter One (¿Lessing¿) is concerned with establishing and clarifying the relation between Enlightenment philosophy and literature in the German-speaking world. G. E. Lessing is certainly the most critical author in this respect, as he was both a major creative artist and a theoretician to boot. To fully appreciate this powerful combination, it is necessary to study his plays in light of his aesthetic, political and educational ideas and vice versa. It is especially interesting to see the tense coexistence between concerns for national German political and linguistic unity on the one hand, and, on the other hand, a yearning for cosmopolitan, abstract, humanity (the so-called Mensch). Although not exhaustive, my examination covers several texts which are crucial to an adequate understanding of Lessing¿s Enlightenment project: the play, written in his youth, The Jews, the Masonic dialogue Ernest and Falk, the philosophical and theological theses in The education of humanity, and his masterpiece Nathan, the wise, whose title character was inspired by Moses Mendelssohn. Chapter Two (¿Moses Mendelssohn as Nathan¿) reviews, among other writings, the essay Jerusalem, in which Moses Mendelssohn attacks church and state authority, claims a monotheist mission for Judaism and argues for Jewish rights. It is particularly enlightening to compare Lessing¿s fictional Nathan to Mendelssohn himself. Chapter Three (¿Mozart and The magic flute¿) is an attempt to show the philosophical relevance of W. A. Mozart¿s The magic flute, while focussing on characters such as Papageno, Tamino, Pamina, Papagena, Monostatos and Sarastro. For some reason, this Singspiel raises several controversial issues of modernity such as male chauvinism, racism and homosexuality, despite its apparent lack of narrative coherence. I acknowledge the esoteric character of the narrative but follow the literal expression of these conflicts as the characters interact throughout the play. Chapter Four (¿Kant and the Mensch¿) deals with I. Kant¿s pre-critical anthropology and relates it to his concept of the enlightened Mensch. Contrary to the previous authors, however, who were concerned with an aesthetic construction of characters, in Kant¿s case, the construction of anthropological types is, properly understood, theoretical, even if it relies on data gleaned from the then popular travel book literature. Proof of this is his explicit attempt to construct a concept of human race upon the criterion of skin coloration / Doutorado / Filosofia / Doutor em Filosofia

Hummel's Concerto for Trumpet (Concerto a Tromba principale) is overtly operatic and is stylistically reminiscent of Mozart's Don Giovanni. Using the methodology of Leonard Ratner and Wye J. Allanbrook, it is possible to explore gesture and rhetoric in Hummel's Concerto for Trumpet and Mozart's Don Giovanni, and achieve a deeper understanding of the stylistic similarities shared between the two works. In the third movement, dance is the most significant link to Don Giovanni. In the second movement, Hummel alternates between the emotions of Donna Anna and Don Ottavio as they appear in act 1, scene 13. The first movement makes extensive use of contrasting topics identified with buffa and seria characters to advance the musical narrative. Comparing Hummel's concerto and Mozart's opera is a hermeneutical approach that illuminates several performance practice implications. Knowing the expressive similarities and rhetorical strategies common to both works clarifies several issues, such as tempo, ornamentation, and above all, expression. Though Mozart's Don Giovanni and Hummel's Concerto for Trumpet are unequal in significance, it would be valuable to any interpretation of Hummel's concerto if the performer and audience acknowledge that the work is rhetorically and stylistically similar to Mozart's Don Giovanni.

My lecture serves as a critical examination of the Six Sonatas Op. 3, KV. 10-15 by W.A. Mozart. I will engage the variances between the first edition of Op. 3 and those by Joseph Bopp and Louis Moyse edited specifically for the flute in hopes of providing another perspective for students, performers, and pedagogues alike. This study will (1) provide background information regarding the creation of KV. 10-15, (2) include a brief analysis of each sonata, (3) compare adaptions between the first edition, according to NMA, and two modern flute transcriptions, and (4) produce two new transcriptions. My new transcriptions of Sonatas KV. 10 and 13 represent a closer interpretation to the first edition and alerts students and teachers to the differences between the editions by Joseph Bopp and Louis Moyse to that of the first and NMA editions. The goal is to stimulate performers to reappraise their approach to this particular repertoire and to encourage more authentic performances of these engaging sonatas.

Type de dépôt #1 (version complète) / Ce mémoire porte sur la réactualisation de l’opéra d’un point de vue féministe en s’appuyant sur l’exemple de la mise en scène de Don Giovanni (1787-1788) de Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (1756-1791). Cette étude montre comment il est possible, en s’appuyant sur les outils de l’analyse musicale et littéraire, de créer une mise en scène qui respecte les principales caractéristiques du livret et de la partition – conservant ainsi ce que Jean-Jacques Nattiez appelle des « fidélités locales » – tout en permettant au public d’aujourd’hui de s’identifier à une œuvre composée il y a plus de deux siècles, et de s’y projeter. Pour ce faire, l’enjeu est de proposer une adaptation de l’opéra qui tient compte du contexte politique et social actuel, axé ici sur le féminisme. Prenant pour exemples les trois personnages féminins de Don Giovanni, le mémoire est construit sous la forme d’un triptyque, par ordre chronologique d’apparition des personnages : Donna Anna, Donna Elvira, Zerlina. Ainsi, il sera possible d’établir un point de vue s’apparentant au female gaze dans cet opéra, jusqu’ici majoritairement interprété par le biais du male gazing (regard masculin). Le premier chapitre propose donc l’analyse de deux airs phares du personnage de Donna Anna. Cherchant à l’abstraire de l’entité quasi fusionnelle qu’elle constitue avec son fiancé Don Ottavio, l’analyse harmonique et littéraire s’intéresse aux passages où Donna Anna est susceptible d’affirmer son indépendance. L’analyse de ces mêmes scènes dans deux mises en scènes récentes de l’œuvre vise ensuite à vérifier si les caractéristiques qui ressortent de cette analyse sont mises en valeur dans les productions. Enfin, dans un processus s’apparentant à la recherche-création, je propose pour les passages étudiés des avenues de mise en scène qui tiennent compte des analyses effectuées dans les premières parties du chapitre. Les deux autres personnages féminins sont abordés suivant le même procédé, cherchant d’un côté à dé-ridiculiser celui de Donna Elvira – trop souvent considérée comme « hystérique » – et, de l’autre, à rendre au personnage de Zerlina son côté stratège, habituellement camouflé dans les productions « traditionnelles » où la jeune femme n’est représentée que par son côté paysan. / This thesis explores the feminist actualization of opera, using Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart’s (1756-1791) Don Giovanni (1787-1788) as a case study. This study shows how it is possible, by using musical and literary analytical tools, to create a performance that respects the main characteristics of the libretto and the score—thus preserving what Jean-Jacques Nattiez calls “local loyalties”—while allowing today’s audience to identify with a work composed over two centuries ago. To do so, I propose an adaptation of the opera that takes into account the current political and social context, focused here on feminism. Taking as examples the three female characters of Don Giovanni (Donna Anna, Donna Elvira, and Zerlina), the thesis is built as a triptych in which the characters are studied in the chronological order of their apparition. The approach is based on a female gaze point of view, contrasting with the male gazing interpretation which has been dominant in the operatic world until now. The first chapter analyses two major arias of Donna Anna. In order to free her from the almost fusional entity she forms with her fiancé Don Ottavio, the harmonic and literary analysis centers around passages where she is most likely to show independence. The analysis of these same scenes in two recent stagings of the work then aim to verify whether the characteristics that emerge from this analysis are highlighted in the productions. Finally, in a process of research-creation, I propose staging directions for the same passages that take into account the findings made throughout the chapter. The two other female characters are approached following the same process, seeking on the one hand to de-ridiculize the character of Donna Elvira—too often considered “hysterical” —and, on the other hand, to highlight Zerlina’s sense of strategy, which is usually downplayed in “traditional” productions in which the young woman is solely represented by her peasant character.
