Until the nineteenth century, the violoncello was considered a background accompaniment instrument. By 1900 however, over eighty method books had been published for cello, and Richard Wagner and Richard Strauss were composing orchestral cello parts equal in difficulty to those of the violin, traditionally the only virtuosic string part. The emancipation from the ties of bass ostinato for the cello began with Bernhard Romberg in Dresden. The group of cellists, who came to be known as the Dresden School, included Kummer, Lee, Goltermann, Cossmann, Popper, Grutzmacher, Davidov, and other cellists that were students and colleagues of this group. The Dresden School of cellists attempted not only to bring the instrument into prominence, but to revolutionize the technique of the instrument completely. The cello pedagogues of the Dresden School achieved this by publishing their methods and advancements in technique in cello etude and method books. This efficient process of dissemination allowed for the members of the school to improve on each other's work over time. By the second half of the nineteenth century, the cello pedagogy of the Dresden School was established through the etudes published by the cellist-composers of the Dresden School, and these etudes are still considered some of the most advanced studies for cello, and are the foundation of modern cello pedagogy. At the turn of the twentieth century the Dresden School was the leading cello school in the world, and no longer tied only to the city of Dresden, but spread throughout Europe and beyond. In the publishing of their etudes, the Dresden cellists not only passed down their information to their students, but also to future generations of cellists. Descendants of the Dresden School cellists are now performing in almost every nation and teaching the ideas born in nineteenth century Germany.

La préoccupation prédominante de notre thèse est de mettre en évidence la contribution de Bernard Hàring au renouveau de la théologie morale, par une triple démarche historique, philosophique et théologique des contextes et des contenus de cette contribution spécifique. Partant des auteurs qui sont à la source de la pensée morale de Bernard Hàring, depuis Thomas d'Aquin jusqu'à Max Scheler, nous analysons les concepts clés qui servent à l'élaboration du discours moral du Magistère, notamment celui de la loi naturelle qui est au coeur des débats entourant la morale conjugale, en particulier dans l'encyclique Humanae viiae. En un second temps, nous analysons la période du concile Vatican II, où la pensée morale de Bernard Hàring a eu une grande influence, en particulier par le plus grand enracinement biblique et christologique de la réflexion morale, mais également pour une ouverture plus marquée aux problèmes éthiques contemporains. Cette influence s'est cependant butée à une sorte d'échec, autour des questions d'éthique biomédicale, et Hàring fut soupçonné de trahir l'enseignement du Magistère. Notre thèse entend montrer que, au coeur de son immense travail et des controverses qui l'ont accompagné, Bernard Hàring demeura un moraliste catholique libre et fidèle, soucieux de protéger la conscience éthique du croyant, et désireux de maintenir une profonde solidarité avec son Église.

The third volume of A.B. Marx's theory treatise Die Lehre von der musikalischen Komposition is discussed. His definitions of rondo and sonata formal types are demonstrated in the first chapter in addition to the manner of their derivation through a developmental process originating in the Liedform. Musical examples chosen by Marx are examined in chapter two. These examples, taken from Mozart's and Beethoven's piano works, are evaluated in relation to Marx's definitions of the various types of form. The third chapter is concerned with the progression from microstructure to macrostructure and the functional interrelation of the parts to the whole. In addition, Marx's opinion on musical form is compared with perspectives of philosophers from his time period and the immediate past.

A Shock wave as represented by the Riemann problem and a Point-blast explosion are two key phenomena involved in a supernova explosion. Any hydrocode used to simulate supernovae should be subjected to tests consisting of the Riemann problem and the Point-blast explosion. L. I. Sedov's solution of Point-blast explosion and Gary A. Sod's solution of a Riemann problem have been re-derived here from one dimensional fluid dynamics equations . Both these problems have been solved by using the idea of Self-similarity and Dimensional analysis. The main focus of my research was to subject the CHIMERA supernova code to these two hydrodynamic tests. Results of CHIMERA code for both the blast wave and Riemann problem have then been tested by comparing with the results of the analytic solution. / by Abu Salah M.

Dividido em três capítulos, o texto busca abordar um pouco da história de vida e do processo artístico dos fotógrafos, bem como suas influências, influenciados e a conjuntura artística que os cercava. Para tanto o trabalho se baseou em pesquisa bibliográfica acerca das fotografias becherianas, bem como da arte (especialmente a fotográfica) feita no período que vai - com maior ênfase - do início do século 20 até o início dos anos 1990 deste mesmo século. Através da pesquisa foi possível obter uma concisa definição da fotografia becheriana, sua influência junto aos fotógrafos atuais, bem como um diálogo entre a arte e a sociedade das quais foi contemporânea / Abstract: This study intends to be a general investigation about the Becher's photograph view, a german couple who devoted your lifes to the registration of industrial buildings for almost half century. Divided into three chapters, the text examine to some extent - or some fragments - of the history of life and the artistic process of the photographers, as well as their influences and the artistic situation around them. Then, this work was based on literature about the Becher's photograph and art (especially photographic) made in the period - with emphasis - from the early 20th century until the early 1990s this same century. Through research it was possible to obtain a concise definition of their photography, yours influence with the current photographers as well as a dialogue between art and society from which it was contemporary / Mestrado / Multimeios / Mestre em Multimeios

The diploma thesis is concerned with reception of the Austrian novelist and playwright Thomas Bernhard in the Czech Republic after 1989. The piece of work mainly focuses on how the writer was presented to the Czech society. The thesis also responds to the statement of the Czech Germanist Milan Tvrdík who said, in 1995, that Thomas Bernhard still awaits discovery of his writings in the Czech Republic and, so far, is an author mostly for Germanists. Theoretical framework of the work is based on the reception theory of Constance school. The research is mainly focused on the Czech translations of the Bernhard's books which contain epilogues and editorial notes, then on the reviews of the Bernhard's plays introduced in the Czech theatres between 1989 and 2019. Considering the fact that some adaptations of Bernhard's plays in our country offered an interesting link between Czech and Slovakian acting scene, an insight of the Bernhard's reception in Slovakia is a part of the work. The analysis takes into consideration external factors, too. These factors are translators, editors, or individual publishing houses Prostor, Mladá Fronta, Divadelní ústav or Odeon, which have influenced the reception of Bernhard's work in the Czech Republic. The qualitative analysis infers a picture of the Austrian playwright...
