An examination of his work, all designed and built for the Society of Saint Francis de Sales and the Institute of the Daughters of Mary Help of Christians, will be based on knowledge gained from each chapter of this study. The understanding of salesian pedagogy and its repercussion on the spatial structure of school buildings, the identification and characterization of the architecture of eclecticism and the presentation of Domenico Delpiano and his compositional method and projectual allow the construction of analytical criteria for the critical review of two of his works the city of Sao Paulo. / Ao trazer a luz a figura, os projetos e as obras do arquiteto e coadjutor salesiano (religioso leigo) Domenico Delpiano (1844-1920), a presente pesquisa tem como objetivo contribuir para o conhecimento e para a compreensão da arquitetura do final do século XIX e início do século XX na América do Sul, mais precisamente no período compreendido pelos anos de 1883 e 1920, respectivamente, data da chegada do profissional no Brasil e de sua morte em São Paulo. O exame de suas obra, todas projetadas e construídas para a Pia Sociedade de São Francisco de Sales e para o Instituto das Filhas de Maria Auxiliadora, será feito a partir dos conhecimentos adquiridos em cada um dos capítulos deste estudo. A compreensão da pedagogia salesiana e o seu rebatimento na estrutura espacial dos edifícios escolares, a identificação e caracterização das Arquiteturas do Ecletismo e a apresentação de Domenico Delpiano e de seu método compositivo e projetual permitirão a construção de critérios analíticos para o exame crítico de duas de suas obras na cidade de São Paulo.

One of the essential difficulties encountered while preparing a piece for a pre-professional player is defining the piece's technical challenges and doing exercises or etude studies accordingly. Based on this fact, in my thesis, I described the technical challenges of Edouard Nanny's Dragonetti A Major concerto under the headings and suggested technical studies suitable for these difficulties. The titles represented are string crossing, bow strokes, thumb position and vertical-horizontal approaches, harmonic arpeggios and horizontal playing in harmonics, intonation and shifting, and double stops. In the last step of each heading, I associate these technical studies with an excerpt from a more advanced piece than this concerto in the double bass repertoire. Accordingly, the thesis aims to define a working path for Nanny's Dragonetti A Major Double Bass Concerto and, at the same time, to be a preliminary preparation for the more technically challenging works of the repertoire.

Containing over forty portraits, the frescoes by Domenico Ghirlandaio in the cappella maggiore of S. Maria Novella provide the opportunity to investigate the function and context of Quattrocento portraiture. Burkhart’s famous notion of Renaissance “individualism,” usually seen as a sufficient explanation for the rise of this genre, is rejected in favour of corporate, especially family, motivations and modes of address. This necessitates an examination of consorterial traditions and patterns of patronage which are registered in the Tornaquinci chapel and enabled the acquisition of patronage rights to the chapel by the entire consorteria in October 1486. A biography is also supplied of Giovanni Tornabuoni, the man who paid for the decoration of this, his family monument, and closely supervised its progress.

Sculpteur du règne de Louis XIV, Jean-Baptiste Théodon (1645-1713) se rattache à l’école française autant qu’à l’école romaine de sculpture. Formé auprès de Charles Le Brun à la Manufacture royale des Gobelins, il y rencontre Jean-Baptiste Colbert qui devient son premier mécène. Protégé par ce dernier qui l’envoie en Italie, Théodon rejoint en 1677 l’Académie de France à Rome où il sculpte pour Louis XIV et le château de Versailles. Parallèlement il prend part à la vie académique romaine. Membre actif de l’Accademia di San Luca et de la congrégation des Virtuosi al Pantheon, Théodon devient l’un des sculpteurs les plus recherchés de la Rome de la fin du Seicento, sollicité par les papes Innocent XII et Clément XI à Saint-Pierre de Rome et au Latran, et par les congrégations et les ordres religieux au Gesù et au Monte di Pietà. Appelé par Louis XIV, il revient à Paris en 1705 et contribue, durant ses dernières années, à la décoration des Maison royales de Marly et de Meudon. Abordant avec brio l’allégorie et la sculpture animalière pour Colbert, la mythologie et le genre historique pour Louis XIV, la sculpture funéraire et l’art du portrait pour Christine de Suède, le sculpteur s’illustre avant tout dans l’art religieux. Brillante personnalité artistique du XVIIe siècle, Théodon méritait une étude. Nous avons considéré sa vie et sa carrière, analysé sa manière et établi le corpus exhaustif de son œuvre. / Jean-Baptiste Théodon (1645-1713) was a French sculptor of the reign of Louis XIV who belonged both to the French and Italian schools of sculpture of the Seventeenth-Century. In the 1670’s during his training at the ‘Manufacture des Gobelins’ he worked under the supervision of Charles Le Brun and met the minister Jean-Baptiste Colbert. In 1677 he joined the French Academy in Rome where he carved garden sculptures for royal estates and for his protector Colbert. Early in his Roman carrier he was made member of the Academy of St Luke and member of the Congregazione dei Virtuosi al Pantheon where he met Bernini, the architect Carlo Fontana and the painter Carlo Maratta. Appreciated by the Pope Innocent XII he obtained several commissions at Saint-Peter’s (Baptismal chapel, Monument to Christine of Sweden) and at the same time he worked for the Jesuits at the Sant’Ignazio chapel at the Gesù. As one of the most significant sculptors of the end of the Roman Seicento he dedicated his last years in Rome to the pope Clement XI and the papal basilica before his return to Paris in 1705 where he worked for the Sun King and the ‘Maisons’ of Meudon and Marly. With the same maestria Jean-Baptiste Théodon carved allegories for Colbert, mythological and historical figures for Louis XIV, funeral sculptures and portrait for Christine of Sweden as well as works of art for Roman churches. The Ph.D. dissertation consists of a study of the career of the sculptor with an analysis of his artistic manner and its evolution from Paris to Rome. In addition the thesis includes the complete ‘catalogue raisonné’ of his works, sculptures and drawings.

Although Abstract Art dominated the scene following the Second World War, four artists Bruno Goller, Domenico Gnoli, Konrad Klapheck and Peter Klasen concentrated, quite independently of one another, on the representational. Indeed their contributions may be classified as part of a wave appearing during the twentieth century, “Magical Monumentalism”. Objects from everyday life were taken and then isolated, enlarged, reduced, abstracted and defamiliarized, while still remaining recognisable in their own right. They each selected certain things, which were then variegated within their range of works. Visual moments and shop window scenes in the case of Goller, the gigantically magnified details of everyday life items with Gnoli, Klapheck’s personified machines and Klasen’s closed and impersonal objects. There exists basic criteria unifying the four artists: man defines himself through his own created works. Goller, Gnoli, Klapheck and Klasen negate man for the most part, or make him anonymous as an individual. They employ everyday objects at a time where Abstract Art dominates the scene, thereby monumentalizing them on differing degrees of scale. Yet in spite of the down to earth, rational appearance and superiority, the items used are magical in the sense of the magic of things. The definition of the objects is one of precise, perfect, while simultaneously showing them as open and rational. By means of picture analysis and interpretation, these features are highlighted. Definitions and historical background are also part and parcel of this. An approach to the theme of man, monumentality and the relevance to the present day situation, always bearing in mind the magical aspects of the work, is an integral part of the thesis. Until now these artists were never brought together in such detail.

Was die Zeitung für die elegante Welt im titelgebenden Zitat 1803 am Beispiel einer Oper von Domenico Della Maria beschreibt, ist am 1801 eröffneten Theater an der Wien kein Sonderfall: Gerade die zu dieser Zeit populären Werke des postrevolutionären französischen Musiktheaters werden in ihren Wiener Fassungen nicht nur den üblichen Adaptierungsprozessen wie Übersetzung, Kürzung oder Einlage unterzogen, sondern systematisch in ihrer Orchestrierung verändert. Dieser klangliche Stil des Hauses unterscheidet sich insbesondere in der Behandlung der Blasinstrumente von den französischen Vorlagen ebenso wie von der Praxis anderer Wiener Theater. / The quotation in the title here is taken from the journal Zeitung für die elegante Welt of 1803, and it refers to an opera by Domenico Della Maria. But what it describes was no isolated case at the Theater an der Wien, which had opened in 1801. The works of post-Revolutionary French music theater that were popular at this time were not merely subjected to the usual processes of adaptation as Viennese versions (such as translating the texts, making cuts or adding new material), for their orchestration was also systematically altered. The treatment of wind instruments that created the sound of this »house style« was different not just from the French originals themselves, but also from the practices of other Viennese theaters of the day.

Domenico Lalli (eigentlich: Sebastiano Biancardi, 1679-1741) wird hauptsächlich als venezianischer Librettist wahrgenommen. Sicherlich liegt dies auch an seiner gelegentlichen Zusammenarbeit mit Antonio Vivaldi. Allenfalls ist noch von seiner Tätigkeit in Neapel die Rede. Tatsächlich finden sich in Beständen verschiedener früherer Hofbibliotheken eigenhändige Textbücher von Domenico Lalli, so beispielsweise in Dresden (Mscr.Dresd.Ob.48.e, Ob.48.f, Ob.48.g, Ob.48.ga) und in München. Ausgehend von solchen Textfunden werden Lallis Beziehungen zu Höfen im Heiligen Römischen Reich Deutscher Nation in den Blick genommen.
