Abstract

The manuscripts scores contained in this collection further extend knowledge about Meyerbeer's non-operatic compositions-instrumental, choral and occasional. These totally unknown works by a great operatic master range from a substantial cantata in the style of a dramatic monologue (for tenor solo with chorus and brass orchestra), through a brassy celebratory processional march, to a brief unaccompanied chorus of welcome. All the pieces are linked by their association with the various Germa...

Abstract

Cet ouvrage fait suite au colloque « L'habit d'emprunt : supercheries littéraires et tissages des arts » organisé en 2009 à l'université Paris-Est-Créteil et à la médiathèque l'Astrolabe de Melun. Il aborde les productions contemporaines (littéraires, picturales, musicales, photographiques) en faisant l'hypothèse qu'elles avancent masquées. Dans les œuvres contemporaines, les costumes, les reflets et les illusions sont plus que des thèmes : ils hantent les récits, de l'intrigue jusqu'aux personnages et aux narrateurs, des mots jusqu'aux figures de style. Ils sont les marques de dédoublements, de vols, d'emprunts, mais aussi du visible, de parure, d'invisible, voire de nudité. Quels sont les représentations et les enjeux esthétiques et éthiques des emprunts visibles ou invisibles. Quels sont les procédés poétiques, narratifs, interartistiques et philosophiques dont disposent les écrivains et les artistes ? Telles sont les questions qu'abordent les auteurs qui ont contribué à cet ouvrage.

Abstract

"As the first comprehensive study of Buckingham's patronage of the visual arts, this book is concerned with the question of how the painted image of the courtier transferred strategies of social distinction that had originated in the masque to the language of painting. Establishing a new grammar in the competing rhetorics of bodily self-fashioning, this recast notion of portraiture contributed to an epistemological change in perceptions of visual representation at the early modern English court, in the course of which painting advanced to the central art form in the aesthetics of kingship." (cover - p. 4).

Abstract

Literary geographies is an exciting new area of interdisciplinary research. Innovative and engaging, this book applies theories of landscape, space and place from the discipline of cultural geography within an early modern historical context. Different kinds of drama and performance are analysed: from commercial drama by key playwrights to household masques and entertainment performed by families and in semi-official contexts. Sanders provides a fresh look at works from the careers of Ben Jonson, John Milton and Richard Brome, paying attention to geographical spaces and habitats like forests, coastlines and arctic landscapes of ice and snow, as well as the more familiar locales of early modern country estates and city streets and spaces. Overall, the book encourages readers to think about geography as kinetic, embodied and physical, not least in its literary configurations, presenting a key contribution to early modern scholarship.

Abstract

This book explores new developments in the dialogues between science and theatre and offers an introduction to a fast-expanding area of research and practice.The cognitive revolution in the humanities is creating new insights into the audience experience, performance processes and training. Scientists are collaborating with artists to investigate how our brains and bodies engage with performance to create new understanding of perception, emotion, imagination and empathy. Divided into four parts, each introduced by an expert editorial from leading researchers in the field, this edited volume offers readers an understanding of some of the main areas of collaboration and research: 1. Dances with Science 2. Touching Texts and Embodied Performance 3. The Multimodal Actor 4. Affecting Audiences Throughout its history theatre has provided exciting and accessible stagings of science, while contemporary practitioners are increasingly working with scientific and medical material.

Abstract

In Arthur Schnitzlers Traumnovelle und in Stanley Kubricks filmischer Adaption Eyes Wide Shut ist die Maske zentrales Darstellungsmittel von Schaulust, Blick und Scham. So, wie die Maske das Gesicht verhüllt, so versucht der Beschämte, sich vor dem enthüllenden Blick des Anderen zu verbergen. Ausgehend von der aktuellen psychoanalytischen Scham-Theorie wird hier erstmals gezeigt, wie die spezifische Medialität von Scham und Maske nicht nur die Figuren, sondern auch die ästhetischen Strategien in Text und Film maßgeblich prägt und reflektiert. Dies betrifft u.a. die Wahrnehmung des Zuschauers/Lesers, die filmische und literarische Inszenierung des Blicks, die Visualität und die Frage der Darstellbarkeit. »Zusammenfassend handelt es sich bei dem vorliegenden Band um eine gründliche, fleißige und überzeugende Studie. Besonders hervorzuheben ist der interdisziplinäre Ansatz, der Psychoanalyse, Literaturwissenschaft und Filmanalyse fruchtbar miteinander verbindet. Daher läßt sich das Buch meines Erachtens insgesamt durchaus für den interessierten Leser empfehlen.« Sonja Czekaj, MEDIENwissenschaft, 1 (2008) »[Das] Wechselspiel zwischen der Position des Voyeurs und der peinlichen Demaskierung stellt Freytag überzeugend und plausibel dar [...].« André Schwarz, literaturkritik.de, 1 (2009)

Abstract

First published in 1952, Frantz Fanon's 'Black Skin, White Masks' is one of the most important anti-colonial works of the post-war period. It is both a profound critique of the conscious and unconcious ways in which colonialism brutalises the colonised and a passionate cry from deep within a black body alienated by the colonial system and in search of liberation from it. This volume is the first collection of essays specifically devoted to Fanon's text. It offers a wide range of interpretations of the text by leading scholars in a number of disciplines. Chapters deal with Fanon's Martinican heritage, Fanon and Creolism, ideas of race and racism and new humanism, Fanon and Sartre, representations of Blacks and Jews, and the psychoanalysis of race, gender and violence. Contributors offer new ways of reading the text and the volume as a whole constitutes an important contribution to the growing field of Fanon studies.

Abstract

In 1545 Henry VIII created a Revels Office within the royal household and appointed Sir Thomas Cawarden, one of the gentlemen of the Privy Chamber, as its Master. In so doing he set a precedent for the production of revels at court for the next century. Some historians have only recently examined the revels in their historical context, but none has attempter, as W.R. Streitberger does, to study court entertainments in terms of the growth and development of the Revels organization and its adaptation to different political climates at court. Streitberger presents evidence in the form of a calendar of court entertainments and appendices based on the primary documents; he provides an explanation of their occasion, form, and purpose of these entertainments in their historical context; and he explains the development of the revels organization from the temporary appointment of producers at the beginning of their period into a government office by the mid-sixteenth century. Streitberger details the adaptation of the Revels organization to the very different courts of the various monarchs, and explains how their personalities, principles, and policies shaped that adaptation.

Abstract

Two issues central to the transition from the Kory to the Chos n dynasty in fourteenth-century Korea were social differences in ruling elites and the decline of Buddhism, which had been the state religion. In this revisionist history, Juhn Ahn challenges the long-accepted Confucian critique that Buddhism had become so powerful and corrupt that the state had to suppress it. When newly rising elites (many with strong ties to the Mongols) used lavish donations to Buddhist institutions to enhance their status, older elites defended their own adherence to this time-honored system by arguing that their donations were linked to virtue. This emphasis on virtue and the consequent separation of religion from wealth facilitated the Confucianization of Korea and the relegation of Buddhism to the margins of public authority during the Chos n dynasty.
