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

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

Qui pourrait penser qu'en cette aube du XXIe siècle puissent vivre, au centre même de la Côte d'Ivoire, trois peuples oubliés sur lesquels l'Occident ne sait presque rien, les Wan, les Mona et les Koyaka? Qui serait capable aujourd'hui de leur attribuer une quelconque création plastique, alors que leur art est foisonnant, encore bien vivant, mais jamais représenté dans les musées (à l'exception d'une unique statuette au musée Barbier-Mueller)? Comment l'expliquer? C'est ce que propose le présent ouvrage d'un anthropologue (Harvard University) qui met ici en lumière les inventions stylistiques, clé de voûte d'un vaste laboratoire artistique, fondamental pour comprendre les autres créations du centre de la Côte d'Ivoire. Premier numéro de cette collection : Les Gan du Burkina Faso (NTS 36102).
