Abstract

"Processions formed an essential part of the presentation of liturgical ceremonies during the Middle Ages. They marked the openings and closings of services and the ritual movement from place to place within the church as the ceremony required that specific actions occur at a specific location. Processions always received musical accompaniment. This edition assembles the processional chants that served as the background to these liturgical movements from repertories that originated across the Latin West primarily during the eleventh and twelfth centuries, and presents them in a modern, critical edition with full commentary. It includes representative examples from the Aquitanian, Beneventan, Italian, Spanish, Nonantolan, Roman and northern French repertories, as well as those from German-speaking lands and the Pontificale Romano-Germanicum. In the Introduction, Clyde W. Brockett offers full discussion of the sources, the generic limits of the repertory and the modal orientation of the melodies."--

Abstract

As Festas do Espírito Santo nos Açores. Um Estudo de Antropologia Social procura interrogar um dos mais complexos e sedutores rituais que integram o calendário cerimonial em Portugal. Desenvolvendo-se a partir da observação intensiva dos Impérios numa freguesia da ilha de Santa Maria, o estudo percorre depois, numa perspectiva comparativa, outras ilhas açorianas. Com base no relevo que tem nas Festas do Espírito Santo um conjunto muito diversificado de dádivas e contra-dádivas de alimentos cerimoniais, o autor propõe uma interpretação do ritual assente na consideração simultânea da sua dimensão religiosa, da sua relação com os principais círculos de relacionamento social e do vínculo que ele exibe com as formas de conceptualização do tempo nas comunidades estudadas. Aspectos controversos como a procura de prestígio individual através das despesas requeridas pelos festejos ou as relações entre povo e clero em torno do ritual são também examinados. Pela natureza dos problemas discutidos, As Festas do Espírito Santo nos Açores constitui não apenas uma contribuição para uma Antropologia Social do arquipélago, mas uma oportunidade para o reexame de alguns dossiers mais genéricos relacionados com o estudo antropológico das comunidades rurais em domínio europeu.

Abstract

Compostelle, La Mecque, Lourdes, Jérusalem, les pèlerinages connaissent un regain inattendu en ce début de XXIe siècle. Les raisons de ce succès ne manquent pas : volonté de rompre avec un quotidien pesant, essor des voyages, souci de retrouver des traditions, recherche d'une symbiose avec la nature, fonction identitaire de la religion, etc. Le pèlerinage a beau être vécu souvent comme un acte individuel, il s'agit incontestablement d'un phénomène de société. C'est pourquoi, jadis comme aujourd'hui, les pouvoirs publics ont très souvent mis en œuvre une « politique du pèlerinage ». Il s'agit non seulement d'assurer l'ordre public, mais également de capter au profit des autorités civiles les foules pèlerines, voire les détourner de leur objectif spirituel initial. Plus récemment, les partis et mouvements politiques de masse instituèrent des pèlerinages non religieux, à la fois actes identitaires et manifestations de force. Dans la continuité de travaux portant sur les couleurs, les emblèmes et les symboles de la politique, des historiens se sont retrouvés à l'occasion d'un colloque international et pluridisciplinaire pour explorer les différentes modalités de la politisation des pèlerinages. Prenant pour objet des lieux et des moments variés, ils en ont décrypté le sens politique, implicite ou explicite. Ces études du langage non verbal de la politique mettent en évidence l'importance des gestes et des attitudes, des objets et des monuments. L'ascèse du chemin, le dépassement de soi, les rites de participation, l'héroïsme du but tant convoité et enfin atteint, tout ne conduit-il pas à faire du pèlerinage une métaphore du combat politique ?

Abstract

For festivals and fairs, identity design is an integral aspect and a starting point of organisation. Be it tackling a different theme each year for a recurring event or starting something new, attractiveness, energy and distinctive designs are sought out, while freshness for long-running festivals and fairs is a must. A process that juggles a vast variety of aspects including logo, souvenirs, custom application design, environment setting, type design and more, Graphic Fest shines the light on the comprehensive and systematic approach festivals and fairs take.

Abstract

Art for the workers explores the mythology and reality of post-revolutionary proletarian art in Russia as well as its expression in the festive decorations of Petrograd between 1917 and 1920. It covers this brief period chronologically, and so permits a close inspection of the development of artistic policies in Russia under the Provisional Government followed by the Bolsheviks. Specifically, this book focuses on the pre-and post-revolutionary debate about the nature of proletarian art and its role in the new Socialist society, particularly focusing on festive decorations, parades and mass performances as expressions of proletarian art and forms of propaganda.
