Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Heroic Female: Redefining the Role of the Heroine in the Tragedies of Vittorio Alfieri fills a void in critical inquiry on the works of eighteenth-century tragedian Vittorio Alfieri – perhaps the most important figure of the Italian Enlightenment – by exploring in depth the often neglected female characters and their function within the tragic structure. In this re-reading of the Alfierian tragedies, the author redefines the role of the heroine, and challenges traditional analyses that marginalize the female character and orient her to an abstract ideal characterized by fragility and tragic victimization. The author argues persuasively that, in Alfieri’s search for psychological realism, he undermines traditional assumptions of gender roles by his modern portrayal of the tragic characters. The heroine’s different orientation towards reality endows her with intuitive and intelligent reasoning that contradicts eighteenth-century views of women as catalysts of anarchy and disorder. Alfieri’s tragic heroines are represented also as surprisingly independent and powerful. The resultant image of determined, active, and intelligent women refutes the traditional critical view. In exploring Vittorio Alfieri’s pre-modern sensibilities in the representation of his tragic heroines, this book is an important contribution to the growing body of critical works that study the representation of gender in post-Renaissance and pre-modern Italian literature. This book will be of particular interest to: scholars of Italian literature, especially the Enlightenment and Romantic periods; scholars of 18th-century European, American and other literatures; scholars of 18th-century history and sociology; and Women’s Studies and Gender Studies scholars.

Download or read book Opera, Tragedy, and Neighbouring Forms from Corneille to Calzabigi written by Blair Hoxby and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 2024-03-01 with total page 307 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the nineteenth century, some of the most influential historians have portrayed opera and tragedy as wholly distinct cultural phenomena. These historians have denied a meaningful connection between the tragedy of the ancients and the efforts of early modern composers to arrive at styles that were intensely dramatic. Drawing on a series of case studies, Opera, Tragedy, and Neighbouring Forms from Corneille to Calzabigi traces the productive, if at times rivalrous, relationship between opera and tragedy from the institution of French regular tragedy under Richelieu in the 1630s to the reform of opera championed by Calzabigi and Gluck in the late eighteenth century. Blair Hoxby and his fellow contributors shed light on “neighbouring forms” of theatre, including pastoral drama, tragédie en machines, tragédie en musique, and Goldoni’s dramma giocoso. Their analysis includes famous masterpieces by Corneille, Voltaire, Metastasio, Goldoni, Calzabigi, Handel, and Gluck, as well as lesser-known artists such as Luisa Bergalli, the first female librettist to write for the public theatre in Italy. Opera, Tragedy, and Neighbouring Forms from Corneille to Calzabigi delves into a series of quarrels and debates in order to illuminate the history of seventeenth- and eighteenth-century theatre.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume of collected essays explores the premise that Plutarch’s work, notwithstanding its amazing thematic multifariousness, constantly pivots on certain ideological pillars which secure its unity and coherence. So, unlike other similar books which, more or less, concentrate on either the Lives or the Moralia or on some particular aspect(s) of Plutarch’s œuvre, the articles of the present volume observe Plutarch at work in both Lives and Moralia, thus bringing forward and illustrating the inner unity of his varied literary production. The subject-matter of the volume is uncommonly wide-ranging and the studies collected here inquire into many important issues of Plutarchean scholarship: the conditions under which Plutarch’s writings were separated into two distinct corpora, his methods of work and the various authorial techniques employed, the interplay between Lives and Moralia, Plutarch and politics, Plutarch and philosophy, literary aspects of Plutarch’s œuvre, Plutarch on women, Plutarch in his epistemological and socio-historical context. In sum, this book brings Plutarchean scholarship to date by revisiting and discussing older and recent problematization concerning Plutarch, in an attempt to further illuminate his personality and work.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "You know from seeing it that Herzog was up to something strange in filming Heart of Glass. Now the mystery is clarified. Alan Greenberg peers into the heart of darkness of the great artist." —Roger Ebert&“Mesmerizing . . . as poetic and mysterious as the film itself.&”—Jim JarmuschThis intimate chronicle of the visionary filmmaker Werner Herzog directing a masterwork is interwoven with Herzog's original screenplay to create a unique vision of its own. Alan Greenberg was, according to the director, the first &“outsider&” to seek him out and recognize his greatness. At the end of their first evening together Herzog urged Greenberg to work with him on his new film--and everything thereafter. In this film, Heart of Glass, Herzog exercised control over his actors by hypnotizing them before shooting their scenes. The result was one of the most haunting movies ever made. Not since Lillian Ross's classic 1950 book Picture has an American writer given such a close, first-hand, book-length account of how a director makes a movie. But this is not a conventional, journalistic account. Instead it presents a unique vision with the feel of a novel--intimate, penetrating, and filled with mystery. Alan Greenberg is a writer, film director, film producer, and photographer. He is also the author of Love in Vain: A Vision of Robert Johnson. Werner Herzog is considered one of the world's greatest filmmakers. His books include Conquest of the Useless and Of Walking in Ice.

Download or read book Byron at the Theatre written by Peter Cochran and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2009-03-26 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Byron at the Theatre is a collection of essays by a wide spectrum of European scholars, dealing with Byron’s dramas in a variety of ways. It starts with a long and detailed introduction on Byron and Drury Lane, incorporating much recent research done on the riotous and squalid conditions of the theatre in Regency London – conditions which go far towards explaining Byron’s distaste for the idea of theatrical success. There follows a chapter about the influence on Byron of Vittorio Alfieri, a vital subject which has not been written about thoroughly for over a century, and which goes far to explain what motivated Byron’s experiments in classical drama. The main body of the essays discuss Byron’s plays from thematic perspectives, and examine Byron himself as a figure in the dramas of Goethe and Stoppard. There is a chapter on Rudolph Nureyev’s little-known Manfred ballet, and another on Byron himself as a dramatic performer. Byron at the Theatre is a vital book for anyone interested in this much-discussed but little-understood aspect of Byron’s life and work.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lord Sarahu Nagarazan 1st June 1988 was born as a human incarnation to the earth. And he has come for the welfare of world. What he has suffered in this human incarnation is as follows. Beginning with the vicissitude of his Love. He did continuously 8 years DhyÃna or hypnotism for his first lover Uma. In these 8 years, last 4 year's Suma came into his life and infringed in DhyÃna or hypnotism. Then he continued DhyÃna or hypnotism for Uma. After 8 years instead of getting the power of hypnotism, he received the grace of illumination on god and world. After his matriculation he knocked the door of Kannada film industry. There he cheated by film writers, directors and technicians. Then at the age of 18 and 20 he worked in 3 movies (sandalwood, Kannada) as writer and assistant director. And also worked in some documentary projects. At the age of 18 to 33 he written and published 151 novels, 5 short stories, 1 drama, and 30 English Articles. And at the age of 26 to 30 he research and published 92 research articles and he received 260 research awards and honorary doctorate awards and at the age of he achieved 1926 new world records and breaking world records. He have a deep imagination power at the time he was studying 5th standard. The proof for this is the only novels he have written when he was in the 8th, 9th and 10th standard. But, here, there is no provision to explain the summary of said novels. The scope of my imagination can understand the only those people who have studied his novels, because that novels contains the series of imaginations and subjects that the Hollywood films can also take inspiration from this work. He can write story, screenplay, dialogues and scene paper within 4 hours. However you demand he can write in that style in Hollywood. Example: if you give a subject likes 'stone' or 'stick' or any other think or you just show anything around us by pointing finger, he can write on the topic story, screenplay, dialogues and scene paper within 4 hours in a day only by pen or he tell it orally as your wish. He can write as you say within 4 hours in a day. And he can direct Hollywood movies without a script, it's my confidence. If you provide an opportunity to write a Hollywood story with any theme he can write it in front of you spontaneously without giving time for thinking. Lonely without anybody's help. He can write that Hollywood script within fraction of second's right from foundation to climax.
