Book Synopsis Laughter Between Two Revolutions by : Francesco Izzo (Musicologist)
Download or read book Laughter Between Two Revolutions written by Francesco Izzo (Musicologist) and published by Boydell & Brewer. This book was released on 2013 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tells the forgotten story of post-Rossinian opera buffa, with attention to masterpieces by Donizetti and fascinating comic works by Luigi Ricci, the young Verdi, and other composers. This study represents the first substantial assessment of Italian comic operas composed during the central years of the Risorgimento -- the period during which upheavals, revolutions, and wars ultimately led to the liberation andunification of Italy. Music historians often view the period as one during which serious Romantic opera flourished in Italy while opera buffa inexorably declined. Laughter between Two Revolutions revises this widespread notion by viewing well-known comic masterpieces -- such as Donizetti's L'elisir d'amore (1832) and Don Pasquale (1843) -- as part of a still-thriving tradition. Also examined are opere buffe by LuigiRicci, Lauro Rossi, Verdi (Un giorno di regno), and others, many of which circulated widely at the time. Francesco Izzo's pathbreaking study argues that in the "realm of seriousness" of mid-nineteenth-century Italy, comedywas not an anachronistic intruder, but a significant and vital cultural presence. This important volume offers new insights into opera history and theories of comedy in the arts. It will be of interest to opera lovers everywhere and to students in music, philosophy, comparative literature, and Italian cultural studies. Francesco Izzo is senior lecturer in music at the University of Southampton.
Book Synopsis Rethinking Difference in Music Scholarship by : Olivia Bloechl
Download or read book Rethinking Difference in Music Scholarship written by Olivia Bloechl and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2015-01-08 with total page 451 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two decades after the publication of several landmark scholarly collections on music and difference, musicology has largely accepted difference-based scholarship. This collection of essays by distinguished contributors is a major contribution to this field, covering the key issues and offering an array of individual case studies and methodologies. It also grapples with the changed intellectual landscape since the 1990s. Criticism of difference-based knowledge has emerged from within and outside the discipline, and musicology has had to confront new configurations of difference in a changing world. This book addresses these and other such challenges in a wide-ranging theoretical introduction that situates difference within broader debates over recognition and explores alternative frameworks, such as redistribution and freedom. Voicing a range of perspectives on these issues, this collection reveals why differences and similarities among people matter for music and musical thought.
Book Synopsis Spheres of Conflict and Rivalries in Renaissance Europe by : Marc Laureys
Download or read book Spheres of Conflict and Rivalries in Renaissance Europe written by Marc Laureys and published by V&R Unipress. This book was released on 2020-12-14 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume is devoted to the spheres in which conflict and rivalries unfolded during the Renaissance and how these social, cultural and geographical settings conditioned the polemics themselves. This is the second of three volumes on 'Renaissance Conflict and Rivalries', which together present the results of research pursued in an International Leverhulme Network. The underlying assumption of the essays in this volume is that conflict and rivalries took place in the public sphere that cannot be understood as single, all-inclusive and universally accessible, but needs rather to be seen as a conglomerate of segments of the public sphere, depending on the persons and the settings involved. The articles collected here address various questions concerning the construction of different segments of the public sphere in Renaissance conflict and rivalries, as well as the communication processes that went on in these spaces to initiate, control and resolve polemical exchanges.

Book excerpt: Nel 1851 escono i Parerga e paralipomena e Arthur Schopenhauer, all'età di 63 anni, dopo essere scampato all'epidemia di colera che uccise il suo "grande nemico" Hegel, riceve finalmente il successo che merita. Questo piccolo grande libro e uno dei tanti tesori contenuti nell'opera che lo rese famoso. Un libro di saggezza, che smaschera i nostri vizi più comuni: il lusso, l'ostentazione, la mondanità, il conformismo, la moda, e ci invita a coltivare la nostra personalità, la nostra formazione interiore come il bene principale dell'esistenza. Grande osservatore delle umane manie e avvincente narratore delle comuni vanità, Schopenhauer ci regala anche una brillante collezione di consigli e massime per cercare in noi stessi la fonte più autentica della felicità (Aonia edizioni).

Download or read book Rivista di Estetica 85 written by AA.VV. and published by Rosenberg & Sellier. This book was released on 2024-07-05 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This issue of the 'philosophy of the city' includes articles by scholars on a range of human sciences, from media theory to aesthetics and architectural theory. Philosophy, social ontology, cultural anthropology, aesthetics, digital hermeneutics, media theory, cognitive science: these are just some of the disciplines that contribute to the philosophy of the city. This variety of approaches doesn't necessarily result in a chaotic mix. Many of the included forms of discourse belong to the same episteme, which means there are many connections and overlaps. This is true both in the literatures of reference and in the ways of answering the question of what 'the city' is. Secondly, the texts don't focus on the city itself, but on those who live in, design, imagine and think about it. Thirdly, because these texts create a place where different ideas can live together. This is like a city, where ideas change, are built on and then rebuilt. This is what Wittgenstein wrote about in his Philosophical Investigations.
Book Synopsis La Divinità Nemica by : Enrico Francot
Download or read book La Divinità Nemica written by Enrico Francot and published by L'Osssione Espressa Editore - Milano. This book was released on 2017-09-12 with total page 642 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Non è vero che in un individuo l’equilibrio si raggiunge con l’equilibrio tra la parte maschile e la parte femminile né si sa cosa tali “parti” siano davvero. Non è vero che l’anima è un archetipo che può “far crescere” un maschio soltanto se proiettato su una donna, farlo procedere dallo stato beluino a quello di “vero uomo” o, più falso ancora, da bambino ad adulto. Semmai sono le donne a essere le eterne bambine. Non è vero che un uomo possa avere pace soltanto armonizzando in unità di tutte le componenti della psiche. Al contrario, può raggiungere se non quiete almeno dignità e rispetto per se stesso soltanto imparando a navigare tra le sue contraddizioni, nel suo caos. Un altro luogo comune da sfatare? La teoria della santificante conciliazione degli opposti. Conduce a scelte devastanti per la società e assassine per l’individuo, è la culla di ogni bastardo compromesso politico, è il frutto avvelenato del pensiero di Hegel e dell’eterno oscillare tra assolutismo assassino e lassismo scatenato proprio della sua patria tedesca. Ultima chicca: nel rapporto con i sentimenti è la donna a essere handicappata, schiava com’è delle emozioni che sono causa prima dei sentimenti stessi ma in grado, se non filtrate alchenicamente, di soffocarli sul nascere, di portare ogni individuo – donna o uomo che sia – alle scelte più sbagliate della propria vita. Erich Weisz esamina tutti questi “miti” dell’età moderna, “miti” nel senso etimologico di indiscutibili verità. Sono verità assolute come in passato lo sono state quelle che affermavano essere i negri non umani, la terra piatta, le donne inferiori quando non streghe, unico dio il dio dominante della cultura militarmente superiore. Ipotesi da cui Erich Weisz deduce essere ogni guerra una guerra tra dèi combattuta con la carne e il sangue degli umani. Tra tanti luoghi comuni incrollabili, pietrificati opinioni Erich Weisz naviga per fare aprire gli occhi del lettore sul fatto che tante devastanti menzogne sono volte a riportare al potere assoluto nella cultura occidentale una divinità arcaica ostile al maschio della specie e al progredire della specie umana. Per lui tale divinità nemica è la Grande Madre. Weisz espone il proprio eterodosso pensiero attraverso un saggio romanzato in cui compaiono dèi, oltre a uomini e donne. Gli dèi intervengono nelle loro umane vicende come facevano in remoti poemi epici o come sono sentiti vivi e presenti e vengono invocati ogni giorno in famiglie religiose d’ogni credo. Gli dèi di questa saga non sono come i pupazzi di un cartone animato o le figure costruite al computer in storie contemporanee di grande successo, in film e romanzi. Non sono mere immagini commoventi. Non offrono effetti visivi speciali in 3D, roba da videogiochi. Sono dèi veri ed eterni. Sono dèi difficili da “sentire” ma turbano quando toccano l’animo. Il loro costellarsi grazie alle righe di queste libro possono disturbare molti, come disturbano le verità più profonde, le verità che si agitano nel profondo dell’inconscio. Se inascoltate, possono persino sconvolgere, irritare, fare arrabbiare. Si sconsiglia pertanto la lettura de La Divinità Nemica a conformisti e iracondi, qualunque sia la loro età e il modo di esprimere la propria sessualità.
