Book Synopsis The Use of the International Phonetic Alphabet in the Choral Rehearsal by : Duane R. Karna
Download or read book The Use of the International Phonetic Alphabet in the Choral Rehearsal written by Duane R. Karna and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2012 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Use of the International Phonetic Alphabet in the Choral Rehearsal, Duane R. Karna brings together 30 essays by experts from around the world to describe how the character symbols of the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA) can be used by singers in the choral rehearsal. Holding firmly to the belief that basic instruction in IPA character is part of a choir's training, Karna and his contributors see enormous potential for choirs to expand considerably their foreign-language repertoire and save considerable rehearsal time. The Use of the International Phonetic Alphabet in the Choral Rehearsal is the ideal primer for choral directors and choirmasters as well as choir members.

Book Synopsis My Mission to Spain by : Claude G. Bowers
Download or read book My Mission to Spain written by Claude G. Bowers and published by Pickle Partners Publishing. This book was released on 2018-09-03 with total page 394 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based upon his diary entries, personal contacts, conversations and dispatches, My Mission to Spain chronicles American historian and politician Claude G. Bowers’ time in Spain as U.S. Ambassador. This fascinating historical record, which was first published in 1954, details Bowers’ travels throughout the country, as well as the hectic politics that foreshadowed the Spanish Civil War. “For six years, during the most dramatic period in Spanish history since the crusade against the Moors, I was accredited Ambassador to Spain by President Roosevelt. I loved Spain and had admiration and affection for the Spanish people. “In driving thousands of miles through this magic land I came to love its mountains looming on the horizon everywhere, enveloped in their blue or purple haze, the quaint old dusty villages soaked with history, the old cathedrals with their works of art, the romance of the aged cities, the laughing, happy people. “Across the stage will pass distinguished non-political figures of international renown—Benavente, the dramatist; Unamuno, the philosopher; Madariaga, the historian and biographer; Belmonte, the famous matador; Zuloaga, the painter; Margarita Xirgu, the actress; Argentina, the dancer; and Ramón del Valle Inclán and Pérez de Ayala, the novelists. “The political leaders in the forefront behind whom the totalitarian conspiracy was hatching are all here as I knew them—Azaña, Lerroux, Gil Robles, Count Romanones, Martinez Barrio, Juan Negrin, Prieto, and all the others. I have tried to paint their portraits with fidelity to the truth.”—Claude G. Bowers
Book Synopsis British representations of the Spanish Civil War by : Brian Shelmerdine
Download or read book British representations of the Spanish Civil War written by Brian Shelmerdine and published by Manchester University Press. This book was released on 2024-07-30 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book looks at the reception of the Spanish Civil War in British popular culture, and how supporters of both sides in Britain used the rhetoric and imagery of the conflict to bolster support for their respective causes in the arena of British public opinion. Brian Shelmerdine finds that traditional notions of Spain as a country of bullfighting, bandits and flamenco were pervasive and were significant in shaping wider UK government policy towards Spain. He carefully assesses the different political perceptions of the 1930s Spanish scene, the role of the Catholic Church, the depiction of the two sides in terms of class, race and ethnicity, humanitarian appeals, and the plight of the Basques. The book is fluently written, and should make fascinating and entertaining reading for scholars of British society and culture in the twentieth century, as well as those investigating international impact of the Spanish Civil War.

Book Synopsis Fighting For Franco by : Judith Keene
Download or read book Fighting For Franco written by Judith Keene and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2007-02-10 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the enduring myths of the Franco state was that the Nationalist forces that won the Civil War consisted of patriotic Spaniards while the Republic was defended by a rag tag army of foreign 'reds.' During the Spanish civil war, however, many groups on the European right were galvanized by the Nationalist cause. European fascists, conservative Catholics and those uneasy with liberal democracy in general rallied to the figure of Franco, who appeared to be holding the line against secularism, modernism and Bolshevism. This book recounts the experiences of a number of foreign volunteers, including the brigades of White Russians, Romanians, Irish and the French volunteers in the Jeanne d'Arc battalion, all of whom saw their engagement in Spain as a means of promoting their own political causes at home. As well there were individual women and men, from the New World and the Old, who were moved by religion, politics or simply adventurism to join up with Franco. Fighting for Franco reconstructs their motivation and the mind set which took them to Spain. It thus casts a new light on Nationalist Spain and on the specific concerns of a wide variety of right-wing movements between the wars.
Book Synopsis With God on Our Side by : Ben Edwards
Download or read book With God on Our Side written by Ben Edwards and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2013-07-29 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book uses Christian reactions to the Spanish Civil War to analyse the role and importance of Christianity in interwar Britain. This conflict is used as a proxy through which to discuss the status of Christianity in Britain because the Nationalists claimed to be fighting a Holy War against communist-atheism. This representation meant that the conflict was of considerable interest to Christians in Britain. British Christians frequently used the war in Spain to discuss their broader concerns. Many leading Catholics and fascistic Protestants argued that the events in Spain were an exaggerated form of the communist threat to Britain; by contrast, many Protestants used the war to voice their wider criticisms of Catholicism. Catholics responded to these chastisements by reasserting that members of their faith were patriots who resisted communist internationalism and atheism. Christian responses to the war, therefore, increased pre-existing tension between Protestantism and Catholicism. Similarly, Catholicism’s already difficult relationship with Labour was adversely affected by these movements’ reactions to the conflict. Labour’s involvement with the Basque children operations showed that it wanted to maintain relatively harmonious relations with Catholicism, but these efforts were unsuccessful. Ultimately, this study uses British Christian reactions to the Spanish Civil War to indicate that Christianity was actually an important aspect of interwar British society.

Book Synopsis Manuel de Falla and Visions of Spanish Music by : Michael Christoforidis
Download or read book Manuel de Falla and Visions of Spanish Music written by Michael Christoforidis and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-11-23 with total page 503 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Michael Christoforidis is widely recognized as a leading expert on one of Spain's most important composers, Manuel de Falla. This volume brings together both new chapters and revised versions of previously published work, some of which is made available here in English for the first time. The introductory chapter provides a biographical outline of the composer and characterisations of both Falla and his music during his lifetime. The sections that follow explore different facets of Falla’s mature works and musical identity. Part II traces the evolution of his flamenco-inspired Spanish style through contacts with Claude Debussy, Maurice Ravel and Igor Stravinsky, while Part III explores the impact of post-World War I modernities on Falla’s musical nationalism. The final part reflects on aspects of Falla’s music and the politics of Spain in the 1930s and 1940s. Situating his discussion of these aspects of Falla's music within a broader context, including currents in literature and the visual arts, Christoforidis provides a distinctive and original contribution to the study of Falla as well as to the wider fields of musical modernism, exoticism, and music and politics.

Book Synopsis George Orwell: As I please, 1943-1946 by : George Orwell
Download or read book George Orwell: As I please, 1943-1946 written by George Orwell and published by David R. Godine Publisher. This book was released on 2000 with total page 462 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: George Orwell is a major figure in twentieth-century literature. The author of Down and Out in Paris and London, Nineteen Eighty-four, and Animal Farm, he published ten books and two collections of essays during his lifetime - but in terms of actual words, produced much more than seems possible for someone who died at the age of forty-six and was often struggling against poverty and ill health. His essays, letters, and journalism are among the most memorable, lucid, and intelligent ever written, the work of a master craftsman and a brilliant mind. Taken as a whole they form an essential collection, and read in toto and sequentially, they provide a remarkably literary self-portrait of an engaged, and consistently engaging, writer. Here, in four volumes, is the best selection of his nonfiction writing now available, a trove of letters, essays, reviews, and journalism that is breathtaking in its scope and eclectic passions.
Book Synopsis Artifice and Invention in the Spanish Golden Age by : Stephen Boyd
Download or read book Artifice and Invention in the Spanish Golden Age written by Stephen Boyd and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-05 with total page 263 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The corpus of literary works shaped by the Renaissance and the Baroque that appeared in Spain during the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries had a transforming effect on writing throughout Europe and left a rich legacy that scholars continue to explore. For four decades after the Spanish Civil War the study of this literature flourished in Great Britain and Ireland, where many of the leading scholars in the field were based. Though this particular 'Golden Age' was followed by a decline for many years, there have recently been signs of a significant revival. The present book seeks to showcase the latest research of established and younger colleagues from Great Britain and Ireland on the Spanish Golden Age. It falls into four sections, in each of which works by particular authors are examined in detail: prose (Miguel de Cervantes, Francisco de Quevedo, Baltasar Gracian), poetry (The Count of Salinas, Luis de Gongora, Pedro Soto de Rojas), drama (Cervantes, Calderon, Lope de Vega), and colonial writing (Bernardo Balbuena, Hernando Dominguez Camargo, Alonso de Ercilla). There are essays also on more general themes (the motif of poetry as manna; rehearsals on the Golden Age stage; proposals put to viceroys on governing Spanish Naples). The essays, taken together, offer a representative sample of current scholarship in England, Scotland, and Ireland.
