Book Synopsis The Marriage between Perfume and the Lyric Stage by : Mary May Robertson
Download or read book The Marriage between Perfume and the Lyric Stage written by Mary May Robertson and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2023-09-22 with total page 866 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “But what is this scent of balmy air? What this ray of light in my tomb? I seem to see an angel, amid a scent of roses” sings Florestan in Fidelio, Beethoven’s only opera. The role of scents, smells, fragrances, and odours in opera has long been neglected, just as how much opera and its stars have influenced the world of perfumery from the nineteenth century to the present day. In the first book-length study on the topic, Professor Mary May Robertson explores the relationship between opera, perfumes, and their respective protagonists in order to map out the previously undiscussed connection between the two. Through compelling close readings of librettos and rigorous research through thousands of bottles of perfume, the reader will come to appreciate and recognise the influences and exchanges between operas and perfumes and their ultimate marriage in the previously unrecognised genre of Operatic Perfumes, which is to say, perfumes named after operas, composers, and their divas.

Book Synopsis Absolutism and the Scientific Revolution, 1600-1720 by : Christopher Baker
Download or read book Absolutism and the Scientific Revolution, 1600-1720 written by Christopher Baker and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2002-09-30 with total page 487 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book—the sixth volume in The Great Cultural Eras of the Western World series—provides information on more than 400 individuals who created and played a role in the era's intellectual and cultural activity. The book's focus is on cultural figures—those whose inventions and discoveries contributed to the scientific revolution, those whose line of reasoning contributed to secularism, groundbreaking artists like Rembrandt, lesser known painters, and contributors to art and music. As the momentum of the Renaissance peaked in 1600, the Western World was poised to move from the Early Modern to the Modern Era. The Thirty Years War ended in 1648 and religion was no longer a cause for military conflict. Europe grew more secularized. Organized scientific research led to groundbreaking discoveries, such as the earth's magnetic field, Kepler's first two laws of motion, and the slide rule. In the arts, Baroque painting, music, and literature evolved. A new Europe was emerging. This book is a useful basic reference for students and laymen, with entries specifically designed for ready reference.

Book Synopsis The Epic Imaginary by : Charlton Payne
Download or read book The Epic Imaginary written by Charlton Payne and published by Walter de Gruyter. This book was released on 2012-07-04 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study analyzes how the imagination of the epic genre as legitimately legitimating community also unleashes an ambivalence between telling coherent ‐ and hence legitimating ‐ stories of political community and narrating open-ended stories of contingency that might de-legitimate political power. Manifest in eighteenth-century poetics above all in the disjunction between programmatic definitions of the epic and actual experiments with the genre, this ambivalence can also arise within a single epic over the course of its narrative. The present study thus traces how particular eighteenth-century epics explore an originary incompleteness of political power and its narrative legitimations. The first chapter sketches an overview of how eighteenth-century writers construct an imaginary epic genre that is assigned the task of performing the cultural work of legitimating political communities by narrating their allegedly unifying origins and borders. The subsequent chapters, however, explore how the practice of epic storytelling in works by Klopstock, Goethe, Wieland, and, in an epilogue, Brentano enact the disruptive potential of poetic language and narrative to question the legitimations of imaginary political origins and unities.
Book Synopsis Late Enlightenment by : Balázs Trencsényi
Download or read book Late Enlightenment written by Balázs Trencsényi and published by Central European University Press. This book was released on 2006-06-15 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume represents the first in a four-volume series, a daring project by CEU Press which presents the most important texts that triggered and shaped the processes of nation-building in the many countries of Central and Southeast Europe. The series brings together scholars from Austria, Albania, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, the Czech Republic, Greece, Hungary, the Republic of Macedonia, Poland, Romania, Serbia and Montenegro, Slovakia, Slovenia and Turkey. The editors have created a new interpretative synthesis that challenges the self-centered and "isolationist" historical narratives and educational canons prevalent in the region, in the spirit of of "coming to terms with the past." The main aim of the venture is to confront 'mainstream' and seemingly successful national discourses with each other, thus creating a space for analyzing those narratives of identity which became institutionalized as "national canons." The series will broaden the field of possible comparisons of the respective national cultures.

Download or read book The Black Galley written by Wilhelm Raabe and published by Good Press. This book was released on 2021-05-19 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This story is packed with romance and adventure, with a heroic fight for freedom and liberation against an army of ruthless dictators to a young couple that is reunited against all odds. It offers entertainment and the heart-warming message of how a fight for national independence against foreign power can be triumphant in the end. Even though this seems to be the message on the superficial level, there is a much deeper and darker hidden intention in this novel. Wilhelm Raabe (pseudonym Jakob Corvinus) was a German writer best known for realistic novels of middle-class life. He was one of the greatest realistic authors of the 19th century. With this early story about two inseparable friends, Jan Norris and Myga van Bergen, Raabe proved that he knows how to amuse his readers with a colorful action and love story. Raabe also includes also gothic elements like the Black Gallery into the tale.
