  • Pages : 617 pages

Book excerpt: Opera in the first half of the eighteenth century saw the rise of the memorable composer and the memorable work. Recent research on this period has been especially fruitful, showing renewed interest in how opera operated within its local cultures, what audience members felt was at stake in opera performances, who the people-composers and performers-were who made opera possible. The essays for this volume capture the principal themes of current research: the "idea" of opera, opera criticism, the people of opera, and the emerging technologies of opera.

Book Song and sonnets  Canzoni e sonetti

Download or read book Song and sonnets Canzoni e sonetti written by John Donne and published by Luigi Pellegrini Editore. This book was released on 2019-03-27 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: John Donne, uno dei massimi poeti inglesi, visse tra la seconda metà del XVI secolo e la prima metà del XVII secolo: epoca di grandi fermenti e di intensi scambi. È un poeta che esprime, meglio di tanti altri, le tensioni della sua età e l’esigenza di allungare lo sguardo sulla vita, la cultura e la letteratura del Continente europeo, in particolare, dell’Italia, della Francia e della Spagna, paesi visitati dal poeta. John Donne, che non aveva reciso del tutto le radici medioevali, avvertì, inevitabilmente, gli effetti dell’impatto col pensiero scientifico e critico della nuova cultura rinascimentale, profondamente segnata dal naturalismo telesiano, dal De Revolutionibus Orbium coelestium (1543), in cui Niccolò Copernico propone il sistema eliocentrico, in opposizione a quello geocentrico di Tolomeo e, nel campo della ricerca filosofica, dall’empirismo, teorizzato da Francis Bacon nel suo Novum Organum del 1621, che afferma l’importanza, ai fini della conoscenza, della percezione sensoriale, vagliate dalla critica dell’intelletto. Punto terminale di tale processo è il razionalismo di Descartes (XVII secolo), che afferma la funzione del pensiero come attività. zIl XVII secolo, in cui forti sono ancora la coscienza e la cultura medievali, è un periodo nevralgico per la storia della civiltà inglese: il passaggio all’età moderna non è più procrastinabile. Nel campo della poesia è, appunto, John Donne che rompe, definitivamente, gli argini, accostando la Fede a certe verità obiettive, ad esempio, all’amore. Tale scelta fa emergere il conflitto tra passione e ragione, certamente, motivo di turbamento della coscienza dell’individuo; ma, d’altro canto, come si fa a pensare alla vita, prescindendo dall’amore e dalla passione, che sono verità connaturali all’essere? E John Donne, esaltando e valorizzando quest’ultima connotazione, risolve il dissidio a suo modo e, perciò, intreccia i temi dello spirito e dei sensi, e lo fa con assoluta naturalezza e senza reticenze. Lo spirito del Medioevo non si è, però, ancora spento, e il poeta si rende conto che certe questioni possono toccare la suscettibilità dell’individuo e, perciò, egli affronta tali argomenti con sincerità e chiarezza, ma da poeta autentico ed esperto, ricorre, con grande perizia, ad una pedagogia molto efficace, che non disdegna l’uso di strumenti di notevole effetto e suggestione, consolidati, ormai, nella poesia, come l’emblematismo, la similitudine, l’allegoria, la metafora. E l’esito è, in molti casi, straordinario, tale da garantire a John Donne un posto di assoluto preminenza nella letteratura non solo inglese.

Book Singing Games in Early Modern Italy

Download or read book Singing Games in Early Modern Italy written by Paul Schleuse and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 2015-06-08 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Italy during the late cinquecento, printed music could be found not only in the homes of the wealthy or the music professional, but also in lay homes, courts, and academies. No longer confined to the salons of the elite, music took on the role of social play and recreation. Paul Schleuse examines these new musical forms through a study of the music books of Italian priest, poet, and composer, Orazio Vecchi. Composed for minor patrons and the wider music-buying public, Vecchi's madrigals took as their subjects game-playing, drinking, hunting, battles, and the life of the street. Schleuse looks at how music and game-playing allowed singers and performers to play the roles of exemplary pastoral characters and also comic, foreign, and "rustic" others in ways that defined and ultimately reinforced social norms of the times. His findings reposition Orazio Vecchi as one of the most innovative composers of the late 16th century.
