DELSARTEAN TRINITIES; OR, MAN AS A TRIUNE BEING. THEORETICAL. Know, then, thyself; presume not God to scan-. The proper study of mankind is man. XXIV. DELSARTEAN TRINITIES. Theoretical. HE following pages treat of the theoretical side of the Delsartean philosophy; and it is our purpose to deal with the philosophy, not with the philosopher, -- with the teachings, not the teacher. We will pause, however, long enough to say that during the life of Francois Delsarte one could point to him and say with truth, "There is the great master of expression of the world." There was not a thought that found its way into the mind of a human being, having with it a subsequent action, which, if seen by Delsarte, could not as quickly, as readily, and as accurately be divined by him as if it had been given vocal expression, or transferred to the printed page, or wrought upon canvas by the most skilful artist. To those of us who have been earnest students and faithful followers, he has left this rich legacy, though not perhaps to so great a degree; but so faithfully does the impression register itself in the expression, that, with the key furnished by this great master, we can, when sitting or walking with you, or talking to you, divine the thought that has not yet found its vocal expression, --- for it has been telling its story by other and stronger and more accurate agencies. We are now about to travel on an old, time-worn, well-beaten path, -- a path travelled perhaps by every individual who peruses these pages; but the beauties of that pathway lie hidden to the casual observer. Having travelled this pleasant and soul-enchanting route for many years, having retraced our footsteps many, many a time, we are more or less familiar with its objects of...

Download or read book Performing History written by Nancy November and published by Academic Studies PRess. This book was released on 2020-08-25 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The fifteen essays of Performing History glimpse the diverse ways music historians “do” history, and the diverse ways in which music histories matter. This book’s chapters are structured into six key areas: historically informed performance; ethnomusicological perspectives; particular musical works that “tell,” “enact,” or “perform” war histories; operatic works that works that “tell,” “enact,” or “perform” power or enlightenment; musical works that deploy the body and a broad range of senses to convey histories; and histories involving popular music and performance. Diverse lines of evidence and manifold methodologies are represented here, ranging from traditional historical archival research to interviewing, performing, and composing. The modes of analyzing music and its associated texts represented here are as various as the kinds of evidence explored, including, for example, reading historical accounts against other contextual backdrops, and reading “between the lines” to access other voices than those provided by mainstream interpretation or traditional musicology.

Download or read book Visual Gestural Communication written by Willy Conley and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-04-05 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Visual-Gestural Communication is a truly unique volume in non-language communication devoted to the study of universal gestures, facial expressions, body language, and pantomime. Readers develop the skill and confidence to interact -- sans shared language -- with individuals, such as someone who is deaf or hard of hearing, or who speaks a foreign language. The text and accompanying online resources feature a wealth of icebreakers, sequenced yet modular activities and assignments, as well as resources, student exercises, and teacher-guided tasks that explore aspects and amalgamations of nonverbal communication, theatre, and sign language. It is a tremendous resource for students of visual-gestural communication, sign language interpretation, American Sign Language (and other foreign sign languages), nonverbal communication, theatre, and performance studies, as well as community educators in deaf awareness and advocacy. In addition to the text's vital use in the theatrical arena, it is also applicable to teachers who wish to help their students maximize the use of their facial expressions, gestures, and body language as a prerequisite to learning ASL.
Download or read book Nancy Spero Encounters written by JoannaS. Walker and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-05 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An original and valuable intervention in the fast-growing field of feminist and new art histories, Nancy Spero, Encounters offers a sophisticated interpretation of the work of a highly original and under-represented woman artist. The study proposes a new model of comparatism within the field of visual studies, mirroring and complementing Spero's dialogic manner of working. Basing her analyses on extensive research and multiple face-to-face interviews with the artist, Joanna Walker examines how a selection of the artists and art forms Spero cited offer significant points of comparison with her work. Walker presents Spero's encounters with the art of Ana Mendieta; with the poetry of the American poet H.D.; with the dance of Isadora Duncan; and, turning the lens back on Spero as subject, with the portraits of the artist by Abe Frajndlich. Also included are transcripts of Walker's interviews with the artist, and a listing of the books contained in Spero's personal library which informed her practice. Not only does this book cast well-deserved light on an artist who spent most of her career on the margins of the mainstream - it reverses genealogies and revises the traditional remit of the art historical monograph through both its structure and content.

Download or read book Concert Song as Seen written by Sara K. Schneider and published by Pendragon Press. This book was released on 1994 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The substantive value of a performer's presence in co-creating a musical art work is examined in Schneider's insightful new book. Recital singing is placed within the history of solo performance since the baroque period (especially with reference to rhetorical style and eighteenth-century acting technique). A first-hand look at modern conservatory training highlights the pedagogical styles (and their effects on learning) of Antonia Lavane (Mannes College of Music), Cynthia Hoffman (Manhattan School of Music), and Paul Sperry (Juilliard School). The solutions that singers have found, or in the case of performers deconstructing the song tradition, have created to address the problem of a musically determined gesture, will surely benefit the professional singer, the teacher, and the student of voice.

Download or read book The Evolution of Aesthetic and Expressive Dance in Boston written by Jody Marie Weber and published by Cambria Press. This book was released on 2009 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Evolution of Aesthetic and Expressive Dance in Boston provides a regional history of the physical education pioneers who established the groundwork for women to participate in movement and expression. Their schools and their writing offer insights into the powerful cultural changes that were reconfiguring women's perceptions of their bodies in motion. The book examines the history from the first successful school of ballroom dance run by Lorenzo Papanti to the establishment of the Braggiotti School by Berthe and Francesca Braggiotti (two wealthy Bostonian socialites who used their power and money to support dance in Boston). The Delsartean ideas about beauty and the expressive capacity of the body freed upper-class women to explore movement beyond social dance and to enjoy movement as artistic self expression. Their interest and pleasure in early "parlor forms" engaged them as sponsors and advocates of expressive dance. Although revolutionaries such as Isadora Duncan and Ruth St. Denis also garnered support from Boston and New York's social sets, in Boston the relationship of the city's elite and its native dancers was both intimate and ongoing. The Braggiotti sisters did not use this support to embark on international tours; instead they founded a school that educated the children of their sponsors and offered performances for their own community. Although later artists, Miriam Winslow and Hans Weiner, did tour nationally and internationally, the intimate relationships they maintained with the upper echelon of Boston society required that they remain sensitive to the needs of their students and their community. Through the study of these schools, the reader is offered a unique perspective on the evolution of expressive dance as it unfolded in Boston and its environs. The Evolution of Aesthetic and Expressive Dance in Boston is an important book for those interested in dance history, women's studies, and regional histories.
