  • Pages : 305 pages

Download or read book The Cantigas de Santa Maria written by Henry T. Drummond and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2024-04-23 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Alfonso X (1221-84) ruled over the Crown of Castile from 1252 until his death. Known as "the Wise," he oversaw the production of a wealth of literature in his scriptorium. One of the most impressive of these literary outputs is the collection of songs known as the Cantigas de Santa Maria, which by most counts comprises 429 songs preserved in four manuscripts. The miracle songs (or cantigas de miragre) form the focus of this book. While the Cantigas have been the subject of much scholarly attention, only a handful of studies have looked at the repertory through an interdisciplinary lens. Fewer still have probed how the Cantigas use the power of song as a communicative medium, one that functions as a social tool within the erudite environment of the Alfonsine court. This book offers a new perspective to the song collection, probing how the Cantigas use their music and text, together with rhetorical devices, to communicate with their desired audience. Author Henry T. Drummond builds upon previous methodologies, adopting a novel and holistic assessment of the songs' melodies, poetic features, and narrative logic to assess a wide selection of songs. He presents a nuanced understanding of a song form that effectively conveys its narratives to its listeners via a diverse combination of tools, embracing medieval rhetoric, rhyme-based play, and song's inherent ludic potential. Such devices, Drummond argues, allow for the Cantigas to loom large as propaganda pieces, designed to dignify Alfonso X through an elaborately devised courtly ritual.

Book Cobras E Son

Download or read book Cobras E Son written by Stephen Parkinson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2000 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 13th-Century (Cantiagas de Santa Maria) were composed and set to music at the court of King Alfonso X of Castille. They were songs in praise of the Virgin Mary, composed in the Galican-Portugese language. While there has been long-standing debate over the musical notations, only recently scholors have become aware of textual problems demanding a close study of all manyscript components, paticuarly the relation between the poetry (Cobras) and music (Son). This volume consists mainly of papers given at an international colloquium held in Oxford in 1994. The meeting discussed textual, musical, palaeographical and iconographical problems of the Cantiagas de Santa Maria, questioning many views about the relationships between the manuscripts, the evolution of the collections, the source of the music and the place of the collections in relation to artistic and scriptorial developments in Europe. Contributors include: Stephen Parkinson, Manuael Pedro Ferreira, David Wulston, Mary O'Neill, Ana Dominguez Rodriguez, Susana Zapke, Valeria Bertolucci Pizzorusso, Jesus Montoya Martinez, Martha Schaffer.
