Book excerpt: Tagein, tagaus nichts tun, hübsch aussehen und sich gut benehmen - das kann auf die Dauer ganz schön langweilig sein. So schön ist es gar nicht, Prinzessin zu sein. Isabella, jüngste von drei Schwestern, war es jedenfalls leid, immer nur in feinen Kleidern und mit einer Krone auf dem Kopf herumzulaufen. Wie sollte man damit auf Bäume klettern! "Prinzessinnen klettern nicht auf Bäume!" wetterte ihr Vater, der König. Aber da kam er bei seiner Jüngsten gerade recht. "Ja, ja, ja", rief Isabella. "Prinzessinnen tun überhaupt nichts, was Spaß macht. Nicht mal in der Nase bohren!" Da stampfte der König mit dem Fuß auf und befahl, dass man seine Tochter zum Kartoffelschälen und Zwiebelschneiden in die Küche bringen sollte. Isabella gefiel es in der Küche, und als sie nach drei Tagen immer noch nicht geläutert war, ließ der König sie in den Schweinestall bringen. Im Schweinestall gefiel es Isabella noch besser. Sie blieb sogar nachts. Da begriff der König, dass er verloren hatte. "Komm zurück ins Schloss, Töchterchen", seufzte er. "Ich vermisse dich." Isabella tat ihm den Gefallen. Ihm zuliebe setzte sie sogar ab und zu die Krone auf. Aber zwischendurch schlief sie immer mal wieder im Stall.
Download or read book Isabella of Castile written by Shirin Yim Bridges and published by Goosebottom Books. This book was released on 2012-06-30 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a twist on the classic fairy tale, a princess in fifteenth century Spain refused to wait to be rescued by a prince but instead chose one for herself. Even then, she would not marry him until they’d reached an agreement that was revolutionary for her time—their marriage would be an equal partnership captured in the motto: To stand as high, as high to stand, Isabella and Ferdinand. This book tells the real and remarkable story of the princess, Isabella of Castile. The partnership that she made with her prince was a happy and successful one. Without her, both Spain and America would not exist as we know them. Richly illustrated and narrated with humor, The Thinking Girl’s Treasury of Real Princesses brings to life the stories of real and remarkable princesses who managed to do what few thought possible.

Download or read book Giacomo Meyerbeer written by Robert Ignatius Letellier and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2008-10-01 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The fame of Giacomo Meyerbeer is associated principally with the operatic stage, but he wrote for the voice extensively in other genres as well, including non-operatic stage works, occasional public works, sacred music, choral music and songs, This volume collates and presents, in the original and in English translation, as many of these texts as have been published, or whose manuscripts have proved accessible to the editors. There are six parts devoted to the various genres . Part 1 looks at the non-operatic stage works, the dramatic cantata he wrote at the beginning of his Italian period Gli Amori di Teolinda (1817), the masque written for Prussian court festivities Das Hoffest zu Ferrara (1842), and songs included in plays. Part 2 is devoted to the occasional works Meyerbeer was asked to write throughout his life, twelve cantatas born out of commissions to celebrate dynastic events and to praise the deeds of famous men. Their festive purposes mark anniversaries of illustrious figures (like Guttenberg, Frederick the Great, Schiller, Rauch), commemorate events in national life like the Wars of Liberation recalled in the choral soliloquy, the Bayerische Schützen Marsch (1831, to words by King Ludwig I of Bavaria), or the visit of Queen Victoria to the Rhine in 1845, or the twenty-fifth wedding anniversary of the King and Queen of Prussia in 1854. Linked to these are the part songs for male chorus given in Part 4, a ubiquitous German choral tradition; most of them were written for the Friends of the Berlin Singakademie, and used the themes so typical of communal merrymaking and affirmation—unity, friendship, patriotism, homeland, hunting: Part 3 surveys the texts for sacred music, from the early oratorio Gott und die Natur (1811) to the canticle Ineffable splendeur de la gloire eternelle drawn from Thomas à Kempis (1862-3). The young composer’s skills and serious endeavours were demonstrated by the song cycle using seven religious odes by Klopstock (Sieben Geistliche Gesänge, 1812, revised 1841)—an early involvement with religious texts that continued intermittently throughout his life, and manifested itself preeminently in his eight-part setting of Psalm 91 (1853) and his beautiful choral version of the Our Father (1857). Meyerbeer also wrote songs consistently, from his six Italian ariettas of 1810 to a canon for two voices completed in December 1862. These Lieder, mélodies and canzonette reflected the circumstances of his career, the various cultural milieux he moved in. They also helped to keep his name in the public eye in the wake of his great operatic successes, gaining popular currency by publication in musical journals. Part 5 provides the words of 54 of the 83 songs that are listed in his diaries. These texts are given a visual dimension by some 36 illustrations, mostly the beautifully engraved titles pages of many of the published works.
