Cecilia, is a violinist who, during anguished, sleepless nights, writes letters to the mother she never knew, haunted by her and hating her by turns. She eats little and cannot sleep.

Book French Feminists on Religion

Download or read book French Feminists on Religion written by Morny Joy and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 2002 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: French Feminists on Religion: A Reader offers the first representative selection of important writings by French feminist thinkers on the topic of religion, including the most influential and provocative texts on the subject from Luce Irigaray, Julia Kristeva, Hlne Cixous, Monique Wittig and Catherine Clment. Each thinker is introduced by a bibliographical preface, while individual essays are preceded by an editorial commentary explaining the context and significance of each piece for the study of religion. The collected texts cover a broad range of religious practices and discourses focusing primarily on Jewish and Christian concerns, but including elements of ancient Goddess traditions, Witchcraft, Hinduism and Buddhism. Critically examined themes include: * Jewish and Christian notions of sin, defilement, purity and redemption; * the relationship between subjectivity and divinity, as conceived in the feminine; * the feminist re-imaging of the Virgin Mary, and of Catholic theologies of love; * the repression of the maternal in Judeo-Christian culture. Brought together for the first time in French Feminist on Religion: A Reader, these essays demonstrate the central importance of French feminism for the study of religion, and at the same time make evident the significance of religious themes, figures and concepts to the world of French feminists.

Book Stabat Mater   Monaco Di Baviera

Download or read book Stabat Mater Monaco Di Baviera written by Tommaso Traetta and published by Idea Press. This book was released on 2015-04-06 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tommaso Traetta (Bitonto 1727 - Venice 1779) The Munich version of the Stabat Mater by Tommaso Traetta (1767) was found in Munich (Germany) in 1994 and performed the following year in the first modern day's performance in the seventeenth century's Chiesa del Carmine, at Bitonto's Maria Cristina Institute. Compared to the Naples version of the Stabat Mater, which was composed ten years earlier, and that has been defined by Damerini as "a valuable page of sacred music of the eighteenth century," this version exudes a radical religiosity that shakes the soul and becomes a reason for meditation and asceticism in line with the Lauda by Jacopone da Todi. Music and lyrics reach a suffered and humane intensity in the more mature Traetta, in a perfect parallel between the approach to Golgotha and the transition from earthly life to eternal life of the blessed admitted to contemplating the face of God. ----------------------------------------- Lo Stabat Mater di Monaco (1767) di Tommaso Traetta e stato rinvenuto a Monaco di Baviera nel 1994 ed eseguito l'anno successivo in prima esecuzione in tempi moderni nella seicentesca Chiesa del Carmine, presso l'Istituto Maria Cristina di Bitonto. Rispetto allo Stabat Mater di Napoli di dieci anni prima - definito dal Damerini "una pregevole pagina di musica sacra del Settecento" - emana una religiosita radicale che scuote l'animo e diventa motivo di meditazione e di ascesi in linea con la Lauda di Jacopone da Todi. Musica e parola raggiungono una intensita sofferta ed umana nel Traetta maturo, in un ideale parallelismo tra l'avvicinarsi al Golgota ed il passaggio dalla vita terrena a quella eterna dei beati ammessi alla contemplazione del volto di Dio."

  • Publisher : Oxford University Press
  • Release : 2023-10-17
  • ISBN : 0197638341

Download or read book Mario Lavista written by Ana R. Alonso-Minutti and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2023-10-17 with total page 385 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Composer, pianist, editor, writer, and pedagogue Mario Lavista (1943-2021) was a central figure of the cultural and artistic scene in Mexico and one of the leading Ibero-American composers of his generation. His music is often described as evocative and poetic, noted for his meticulous attention to timbre and motivic permutation, and his creative trajectory was characterized by its intersections with the other arts, particularly poetry and painting. Lavista was a relational composer; he did not write music as a private enterprise but for and alongside people with whom he established close relations. Understanding analysis as an affective practice, author Ana R. Alonso-Minutti explores the intertextual connections between the multiple texts--musical or otherwise--that are present in Lavista's music. Alonso-Minutti argues that, through adopting an interdisciplinary and transhistorical approach to music composition, Lavista forged a cosmopolitan imaginary that challenged stereotypes of what Mexican music should sound like. This imaginary becomes a strategy of resistance against imperialist agendas placed upon postcolonial peripheries. Departing from traditional biographical and chronological frameworks that exalt masters and masterworks, the author offers a nuanced, personal narrative informed by conversations with composers, performers, artists, choreographers, poets, writers, and filmmakers. Through an innovative mosaic of methodologies, from archival work, to musical and intertextual analysis, oral history, and (auto)ethnography, this book is the first in-depth study of Lavista's compositional career and offers a contextual panorama of the contemporary music scene in Mexico

Book A Wayfaring Stranger

    Book Details:
  • Author : Veronika Kusz
  • Publisher : Univ of California Press
  • Release : 2020-01-21
  • ISBN : 0520972260
  • Pages : 259 pages

Download or read book A Wayfaring Stranger written by Veronika Kusz and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2020-01-21 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On March 10, 1948, world-renowned composer and pianist Ernst von Dohnányi (1877−1960) embarked for the United States, leaving Europe for good. Only a few years earlier, the seventy-year-old Hungarian had been a triumphant, internationally admired musician and leading figure in Hungarian musical life. Fleeing a political smear campaign that sought to implicate him in intellectual collaboration with fascism, he reached American shores without a job or a home. A Wayfaring Stranger presents the final period in Dohnányi’s exceptional career and uses a range of previously unavailable material to reexamine commonly held beliefs about the musician and his unique oeuvre. Offering insights into his life as a teacher, pianist, and composer, the book also considers the difficulties of émigré life, the political charges made against him, and the compositional and aesthetic dilemmas faced by a conservative artist. To this rich biographical account, Veronika Kusz adds an in-depth examination of Dohnányi’s late works—in most cases the first analyses to appear in musicological literature. This corrective history provides never-before-seen photographs of the musician’s life in the United States and skillfully illustrates Dohnányi’s impact on European and American music and the culture of the time.
