D. 1452: Being Seven Ballads From the Thieves' Argot of the Xvth Century The seven Ballads in thejargon or the Thieves' Argot of that period, which are herewith set forth, appear to be advice and Warning - Sermons, they have been called - to his companions, the Brothers of La Coquille, and they are supposed to have been written about the year The theme of the Hangman's noose and of the Yawning prison seems to have beenever foremost in Villon's mind, and from these ideas he was never able to disasso/ ciate himself. Nor is this so strange, since the Archers of the Guard and the rack and gallows played a most if not the most imz portant part in the daily life of the xvth Century Parisian, and Villon himself was acquainted with them only too well. We are told that there were nineteen gibbets, in and around Paris, in the time of Louis XI and that the populace went en fete to all the public executions, chanting songs in ballad form and enjoying them/ selves to the uttermost. For our Poet these gibbets and gaunt Montfaulcon appear to have had a special fascination and likewise horror, he having escaped the hangman's clutches on two different occasions.

Download or read book The Symphonic Poem in Britain 1850 1950 written by Michael Allis and published by Boydell & Brewer. This book was released on 2020 with total page 382 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Symphonic Poem in Britain 1850-1950 aims to raise the status of the genre generally and in Britain specifically. The volume reaffirms British composers' confidence in dealing with literary texts and takes advantage of the contributors' interdisciplinary expertise by situating discussions of the tone poem in Britain in a variety of historical, analytical and cultural contexts. This book highlights some of the continental models that influenced British composers, and identifies a range of issues related to perceptions of the genre. Richard Strauss became an important figure in Britain during this time, not only in terms of the clear impact of his tone poems, but the debates over their value and even their ethics. A focus on French orchestral music in Britain represents a welcome addition to scholarly debate, and links to issues in several other chapters. The historical development of the genre, the impact of compositional models, issues highlighted in critical reception as well as programming strategies all contribute to a richer understanding of the symphonic poem in Britain. Works by British composers discussed in more detail include William Wallace's Villon (1909), Gustav Holst's Beni Mora(1909-10), Hubert Parry's From Death to Life (1914), John Ireland's Mai-Dun (1921), and Frank Bridge's orchestral 'poems' (1903-15).
Download or read book Songs Scribes and Society written by Jane Alden and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2010-09-28 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A new kind of songbook emerged in the later fifteenth century: personalized, portable, and lavishly decorated. Five closely related chansonniers, copied in the Loire Valley region of central France c. 1465-c. 1475, are the earliest surviving examples of this new genre. The Loire Valley Chansonniers preserve the music of such renowned composers as Guillaume Du Fay, Johannes Ockeghem, and Antoine Busnoys. But their importance as musical sources has overshadowed the significance of these manuscripts as artifacts in their own right. This book places the physical objects at center, investigating the means by which they were produced and the broader culture in which they circulated. Jane Alden performs a codicological autopsy upon the manuscripts and reveals the hitherto unrecognized role of scribes in shaping the transmission and reception of the chanson repertory. Alden also challenges the long-held belief that the Loire Valley Chansonniers were intended for royal or noble patrons. Instead, she argues that a rising class of bureaucrats--notaries, secretaries, and other court officials--commissioned these exquisite objects. Active as writers and participants in poetry competitions, these individuals may even have written some of the chansons' texts. The unique integration of image, text, and music found in chansonniers extends their appeal to a broad readership. But for the nineteenth-century scholars who rediscovered these manuscripts, the larger literary and visual resonances were not of primary interest. Alden documents the tangle of motivations--national identity, populist politics, and the rise of the musical masterwork--that informed the earliest writings on these books. Only now is their multifaceted structure the inspiration for a new generation of readers.
