The Death of Eurydice Orpheus' Descent Into Hades
Myth #4 Orpheus and Eurydice Name _____________________________________ READ CLOSELY AND SHOW EVIDENCE OF THINKING BY ANNOTATING. Annotate all readings by highlighting the main idea in yellow; the best evidence supporting in blue, and any interesting phrases in green. As it is only fitting, Orpheus, “the father of songs” and the supreme musician in Greek mythology, was the son of one of the Muses, generally said to be Calliope, by either Apollo or the Thracian king Oeagrus. Be that as it may, we know for sure that Orpheus got a golden lyre as a gift from Apollo when just a child, and that it was the god who taught him how to play it in such a beautiful manner. Moreover, his mother showed him how to add verses to the music, and his eight aunts how to polish them to perfection, in every style known to man. So, when Orpheus was a young man, as Shakespeare writes, his “golden touch could soften steel and stones, make tigers tame, and huge leviathans forsake unsounded deeps to dance on sands.” Loved by many, this young man loved only the beautiful Eurydice; and she loved him back. This is the story of their tragic love. The Death of Eurydice Soon after the marriage of Orpheus and Eurydice, Eurydice died of a snake bite. Different authors tell different stories as to what led to the fatal encounter. According to the most repeated story, Eurydice fell into a serpent nest after trying to escape from a certain Aristaeus, a shepherd who began to chase her through the forest as soon as he laid his eyes upon her otherworldly beauty.

Extracts of Orfeu Da Conceição (Translated by David Treece)
Extracts of Orfeu da Conceição (translated by David Treece) Extracts of Orfeu da Conceição (translated by David Treece) The poems and songs here translated are from the play Orfeu da Conceição, by Vinicius de Moraes and Antonio Carlos Jobim. This selection was part of the libretto for “Playing with Orpheus”, performed by the King’s Brazil Ensemble in October 2016, as part of the Festival of Arts and Humanities at King’s College London. Orpheus Eurydice… Eurydice… Eurydice … The name that bids one to speak Of love: name of my love, which the wind Learned so as to pluck the flower’s petals Name of the nameless star… Eurydice… Coryphaeus The perils of this life are too many For those who feel passion, above all When a moon suddenly appears And hangs there in the sky, as if forgotten. And if the moonlight in its wild frenzy Is joined by some melody Then you must watch out For a woman must be there about. A woman must be there about, made Of music, moonlight and feeling And life won’t let her be, so perfect is she. A woman who is like the very Moon: So lovely that she leaves a trail of suffering So filled with innocence that she stands naked there.

Extracts of Orfeu da Conceição (translated by David Treece) Learned so as to pluck the flower’s petals Name of the nameless star… Eurydice… A Woman’s name A woman’s name Just a name, no more… And a self-respecting man Breaks down and weeps And acts against his will And is deprived of peace.

MARCEL CAMUS Quel Est Le Point Commun Entre Jacques Becker
MARCEL CAMUS Quel est le point commun entre Jacques Becker, Vinicius de Moraes, Jorge Amado, Bourvil et Barack Obama ? Marcel Camus, un réalisateur ardennais passionné de voyage et empreint d’humanité et de fraternité. Comme souvent, tout a commencé par une rencontre. Lors de la vente de livres organisée par les Amis de la bibliothèque, je discute avec Gérard Tardif à qui j’apprends que je suis le fils de Marcel Camus. Il me propose alors de participer à Signets et d’écrire un article sur mon père. Cette proposition me rappelle un hasard, une anecdote étonnante. Lors d’un trajet pour me rendre à Paris, je prends un exemplaire de la Gazette du Val d’Oise abandonné sur une banquette du Transilien. Je le feuillette négligemment. Je tombe, c’est vraiment le mot, sur un article concernant la sortie en DVD du film Le Mur de l’Atlantique. Il est écrit : « En juin 1970, pour les besoins du Mur de l’Atlantique de Marcel Camus, Bourvil se rendra successivement à Saint-Leu-La-Forêt, dans la vallée de Chauvry (…)». Lorsque nous avons décidé de quitter Paris pour la banlieue avec ma femme, nous n’avions jamais entendu parler de Saint-Leu-La-Forêt. C’est le hasard des balades qui nous a permis de découvrir cette charmante ville. Apprendre que mon père était venu tourner ici, m’a évidemment touché. Marcel Camus et Bourvil Premières mises en scène en captivité Marcel Camus est né en 1912 à Chappes, près de Charleville Mézières, le pays de Rimbaud. Il n’a jamais été nostalgique du climat rude des Ardennes.
