  • John Harbison's Songs for Baritone: a Performer's Guide
    John Harbison‘s Songs for Baritone: A Performer‘s Guide A document submitted to The Graduate School of the University of Cincinnati in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF MUSICAL ARTS in the Performance Studies Division of the College-Conservatory of Music 2011 by Peter C. Keates B.M.A., University of Oklahoma, 2004 M.M., University of Cincinnati, CCM, 2006 Abstract This document is a performance guide for Words from Paterson and Flashes and Illuminations, John Harbison‘s song cycles for baritone. It confronts the issues of text interpretation and musical style one must address in order to give the most informed performance of these songs. It provides a synthesis of information about the poems and readings of the poetry Harbison set to music, offers insight into Harbison‘s interpretations of the text, and demonstrates how Harbison‘s atonal style and unique compositional techniques provide a successful musical setting for the chosen texts. The guide also discusses performance issues based on personal experience as well as the experience of the composer and other performers. The poetic style of William Carlos Williams, Michael Fried, Czeslaw Milosz, Elizabeth Bishop, and Eugenio Montale are examined. A transcription of an interview with John Harbison is also included.

  • Identity and Narrative in Doris Lessing's and J.M. Coetzee's Life Writings
    Identity and narrative in Doris Lessing's and J.M. Coetzee's Life Writings ENG-3992 Shkurte Krasniqi Master’s Thesis in English Literature Faculty of Humanities, Social Sciences and Education University of Tromsø Spring 2013 Acknowledgements I would like to thank my supervisor Professor Gerd Karin Bjørhovde for her constructive criticism and for encouraging me to work on this thesis. She is an inspiration to me. I would also like to thank my family for supporting me from afar: you are always on my mind. Last but not least, I am grateful to have my husband Jørn by my side. Abstract The main focus of this thesis is the manner in which Doris Lessing and J.M Coetzee construct their identities in their life writings. While Lessing has written a “classical” autobiography using the first person and past tense, Coetzee has opted for a more fictional version using the third person and the present tense. These different approaches offer us a unique opportunity to look into the manner in which fiction and facts can be combined and used to create works of art which linger permanently between the two. It is also interesting to see how these two writers have dealt with the complications of being raised in Southern Africa and how that influences their social and personal identities. In the Introduction I present the writers and their oeuvres briefly. In Chapter 1, I explain the terms connected with life writing, identity and narrative. In the second chapter I begin by looking into the manner in which their respective life writings begin and what repercussions does using the first and the third person have? In the third chapter I analyse their relational identities, i.e.

  • The Freedom of Exile in Naipaul and Doris Lessinp
    The Freedom of Exile in Naipaul and Doris Lessinp ANDREW GURR A XXT THE END of the first "Free Women" section of The Golden Notebook Anna Wulf, the fictional author of the notebooks which form the basis for the whole novel, sits looking down on her material "as if she were a general on the top of a mountain, watching her armies deploy in the valley below."1 Anna as army commander is a sad irony, isolated as she is (a few lines earlier we were told "it was only alone, in the big room, that she was herself"), and fragmented to the very end as her fictions remain. This image of the self-deluding writer of fiction is worth unpack• ing. Its contents are the necessities of the writer of reflexive fic• tions and the writer as a free agent. The image's assumption of command, the writer as controller of fictions, is an irony which links the writing of The Golden Notebook precisely to the reflexive fictions of the last twenty years. Fiction has become the imposition of a subjective vision and the writer cannot be separated from the solipsistic fiction, ordering fantastic armies to do fantastic things which never exist outside the writer's head. The general also stands alone, above the fiction, in an isolation which is a form of exile from the battle he seeks to control. He has issued his orders. He expects to control events according to the pattern he dictates. He has the illusion that he is free to give his own shape to the events he rules over.
