  • Dissecting Orpheus in Baz Luhrmann's Moulin Rouge!
    Dissecting Orpheus in Baz Luhrmann’s Moulin Rouge! At the opening—and again at the closing—of Moulin Rouge!, Henri Toulouse- Lautrec sings “Nature Boy.” Dressed as the Magic Sitar in the fictional theater production of Spectacular! Spectacular!, he chants “The greatest thing you'll ever learn / Is just to love and to love in return.” These verses frame and emphasize the overarching theme of passionate love through the medium of music. That some form of personification of Love and Music lies at the heart of the Orpheus myth will be no surprise to classically trained reader. But what might be surprising is that in the publicity surrounding Moulin Rouge!, Baz Luhrmann insisted that this film was his expression of the Orpheus and Eurydice myth. Strong scholarly work on the classical allusions in Moulin Rouge! has already been begun, especially in detailing the counterpoints in allegory between both character and plot. My contribution to this subject, however, takes the analysis to a more abstract level. I argue that Luhrmann wanted not only to combine plot and character in order to create a new story, but that he used the idea of love emerging from music as an aesthetic theory in itself, emblematic for the very creative process of his original, cinematic production. This aesthetic philosophy and method creates a creative framework for the theme of rebirth in this ancient myth. I believe that Luhrmann was contemplating the Dionysiac ritual of sparagmos, central to the theory of drama and musical drama, as a working aesthetic for this film. This presentation will focus on musical composition of the film (rather than the static visual hybrids or the cinematic editing techniques), and in particular on duets sung between the Orpheus character Christian and the Eurydice character Satine.

Mills Ouachita Baptist University Follow this and additional works at: https://scholarlycommons.obu.edu/honors_theses Part of the French and Francophone Literature Commons, Other Theatre and Performance Studies Commons, and the Translation Studies Commons Recommended Citation Mills, Joy A., "Allusions and Historical Models in Gaston Leroux's The Phantom of the Opera" (2004). Honors Theses. 83. https://scholarlycommons.obu.edu/honors_theses/83 This Thesis is brought to you for free and open access by the Carl Goodson Honors Program at Scholarly Commons @ Ouachita. It has been accepted for inclusion in Honors Theses by an authorized administrator of Scholarly Commons @ Ouachita. For more information, please contact [email protected]. Gaston Leroux's 1911 novel, The Phantom of the Opera, has a considerable number of allusions, some of which are accessible to modern American audiences, like references to Romeo and Juilet. Many of the references, however, are very specific to the operatic world or to other somewhat obscure fields. Knowledge of these allusions would greatly enhance the experience of readers of the novel, and would also contribute to their ability to interpret it. Thus my thesis aims to be helpful to those who read The Phantom of the Opera by providing a set of notes, as it were, to explain the allusions, with an emphasis on the extended allusion of the Palais Garnier and the historical models for the heroine, Christine Daae. Notes on Translations At the time of this writing, three English translations are commercially available of The Phantom of the Opera.

    19th Century Architecture • In the nineteenth century, each nation came to value its past as evidence of the validity of its ambitions and claims to greatness. Art and architecture of the remote past came to be regarded as products of cultural and national genius. • Neoclassical, Gothic, Baroque, Renaissance revivals, as well as eclectic style which combines different elements from various historical styles. • Additionally, new building materials - iron, steel and glass, as well as reinforced concrete lead to new architectural forms. Neo-Baroque/Beaux-Arts style A grandiose architectural style as taught at the Ecole des Beaux Arts in Paris, widely applied to large public buildings. Beaux-Arts buildings are typically massive; have a symmetrical plan, and rich decoration. The Opera House was built by Garnier for Napoleon the III.

  • Palais Garnier Opera Bastille
    THE CONTEXT OF ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN Strengthening a Sense of Place ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND: Within every city is a sense of place. An experience that is unique to it and it alone. It is an experience that reflects the ideals, A sense of place is most commonly defined as “a multidimensional construction representing beliefs, emotions and behavioral history, and aspirations of a community. Which is manifested in its architecture. When a building seeks to fit within this context commitments concerning a particular geographic setting.” It is the essence of the culture and values of the people in any it builds upon what is already there to fortify the character and overall meaning of the buildings around it. It does this by using particular location. The two main categories that contribute to a sense of place are physical and symbolic factors. Essentially the similar architectural motifs, proportions, and materials. All these elements come together to promote the singular voice of the answers to the following questions: what are the physical attributes of a place that make it unique? And what is the perceived people that built it. However, when a building doesn’t seek to fit into its context it disrupts the conversation of the buildings meaning or symbolism of that place? The purpose of this study is to demonstrate how the architectural design of a building can around it. If more and more egotistical buildings are built, the place becomes at risk of losing its voice and true self. In this study strengthen or weaken the sense of place established by its context.

  • Trophée Des Arts 2009 Robert Wilson
    Trophée des Arts 2009 Robert Wilson The New York Times described Robert Wilson as “a towering figure in the world of experimental theater.” Susan Sontag has said of Wilson’s work “it has the signature of a major artistic creation. I can’t think of any body of work as large or as influential.” Wilson’s works integrate a wide variety of artistic media, combining movement, dance, lighting, furniture design, sculpture, music, and text into a unified whole. His images are aesthetically striking and emotionally charged, and his productions have earned the acclaim of audiences and critics worldwide— especially in France, where Wilson has been named “Commandeur des arts et des lettres” by the Minister of Culture. Born in Waco, Texas, Wilson was educated The Life and Times of Joseph Stalin, a at the University of Texas and Brooklyn’s twelve-hour silent opera performed in 1973 Pratt Institute, where he took an interest in New York, Europe, and South America; in architecture and design. He studied and A Letter for Queen Victoria in Europe painting with George McNeil in Paris and and New York in 1974–1975. In 1976 Wilson later worked with the architect Paolo Solari joined with composer Philip Glass in in Arizona. Moving to New York City in the writing the landmark work Einstein on the mid-1960s, Wilson found himself drawn to Beach, which was presented at the Festival the work of pioneering choreographers d’Avignon and at New York’s Metropolitan George Balanchine, Merce Cunningham, Opera House, and has since been revived and Martha Graham, among others.
