  • Symbol of Conquest, Alliance, and Hegemony
    SYMBOL OF CONQUEST, ALLIANCE, AND HEGEMONY: THE IMAGE OF THE CROSS IN COLONIAL MEXICO by ZACHARY WINGERD Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of The University of Texas at Arlington in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY THE UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS AT ARLINGTON August 2008 Copyright © by Zachary Wingerd 2008 All Rights Reserved ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I offer thanks to Dr. Dennis Reinhartz, Dr. Kenneth Philp, Dr. Richard Francaviglia, and Dr. Joseph Bastien who agreed to sit on my dissertation committee and guide my research and writing. Special thanks are given to Dr. Douglas Richmond who encouraged my topic from the very beginning and as the committee chair actively supported my endeavor. May 1, 2008 iii DEDICATED TO MY LOVING WIFE AND SONS Lindsey, Josh, and Jamie iv ABSTRACT SYMBOL OF CONQUEST, ALLIANCE, AND HEGEMONY: THE IMAGE OF THE CROSS IN COLONIAL MEXICO Zachary Wingerd, PhD. The University of Texas at Arlington, 2008 Supervising Professor: Douglas Richmond The universality of the cross image within the transatlantic confrontation meant not only a hegemony of culture, but of symbolism. The symbol of the cross existed in both European and American societies hundreds of years before Columbus. In both cultures, the cross was integral in religious ceremony, priestly decoration, and cosmic maps. As a symbol of life and death, of human and divine suffering, of religious and political acquiescence, no other image in transatlantic history has held such a perennial, powerful message as the cross. For colonial Mexico, which felt the brunt of Spanish initiative, the symbol of the cross penetrated the autochthonous culture out of which the independent nation and indigenous church were born.

For the next seventeen years, Gregori beautified the school’s interiors––painting scenes on the interior of the Golden Dome and the Columbus murals within the Main Building, as well as creating murals and the Stations of the Cross for the Basilica of the Sacred Heart. In 1875 the Bishops Gallery and the Museum of Indian Antiquities opened in the Main Building. The Bishops Gallery featured sixty portraits of bishops painted by Gregori. In 1899 Rev. Edward W. J.

However, many times other requirements overwhelm artistic potential. There are numerous good, simple examples in the history of architecture where solutions to a variety of often functional requirements have produced exceptional artistic expressions, which in turn have inspired contemporary architectural practice. Pre-industrial architecture not only responded to natural conditions in the environment; it employed all the senses as well in its design of living environments. Today, unfortunately, we rarely find that architects pay attention to sound, smell, water, natural cycles, or, almost unimaginable, to time.

  • The Expression of Sacred Space in Temple Mythology
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Unisa Institutional Repository EXPRESSONS OF SACRED SPACE: TEMPLE ARCHITECTURE IN THE ANCIENT NEAR EAST by Martin J Palmer submitted in accordance with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Literature and Philosophy in the subject Ancient Near Eastern Studies at the UNIVERSITY OF SOUTH AFRICA Promoter: Prof. P S Vermaak February 2012 ii ABSTRACT The objective of this thesis is to identify, isolate, and expound the concepts of sacred space and its ancillary doctrines and to show how they were expressed in ancient temple architecture and ritual. The fundamental concept of sacred space defined the nature of the holiness that pervaded the temple. The idea of sacred space included the ancient view of the temple as a mountain. Other subsets of the basic notion of sacred space include the role of the creation story in temple ritual, its status as an image of a heavenly temple and its location on the axis mundi, the temple as the site of the hieros gamos, the substantial role of the temple regarding kingship and coronation rites, the temple as a symbol of the Tree of Life, and the role played by water as a symbol of physical and spiritual blessings streaming forth from the temple. Temple ritual, architecture, and construction techniques expressed these concepts in various ways. These expressions, identified in the literary and archaeological records, were surprisingly consistent throughout the ancient Near East across large expanses of space and time. Under the general heading of Techniques of Construction and Decoration, this thesis examines the concept of the primordial mound and its application in temple architecture, the practice of foundation deposits, the purposes and functions of enclosure walls, principles of orientation, alignment, and measurement, and interior decorations.

Thesis Prepared for the Degree of MASTER OF ARTS UNIVERSITY OF NORTH TEXAS August 2018 APPROVED: Joseph Klein, Major Professor and Chair of the Division of Composition Studies Martin Back, Committee Member David Stout, Committee Member Jon Nelson, Committee Member Benjamin Brand, Director of Graduate Studies in the College of Music John W. Richmond: Dean of the College of Music Victor Prybutok, Dean of the Toulouse Graduate School diFalco, Elaine. “Cosmophonia”: Musical Expressions of Astronomy and Cosmology. Master of Arts (Music), August 2018, 113 pp., 22 figures, 3 musical scores, bibliography, 82 titles. Astronomy and music are both fundamental to cultural identity in the form of various musical styles and calendrical systems. However, since both are governed by incontrovertible laws of physics and therefore precede cultural interpretation, they are potentially useful for insight into the common ground of a shared humanity. This paper discusses three compositions inspired by different aspects of astronomy: Solstitium e Equinoctium, a site-specific composition for four voices and metal pipes involving an inclusive communal musical ritual and sonic meditation; Helios, a short symphonic work inspired by helioseismology; and Perspectives, a piece for soprano and percussion based on a logarithmic map of the universe.

Catal. jazz 03-4 8-03-2012 19:14 Pagina 3 La bellezza della musica La bellezza della musica è un fatto sostanzialmente indicibile. Sulla musica si sono riempiti vagoni di libri e si allungheranno chilometri di files. Eppure – lo sosteneva anche il grande Leonard Bernstein – chi mai riuscirà a spiegare compiutamente ed esaurientemente il singolaris- simo fenomeno della reazione dell’uomo al linguaggio dei suoni? Ci possiamo provare (ed è legittimo farlo), ma il mistero che ci pervade ogni volta, all’ascolto di Cavaradossi che canta “E luce- van le stelle”, resta impenetrabile. Come tutti i linguaggi dell’arte, la musica ha vissuto momenti 3 incomparabili, in cui le vette più alte della creatività umana erano intravedibili da tutti: i corali di Bach, le sinfonie di Mozart, le sonate di Beethoven, le arie di Verdi e Puccini. Chiunque poteva toccare il cielo con un dito. Poi, soprattutto nel secolo appena conclusosi, gli artisti, i poeti, i musicisti hanno ritenuto giusto incamminarsi su strade sempre più ardue e innalzare torri più alte: penso a personaggi pur geniali come Picasso, Joyce, Stravinskj e penso al jazz, una musica nata in America da una costola della nostra cultura europea ma per molti versi rimastaci spesso estranea. Tuttavia, ciò che del jazz ha senza dubbio e da sempre attirato l’at- tenzione persino dei più scettici è l’esser una musica capace di possedere sia le caratteristiche del linguaggio difficile e impegna- tivo sia la comunicatività diretta delle espressioni popolari.

  • Rodger Coleman Sun Ra Sundays
    SUN RA SUNDAYS by Rodger Coleman This is a compilation of blog entries about SUN RA authored by RODGER G. COLEMAN from 2008 to 2015 and posted at nuvoid.blogspot.com. Coleman's blog contains hundreds of posts on a myriad of music subjects; we've culled only the Ra content. We have added no commentary, preferring to let this writing speak for itself. The vast Sun Ra knowledge base covered in Coleman's posts remains vital and historically valid. Identifiable historic inaccuracies (generally based on best-available sources at the time) are neither corrected nor footnoted. These are the posts and responses as they were published online at the time—the verbatim historic record. All copyrights belong to Coleman and the authors of the comments and quoted sources. This chronicle was collected, formatted & edited by Irwin Chusid, with assistance from Kristen Pierce, in November 2018. It is sequenced chronologically. Some unintentional misspelling has been corrected; idiosyncratic spelling, abbreviations, and casual disregard of capitalization niceties (mostly in the comments) were left as written. Most dead links are omitted. Reader comments are highlighted in red (although salutations- only comments have been omitted). Graphic images and photos from the blog are not included. (For graphics, see SAM BYRD's complementary collection of Sun Ra Sundays posts; Byrd also arranged all entries in discographical order.) This content has been collected for preservation, research, and circulation. In some cases, recent findings have amplified, clarified, or superseded particular details or assertions. It would be interesting to crowd-source updates with new information that's come to light since these posts were published.
