The brooks flow with a sweet murmur. Thunder and lightning come and cover the sky with a black mantle. When the storm has passed the birds return to their sweet song. Largo: The goatherd with his faithful dog sleeps on the flowery meadows amidst the murmur of the leaves. Allegro: At the bright coming of spring, nymphs and shepherds dance to the festive sound of shepherds' pipes. Summer Allegro non molto: Men and flocks languish under the hot sun; the cuckoo's voice is heard and the dove sings. A gentle breeze is blowing, but Boreas suddenly appears. Adagio: The shepherd laments because he fears a tempest. The fear of lightning and thunder, as well as the flies, destroy his rest. Presto: Alas! His fears come true, for there is thunder and lightning from Heaven and the hail breaks the tops of the grain and the great trees. Autumn Allegro: Harvest is celebrated with dance and song. Many, heated by wine, finish their pleasure with sleep. Adagio: The temperate air is delightful and everyone leaves dance and song, for the season invites us all to the pleasure of sweetest sleep. Allegro: The huntsmen go forth at dawn with horns and guns. The beasts flee terrified but finally die. Winter Allegro: In the midst of the fierce wind people run stamping their feet and their teeth chatter from the cold. Adagio: One passes quiet, contented days by the fireside while the outside is drenched by rain. Allegro: One walks on ice cautiously for fear of falling. One tumbles, rises and runs until the ice breaks and melts. This is winter with all the winds at war, but still it brings joy.

    Catherine the Great and the Development of a Modern Russian Sovereignty, 1762-1796 By Thomas Lucius Lowish A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Victoria Frede-Montemayor, Chair Professor Jonathan Sheehan Professor Kinch Hoekstra Spring 2021 Abstract Catherine the Great and the Development of a Modern Russian Sovereignty, 1762-1796 by Thomas Lucius Lowish Doctor of Philosophy in History University of California, Berkeley Professor Victoria Frede-Montemayor, Chair Historians of Russian monarchy have avoided the concept of sovereignty, choosing instead to describe how monarchs sought power, authority, or legitimacy. This dissertation, which centers on Catherine the Great, the empress of Russia between 1762 and 1796, takes on the concept of sovereignty as the exercise of supreme and untrammeled power, considered legitimate, and shows why sovereignty was itself the major desideratum. Sovereignty expressed parity with Western rulers, but it would allow Russian monarchs to bring order to their vast domain and to meaningfully govern the lives of their multitudinous subjects. This dissertation argues that Catherine the Great was a crucial figure in this process. Perceiving the confusion and disorder in how her predecessors exercised power, she recognized that sovereignty required both strong and consistent procedures as well as substantial collaboration with the broadest possible number of stakeholders. This was a modern conception of sovereignty, designed to regulate the swelling mechanisms of the Russian state. Catherine established her system through careful management of both her own activities and the institutions and servitors that she saw as integral to the system.

  • Johann Peter Vogel: Pfitzners Verhältnis Zu Juden Und Judentum
    Mitteilungen der Hans Pfitzner-Gesellschaft 70 (2009) 8-29 [revidierte Fassung 2011] www.pfitzner-gesellschaft.de Johann Peter Vogel PFITZNERS VERHÄLTNIS ZU JUDEN UND JUDENTUM 1. Vorbemerkungen. „Ich habe Dr. Pfitzner zur Zeit der Aufführung der ‚Rose vom Liebes- garten‘ in Wien im Hause Gustav Mahlers kennen gelernt. Es war mir immer bekannt, dass er Deutschnationaler im Sinne Richard Wagners, also mit einer kleinen antisemitischen Truebung war. Ich habe ihn in all diesen Jahren oefters gesprochen. Trotz aller uns trennenden Unter- schiede, die kuenstlerischen inbegriffen, habe ich nie das Gefuehl von Agressivitaet gehabt. Kein Wunder, dass nach dem Abwandern so vieler Musikalischer Kraefte Pfitzner unter den wenigen, die verblieben, der erstklassige war und als solcher die Anerkennung fand, die ihm frueher zu Unrecht nicht immer zum Teil geworden war. Wenn das nazistische System fuer ihn von Vorteil war, so bin ich ueberzeugt, dass er sich nie- mals dafuer gebeugt, niemals eine Konzession gemacht haette, Grausam- keiten aber sicherlich verurteilte“.1 Das schrieb Arnold Schönberg am 10.9.1947 in Los Angeles als Eidesstattliche Erklärung für das Spruch- kammerverfahren gegen Hans Pfitzner, das denn auch mit der Feststel- lung endete, Pfitzner sei „vom Gesetz nicht betroffen“. Die Erklärung Schönbergs wird gern als Gefälligkeitsschreiben gewertet, denn sie passt nicht zu dem Persönlichkeitsbild, das eine moralisierende Generation von Pfitzner als einem ‚aggressiven‘, ja ‚mörderischen Anti- semiten‘ entwirft. Warum aber Schönberg für Pfitzner, der 1926 die von Schönberg vertretene atonale Musik heftig angegriffen hat, ein so dick aufgetragenes Gefälligkeitsschreiben formuliert haben soll, wird nicht er- klärt. Der Stich gegen Pfitzner liegt in der Bemerkung, dass der unter Überarbeitete und erweiterte Fassung eines am 2.

Reedy Woodring “Revenge should have no bounds”: Poison and Revenge in Seventeenth Century English Drama Abstract The revenge- and poison- filled tragedies of seventeenth century England astound audiences with their language of contagion and disease. Understanding poison as the force behind epidemic disease, this dissertation considers the often-overlooked connections between stage revenge and poison. Poison was not only a material substance bought from a foreign market. It was the subject of countless revisions and debates in early modern England. Above all, writers argued about poison’s role in the most harrowing epidemic disease of the period, the pestilence, as both the cause and possible cure of this seemingly contagious disease.

    XSMIRjB TANGLEWOOD / STEINWAY To teach your child to look at life through music is to make her world all the richer. But let Steinway be her mentor. The golden rewards of owning a Steinway far exceed any price placed upon it. Young fingers learn quicker from the incredible sensitivity of its Accelerated Action. A keener sense of tone is developed from knowing its glorious singing voice. Mastery comes easier. And so enduring is the magnificent beauty of the Steinway, so perfect its craftsmanship that it will serve for many years. A Steinway costs more initially, but in terms of its true value and abiding advantages it is the most economical of all pianos! In Massachusetts and New Hampshire, new Steinways are sold only by THE STEINWAY is used exclusively by Brailowsky, Casadesus, Hess, Horowitz, Jonas, Kapell, Kreisler, Lehmann, Novaes, Ormandy Rubenstein, Serkin, Templeton, Toscanini, and virtually every other •^ M'StQineruSons famous artist.
