  • Today's Operas
    Today’s Operas BERG: WOZZECK Alban Berg: Wozzeck (1926). Opera in Three Acts. Text by the composer, based on Woyzeck by Georg Büchner (1813–37). Büchner was a brilliant but short-lived writer from the start of the 19th Century. His play, a searing attack on militarism and social injustice, was left unfinished at his death, existing only as a large number of short scenes. It was first performed only in 1913 in Munich and in Vienna the following year, a performance that Berg attended. Working on the opera during his own service in the World War, Berg must have seen uncanny relevance across the centuries. The opera premiered in Berlin in 1925 under Erich Kleiber, and was an immediate success until banned by the Nazis in 1933. [The following synopsis is adapted from Wikipedia. Sections to be played in class are underlined.] Despite its atonality, the three acts and the five scenes in each act are distinguished by reference to conventional musical structures. These are listed after each section below. Act One, Scene 1 (Suite). Wozzeck is shaving the Captain who lectures him on the qualities of a "decent man" and taunts him for living an immoral life. Wozzeck slavishly replies, "Jawohl, Herr Hauptmann" — 1 — repeatedly to the Captain's abuse. However, when the Captain scorns Wozzeck for having a child out of wedlock, Wozzeck protests that it is difficult to be virtuous when he is poor. The flustered Captain, unable to comprehend Wozzeck, finally concedes that he is a decent man, and dismisses him. Act One, Scene 2 (Rhapsody and Hunting Song).

She is no Ionger as regal and as much admired as in the 18th century, nor is she as popular and vital as she was in mid-I9th century for bold young rivals have entered the arena: film, radio, musicals and television. But reviewing the new operas written in this century, from MOSES UND ARON by Schoenberg and WOZZECK by Berg, to works by Luigi Dallapiccola, lldebrando Pizzetti, Werner Egk, Marcel Delannoy and others, one is taken by surprise by the abundance, versatility and ingenuity in musical, theatrical and ideological terms, of modern opera. What the rnusical avant -garde considered a defunct creature, a 'dinosaur' of sorts (this strange animal is over 370 years old), became, to their dismay, a phoenix redux. At tirnes it metarnorphosed into political drarna (Weiii-Brecht); at others it returned to the oratory form (Stravinsky, Honegger, Debussy), and on still other occasions it turns upon itself with laudable irony, as in Mauricio Kagel's STAATSTHEATER. Anylhing can happen in an opera, all is allowed and, if one rnay venture to express some optirnisrn - which is not easy in our province - it still has some surprises in store for us.

As a licensed professional, you are responsible for reviewing the scope of practice, including activities that are defined in law as beyond the boundaries of practice in accordance with and in compliance with your professional standards.” With great appreciation 1 Demonstration 2 What are hypnotic phenomena? • Any response to a hypnotic scenario that does not seem to be the product of conscious intention (e.g., automaticity), or one that occurs in opposition to conscious intention (e.g., immobilization), or one that somehow alters the reality orientation on which conscious intentions are based (e.g., age progression). However… • All hypnotic phenomena occur in ordinary, daily life but without being incorporated into goal-oriented activity (e.g., suddenly not remembering a name, or driving w/o thought). Hypnotic procedure merely activates ordinary behavior within a novel perceptual context. • These phenomena are also necessary for any symptom complex: I didn’t intent to do it, I can’t stop it, or how can this be real. 3 By Dan Short 1 The Ericksonian Approach to Hypnotic December 2019 Phenomena Why use Hypnotic Phenomena? • To ratify the legitimacy of the hypnotic procedure, thus increasing positive expectancy effects associated with therapy outcomes. • To produce a type of virtual reality in which any action or experience can be tested without any risk of real-world consequences. • To transform liabilities into assets that can be utilized during lifelong problem solving.

    Running head: TRAUMA THERAPY IN TREATMENT OF PSYCHOSIS COMPLEX TRAUMA THERAPY IN THE TREATMENT OF PSYCHOSIS: TOWARD AN INTEGRATIVE APPROACH A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF APPLIED AND PROFESSIONAL PSYCHOLOGY OF RUTGERS, THE STATE UNIVERSITY OF NEW JERSEY BY LILLIE I. VANDEKAR IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PSYCHOLOGY NEW BRUNSWICK, NEW JERSEY OCTOBER 2019 APPROVED: ___________________________ Monica J. Indart, Psy.D. ___________________________ Louis A. Sass, Ph.D. DEAN: __________________________ Francine Conway, Ph.D. TRAUMA THERAPY IN TREATMENT OF PSYCHOSIS ii Abstract An increasing number of studies have demonstrated that there is a high incidence of childhood trauma and posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in individuals with schizophrenia, yet established treatments for psychosis do not address trauma. Recently, there has been an increasing emphasis on incorporating trauma treatment into care for schizophrenia. Despite heightened awareness of the need, there is little information available detailing an effective treatment strategy specifically tailored to this population. To address this need, a phase-oriented individual psychotherapy model is proposed that integrates Courtois and Ford’s (2013) relationship based model, widely recognized as the gold-standard treatment for the treatment of complex trauma, with interpersonal psychodynamic treatment for schizophrenia. The theoretical rationale for the choice of models and their integration are provided along with the historical development leading to the creation of each model. The proposed integrated model is designed for an outpatient population of individuals with psychosis and complex PTSD and is broken down into three general phases. Broadly, Phase I addresses safety, stabilization, and engagement, Phase II focuses on psychosis specific and trauma specific processing, and Phase III involves the consolidation of treatment gains and preparation for treatment termination.

    Finding Music’s Words: Moses und Aron and Viennese Jewish Modernism Maurice Cohn Candidate for Senior Honors in History, Oberlin College Thesis Advisor: Annemarie Sammartino Submitted Spring 2017 !2 Table of Contents Acknowledgments 3 Introduction 4 Chapter One 14 Chapter Two 34 Chapter Three 44 Conclusion 58 Bibliography 62 !3 Acknowledgments I have tremendous gratitude and gratefulness for all of the people who helped make this thesis a reality. There are far too many individuals for a complete list here, but I would like to mention a few. Firstly, to my advisor Ari Sammartino, who also chaired the honors seminar this year. Her intellectual guidance has been transformational for me, and I am incredibly thankful to have had her mentorship. Secondly, to the honors seminar students for 2016—2017. Their feedback and camaraderie was a wonderful counterweight to a thesis process that is often solitary. Thirdly, to Oberlin College and Conservatory. I have benefited enormously from my ability to be a double-degree student here, and am continually amazed by the support and dedication of both faculties to make this program work. And finally to my parents, Steve Cohn and Nancy Eberhardt. They were my first teachers, and remain my intellectual role models. !4 Introduction In 1946, Arnold Schoenberg composed a trio for violin, viola, and cello. Schoenberg earned his reputation as the quintessential musical modernist through complex, often gargantuan pieces with expansive and closely followed musical structures. By contrast, the musical building blocks of the trio are small and the writing is fragmented. The composer Martin Boykan wrote that the trio “is marked by interpolations, interruptions, even non-sequiturs, so that at times Schoenberg seems to be poised at the edge of incoherence.”1 Scattered throughout the piece are musical allusions to the Viennese waltz.
