The main invasion followed a year later; Tariq Ibn Ziyad, a Berber by birth, brought over from the African side of the narrows a comparatively small army which sufficed to overthrow Roderick the Visigoth and to supplant the Cross by the Crescent; he gave his name to that famous Rock of Gibraltar (Jabal Tariq, the Mountain of Tariq), which has been disputed by so many conquerors down the ages, and over which the British flag has fluttered since the early years of the eighteenth century.

  • Vestiges of Midsummer Ritual in Motets for John the Baptist
    Early Music History (2011) Volume 30. Cambridge University Press doi:10.1017/S0261127911000027 M A A Email: [email protected] FIRE, FOLIAGE AND FURY: VESTIGES OF MIDSUMMER RITUAL IN MOTETS FOR JOHN THE BAPTIST The thirteenth-century motet repertory has been understood on a wide spectrum, with recent scholarship amplifying the relationship between the liturgical tenors and the commentary in the upper voices. This study examines a family of motets based on the tenors IOHANNE and MULIERUM from the feast of the Nativity of John the Baptist (24 June). Several texts within this motet family make references to well-known traditions associated with the pagan festival of Midsummer, the celebration of the summer solstice. Allusions to popular solstitial practices including the lighting of bonfires and the public criticism of authority, in addition to the cultural awareness of the sun’s power on this day, conspicuously surface in these motets, particularly when viewed through the lens of the tenor. The study suggests the further obfuscation of sacred and secular poles in the motet through attentiveness to images of popular, pre-Christian rituals that survive in these polyphonic works. In the northern French village of Jumièges from the late Middle Ages to the middle of the nineteenth century, a peculiar fraternal ritual took place. Each year on the evening of the twenty-third of June, the Brotherhood of the Green Wolf chose its new chief. Arrayed in a brimless green hat in the shape of a cone, the elected master led the men to a priest and choir; Portions of this study were read at the Medieval and Renaissance Conference at the Institut für Musikwissenschaft, University of Vienna, 8–11 August 2007 and at the University of Chicago’s Medieval Workshop on 19 May 2006.

    A HUMDRUM AHA!: JOHN CLARE’S MUNDANE SUBLIME by Dana Odwazny Pell A Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of The Dorothy F. Schmidt College of Arts and Letters in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts Florida Atlantic University Boca Raton, Florida August 2012 i A HUMDRUM AHA!: JOHN CLARE’Sii MUNDANE SUBLIM ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I wish to share my sincere appreciation and love to my friends, family, and husband for their support throughout this project. Their encouragement kept me writing even when my focus waned. I would also like to express my continued gratitude for my academic springboard, Betsy Cohen. Miles might separate us, but we have come a long way together. In addition, I am indebted to the Florida Atlantic English department faculty, especially Dr. Golden, Dr. Berlatsky, Dr. Adams, and Dr. McGuirk. Each of you has inspired and humbled me. iii ABSTRACT Author: Dana Odwazny Pell Title: A Humdrum Aha!: John Clare’s Mundane Sublime Institution: Florida Atlantic University Thesis Advisor: Dr. Don Adams Degree: Master of Arts Year: 2012 Following the work of Sara Houghton-Walker and Edward Strickland, this thesis theorizes the “mundane sublime” as encountered in romanticist John Clare’s poetry. Instead of being oriented upward, as with Longinus’s elevatory sublime, Clare’s mundane sublime brings the subject downward to earth. While the sublime of the Burkean tradition begins with terror, I claim that the mundane sublime emerges out of love for that which is commonplace. Still revelatory, it may be further characterized by an engagement with ecosystems, eternity, divinity, and nature as a whole.

  • The Dream of Gerontius by Cardinal Newman
    Cardinal Newman’s Dream of Gerontius as a Revelation of the Destiny of the Human Person Fr Thomas Norris The Creed of Christians includes the statement, "I look for the resurrection of the dead and the life of the world to come." John Henry Newman not only had a vivid sense of that world, a world above and beyond this one, he continually reminded himself and others of the Invisible World or, as he liked to call it, the "Unseen World." The Unseen World held a fascination for him. As a teenager, at the age of fifteen, he had had a profound experience of his Creator and himself. In reading the text of the Dream of Gerontius, it is vital to remember that his elegant language is entirely at the service of belief, the belief in the soul's passage through death to judgement and entry into purgatory on course to eternal communion with the God of Jesus Christ and with all those in the communion of his crucified and risen Body. In this conference, I propose doing the following. First, I will give a brief first report on a recent conference held in London to explore how the idea of Purgatory could work in contemporary psychotherapy. Much common ground was found, particularly in relation to the themes of pride, hope and love. Then we shall briefly indicate the context in which the Dream was written. In the third place, we shall expound the central theme of the Dream, the person dying and finding himself on the way to judgement, supported by prayer on earth and the angels at the approach to the throne of God on high.

She was raised with harsh realities and hard choices inherent in an inequitable culture that allowed discrimination, segregation, disenfranchisement, and continued acts of oppression and brutality. Her life story, her musicality, her songwriting, her autobiography Lady Sings the Blues, and the feeling that she put into almost everything she touched created a lasting legacy.
