Une vision de la femmePar Marie-paule Veyret"Fosca" est un roman posthume de Igino Ugo Tarchetti publi en 1869. Ce dernier appartient au courant littraire de la Scapigliatura (que l'on peut traduire par La Bohme, en rfrence au roman de Murger). D'ailleurs des musiciens comme Arrigo Boto, Catalini, Ponchielli et mme Puccini se situaient dans l'orbite de ce mouvement, fort influenc par Baudelaire et les frres Goncourt. Bien que "Fosca" raconte la double histoire d'amour d'un jeune militaire, Giorgio, d'abord avec une femme belle et douce, Clara, marie et bientt dcde, ensuite avec Fosca, parente du colonel qui le loge, c'est bien entendu celle-ci, comme le titre le souligne, qui est le personnage principal de l'oeuvre. Et quel personnage ! Laide faire peur, c'est Fosca qui tombe amoureuse de Giorgio et qui va mettre tout en oeuvre pour sduire le beau militaire (qui est aussi le narrateur). Fosca, c'est "la maladie personnifie, l'hystrie faite femme, un miracle vivant du systme nerveux". Ce qui est passionnant, c'est l'image de la femme que reprsente Fosca, qui vient beaucoup de Baudelaire et qui envahit la l'art de la fin du XIX sicle: on la retrouve chez Villiers de l'Isle Adam, chez Gustave Moreau, chez Beardsley.... Une forme de folie matrise (mais si peu), une sexualit redoutable, une attirance dangereuse. Et la laideur. Comment peut-on aimer un tre laid ? Voil ce dont parle magnifiquement "Fosca". C'est un sujet bien rarement trait...

ABSTRACT In this article, we revisit the question of the Mary Shelley’s fantastic tale “The mortal immortal” (1833), translated into Italian by the scapigliato writer Ugo Tarchetti, who assumed the work as his in both editions: the 1865 one, whose title was “Il mortale immortale (dall’inglese)” and the 1868 one, named “L’elixir dell’immortalità (imitazione dall’inglese)” in the Italian magazines Rivista Minima and Emporio Pittoresco. We aim to relect on why Tarchetti had such attitude and why Lawrence Venuti retranslated the text that was originally in English into English.

The analysis begins with dramatic concerns, where musico-dramatic intensity analysis graphs show the relationship between music and drama, and how one may affect the interpretation of events in the other. These graphs also show hierarchical recursion in both music and drama. The focus of the analysis then switches to how Sondheim uses traditional accompaniment schemata, but also stretches the schemata into patterns that are distinctly of his voice; particularly in the use of the waltz in four, developing accompaniment, and emerging meter. Sondheim shows his harmonic voice in how he juxtaposes treble and bass lines, creating diagonal dissonances.

  • March 31, 2005, 8:00 P.M
    LIVE FROM LINCOLN CENTER March 31, 2005, 8:00 p.m. on PBS Stephen Sondheim's Passion Stephen Sondheim, a protégé of the great lyricist, Oscar Hammerstein II, first burst upon the national scene in 1957 as the lyricist for Leonard Bernstein's West Side Story. But beginning with A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum, for which he created both the lyrics and the music (and which won a Tony Award in 1962), Sondheim has enriched the Broadway theater with its most stimulating and provocative musicals of the past 35 years. Sondheim's Passion will be our next Live From Lincoln Center presentation on the evening of Thursday, March 31 originating from the Rose Theater, the newest performing space at Lincoln Center. The star-studded concert version, directed by Lonny Price, will feature Patti LuPone, Audra McDonald and Michael Cerveris, with a 56-piece onstage orchestra conducted by Paul Gemignani. (By the way, Sondheim will have celebrated his 75th birthday just 9 days before our Passion telecast.) Sondheim created his first musical as a school production when he was 15. While studying music at Williams College he wrote the book, lyrics and music for several college shows. With a magna cum laude degree from Williams, he then went to Princeton where he continued his musical studies with Milton Babbitt. Though known primarily as a composer of severe serial music, Babbitt also has an encyclopedic knowledge of the music for films and the Broadway stage. The influence of Hammerstein and the work with Babbitt undoubtedly solidified Sondheim's expertise in musical theater.

  • The Subversion of Feminine Beauty in La Scapigliatura Serafina Paladino
    Over her Dead Body: The Subversion of Feminine Beauty in La Scapigliatura Serafina Paladino French & Italian Department Honors Thesis Defense University Colorado Boulder March 21st, 2019 Thesis Advisor Dr. Cosetta Seno, Italian Committee Members Dr. Suzanne Magnanini, Italian Dr. Tyler Lansford, Classics Abstract Within the canon of Italian literature, there is but a small pool of research on the archetypical avant-garde movement of La Scapigliatura, especially in how this circle of unique circle of artists especially their authors and poets, depicted female characters within their works. In fact, there is a dominating view that the portrayal of women presented by the Scapigliati in their works is incredibly misogynistic in nature and was inspired by the “fear of women” that was commonly felt by male artists in the mid 1800’s. However, this undergraduate thesis attempts to uncover the true nature of the women within the Scapigliatura. For many, their tragic ends and grotesque appearances in life came to represent the rebellious nature of the Scapigliati within Post-Risorgimento Italian society, thus reclaiming the abject as their ideal woman and standard of beauty in bold contrast to the literary model of the Risorgimento and Alessandro Manzoni before them. This leads to a conclusion that the Scapigliati, especially Iginio Ugo Tarchetti, used their fiction to break down the gender roles imposed harshly by the reality of society, in a subversion and gendered reconstruction of Rousseau’s state of nature. It is through the Scapigliatura that female characters can be more than a modest beauty of the Manzonian historical novel narrative. They are allowed to be real women who are ugly and decaying in both beauty and moral inclinations as a mirror of the reality around the Scapigliati during a time of cultural and political uncertainty.

  • A Reading of Iginio Ugo Tarchetti's Fosca Giorgio
    CONTRIBUTI THE SUBLIME WOMAN: A READING OF IGINIO UGO TARCHETTI’S FOSCA GIORGIO MELLONI State University of New York at New Paltz New Paltz, N. Y. Abstract: This article on the short novel Passion (original title, Fosca ) by Iginio Ugo Tarchetti offers textual evidence, through the individuation of the sublime woman as central character, or myth, of the story, for the inclusion of Tarchetti in the aesthetic canon of the Post-Romantic Sublime (see Bloom 1982; De Man 1971; Foster 1997; Freeman 1997; Hertz 1985; Lyotard 1994). The essay investigates the differences between the Romantic notion of the Sublime and that of Tarchetti (a member of the Scapigliatura , “ The Disheveled Ones ”, a post-romantic Italian literary movement), which anticipates the poetical themes and aesthetic forms of later authors such as D’Annunzio, Tozzi, and Anile. Indeed, in many Post-Romantic writers, such as the well studied French poet Baudelaire (see Auerbach 1959), the paradoxical tranquility guaranteed by the Romantic Sublime to the individual – at least in its manifestation as an infinite destructive danger, however remote – seems to be converted into a sensation of annihilation or devastation in which the act of perception of the object reaches a peak. In the Post- Romantic Sublime the contemplation of the aesthetic object is not resolved in the survival of the subject, an act permitted by the Romantic sublime. Instead, it concludes in the frustrating defeat or death of the individual before the impenetrable veil which filters reality. Key-words: Female Body, Sublime, Picturesque, Grotesque, Romantic, Scapigliatura, Stylistic Hermeneutics. ny reader who explores that controversial manifesto of criticism and poetics set forth in the “Idee minime sul romanzo” ( Tutte le opere, AVol.

    The Double in Late Nineteenth-Century Italian Literature: Readings in Fogazzaro and His Contemporaries Samuel Fleck Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2017 © 2017 Samuel Fleck All rights reserved ABSTRACT The Double in Late Nineteenth-Century Italian Literature: Readings in Fogazzaro and His Contemporaries Samuel Fleck This dissertation is organized around main axes: the literary and critical concept of the Double and the analysis of Antonio Fogazzaro’s 1881 novel, Malombra, in which the Double plays a complex thematic role. In the first chapter, I address the concept of the Double as a critical category, assessing its meaning across three different levels of reality: in terms of the cultural specificity of the representation (the nineteenth century and Romantic literature), in terms of the theoretical approach (whether it is construed as a transcendental figure, as in Freudian theory, or a transgressive figure, as in Jungian theory, etc.) and in terms of its placement relative to the other themes in the text. In the second chapter, I take up the analysis of three Italian texts from the second half of the nineteenth century which privilege the theme of the Double and invest it with idiosyncratic meaning: Uno spirito in un lampone by Iginio Ugo Tarchetti (1867), Due anime in un corpo by Emilio de Marchi (1877) and Le storie del castello di Trezza by Giovanni Verga (1875). My reading of these texts draws on diverse psychoanalytic perspectives, namely those of Jung, Lacan and Abraham and Torok.
