Conclusion 84 Selected bibliography and works cited 90 A Cycle of C-changes: a working model for the literary epiphany Schouten 2 1. Introduction Change is a keyword in much of the world’s literature, as human beings are hardly ever static and unchanging. Although there are instances in which hardly any change of character, or change of heart, or change of scene occurs in the course of a narrative – Beckett’s Waiting for Godot comes to mind – more often the protagonist’s progress is marked by significant changes. Hence, one of the most commonly discussed aspects when dealing with a work of literature is that of character development. Another key mechanism is that of rising and falling action. This is conventionally associated with drama, but equally applies to prose. Introduced in 1894 by the German critic and dramatist Gustav Freytag (Prince 36), the framework for plot analysis which became known as Freytag’s Pyramid consists of an upright triangular shape depicting on the left-hand side of the triangle the notion of rising action or the increase of tension, the tip of the pyramid representing the climax or culmination of the action, and the right-hand side standing for falling action or the decrease of tension.

  • Songbreak Program
    presents INTRODUCTION ­ SET 1 Lost is my Quiet, z. 502 (1691) Henry Purcell /unknown Henry Purcell (c.1659-95), often regarded as the dean of English composers, composed this duet, Lost is my Quiet, in 1691 during the height of the middle Baroque period in England. Like the later Baroque composers, Bach and Händel, he was incredibly prolific during his brief 35 years on earth, with a stunning output of masques, oratories, semi-operas, anthems, hymns, cantatas, organ music, incidental music for plays, royal funeral ceremonies and hundreds of songs. His church organist positions, held simultaneously at both the Royal Chapel and Westminster Abbey, made him the most important musician of his era. Purcell is honored, together with Bach and Händel, with a feast day on the liturgical calendar of the Episcopal Church. Lamento (1868) Henri DuParc /Théophile Gautier Frenchman Henri Duparc, who lived from 1848 till 1933, composed this solemn and moving piece in 1868. Plagued by nervousness and anxiety, at age 37 his mental state deteriorated and he completely stopped composing, and eventually destroyed most of his early output. What we have left is a superb body of only seventeen songs giving music to the words of more than a dozen different French poets, of which "Lamento" is one of the finest. Pietá, Signore (1833) François-Joseph Fétis /Anonymous Fétis was a Belgian composer and music critic who lived from 1784-1871. His musical talents manifested at the age of seven and, at nine, he was official church organist at Saint Waltrude. He was a prolific composer from the simple chanson to grand opera.

  • December 23, 2018 Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ, in Today's
    ST. RICHARD CATHOLIC CHURCH December 23, 2018 FROM THE DESK OF FR. ADAM. Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ, In today’s Gospel we hear Saint Luke’s account of the encounter between Mary and Elizabeth, both of whom are pregnant with their respective sons. We hear Elizabeth’s words of praise for the Blessed Virgin, which eventually become—along with the words of the angel, Gabrielle—the first part of our prayer the Hail Mary. Saint Luke is known for presenting a Marian perspective on the life of Christ. Only two gospels give us an account of the birth of our Lord, that of Saint Luke and that of Saint Matthew. Saint Matthew’s version sees the events through the eyes of Joseph, while Saint Luke’s version sees the birth of our Lord more through the viewpoint of Mary. Saint Luke’s account is the one most often portrayed in Christmas plays. In the liturgy, we hear Saint Luke’s version of the nativity proclaimed at Midnight Mass. If we are not able to come to that Mass, we might miss Saint Luke’s narrative altogether. In that case, it is worth our time to read Saint Luke’s version of the birth of our Lord on our own. It can be found in Luke 2:1-20. We look forward to celebrating Christmas with you at one of our holy Masses. On Christmas Eve Father Manoj will offer the 4:00 Mass. Later, I will offer Mass at Midnight, and also at 10:00 a.m. on Christmas day.
