Peltz: Yes. Phayer: And then you came to Poland when you were 3. Why was the reason for that? Peltz: Oh there were very hard times in Germany and my, my parents had relatives in Poland so they came. They originally were from Poland, many years ago. Phayer: Yeah, so approximately what time was this? Peltz: Oh I came in 1918 to Poland. Phayer: 1918?

Phayer: ‐‐rather than to Germany, they decided that—And you were born then in Germany? Peltz: In Germany. Phayer: About, during World War I? Peltz: Yes. Phayer: I see.

Peltz: Oh, I lived there until I was 16 years old. Phayer: Until you were 16 years old. Good. So you really grew up there. Peltz: Yes. Phayer: And so then you had moved back there because, back to Poland, because you had other family there. Peltz: Yes. We had relatives there and‐‐ Phayer: Who—In that same city? Peltz: We were comfortable in our home, yes, this was after the war, everything was destroyed. I’m a war baby, I’m still a war baby. Phayer: But that city was not destroyed during the way. Peltz: The city before, it wasn’t destroyed, but it was, it was a, there was no food there. They were the time of ersatz, it started. Phayer: Yeah, sure. Peltz: In Poland it’s a little bit different.

Phayer: So you were all pretty much the same age, so you would grow up playing with them. 5 Generation After Oral History Project: Paula Peltz Interview Marquette University Libraries Peltz: We are not the same age anymore because 2 brothers are alive, a sister and brother are [unintelligible]. Phayer: But as you were growing up there you were‐‐ Peltz: Yes. Phayer: ‐‐close enough in age, you could‐‐ Peltz: Yes, yes. Phayer: ‐‐play and‐‐ Peltz: Yes. It wasn’t like that in Europe, the boys had to go to a, they went to a special parochial school. Phayer: The boys did not have to? Peltz: The boys went. Phayer: Oh the boys went. Peltz: I didn’t. I went to public school. Phayer: Well before that, when you were just little little children‐‐ Peltz: Little children.

Peltz: I remember our lumberyard and the trees with fruit and the people working there and often just it was, I have very good memories. Phayer: Did you go down and play in the lumberyard? Peltz: Yes, yes. My mother was there and my father and I didn’t want to stay with the maid at home, they always put me with her, just to play and to be around them, yes. We were very family‐oriented. [Unintelligible] as babysitters. No, the maid was to clean and to cook but not to take care of the children. Phayer: So you would go down with your brothers and sisters and you would play‐‐ Peltz: Yes. Small brothers and sisters no. I didn’t go to school until I was 6 years old because I read and wrote already by that time so they had to take me in school but it was 7 years old when we start school, but my brothers, the 2 of them, they went to the yeshiva. This meant they went to a parochial school when they were 3 years old. Phayer: Oh really? 6 Generation After Oral History Project: Paula Peltz Interview Marquette University Libraries Peltz: Oh yes, my father took them there and they would stay there all day long till they got back and then we picked them up. They had to learn‐‐ Phayer: From 3 years old? Peltz: Yes. A boy had to develop his mind. Phayer: And, and that was just for the boys, the girls‐‐ Peltz: No, not the girls but when a girl was smart, she was [unintelligible]. Picking up everything from the boys, yes. Phayer: Why was that? Peltz: Oh it was, this was, this was, it was, I don’t know. It’s a family tradition. It was like that. But I knew everything that they knew. Phayer: You had picked it up. Peltz: Yes. And‐‐ Phayer: And how much younger was the first one, first born? Peltz: 2 years. And the other one 2 years. So it was a difference of 4 years. But I picked up everything. They didn’t pick up but I did. I used to dance [unintelligible]. Phayer: What was your mother and your father like? Do you remember being very close to your father? Peltz: Yes.

    INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. Thefollowing explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page ($)''. If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. Whan an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that die photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You w ill find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections w ith a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again — beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation.

I heard that ‘Hamlet’ was produced in Paris, but I am sure that I would not travel far to see a French ‘Hamlet.’ Germans can play Shakespeare because the spirit of the language is similar. Moreover, they possess the necessary weight and repose, and their translations of Shakespeare and other English plays are excellent (Modjeska 1910: 232).

    STAGES OF SUFFERING: PERFORMING ILLNESS IN THE LATE-NINETEENTH-CENTURY THEATRE by Meredith Ann Conti Bachelor of Fine Arts, Denison University, 2001 Master of Arts, University of Pittsburgh, 2007 Submitted to the Graduate Faculty of The School of Arts and Sciences in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Pittsburgh 2011 UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH SCHOOL OF ARTS AND SCIENCES This dissertation was presented by Meredith Ann Conti It was defended on April 11, 2011 and approved by Attilio Favorini, PhD, Professor, Theatre Arts Kathleen George, PhD, Professor, Theatre Arts Michael Chemers, PhD, Associate Professor, Carnegie Mellon University, Drama Dissertation Advisor: Bruce McConachie, PhD, Professor, Theatre Arts ii Copyright © by Meredith Ann Conti 2011 iii STAGES OF SUFFERING: PERFORMING ILLNESS IN THE LATE-NINETEENTH-CENTURY THEATRE Meredith Ann Conti, PhD University of Pittsburgh, 2011 Few life occurrences shaped individual and collective identities within Victorian society as critically as suffering (or witnessing a loved one suffering) from illness. Boasting both a material reality of pathologies, morbidities, and symptoms and a metaphorical life of stigmas, icons, and sentiments, the cultural construct of illness was an indisputable staple on the late-nineteenth- century stage. This dissertation analyzes popular performances of illness (both somatic and psychological) to determine how such embodiments confirmed or counteracted salient medical, cultural, and individualized expressions of illness. I also locate within general nineteenth-century acting practices an embodied lexicon of performed illness (comprised of readily identifiable physical and vocal signs) that traversed generic divides and aesthetic movements. Performances of contagious disease are evaluated using over sixty years of consumptive Camilles; William Gillette’s embodiment of the cocaine-injecting Sherlock Holmes and Richard Mansfield’s fiendishly grotesque transformations in the double role of Dr.

  • Ignacy Jan Paderewski's Sonata in E-Flat Minor
    IGNACY JAN PADEREWSKI’S PIANO SONATA IN E-FLAT MINOR, OPUS 21: INSIGHTS INTO HIS COMPOSITIONAL TECHNIQUE AND PERFORMANCE STYLE Anne Marie Nelson, B.A., M.M. Dissertation Prepared for the Degree of DOCTOR OF MUSICAL ARTS UNIVERSITY OF NORTH TEXAS May 2003 APPROVED: Adam Wodnicki, Major Professor and Examination Chair Deanna Bush, Minor Professor Pamela Mia Paul, Committee Member James C. Scott, Dean of the College of Music C. Neal Tate, Dean of the Robert B. Toulouse School of Graduate Studies Nelson, Anne Marie, Ignacy Jan Paderewski’s Sonata in E-Flat Minor, Op. 21: Insights into his compositional technique and performance style. Doctor of Musical Arts (Performance), May 2003, 192 pp., 9 tables, 80 examples, references, 132 titles. The recordings of the legendary pianist Ignacy Jan Paderewski are a valuable documentation of his piano performance style. Knowledge of late-Romantic performance practices gleaned from Paderewski’s recordings suggest ways of approaching the performance of his Sonata in E-Flat Minor, Op. 21. This Sonata, composed in 1903 near the end of his compositional career, is a work of the highest caliber, deserving a permanent place in the concert pianist’s repertoire. The purpose of this paper is to provide performance suggestions based on Paderewski’s performance style which will produce a performance closer to the spirit of the times in which it was written. This study provides an overview of the project in Chapter 1, and a background of Paderewski’s life as pianist, composer, and statesman in Chapter 2. A time-line chart of his complete works is included for reference.
