    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. The following 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(s)". 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. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image o f 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 with 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.

Degree awarded March 2014 ii © 2014 Helena Kopchick Spencer iii DISSERTATION ABSTRACT Helena Kopchick Spencer Doctor of Philosophy School of Music and Dance March 2014 Title: The Jardin des Femmes as Scenic Convention in French Opera and Ballet Much scholarship on French grand opera has understandably focused on the monumentality of the genre—its sweeping historical panoramas, public spectacles, and large onstage chorus. This focus is reinforced, for example, by Anselm Gerhard, who associates the chorus with the Parisian crowd in its diversity, autonomy, and even violence, and by Marian Smith, who contrasts grand opera’s magnificent urban and indoor settings with the bucolic countryside locales of ballet-pantomime. Yet this emphasis on the “grandness” of grand opera has obscured the dramaturgical significance of private gardens within French opera of the July Monarchy era.

  • Les Compositeurs Ver 2.Wps
    Burt Bacharach Dusty Springfield The Look Of Love (1967).mp3 Burt Bacharach (12 mai 1928 à Kansas City, Missouri, États-Unis - ) est un pianiste et compositeur américain. Son nom est souvent associé à celui du parolier Hal David. Ils ont produit une œuvre considérable et reconnue qui fait du tandem Bacharach et David deux des plus grands compositeurs de la musique populaire américaine des années 1960 aux années 2000. De Gene Pitney à Trijntje Oosterhuis, en passant par Tom Jones, The Beatles, Aretha Franklin, B.J. Thomas, Dusty Springfield, The Carpenters, Isaac Hayes, Sacha Distel, Claude François, Ron Isley, The Stranglers et Diana Krall, tous ont chanté leur répertoire. L'interprète emblématique du tandem est Dionne Warwick, dont le nom est étroitement associé au répertoire et en particulier au tube Walk on By. Burt Bacharach est aussi connu pour avoir collaboré avec d'autres auteurs comme le rocker Elvis Costello. Son nom est associé au cinéma puisqu'il a composé pour des films (What's New Pussycat?, 1965; After the Fox (en), 1966; Casino Royale, 1967; Butch Cassidy And The Sundance Kid, 1969) et a été l'époux de l'actrice Angie Dickinson. En 2008, il fut un des plus virulents critiques du candidat à la présidence des É.-U. John McCain1. Burt s'est marié à quatre reprises : avec Paula Stewart du 22 décembre 1953 jusqu'à l'année 1958. avec Angie Dickinson de 1965 à 1980. Il a eu Nikki avec elle en 1966. avec Carole Bayer Sager de 1982 à 1991. Il a adopté un fils, Christopher, avec Carole.

The Core is unlike anything else offered at such a large university; it fosters a welcoming com- munity of students and professors who are able to connect on both an academic and personal level. The professors act as mentors, as Plato is to Aristotle; guides, as Virgil is to Dante; and loyal com- panions, as Don Quixote and Sancho Panza are to each other. Throughout our journey together, we have fallen with Milton and climbed with Petrarch, theorized with Hawking and sailed with Malinowski. In the brief time since our matriculation, we have explored two millennia of the most profound and inspira- tional literature, art and music, which are reflected in this volume of the Journal. Special thanks to my incredibly helpful and humorous staff, Zachary for his endless contributions to the Core (words cannot express my gratitude), Professor Tabatabai for his guidance, and Dean Johnson, who has served as the father of our family for these past two years.
