Jean Knauf. La Comédie-Française 1939 PPA
Jean Knauf LLaa CCoommééddiiee--FFrraannççaaiissee 11993399 Cyrano de Bergerac d’Edmond Rostand, mise en scène de Pierre Dux © CF / Manuel frères - 1 - - 2 - Avant-propos Le 2 septembre 1939, la France décrète la mobilisation générale et le 3, elle déclare la guerre à l’Allemagne. Conséquence de cet événement, une partie de la troupe partie pour la première fois en tournée en Amérique du Sud, depuis le 20 juin, se trouve bloquée en vue du port de Marseille. Elle rallie Paris le 9 au lieu du 4, consignée à bord du Campana ! 1939 sera la dernière année de l’Administration Bourdet. Les succès se poursuivent sur la lancée des deux années précédentes. Cyrano de Bergerac est joué à 90 reprises. Désormais, André Brunot alterne avec Denis d’Inès dans le rôle-titre et Marie Bell avec Lise Delamare dans le personnage de Roxane 1. Asmodée de François Mauriac connaît toujours le succès (26 représentations, soit un total de 127) de même que Madame Sans-Gêne (22 représentations pour un total de 164). 1939 est bien sûr dominé par le début de la guerre mais c’est aussi le 150° anniversaire de la Révolution française de 1789. Une matinée poétique est consacrée le 17 juin à cet événement. Romain Rolland entre au répertoire à cette occasion avec le Jeu de l’Amour et de la Mort. 2 L’Ile des Esclaves de Marivaux, une œuvre qui préfigure l’esprit de 1789, accompagne la pièce de Romain Rolland. C’est la dix-huitième pièce de Marivaux à entrer au répertoire, un auteur que le XVIII° siècle comprit mal mais à qui le XX° siècle rend enfin justice 3. -

BUTLER JOURNAL OF UNDERGRADUATE RESEARCH, VOLUME 7 MUSICAL HYBRIDIZATION AND POLITICAL CONTRADICTION: THE SUCCESS OF ARTHUR HONEGGER’S ANTIGONE IN VICHY FRANCE EMMA K. SCHUBART, UNIVERSITY OF NORTH CAROLINA, CHAPEL HILL MENTOR: SHARON JAMES Abstract Arthur Honegger’s modernist opera Antigone appeared at the Paris Opéra in 1943, sixteen years after its unremarkable premiere in Brussels. The sudden Parisian success of the opera was extraordinary: the work was enthusiastically received by the French public, the Vichy collaborationist authorities, and the occupying Nazi officials. The improbable wartime triumph of Antigone can be explained by a unique confluence of compositional, political, and cultural realities. Honegger’s compositional hybridization of French and German musical traditions, as well as his opportunistic commercial motivations as a Swiss composer working in German-occupied France, certainly aided the success of the opera. -
Jean Knauf. La Comédie-Française 1943 PPA
Jean Knauf LLaa CCoommééddiiee--FFrraannççaaiissee 11994433 Répétition du Soulier de satin de Paul Claudel, mise en scène Jean-Louis Barrault © Comédie-Française 1 2 Avant propos Quelle année exceptionnelle que cette année 1943 ! La Comédie-Française créé sept pièces ! Et parmi ces créations plusieurs évènements exceptionnels qui font date dans l’histoire du théâtre, au premier rang desquels Le Soulier de satin de Paul Claudel. Le Soulier de Satin est un théâtre-monde. Cette œuvre-monument constitue une triple révolution : 1. Un texte poétique à l’opposé de toute forme déjà connue. Le drame s’appuie sur des faits connus mais il n’est en rien un drame historique ; une réalité poétisée ; une écriture entre mélodrame et symbolisme ! Paul Claudel ne fait-il pas référence à une des pièces les plus étonnantes de Shakespeare, Troïlus et Cressida ? C’est tout un rapport au temps et à l’histoire qui est bouleversé. 2. Ce théâtre-monde implique un rapport à un espace multiple. D’où la nécessaire révolution au plan de la scénographie car l’action se situe toujours ici et ailleurs, en Espagne et en Afrique. “J’ai été l’ouvrier d’un rêve“ , dit Don Pélage. La frontière entre réalité et imaginaire se brouille dans ce théâtre écrit à l’aune du siècle d’or espagnol et des influences orientales que Claudel connaît si bien ; 3. Le comédien doit alors trouver un jeu, une diction, des postures … aptes à rendre des situations loin des conventions du réalisme psychologique. Qu’une pièce comme Le Soulier de satin ait été créée à la Comédie-Française en 1943, pendant l’occupation, dans une mise en scène d’un jeune sociétaire, Jean-Louis Barrault, ne cesse de surprendre. -
Marginalia and Commentaries in the Papyri of Euripides, Sophocles and Aristophanes
Nikolaos Athanassiou Marginalia and Commentaries in the Papyri of Euripides, Sophocles and Aristophanes PhD thesis / Dept. of Greek and Latin University College London London 1999 C Name of candidate: Nikolaos Athanassiou Title of Thesis: Marginalia and commentaries in the papyri of Euripides, Sophocles and Aristophanes. The purpose of the thesis is to examine a selection of papyri from the large corpus of Euripides, Sophocles and Aristophanes. The study of the texts has been divided into three major chapters where each one of the selected papyri is first reproduced and then discussed. The transcription follows the original publication whereas any possible textual improvement is included in the commentary. The commentary also contains a general description of the papyrus (date, layout and content) as well reference to special characteristics. The structure of the commentary is not identical for marginalia and hy-pomnemata: the former are examined in relation to their position round the main text and are treated both as individual notes and as a group conveying the annotator's aims. The latter are examined lemma by lemma with more emphasis upon their origins and later appearances in scholia and lexica. After the study of the papyri follows an essay which summarizes the results and tries to incorporate them into the wider context of the history of the text of each author and the scholarly attention that this received by the Alexandrian scholars or later grammarians. The main effort is to place each papyrus into one of the various stages that scholarly exegesis passed especially in late antiquity. Special treatment has been given to P.Wurzburg 1, the importance of which made it necessary that it occupies a chapter by itself. -

A Psychoanalytic Study of Sophocles' Antigone Authors: Almansi, Renato, J

This examination helps to foster an understanding of the conceptual place of Antigone within the Oedipus Trilogy, its relationship to Oedipus Rex, and the complementary character of these two tragedies. Accession Number: PAQ.060.0069A Database: PEP Archive A Psychoanalytic Study of Sophocles' Antigone Renato J. Almansi, M.D.; 200 East 89th St., Apt. 41B New York, NY 10128 ABSTRACT This paper examines, in a detailed and comprehensive fashion, the unconscious motivations of the main protagonists of Sophocles' Antigone and the play's general structure as a psychoanalytically coherent whole. This examination helps to foster an understanding of the conceptual place of Antigone within the Oedipus Trilogy, its relationship to Oedipus Rex, and the complementary character of these two tragedies. Antigone was first produced in the year 442 B.C., the first of the three plays of the Oedipus Trilogy. Oedipus Rex was produced between 430 and 425 B.C., and Oedipus at Colonus posthumously in 401 B.C. As we shall see, this sequence may be psychologically significant. Since the very beginning, Antigone has been the object of great interest: it immediately made Sophocles famous, and throughout the ages it has caused an outpouring of comments and hypotheses stimulated by the multiplicity of political, social, and philosophical issues the play seems to raise and by its enigmatic quality. -
