  • Rameau, Jean-Philippe
    Rameau, Jean-Philippe (b Dijon, bap. 25 Sept 1683; d Paris, 12 Sept 1764). French composer and theorist. He was one of the greatest figures in French musical history, a theorist of European stature and France's leading 18th-century composer. He made important contributions to the cantata, the motet and, more especially, keyboard music, and many of his dramatic compositions stand alongside those of Lully and Gluck as the pinnacles of pre-Revolutionary French opera. 1. Life. 2. Cantatas and motets. 3. Keyboard music. 4. Dramatic music. 5. Theoretical writings. WORKS BIBLIOGRAPHY GRAHAM SADLER (1–4, work-list, bibliography) THOMAS CHRISTENSEN (5, bibliog- raphy) 1. Life. (i) Early life. (ii) 1722–32. (iii) 1733–44. (iv) 1745–51. (v) 1752–64. (i) Early life. His father Jean, a local organist, was apparently the first professional musician in a family that was to include several notable keyboard players: Jean-Philippe himself, his younger brother Claude and sister Catherine, Claude's son Jean-François (the eccentric ‘neveu de Rameau’ of Diderot's novel) and Jean-François's half-brother Lazare. Jean Rameau, the founder of this dynasty, held various organ appointments in Dijon, several of them concurrently; these included the collegiate church of St Etienne (1662–89), the abbey of StSt Bénigne (1662–82), Notre Dame (1690–1709) and St Michel (1704–14). Jean-Philippe's mother, Claudine Demartinécourt, was a notary's daughter from the nearby village of Gémeaux. Al- though she was a member of the lesser nobility, her family, like that of her husband, included many in humble occupations.

  • Papilio Dardanus, Brown, and Papilio Glaucus, Linn
    THE GENETICS OF SOME MIMETIC FORMS OF PAPILIO DARDANUS, BROWN, AND PAPILIO GLAUCUS, LINN. By C. A. CLARKE AND P. M. SHEPPARD The Universit),, Liverpool. (Received, june 3, 1957) Bates (I862) put [brward the hypothesis that some anilnals obtain protection from ~heir predators by resembling or mimicking unpalatable or otherwise protected species and in consequence are mistaken for them by the predators. Mtiller (1879) suggested that even protected species would gain by resembling one another. These two hy-po- theses have been discussed and enlarged upon by many people but comparatively little work has been done either to determine the extent of the protection so afforded or to ascertain the evolutionary steps by which the mimicry has been brought about. The genetic work that has been done in this field (m.ostly with butterflies) suggests that the differences between various mimetic and non-mimetic forms of polymorphic butterflies are controlled by simple mendelian mechanisms, often a single allelomorphic difference. This has led some people, notably Punnett (I915) and more recently Goldschmidt (i945) to maintain that, because the allelomorph must have arisen at a single step by mutation, the mimetic resemblance must also have arisen fully developed from the beginning. This view leads to ~various theoretical difficulties which have been discussed by Ford (1953). Because of these, both Fisher (1930) and Ford (Carpenter and Ford 1933, Ford 1937) take the view that when a mutant pro- ducing some mimetic resemblance is established in a population the resemblance is improved by selection for a gene-complex in which the original effect of the gene is altered towards more perfect mimicry.

  • The Genetics of Papilio Dardanus, Brown. 11. Races Dardanus, Polytrophus, Meseres, and Tibullus
    THE GENETICS OF PAPILIO DARDANUS, BROWN. 11. RACES DARDANUS, POLYTROPHUS, MESERES, AND TIBULLUS C. A. CLARKE AND P. M. SHEPPARD Departments of Medicine and Zoology, University of Liuerpool, England Received September 28, 1959 N Part I (CLARKEand SHEPPARD1959) we described the genetics of P. dar- Idanus race cenea from South Africa. The present paper concerns four other races of the butterflydardanus, polytrophus, meseres and tibullus. The map (Figure I) shows the distribution of these and their geographical relationships FIGURE1.-Distribution and geographical relationship of P. dardanus races. 440 C. A. CLARKE AND P. M. SHEPPARD with P. dardanus cenea. In addition the areas inhabited by the Madagascan race meriones and the Abyssinian race antinorii are indicated, and these forms will be the subject of a separate paper (Part 111). RACE DARDANUS This has the most extensive range of any of the races of P. dardanus. It is found down the West Coast of Africa from Sierra Leone to Angola, and spreads east- wards towards Uganda and Tanganyika Territory to Lake Victoria. In these areas it merges into the transitional race meseres. In the western part of its range the female is almost invariably the mimetic form hippocoon, and this closely resembles the form hippocoonides already described under race cenea from South Africa (Part I). In race dardanus we have bred hippocoon both from the eastern and western parts of its range and have also investigated f. trophonissa, f. niobe and f. plane- moides. The mimetic form cenea has not so far appeared in our material but we have carried out a race cross using this form from South Africa (see below).

  • Rameau's Dardanus, Notes for the English Touring Opera Production
    Rameau’s Dardanus, notes for the English Touring Opera production, 2017 Whether reading of El Dorado or King Solomon’s mines, we are readily captivated by tales of lost cities and treasures whether in fact, fiction or legend… Riches lie to be rediscovered in libraries and archives and in books and scores - and of course in theatres too. It is therefore with great anticipation that we are presenting the first fully professional production of Rameau’s Dardanus in the UK. What’s more, this treasure trove contains some newly unearthed gems which have languished unperformed anywhere since the time of Rameau himself, despite being described by the great biographer Cuthbert Girdlestone as some of the composer’s finest music. So, who is this Dardanus, and what does his story offer the composer and librettist? If his name lives on in the Dardanelles strait which separates Europe from Asia, his deeds do not. But Dardanus is a son of Jupiter and none other than the founder of Troy, and the bitter war he waged against the Phrygians and, moreover, his personal battle to win over King Teucer and his daughter Iphise, provide a fertile environment for opera. It is a framework for Rameau to explore Enlightenment numerous themes, many of which fascinated him throughout his 30-year career, and many of which went on to preoccupy that other great composer for the Enlightenment stage, Mozart. While Rameau is most often linked with Lully (1632-87), he is very much a man of the eighteenth century. That Dardanus has so much in common with Mozart’s first great opera Idomeneo (1781), for instance, is telling, the later opera being based on Danchet’s Idomenée and set by André Campra in Paris in 1712.
