  • San Francisco Silent Film Festival
    True art transcends time. SAN FRANCISCO SILENT FILM FESTIVAL JULY 18–21, 2013 CASTRO THEATRE SAN FRANCISCO SILENT FILM FESTIVAL elcome to our 18th summer festival. The San Francisco Silent Film Festival is a nonprofit organization dedicated to educating the public about silent film as an art form and as a cul- turally valuable historical record. Throughout the year, SFSFF produces events that showcase important titles from the silent era, often in restored or preserved prints, with live musical accompaniment by someW of the world’s finest practitioners of the art of putting music to film. Each presentation exemplifies the extraordinary quality that Academy Award-winning film historian Kevin Brownlow calls “live cinema.” Silent-era filmmakers produced masterpieces that can seem breathtakingly modern. In a remarkably short time after the birth of movies, filmmakers developed all the techniques that made cinema its own art form. The only technique that eluded them was the ability to marry sound to the film print, but these films were never meant to be viewed in silence and it is often obvious that music was a part of the production as well as the exhibition. The absence of recording on the set, though, meant that the camera was free to move with a grace and ele- gance that allowed visual storytell- ing to flourish and made film more than just an adjunct to the stage. It is through these films that the world first came to love movies and learned how to appreciate them as art. They have influenced every generation of filmmakers and con- tinue to inspire audiences nearly a century after they were made.

  • Nonprofessionalized Theatre in Canada's Professional
    Un/Disciplined Performance: Nonprofessionalized Theatre in Canada’s Professional Era by Robin Charles Whittaker A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Centre for Study of Drama University of Toronto © Copyright Robin Charles Whittaker 2010 Un/Disciplined Performance: Nonprofessionalized Theatre in Canada’s Professional Era Robin Charles Whittaker Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Centre for Study of Drama University of Toronto 2010 Abstract The discourse of Western theatre practice is founded on, and maintained as, a legitimizing struggle between the terms “professional” and “amateur.” This study moves beyond the traditional signifiers of Canadian amateur theatre—the Little Theatre Movement, the Dominion Drama Festival and connotations of “inferior” and “dilettantish”—to examine two nonprofessionalized companies that have witnessed the professionalization of Anglo-Canadian theatre in order to argue for the relevance and vitality of contemporary “nonprofessionalized” theatre practices. By drawing from Pierre Bourdieu’s field theory and Michel Foucault’s discourse theory and theories of formations of disciplines, this study argues that theatre professions seek to discipline, delegitimize and exclude nonprofessionalizing practices in order to gain capital (economic, social and cultural) at the expense of the creative freedoms inherent in nonprofessionalized work. It also considers the ways in which theatre scholarship omits critical discussion of amateur practice and how the term

  • Life and Gabriella
    Life and Gabriella By Ellen Anderson Gholson Glasgow Life and Gabriella BOOK FIRST THE AGE OF FAITH CHAPTER I PRESENTS A SHAMELESS HEROINE After a day of rain the sun came out suddenly at five o'clock and threw a golden bar into the deep Victorian gloom of the front parlour. On the window-sill, midway between the white curtains, a pot of blue hyacinths stood in a cracked china plate, and as the sunlight shone into the room, the scent of the blossoms floated to the corner where Gabriella was patiently pulling basting threads out of the hem of a skirt. For a minute her capable hands stopped at their work, and raising her smooth dark head she looked compassionately at her sister Jane, who was sitting, like a frozen image of martyrdom, in the middle of the long horsehair sofa. Three times within the last twelve months Jane had fled from her husband's roof to the protection of her widowed mother, a weak person of excellent ancestry, who could hardly have protected a sparrow had one taken refuge beneath her skirt. Twice before Mrs. Carr had wept over her daughter's woes and returned her, a sullen saint, to the arms of the discreetly repentant Charley; but to-day, while the four older children were bribed to good behaviour with bread and damson preserves in the pantry, and the baby was contentedly playing with his rubber ring in his mother's arms, Gabriella had passionately declared that "Jane must never, never go back!" Nothing so dreadful as this had ever happened before, for the repentant Charley had been discovered making love to his wife's dressmaker, a pretty French girl whom Jane had engaged for her spring sewing because she had more "style" than had fallen to the austerely virtuous lot of the Carr's regular seamstress, Miss Folly Hatch.

THE SCOURING OF THE WHITE HORSE; OR THE LONG VACATION RAMBLE OF A LONDON CLERK. BY THE AUTHOR OF "TOM BROWN'S SCHOOL DAYS." OLD AND NEW See how the Autumn leaves float by, decaying, Down the red whirls of yon rain-swollen stream; So fleet the works of men, back to their earth again; Ancient and holy things fade like a dream. Nay! see the Spring blossoms steal forth a-maying, Clothing with tender buds orchard and glen; So, though old forms go by, ne'er can their spirit die, Look! England's bare bough show green leaf again. KINGSLEY. ILLUSTRATED BY RICHARD DOYLE. Cambridge: MACMILLAN AND CO. AND 23, HENRIETTA STREET, COVENT GARDEN, LONDON. 1859. [The right of translation is reserved] The Salamanca Corpus: The Scouring of the White Horse (1859) [v] PREFACE. THE great success of the festival (or “pastime," as it is called in the neighbourhood) which was held on White Horse Hill on the 17th and 18th of September, 1857, to celebrate the "Scouring of the Horse," according to immemorial custom, led the Committee of Management to think that our fellow-county-men at least, if not our country-men generally, would be glad to have some little printed memorial, which should comprise not only an account of the doings on the Hill on the late occasion, but should also endeavour to gather up the scattered legends and traditions [vi] of the country side, and any authentic historical notices relating to the old monument, of which we west-countrymen are all so fond and proud.
