  • “Savage and Deformed”: Stigma As Drama in the Tempest Jeffrey R
    “Savage and Deformed”: Stigma as Drama in The Tempest Jeffrey R. Wilson The dramatis personae of The Tempest casts Caliban as “asavageand deformed slave.”1 Since the mid-twentieth century, critics have scrutinized Caliban’s status as a “slave,” developing a riveting post-colonial reading of the play, but I want to address the pairing of “savage and deformed.”2 If not Shakespeare’s own mixture of moral and corporeal abominations, “savage and deformed” is the first editorial comment on Caliban, the “and” here Stigmatized as such, Caliban’s body never comes to us .”ס“ working as an uninterpreted. It is always already laden with meaning. But what, if we try to strip away meaning from fact, does Caliban actually look like? The ambiguous and therefore amorphous nature of Caliban’s deformity has been a perennial problem in both dramaturgical and critical studies of The Tempest at least since George Steevens’s edition of the play (1793), acutely since Alden and Virginia Vaughan’s Shakespeare’s Caliban: A Cultural His- tory (1993), and enduringly in recent readings by Paul Franssen, Julia Lup- ton, and Mark Burnett.3 Of all the “deformed” images that actors, artists, and critics have assigned to Caliban, four stand out as the most popular: the devil, the monster, the humanoid, and the racial other. First, thanks to Prospero’s yarn of a “demi-devil” (5.1.272) or a “born devil” (4.1.188) that was “got by the devil himself” (1.2.319), early critics like John Dryden and Joseph War- ton envisioned a demonic Caliban.4 In a second set of images, the reverbera- tions of “monster” in The Tempest have led writers and artists to envision Caliban as one of three prodigies: an earth creature, a fish-like thing, or an animal-headed man.

  • Josephson 2017.3425 Words
    Reconciling Opposites: On the Compositional Genesis of Sibelius’s Scènes historiques II and The Oceanides Nors S. Josephson Sibelius’s Scènes historiques II, Op. 66, were conceived as a sequel to Scènes historiques I, Op. 25, which had been completed in September 1911 as a revision of Nos. 2, 5 and 4 (or Tableaux 1, 4 and 3) from the earlier Press Celebrations Music of 1899. Furthermore, Scènes historiques II also echo certain aspects of Sibelius’s Karelia Suite, Op. 11, notably the E flat major fanfares of the well-known Intermezzo (composed in 1893). Significantly, Sibelius had written to Breitkopf & Härtel at the end of 1909 – in response to his publisher’s entreaties – that ‘it would be easy to make a suite in the Carelia style’ (‘eine Suite in Style Carelia sich gut machen lässt’[1]). The actual music of Sibelius’s Scènes historiques II was composed between 28th May 1909 (the day he mentioned in his diary that the first movement [Die Jagd] was being planned) and March/April1912.[2] On 1st July 1911 he refers to both an overture (likely the future Die Jagd with its subtitle, Ouvertüre) and a suite – two works that are again listed in his entries for 9th and 11th January 1912 (there worded Suite symphonique). Not until 20th January 1912 does Die Jagd become synonymous with the above-mentioned overture (‘for a limited characteristic orchestra’ with bass clarinet and horns). Sibelius worked especially hard on Die Jagd between 16th December 1911 and 19th February 1912. From his entries on 4th and 15th February we learn that he extensively revised the hunting fanfares in Die Jagd – which are frequently related to sketches for Sibelius’s Cassazione, Op.

  • Valse Triste, Op. 44, No. 1
    Much of the Sibelius Violin Concerto’s beauty comes from its eccentricity — while it has elements of a traditional Romantic concerto, Sibelius constantly asks the musicians to play in quirky, counterintuitive ways, and often pits the soloist and orchestra against each other. BOB ANEMONE, NCS VIOLIN Valse triste, Op. 44, No. 1 JEAN SIBELIUS BORN December 8, 1865, in Hämeenlinna, Finland; died September 20, 1957, in Järvenpää, Finland PREMIERE Composed 1903; first performance December 2, 1903, in Helsinki, conducted by the composer OVERVIEW Though Sibelius is universally recognized as the Finnish master of the symphony, tone poem, and concerto, he also produced a large amount of music in the more intimate forms, including the scores for 11 plays — the music to accompany a 1926 production of Shakespeare’s The Tempest was his last orchestral work. Early in 1903, Sibelius composed the music to underscore six scenes of a play by his brother-in-law, Arvid Järnefelt, titled Kuolema (“Death”). Among the music was a piece accompanying the scene in which Paavali, the central character, is seen at the bedside of his dying mother. She tells him that she has dreamed of attending a ball. Paavali falls asleep, and Death enters to claim his victim. The mother mistakes Death for her deceased husband and dances away with him. Paavali awakes to find her dead. Sibelius gave little importance to this slight work, telling a biographer that “with all retouching [it] was finished in a week.” Two years later he arranged the music for solo piano and for chamber orchestra as Valse triste (“Sad Waltz”), and sold it outright to his publisher, Fazer & Westerlund, for a tiny fee.

  • The Tempest and the Discourse of Colonialism
    SYDNEY STUDIES The Tempest and the Discourse of Colonialism G. A. WILKES If the study of Shakespeare itself can be viewed as an act of cultural imperialism, a play like The Tempest can readily be seen as a text which is complicit with colonial power. Prospero is the usurping invader, nervous about the legitimacy of his rule, and Caliban is the representative of the subjugated race, his language lessons seen as an attempt to eradicate his own culture, or to bring it under imperialist control. The best way of entry into this debate is still Stephen Greenblatt's essay of 1976, 'Learning to Curse: Aspects of Linguistic Colonialism in the Sixteenth Century', though its implications may not yet have been fully grasped. l Greenblatt begins with the prospect held out in Samuel Daniel's Musophilus (1599), that in the New World the 'unknowing Nations' are to be enriched with 'the treasure of our tongue', and in this vast civilizing process of the future, who can say What worlds in th' yet unformed Occident May come refin'd with th' accents that are ours? Greenblatt cites Spanish, Portuguese and English authorities to show the assumptions that underlie or accompany this prophecy: that the inhabitants of the new world were without a culture of their own; that they had no language, or else language at the level of gibberish; that they might conform to European conceptions of the Wild Man, or that they might be hardly distinguishable from beasts. Although Greenblatt adduces The Tempest for its exploration of these issues, he does not fit it to any paradigm.

Moreover, the story of the embrace of his own national heritage is a familiar one among composers of his generation. Like Dvořák and Grieg, Sibelius initially gravitated toward the Germanic influence that pervaded European music in the mid- nineteenth century. As a young man he went first to Berlin to study, and later to Vienna. It is in the Austrian capital, enthralled with the music of Anton Bruckner, that he discovered his affinity for the orchestral medium.
