Chapel Hill 2016 Approved by: Clayton Koelb Eric Downing Jonathan Hess Gabriel Trop Inga Pollmann © 2016 Matthew West Feminella ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT MATTHEW WEST FEMINELLA: Staging Spontaneity: Corporeal Expression and the Paradox of Acting in the German Theater Discourse Around 1800 (Under the direction of Clayton Koelb) This dissertation explores how theories of spontaneity and the body are integrated into acting discourses on the German stage. I argue that the spontaneity of the human body represents a recurring feature in the acting discourses around 1800, which provoked a variety of responses from theorists of the theaters. These responses range from theorizing how to utilize corporeal spontaneity for the benefit of the theater to how to diminish its potential inimical effects on dramatic production. Theorizing about actors and spontaneity led these thinkers to re-conceptualize their notions of anthropology, semiotics, media, and human agency. Chapter 1 examines how Gotthold Ephraim Lessing in his correspondences and dramaturgical writings develops acting techniques that seek to reconcile intentionality and spontaneity: actors create mental images of bodies through poetic language that in turn are integrated into their own affective and bodily motions, thus artificially producing the impression of spontaneous natural action on stage. -

Finnish Actress. Ida Aalberg Was Pivotal in Creating the first Expressive Style of the Finnish- Speaking Theatre
Cambridge University Press 978-0-521-76954-9 - The Cambridge Encyclopedia of Stage Actors and Acting Edited by Simon Williams Excerpt More information A Aalberg, Ida (b. Janakkala, Finland, 4 December 1857; d. St Petersburg, 17 January 1915). Finnish actress. Ida Aalberg was pivotal in creating the first expressive style of the Finnish- speaking theatre. She joined the Finnish Theatre in 1874 and was a leading actress before she was thirty, playing Nora (1880), Ophelia (1884), Homsantuu in Työmiehen vaimo (The Worker’s Wife) (1884), and Margarete in Faust (1885). Her dignified interpretation of the title role in The Maid of Orleans by Schiller (1887) helped elevate her to a national icon, reinforced by her marriage to nationalist politician Lauri Kivekäs in 1887. She worked permanently with the Finnish Theatre until 1889 and then guest-starred regu- larly and continued in leading roles. She was the first actress to play Hedda Gabler to critical acclaim (1891) and as Cyprienne in Let’sGetaDivorceshe displayed her comic prowess. Aalberg was always ambitious for an international career. In 1885–94, she was seen in Stockholm, Christiania, Bergen, Berlin, and St Petersburg, and, in 1907, in Hungary. She had a contract with the Dagmar Theatre Company in Copenhagen (1885–7)andtouredwithHaraldMolander’s company in 1894. The Finnish National Theatre invited Aalberg to join its Board and to direct (1908), but her contract was terminated after two years for artistic reasons. There were plans for her return to the National Theatre, but she died in 1915. Aalberg’s acting combined analytic thinking with emotional intensity. -

The Historical and Pedagogical Significance of Excerpts by André-Ernest-Modeste Grétry (1741–1813). Doctor of Musical Arts (Performance), May 2019, 84 pp., 9 figures, bibliography, 50 titles. This collection of 9 vocal works, taken from the oœuvre of André-Ernest-Modeste Grétry (1741–1813), was chosen for their utility in teaching undergrad voice majors. This collection offers a group of songs that are attractive in their simplicity allowing the time in their lessons to be devoted to the instruction of French pronunciation. Grétry’s attention to detail in the setting of French prosody provides undergraduate singers with a collection of songs that offer an immediate understanding as to the nuances of the French language. With funding from an I-GRO grant through the University of North Texas, research was conducted in the archives of the Bibliothèque nationale de France, and work continued in the Grétry Museum in Liège, Belgium. The primary sources found within these locations formulated valuable insights into to the life and influence of Grétry, and provided first-hand experience with research techniques within foreign libraries. -

Indeed the eighteenth century produced few great dramatists; several comic talents perhaps: Sheridan and Goldsmith, Marivaux and Beaumarchais, Goldoni and Gozzi, Holberg and Lessing. But an anthology of world drama could legiti- mately be published without including the works of any of these. Only in the emergent theatre of late eighteenth-century Germany can one point to the major dramas of Goethe and Schiller. Nor could the eighteenth century boast of import- ant innovations in theatre technology, except towards the end of the century with the replacement of candle-light by oil-lamps. What was significant about the theatre of the eighteenth century, however, is that it developed in Continental Europe a function in society unparalleled since its role in ancient Greece. From being an entertainment at court or in the market- place it became a political forum for the bourgeoisie, a focus for national identity and even revolution. It moved from being formal and stylized, or from being vulgar and coarse, to a new level of realism; the stage began to search for authen- ticity and newly to mirror the everyday lives of the spectators. -

THE VIENNESE VOGUE FOR OPÉRA-COMIQUE 1790-1819 : VOL 1. Carolyn Kirk A Thesis Submitted for the Degree of PhD at the University of St Andrews 1985 Full metadata for this item is available in Research@StAndrews:FullText at: http://research-repository.st-andrews.ac.uk/ Please use this identifier to cite or link to this item: http://hdl.handle.net/10023/7282 This item is protected by original copyright The Viennese vogue for opera—comique 1790-1819 submitted by Carolyn Kirk In fulfilment of the requirements for Ph.D. degree of the University of St. Andrews, November, 1983 ii ABSTRACT In the mid-eighteenth century, Vienna, like other European cities, began to manifest the influence of modern French culture; In 1752, a troupe of French players was appointed to the Austrian court to entertain the aristocracy. Four years later, links were forged • between the Parisian and Viennese stages via Favart who corresponded with Count Durazzo in Vienna and sent opera scores and suggestions about personnel. In 1765 problems with finance and leadership led to dismissal of Vienna's first French troupe but others performed there for shorter periods between .:1765 and 1780. Opera-comique was introduced to Vienna by French players. Occasional performances of opera-comique in German translation took place in Vienna during the 1770s. When, in 1778, the Nationalsingspiel was founded, French opera formed part of the repertoire because of a lack of good German works. A renewed interest in opèra-comique began in about 1790 when fear of revolutionary France and the reigns of Leopold and Franz led to a return of interest in Italian opera at the court theatres, and the virtual disappearance of opêra-comique from its repertoire.
