  • Operetta After the Habsburg Empire by Ulrike Petersen a Dissertation
    Operetta after the Habsburg Empire by Ulrike Petersen A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Music in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in Charge: Professor Richard Taruskin, Chair Professor Mary Ann Smart Professor Elaine Tennant Spring 2013 © 2013 Ulrike Petersen All Rights Reserved Abstract Operetta after the Habsburg Empire by Ulrike Petersen Doctor of Philosophy in Music University of California, Berkeley Professor Richard Taruskin, Chair This thesis discusses the political, social, and cultural impact of operetta in Vienna after the collapse of the Habsburg Empire. As an alternative to the prevailing literature, which has approached this form of musical theater mostly through broad surveys and detailed studies of a handful of well‐known masterpieces, my dissertation presents a montage of loosely connected, previously unconsidered case studies. Each chapter examines one or two highly significant, but radically unfamiliar, moments in the history of operetta during Austria’s five successive political eras in the first half of the twentieth century. Exploring operetta’s importance for the image of Vienna, these vignettes aim to supply new glimpses not only of a seemingly obsolete art form but also of the urban and cultural life of which it was a part. My stories evolve around the following works: Der Millionenonkel (1913), Austria’s first feature‐length motion picture, a collage of the most successful stage roles of a celebrated

I understand that this thesis will be made available from the OhioLINK ETD Center and the Maag Library Circulation Desk for public access.

Kasvinsky, Dean of School of Graduate Studies & Research Date ABSTRACT Erasing Sid Murphy is a young adult novel. It is the story of a tenacious 16-year-old girl named Cassidy Murphy who experiences a traumatic incident on a school ski trip. Suffering from post- traumatic stress, she develops an eating disorder. She eventually gets the help she needs and is able to face her various issues. Chapter One It's four in the morning and I'm sitting on my porch steps waiting for my friends. The streetlight casts a pale glow over my yard and I'm so exhausted that the snow is starting to shape- shift into an enormous feather bed and soft cotton sheets. I should go back inside where it's warm and wait by the window but I'm more tired than I am cold so I guess I'll just stay where I am, hunkered down like a frozen gargoyle.

    The Short-Timers The Short-Timers by Gustav Hasford Table of Contents Part 1: The Spirit of the Bayonet Part 2: Body Count Part 3: Grunts The Spirit of the Bayonet I think that Vietnam was what we had instead of happy childhoods. --Michael Herr, Dispatches The Marines are looking for a few good men... The recruit says that his name is Leonard Pratt. Gunnery Sergeant Gerheim takes one look at the skinny red-neck and immediately dubs him "Gomer Pyle." We think maybe he's trying to be funny. Nobody laughs. Dawn. Green Marines. Three junior drill instructors screaming, "GET IN LINE! GET IN LINE! YOU WILL NOT MOVE! YOU WILL NOT SPEAK!" Red brick buildings. Willow trees hung with with Spanish moss. Long, irregular lines of sweating civilians standing tall on yellow footprints painted in a pattern on the concrete deck. Parris Island, South Carolina, the United States Marine Corps Recruit Depot, an eight-week college for the phony-tough and the crazy-brave, constructed in a swamp on an island, symmetrical but sinister like a suburban death camp. Gunnery Sergeant Gerheim spits. "Listen up, herd. You maggots had better start looking like United States Marine Corps recruits. Do not think for one second that you are Marines. You just dropped by to pick up a set of dress blues. Am I right, ladies? Sorry 'bout that." A wiry little Texan in horn-rimmed glasses the guys are already calling "Cowboy" says, "Is that you, John Wayne? Is this me?" Cowboys takes off his pearl-gray Stetson and fans his sweaty face.

This committee was formed at the 1977 training conference at Virginia Beach, VA, in recognition of a need for a common frame of reference and clear definitions of the terms most frequently used in the discipline. This pioneering group consisted of the following individuals: George R. Wilson, Chairman Metropolitan Police, D.C. James Berglund, Member Michigan State Police Don Gunnell, Member Chicago Police Department Evan Hodge, Member Vermont State Police Marshall K. Robinson, Member Waterbury Connecticut Police Department John G. Ward, Sr., Member Virginia Division of Forensic Sciences This committee eventually produced two additional editions of the AFTE Glossary in 1986 and 1994, with great success. The uniquely forensic perspective reflected in these three editions have been a great assistance to thousands of forensic firearms examiners and toolmark examiners for decades. As the original Standardization Committee realized, this type of reference work can never be regarded as complete. In any forensic discipline, innovations and developments rapidly enter the field constantly and must be addressed.
