  • I Had to Fight with the Painters, Master Carpenters
    ‘I had to fight with the painters, master carpenters, actors, musicians and the dancers’: Rehearsals, performance problems and audience reaction in Renaissance spectacles Jennifer Nevile Early Dance Circle Annual Lecture, 21 February 2021 In 1513 Castiglione wrote about the difficulties he was having during the rehearsals for a production at Urbino. [the intermedio] about the battles was unfortunately true - to our disgrace. … [The intermedi] were made very much in a hurry, and I had to fight with the painters, the master carpenters, the actors, musicians and the dancers.1 Unfortunately, we do not know exactly what caused the arguments between Castiglione and all the personnel involved in this production, and neither do we know how these difficulties were resolved. But Castiglione’s letter reminds us that then, as now, not everything went as smoothly as those in charge would have hoped for. In spite of the many glowing reports as to the success of theatrical spectacles in early modern Europe, the wonder and amazement of the audience, the brilliance of the glittering costumes, the quantity of jewels and precious stones worn by the performers and the virtuosity of the dancing, problems were encountered during production and the performance. It is this aspect of Renaissance spectacles that is the focus of today’s lecture. I will begin with a discussion of the desire for a successful outcome, and what efforts went into achieving this aim, before moving to an examination of what disasters did occur, from audience over-crowding and noise, stage-fright of the performers, properties being too big to fit through the door into the hall in which the performance was taking place, to more serious catastrophes such as a fire during a performance.

Chair Jan Sjaavik Marshall Brown Program Authorized to Offer Degree: Scandinavian Studies ©Copyright 2013 Kirstine Marie Kastbjerg Parts of chapter 7 are reprinted by permission of the publishers from “The Aesthetics of Surface: the Danish Gothic 1820-2000,” in Gothic Topographies ed. P.M. Mehtonen and Matti Savolainen (Farnham: Ashgate, 2013), pp. 153–167. Copyright © 2013 University of Washington Abstract Reading the Surface: The Danish Gothic of B.S. Ingemann, H.C. Andersen, Karen Blixen and Beyond Kirstine Marie Kastbjerg Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Professor in Danish Studies Marianne Stecher Department of Scandinavian Studies Despite growing ubiquitous in both the popular and academic mind in recent years, the Gothic has, perhaps not surprisingly, yet to be examined within the notoriously realism-prone literary canon of Denmark. This dissertation fills that void by demonstrating an ongoing negotiation of Gothic conventions in select works by canonical Danish writers such as B.S. Ingemann, Hans Christian Andersen, and Karen Blixen (Isak Dinesen), as well as contemporary writers such as Peter Høeg and Leonora Christina Skov. This examination does not only broaden our understanding of these culturally significant writers and the discourses they write within and against, it also adds to our understanding of the Gothic – an infamously malleable and indefinable literary mode – by redirecting attention to a central feature of the Gothic that has not received much critical attention: the emphasis on excess, spectacle, clichéd conventions, histrionic performances, its hyperbolic rhetorical style, and hyper-visual theatricality.

Back in the day, she would have as he makes his appeal multiple courses of delicious food, paired with all the right for the Diocese of wines, served in the best china and crystal, put up elaborate decorations, had party favors for guests, and gave gifts to Nakuru in Kenya. everyone to take home. Guests would come dressed up and ready for an experience like no other. I wanted to relate this party to last weekend’s Gospel passage of Martha, Mary, and the one thing necessary. As I switched things up, I was not comparing this woman and her parties to Martha, worried about so many things, but rather compared her to Mary who understood what was most important: the guest! These parties were all about the guests. Jesus, who tells of the one thing necessary, is saying to Martha, Mary, and to us that the guest is most important. When we invite Jesus into our Thank you to all of the hearts, he is our guest. Jesus wants us to be attentive to volunteers that helped what he has to say.

  • Power and Piety: Examining the Papal Tiara in The
    POWER AND PIETY: EXAMINING THE PAPAL TIARA IN THE CONTEXT OF THE MODERN CHURCH By Manon Wogahn A senior thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree in Bachelor of Arts in Art History CHAPMAN UNIVERSITY Orange, California May 2018 1 The papal tiara has been a symbol of the papacy since its first appearance around the eighth century. The exact symbolism of the three-tiered crown is unknown; a popular interpretation is that it represents the three divisions of the Christian Church: the Church Militant, Church Penitent, and Church Triumphant. Also called the triregnum, the tiara was last worn in public in 1963 by Pope Paul VI, who later donated his crown for charity. Since then, the last four popes, including the current Pope Francis, have received tiaras but have never worn them publicly. This project analyzes the rejection of the papal tiara and of the coronation ceremony as a symbol of the changing values of the modern papacy relationship between the disappearance of the papal tiara and the changing values of the modern papacy after the Second Vatican Council (1962-65). By examining the history of Paul VI’s crown within the context of a centuries-old tradition, I show how the papal tiara has been transformed from a symbol of the pope’s temporal power into a representation of material wealth that has become incompatible with the image of modest piety promoted by the contemporary papacy. In the 2016 drama television series The Young Pope, the fictional American pontiff Pius XIII causes shock and unrest within the Vatican with his controversial conservative philosophies and rejection of his predecessor’s liberality.

  • Aglianico from Wikipedia, the Free Encyclopedia
    Aglianico From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Aglianico (pronounced [aʎˈʎaːniko], roughly "ahl-YAH-nee- koe") is a black grape grown in the Basilicata and Campania Aglianico regions of Italy. The vine originated in Greece and was Grape (Vitis) brought to the south of Italy by Greek settlers. The name may be a corruption of vitis hellenica, Latin for "Greek vine."[1] Another etymology posits a corruption of Apulianicum, the Latin name for the whole of southern Italy in the time of ancient Rome. During this period, it was the principal grape of the famous Falernian wine, the Roman equivalent of a first-growth wine today.

From Greece it was brought to Italy by settlers to Cumae near modern-day Pozzuoli, and from there spread to various points in the regions of Campania and Basilicata. While still grown in Italy, the original Greek plantings seem to have disappeared.[2] In ancient Rome, the grape was the principal component of the world's earliest first-growth wine, Falernian.[1] Ruins from the Greek Along with a white grape known as Greco (today grown as Greco di Tufo), the grape settlement of Cumae.
