  • Some Historical Perspectives on the Monteverdi Vespers
    CHAPTER V SOME HISTORICAL PERSPECTIVES ON THE MONTEVERDI VESPERS It is one of the paradoxes of musicological research that we generally be- come acquainted with a period, a repertoire, or a style through recognized masterworks that are tacitly or expressly assumed to be representative, Yet a masterpiece, by definition, is unrepresentative, unusual, and beyond the scope of ordinary musical activity. A more thorough and realistic knowledge of music history must come from a broader and deeper ac- quaintance with its constituent elements than is provided by a limited quan- tity of exceptional composers and works. Such an expansion of the range of our historical research has the advan- tage not only of enhancing our understanding of a given topic, but also of supplying the basis for comparison among those works and artists who have faded into obscurity and the few composers and masterpieces that have sur- vived to become the primary focus of our attention today. Only in relation to lesser efforts can we fully comprehend the qualities that raise the master- piece above the common level. Only by comparison can we learn to what degree the master composer has rooted his creation in contemporary cur- rents, or conversely, to what extent original ideas and techniques are re- sponsible for its special features. Similarly, it is only by means of broader investigations that we can detect what specific historical influence the mas- terwork has had upon contemporaries and younger colleagues, and thereby arrive at judgments about the historical significance of the master com- poser. Despite the obvious importance of systematic comparative studies, our comprehension of many a masterpiece stiIl derives mostly from the artifact itself, resulting inevitably in an incomplete and distorted perspective.

  • The Madrigal As Literary Criticism: Veronese Settings of Ariosto's Orlando Furioso
    The Madrigal as Literary Criticism: Veronese Settings of Ariosto's Orlando furioso by Daniel Donnelly McGill University, Montréal Schulich School of Music Dept. of Music Research A thesis submitted to McGill University in partial fulfillment of the requirements of the degree of Master of Arts in Musicology. August, 2008 © 2008 Daniel K. Donnelly A Franco Ciccone Abstract This thesis describes the importance of the amateur academy as a centre for the consumption of both literary and musical works in cinquecento Italy. By occupying a middle space between the public and private spheres, the cultural environment of the academy lends itself particularly well to the practice of analytical “readings” of texts through music. In their musical lezioni of selections from Ariosto's chivalric epic Orlando furioso, Jachet de Berchem, Vincenzo Ruffo, and Jan Nasco show themselves to be concerned with many of the same issues as contemporary literary critics (the explication of imagery and metaphor), but at the same time they also create complex emotional and psychological readings of the subjectivities of the poem's central characters in a manner that lay outside the scope of the writings of Ariosto's contemporary commentators. The association of all three composers and their music with the Accademia Filarmonica di Verona thus suggests that composers indeed had an important rôle to play in academic discussions of literary æsthetics, and that the madrigal can be seen as a form of literary criticism that preserves some aspects of academic discourse that have otherwise been lost. My analysis, in turn, represents a new way to interpret madrigals and draw meaning from them in the context of this discourse.

  • Godard 1 Andrea Alciato and the Politics of the Printed Image: A
    Godard 1 Andrea Alciato and the Politics of the Printed Image: A Study of the Emblemata’s Origins, Evolution, and Abstraction Words signify, things are signified. However, sometimes things too can even signify, like the hieroglyphs in Horapollo and Chaeremon; I too have composed a book of epigrams in this genre; its title is Emblemata.1 Andrea Alciato, a Milanese jurist and erudite Renaissance humanist, wrote this passage in De verborum significatione, his philological interpretation of Roman law that, once published in 1530, further solidified his status as a scholar of international renown.2 Before the publication of this text, Alciato had taught law at universities in Avignon, Milan, and Bourges; he continued teaching until his death in 1550, moving frequently between France and Italy at the request of France’s King Francis I and Francesco Sforza, the Duke of Milan between 1521 and 1535.3 In addition to teaching and writing on law, Alciato also designed the emblem, a complex new literary genre combining word and image that became immensely popular across Europe. The passage cited above has, in recent years, generated much scholarly interest—not among legal historians, but among those who study emblems, or “things” that “signify” –and will provide the focus of my discussion in this paper.4 Even in Alciato’s highly academic work on legal interpretation, he still manages to allude to Greek hieroglyphs, epigrams, and his own collection of text/image forms (and all in only two sentences). Alciato thus clearly intertwined his professional career with his other intellectual pursuits, epitomizing the role of a cultivated Renaissance humanist.
