    CULTURE REPORT EUNIC YEARBOOK 2011 CULTURE REPORT EUNIC YEARBOOK 2011 Cultural relations are the glue that holds alliances together. The geopolitics of the 21st century mean we need to see a revival of cultural diplomacy. China and India are already expanding their external cultural policies. Despite Europe‘s huge cultural diversity, the EU has still not developed an adequate cultural strategy for its foreign policy. The establishment of the European External Action Service (EEAS) provides an opportunity to tighten up and co-ordinate the EU‘s existing cultural foreign policy. In this edition of the Culture Report, 30 authors from 20 different countries examine what this all means.

    ANNUAL REPORT 2012–13 3 Introduction 5 Metropolitan Opera Board of Directors 7 2012–13 Season Repertory & Events 14 2012–13 Artist Roster 15 The Financial Results 46 Patrons Introduction The Metropolitan Opera’s 2012–13 season featured an extraordinary number of artistic highlights, earning high praise for new productions, while the company nevertheless faced new financial challenges. The Met presented seven new stagings during the 2012–13 season, including the Met premieres of Thomas Adès’s The Tempest and Donizetti’s Maria Stuarda, the second of the composer’s trilogy of Tudor operas (with the third installment planned for a future season). All seven new productions, plus five revivals, were presented in movie theaters around the world as part of the Met’s groundbreaking Live in HD series, which continued to be an important revenue source for the Met, earning $28 million. Combined earned revenue for the Met (Live in HD and box office) totaled $117.3 million. This figure was lower than anticipated as the company continued to face a flat box office, complicated by the effects of Hurricane Sandy, the aftermath of which had a negative impact of approximately $2 million. As always, the season featured the talents of the world’s leading singers, conductors, directors, designers, choreographers, and video artists. Two directors made stunning company debuts: François Girard, with his mesmerizing production of Parsifal on the occasion of Wagner’s bicentennial, and Michael Mayer, whose bold reimagining of Verdi’s Rigoletto in 1960 Las Vegas was the talk of the opera world and beyond. Robert Lepage returned to direct the highly anticipated company premiere of Thomas Adès’s The Tempest, with the composer on the podium.

    Liurandot, Ovvero the Strange Case of Princess Turandot and Slave Liù *

    Rivista di Storia delle Idee 3:1 (2014) pp. 196-218 ISSN.2281-1532 http://www.intrasformazione.com DOI 10.4474/DPS/03/01/ONT124/23 Patrocinata dall’Università degli Studi di Palermo Antonino Fiorenza Liurandot, ovvero The strange case of Princess Turandot and slave Liù * Tra il 1886 e il 1887 lo scrittore inglese Henry Rider Haggard pubblica sulla rivista «The Graphic» un romanzo intitolato She, che ha per protagonista Ayesha, una bellissima donna bianca, in possesso di poteri soprannaturali ed ancora giovane dopo oltre 2000 anni di vita. Ella regna su una sperduta popolazione africana (gli Amahagger), cui si mostra raramente e sempre con il viso coperto da un velo, perché gli uomini, alla visione della sua bellezza, impazziscono d’amore, “perdono la testa” per Lei-cui-si-deve-obbedienza (She-Who-Must-Be-Obeyed). Ma anche essere amati da Ayesha si rivela molto pericoloso: Callicrate, il sacerdote egizio di Iside, del quale la regina si è invaghita, viene da Lei ucciso perché è l'unico che le resiste, mentre nel successivo Ayesha: The Return of She (1905) il suo discendente Leo Vincey, che dovrebbe vendicarlo (il suo cognome significa appunto Vendicatore), ma resta vittima del fascino di Ayesha, muore baciandola, perché il suo corpo mortale non può reggere il potere e l'amore della Donna eterna (questo il titolo di alcune traduzioni italiane di She). Il romanzo di Haggard diventa ben presto popolarissimo, tant’è vero che tra il 1899 e il 1925 ispira ben sei film. Il primo di questi, il brevissimo La Danse du feu o La colonne de feu di Georges Meliès, ci mostra Ayesha mentre si bagna nel Fuoco che, essendo la vita e il sangue della Natura, la rende eternamente giovane, come poi farà nel 1932 nei fumetti di Cino e Franco una sua epigona, la regina Loana, la cui misteriosa fiamma ha dato il titolo al quinto romanzo di Umberto Eco (2004).

His sophisticated Romanticism has a universal quality that is related to the European tradition and yet remains distinctly American. Perhaps this is why his soaring lyricism, rhythmic complexity, and harmonic language appealed to early–and mid–20th- century luminaries such as Fritz Reiner, Arturo Toscanini, Vladimir Horowitz, and Dimitri Mitropoulos. He achieved success early in his career, writing his first opera at age 10, and, at 14, entering Philadelphia’s Curtis Institute of Music, where he excelled in composition, piano, and voice. At 18, he won the Joseph H.

The form of breakdown, buildup and anthem is the main driving force behind trance and house music. This thesis analyzes transcriptions from 22 trance and house songs in order to establish and define new terminology for formal devices used within the breakdown, buildup and anthem sections of the music.
