Miloslav Ištvan and the Innovations of the Brno School in the Czechoslovak Socialist Republic UNDER THE PARTY FAÇADE: MILOSLAV IŠTVAN AND THE INNOVATIONS OF THE BRNO SCHOOL IN THE CZECHOSLOVAK SOCIALIST REPUBLIC A Monograph Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree DOCTOR OF MUSICAL ARTS by Katelyn A. Bouska May 2016 Examining Committee Members: Dr. Charles Abramovic, Advisory Chair, Department of Keyboard Studies Dr. Joyce Lindorff, Department of Keyboard Studies Dr. Cynthia Folio, Department of Music Studies Dr. Steven Zohn, External Reader, Department of Music Studies © Copyright 2016 by Katelyn Bouska All Rights Reserved ii ABSTRACT The innovative compositions of Miloslav Ištvan (1928-1990) and his influential theoretical writings contributed to the creation of the modern composition school in Brno, capitol of Moravia in the present Czech Republic. Through the vehicle of his three piano sonatas (unpublished, but composed in 1954, 1959 and 1979), this monograph places Ištvan and his music against the political background of ideological repression in the Czechoslovak Socialist Republic. The unique blend of Moravian folk music and fierce pride in Czech culture are clearly evident throughout Ištvan’s compositional oeuvre and specifically in his piano music. In particular, his sheer creativity and courage to create his own voice under severe artistic deprivation combine to create a body of work that remains one of the most prominent influences in the present-day compositional scene in Brno. Each of the six chronological sections in this monograph employs a single year as a frame of reference. These years were selected both for their political significance and to represent an important event in Ištvan’s personal or musical life. In addition to the biographical details, political context and analysis of the piano sonatas, other significant compositions and contemporary writings are considered to trace the developmental thread of Moravian music. Ištvan’s search for artistic expression brings the lineage of his direct predecessor, Brno compositional giant Leoš Janáček, into the avant-garde New Music movement of the 1960s. Ištvan’s further work as a composition professor and writer of theoretical texts in the 1970s and 80s continues to influence the current generation of composers in the Czech Republic. This monograph calls attention to a composer and his iii rich body of work, created during politically turbulent times, that remains virtually unknown outside his country of origin. iv ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I would like to thank all the members of my committee, Drs. Charles Abramovic, Joyce Lindorff, Cynthia Folio and Steven Zohn. They have contributed their support, encouragement and advice to this project in many helpful ways. I would like to further acknowledge the appreciation I have for Dr. Abramovic for the tireless inspiration he has offered throughout the course of my studies. Since my time at Temple University, he has expanded and influenced the way I approach the piano in a profound way. Additionally, I am grateful to Dr. Lindorff for her warm support and encouragement to pursue my independent projects as well as the introduction into the rich world of historical keyboard instruments. I would like to thank Jerry Bouska for his unwavering support of my endeavors and Elaine Bouska for her invaluable editing and writing advice. Additional thanks to Štěpán Filípek for introducing me to the compositional world of Miloslav Ištvan and for providing me with copies of the manuscripts of Ištvan’s three piano sonatas. I would also like to express my thanks to Sr. Anita Smisek whose generous sharing of her contacts and information has paved the way for my research in many unexpected ways. Two pianists in particular have contributed to my understanding of playing Czech music. I wish to thank Radoslav Kvapil in Prague and Jan Jiraský in Brno for their incredible generosity in sharing their rich musical lineage. I also want to thank Jindřiška Bártová for sharing her personal experience with Miloslav Ištvan and to Peter Macek for generously providing me an English version of his important text. Thank you to Jindřich Bajgar and the rest of the staff at the Hudební v informační středisko who provided me access to many important scores. There are many others that liberally gave of their time to introduce me to the rich world of Czech music including Alice Fiedlerová, Jíndra Nečasová Nardelli, Martin Vojtíšek and Petra Koňárková. Finally, thank you to the Graduate School at Temple University that generously funded my nine-week research trip through a Summer Research Grant. vi TABLE OF CONTENTS Page ABSTRACT

  • 2019 European Elections the Weight of the Electorates Compared to the Electoral Weight of the Parliamentary Groups
    2019 European Elections The weight of the electorates compared to the electoral weight of the parliamentary groups Guillemette Lano Raphaël Grelon With the assistance of Victor Delage and Dominique Reynié July 2019 2019 European Elections. The weight of the electorates | Fondation pour l’innovation politique I. DISTINGUISHING BETWEEN THE WEIGHT OF ELECTORATES AND THE ELECTORAL WEIGHT OF PARLIAMENTARY GROUPS The Fondation pour l’innovation politique wished to reflect on the European elections in May 2019 by assessing the weight of electorates across the European constituency independently of the electoral weight represented by the parliamentary groups comprised post-election. For example, we have reconstructed a right-wing Eurosceptic electorate by aggregating the votes in favour of right-wing national lists whose discourses are hostile to the European Union. In this case, for instance, this methodology has led us to assign those who voted for Fidesz not to the European People’s Party (EPP) group but rather to an electorate which we describe as the “populist right and extreme right” in which we also include those who voted for the Italian Lega, the French National Rally, the Austrian FPÖ and the Sweden Democrats. Likewise, Slovak SMER voters were detached from the Progressive Alliance of Socialists and Democrats (S&D) Group and instead categorised as part of an electorate which we describe as the “populist left and extreme left”. A. The data collected The electoral results were collected list by list, country by country 1, from the websites of the national parliaments and governments of each of the States of the Union. We then aggregated these data at the European level, thus obtaining: – the number of individuals registered on the electoral lists on the date of the elections, or the registered voters; – the number of votes, or the voters; – the number of valid votes in favour of each of the lists, or the votes cast; – the number of invalid votes, or the blank or invalid votes.

CEU eTD Collection i Abstract This work charts the contemporary history of the socialist press in Britain, investigating its coverage of world events in the aftermath of the fall of state socialism. In order to do this, two case studies are considered: firstly, the seventy-eight day NATO bombing campaign over the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia in 1999, and secondly, the overthrow of Slobodan Milošević in October of 2000. The British socialist press analysis is focused on the Morning Star, the only English-language socialist daily newspaper in the world, and the multiple publications affiliated to minor British socialist parties such as the Socialist Workers’ Party and the Communist Party of Great Britain (Provisional Central Committee). The thesis outlines a broad history of the British socialist movement and its media, before moving on to consider the case studies in detail.
