The one in E-flat is dated June 26, the one in G minor July 25, the one in C major with the fugue-finale August 10. His other works of that year are of little importance with the exception of a piano concerto in D major which he played at the coronation festivities of Leopold II. at Frankfort in 1790. There are canons and piano pieces; there is the orchestration of Handel's "Acis and Galatea" ; there are six German dances and twelve min- uets for orchestra. Nor are the works composed in 1789 of interest with the exception of the clarinet quintet and a string quartet dedi- cated to the King of Prussia. Again we find dances for orchestra, twelve minuets and twelve German dances. Why is this? 1787 was the year of "Don Giovanni"; 1790, the year of "Cosii fan tutte." Was Mozart, as some say, exhausted by the feat of producing three symphonies in such a short time? Or was there some reason for discouragement and consequent idleness ? The Bitter Gluck, composer to the Emperor Joseph II., died No- vember 15, 1787, and thus resigned his position with salary of two thousand florins. Mozart was appointed his successor, but the thrifty Joseph cut down the salary to eight hundred florins. And Mozart at this time was sadly in need of money, as his letters show. In a letter of June, 1788, he tells of his new lodgings, where he L M A new composer whose works are being highly commended by artists and critics Just Issued FOR PIANO A. BOROVSKY, the famous Russian pianist writes:— "I always consider your music quite independent from any influence and very original. From your volume I like 'Mystere* the best. It has a fascinating power and a great deal of atmosphere." JAN SMETERLIN, the great Polish pianist writes:— "It (the Nocturne) is such an intimately charming piano piece and so delightfully written for the instru- ment—and I am going through your other piano music, which interests me greatly." THE ARTHUR P. SCHMIDT CO., 120 Boylston Street could have better air, a garden, quiet. In another, dated June 27, he says : "I have done more work in the ten days that I have lived here than in two months in my other lodgings, and I should be much better here, were it not for dismal thoughts that often come to me. I must drive them resolutely away; for I am living comfortably, pleasantly, and cheaply." He borrowed from Puchberg, a merchant with whom he became acquainted at a Masonic lodge : the letter with Puchberg's memorandum of the amount is in the collection edited by Nbhl. Mozart could not reasonably expect help from the Emperor. The composer of "Don Giovanni" and the "Jupiter" symphony was un- fortunate in his Emperors. We know little or nothing concerning the first years of the three symphonies. Gerber's "Lexicon der Tonktinstler" (1790) speaks appreciatively of him : the erroneous statement is made that the Emperor fixed his salary in 1788 at six thousand florins ; the varied ariettas for piano are praised especially; but there is no mention whatever of any symphony.

  • Les Changements De L'archétype Du Héros Durant La Renaissance De Disney
    Université de Montréal La force du cœur Les changements de l’archétype du héros durant la Renaissance de Disney (1989-1999) par Tamara Rousseau Département d’histoire de l’art et d’études cinématographiques Faculté des Arts et des Sciences Mémoire présenté en vue de l’obtention du grade de M.A. en études cinématographiques Janvier 2019 © Tamara Rousseau, 2019 Résumé Les héros et héroïnes de la Renaissance de Disney (1989-1999) se distinguent de leurs homologues de la période qui précède 1989. Un renforcement de l’héroïcité est clairement présent, mais n’est abordé nulle part dans la littérature théorique. Cette analyse narratologique et comparative présente ces changements en expliquant tout d’abord l’évolution de la définition du héros dans la littérature théorique, puis présente tous les héros et héroïnes de Disney, qu’ils soient fortement représentés ou délaissés par les écrits sur Disney. Les héros et héroïnes sont comparés à des protagonistes similaires de l’autre période pour soulever le niveau d’activité et la place de l’amour et de la sexualité dans la représentation des personnages, mais aussi plusieurs changements qui ne sont pas abordés dans la littérature de Disney : le passage d’opposant à héros, et le changement au niveau du schéma narratif des héros et héroïnes. Un nouvel archétype se dégage ainsi par l’amalgame des structures du périple du héros de Joseph Campbell et de la promesse de la vierge de Kim Hudson. Mots-clés : Disney, Héroïsme, Narratologie, Archétypes i Abstract Heroes and heroines from the Disney Renaissance (1989-1999) stand out from their pre- 1989 counterparts.

Cette histoire est tirée de "Les mille et une nuit" recueil de ceintes arabes. Aladdin ou la lampe merveilleuse se déroule dans le royaume de Perse. Aladdin trouve au centre de la terre une lampe magique. Cette lampe est bien salle. Aladdin et sa mère croient qu'elle en vaudra quelque chose davantage. Soudain, un génie hideux et d'une grandeur gigantesque se leva et parut devant Aladdin et sa mère. Le sorcier est prêt à obéir à l'ordre d'Aladdin et de sa mère comme un esclave. Rajalaxmi Radhakrishnan 12 La Perle 2017 TINTIN Hergé (1907-1983), le créateur de Tintin, est belge et francophone. Les histoires captivantes de son jeune héro, toujours accompagné de son chien Milou, ont passionné des générations d'enfants depuis les années trente. La charité et la simplicité des dessins les lieux mystérieux sur tous les continents où se passent ses aventures, l'humour des personnages, le capitaine Haddock, le professeur Tournesol, les inspecteurs de police Dupont et Dupond. Tous ces ingrédients ont contribué au succès extraordinaire de la série de vingt-quatre albums, traduits dans des dizaines de langues et vendus à des centaines de millions d'exemplaires. Tintin héro parfois naïf mais toujours intrépide a toujours eu la capacité de faire rêver: plus de quinze ans avant que l'américain Neil Armstrong pose son pied sur la lune, le jeune reporter et ses amis y avaient déjà emmené leurs lecteurs dans une fusée conçue par le professeur Tournesol.

By FLORENCE QUIDEAU Dissertation Director: Professor Susan Sidlauskas This dissertation repositions the place of four Romantic artists within the current discussion of Modern sculpture. Today, Jean-Baptiste Carpeaux has displaced Auguste Rodin’s paramount place as the first Modern sculptor. The dynamism, suppleness, truthful movements, appropriate gestures, and accuracy of Carpeaux’s sculptures are considered the epitome of Modernist sculpture. This analysis argues that the portrait- busts and sculpted caricatures of Jean-Pierre Dantan (called Dantan-Jeune), Pierre-Jean David (called David d’Angers), Auguste Préault, and Honoré Daumier exemplified audacious artistic changes made thirty years before Carpeaux. These four artists showed a distinct rejection of formal portraiture and the values of artistic decorum by creating an
