  • The Tenor and Pianist Miloš Bulajić Was Born 1989 in Bonn, Germany to a Musical Family
    The tenor and pianist Miloš Bulajić was born 1989 in Bonn, Germany to a musical family. As a Belcanto-tenor (tenore di grazia) especially singing the works of Rossini, Donizetti, Bellini and Mozart he is one of the most promising young singers of his generation, so he allready sung lots of the leading roles from this repertoire in numerous operahouses and festivals across europe. Recently he was awarded with the prestigious Italian prize “Premio Arca d´oro Giovani Talenti” which is sponsored by the region of Piemonte and the City of Turin to outstanding young talents. At age seven Miloš Bulajić received piano lessons with Srboljub Dinić, then going on to study Piano at the Hans Eisler University of Music in Berlin and the Julius-Stern Institut in Berlin, graduating with his Concert-Diploma at the University of Music in Würzburg in 2014. He was particularly inspired by Professor Georg Sava (HfM Berlin). Between 1999 and 2002 he was a member of the Domchoir Berlin as well as a member of the children’s choir at the Staatsoper Unter den Linden, Berlin. During his time at the Staatsoper-childrenchoir he had performed as a soloist in numerous productions including TOSCA and LA BOHEME, working with conductors such as Philippe Jordan and Daniel Barenboim. Miloš Bulajić has studied singing with the late Professor Leandra Overmann at the University of Music in Würzburg. His roles there included Ferrando COSI FAN TUTTE, Fenton FALSTAFF and the dancing master ARIADNE AUF NAXOS (directed by Cheryl Studer). He has also taken part in masterclasses at “Accademia della Voce di Torino” with Mariella Devia and Luciana d´Intino.

  • Living with Death: the Humanity in Leo Tolstoy's Prose Dr. Patricia A. Burak Yuri Pavlov
    Living with Death: The Humanity in Leo Tolstoy’s Prose A Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements of the Renée Crown University Honors Program at Syracuse University Liam Owens Candidate for Bachelor of Science in Biology and Renée Crown University Honors Spring 2020 Honors Thesis in Your Major Thesis Advisor: _______________________ Dr. Patricia A. Burak Thesis Reader: _______________________ Yuri Pavlov Honors Director: _______________________ Dr. Danielle Smith, Director Abstract What do we fear so uniquely as our own death? Of what do we know less than the afterlife? Leo Tolstoy was quoted saying: “We can only know that we know nothing. And that is the highest degree of human wisdom.” Knowing nothing completely contradicts the essence of human nature. Although having noted the importance of this unknowing, using the venture of creative fiction, Tolstoy pined ceaselessly for an understanding of the experience of dying. Tolstoy was afraid of death; to him it was an entity which loomed. I believe his early involvements in war, as well as the death of his brother Dmitry, and the demise of his self-imaged major character Prince Andrei Bolkonsky, whom he tirelessly wrote and rewrote—where he dove into the supposed psyche of a dying man—took a toll on the author. Tolstoy took the plight of ending his character’s life seriously, and attempted to do so by upholding his chief concern: the truth. But how can we, as living, breathing human beings, know the truth of death? There is no truth we know of it other than its existence, and this alone is cause enough to scare us into debilitating fits and ungrounded speculation.

  • A Cold, White Light: the Defamiliarizing Power of Death in Tolstoy‟S War and Peace Jessica Ginocchio a Thesis Submitted To
    A Cold, White Light: The Defamiliarizing Power of Death in Tolstoy‟s War and Peace Jessica Ginocchio A thesis submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of the Arts in the Department of Germanic and Slavic Languages and Literatures (Russian). Chapel Hill 2013 Approved by: Christopher Putney Radislav Lapushin Hana Pichova Abstract JESSICA GINOCCHIO: A Cold, White Light: The Defamiliarizing Power of Death in Lev Tolstoy‟s War and Peace (Under the direction of Christopher Putney) In this thesis, I examine the theme of death in War and Peace by Lev Tolstoy. Death in War and Peace causes changes in characters‟ perception of their own lives, spurring them to live “better.” Tolstoy is widely understood to embed moral lessons in his novels, and, even in his early work, Tolstoy presents an ideal of the right way to live one‟s life. I posit several components of this Tolstoyan ideal from War and Peace and demonstrate that death leads characters toward this “right way” through an analysis of the role of death in the transformations of four major characters—Nikolai, Marya, Andrei, and Pierre. ii Table of Contents Chapter: I.

  • Teatro San Carlo
    Naples – Teatro San Carlo History: On the night of February 13th 1816, a fire destroyed a large part San Carlo theatre in less than an hour. The only parts of the building to survive the fire were the external masonry walls. The restoration was carried on in only nine months, was directed by Antonio Niccolini who re-made, in its main features, the 1812 Hall. The Tuscan architect, in fact, still keeps the horseshoe shape of the boxes and the proscenium configuration, just adding the wonderful clock with the low-relief of the "Time and the Hours" that we can still admire. The centre of the ceiling was decorated with a painting by Antonio, Giuseppe and Giovanni Cammarano, Apollo introducing the greatest poets in the world to Minerva. The artists were also responsible for the stage curtain, which was later replaced by the painting Parnassus by Giuseppe Mancinelli and Salvatore Fergola (1854). The restoration of San Carlo Theatre was completed by the side facade made on drawings by the architects Francesco Gavaudan and Pietro Gesuè after the demolition of Palazzo Vecchio between (1838 -1842). As official architect of the royal theatres, Niccolini will also coordinate the next works of maintenance and restoration. Among these activities we remember the modernization of 1844 made with his son Fausto and Francesco Maria Del Giudice. The foyer we can see nowadays, in the eastern wing of the Royal Palace, was buildt in 1937 upon a design of Michele Platanìa. It was completely destroyed in 1943 by a bomb and rebuilt immediately after the war.
