  • Handel's Oratorios and the Culture of Sentiment By
    Virtue Rewarded: Handel’s Oratorios and the Culture of Sentiment by Jonathan Rhodes Lee A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the Requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Music in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Davitt Moroney, Chair Professor Mary Ann Smart Professor Emeritus John H. Roberts Professor George Haggerty, UC Riverside Professor Kevis Goodman Fall 2013 Virtue Rewarded: Handel’s Oratorios and the Culture of Sentiment Copyright 2013 by Jonathan Rhodes Lee ABSTRACT Virtue Rewarded: Handel’s Oratorios and the Culture of Sentiment by Jonathan Rhodes Lee Doctor of Philosophy in Music University of California, Berkeley Professor Davitt Moroney, Chair Throughout the 1740s and early 1750s, Handel produced a dozen dramatic oratorios. These works and the people involved in their creation were part of a widespread culture of sentiment. This term encompasses the philosophers who praised an innate “moral sense,” the novelists who aimed to train morality by reducing audiences to tears, and the playwrights who sought (as Colley Cibber put it) to promote “the Interest and Honour of Virtue.” The oratorio, with its English libretti, moralizing lessons, and music that exerted profound effects on the sensibility of the British public, was the ideal vehicle for writers of sentimental persuasions. My dissertation explores how the pervasive sentimentalism in England, reaching first maturity right when Handel committed himself to the oratorio, influenced his last masterpieces as much as it did other artistic products of the mid- eighteenth century. When searching for relationships between music and sentimentalism, historians have logically started with literary influences, from direct transferences, such as operatic settings of Samuel Richardson’s Pamela, to indirect ones, such as the model that the Pamela character served for the Ninas, Cecchinas, and other garden girls of late eighteenth-century opera.

  • Synopsis the Action Is Set in Roman-Occupied Antioch in The
    Synopsis The action is set in Roman-occupied Antioch in the early 4th century, and opens with a decree given by the President and Governor, Valens. In honour of the Emperor Diocletian’s birthday, all citizens shall offer sacrifice to the Roman goddesses Venus and Flora, or be severely punished. Valens gives his officer Septimius responsibility for ensuring general compliance. The chorus of Romans cheerfully endorses the decree, but a junior Roman officer, Didymus, asks that loyal citizens whose consciences prevent them from obeying may be spared punishment. Valens responds with yet fiercer threats of reprisal, and the chorus relishes the prospect of the recusants’ suffering. Alone with Septimius, Didymus condemns persecution and speaks out for freedom of belief. Septimius, clearly suspecting Didymus’ Christianity, affirms his own loyalty to Roman rule but appeals to the spirit of pity to instil universal tolerance. The scene changes to a meeting of the persecuted Christian community. Theodora, Princess of Antioch, and her friend Irene lead their fellow believers in renouncing worldly ambition and greed and in sharing their gratitude for the strength of their belief. A messenger interrupts them with news of Valens’ decree. The Christians are about to disperse in panic, but Irene rallies them with a magnificent statement of hope, and they re-affirm their faith. Septimius comes to arrest them, but tries first to warn them of the seriousness of their predicament. Theodora speaks out in defence of Christianity, knowing she is risking her life, but Septimius has to tell her that her punishment is not death but enforced prostitution until she recants.

  • Comprehending Theodora
    Eighteenth-Century Music 2/1, 57–90 © 2005 Cambridge University Press doi:10.1017/S1478570605000254 Printed in the United Kingdom comprehending theodora ruth smith ABSTRACT Handel’s Theodora (1750, libretto Thomas Morell), an oratorio about a Christian martyr, does not have the religious-political import of his other English oratorios or the literary-critical stature of his English secular dramas and odes. A ‘sport’ among Handel’s oratorios, until recently Theodora resisted whole-hearted appreciation and elicited widely differing summaries of its meaning. This is the first extended study to be published since the chapter in Winton Dean’s Handel’s Dramatic Oratorios and Masques of 1959. Drawing on guidelines proposed in the appendix ‘Approaches to Oratorio’, the article examines the libretto’s sources, dramatization and relation to the librettist’s interests; positions the work with regard to the religious ideas of its time, identifying its religious- historical standpoint; and describes its kinship with contemporary drama, fiction and aesthetics. Connoisseurs among Handel’s audience appreciated Theodora but ‘the Town’ did not. It is suggested that both Morell and Handel were aiming for inclusiveness, comprehensiveness and breadth of appeal, and in so doing produced a work – more ambiguous and conspicuously open to interpretation than the biblical oratorios – that demands the listener’s active and discriminating engagement. I can’t conclude a letter, and forget Theodora. I have heard it three times, and venture to pronounce it, as finished, beautiful and labour’d a composition, as ever Handel made. To my knowledge this took him up a great while in composing. The Town don’t like it at all; but Mr Kellaway and several excellent musicians think as I do.
