Introduction Characterization in dramatic works is a complicated issue. In the first instance it concerns the words chosen and what form of emphasis has been adopted by the writ- er. The sequence of events in a drama will also have much to do with how the character is allowed to develop, and in particular how each character responds to the new situ- ations that arise. In addition, the actual performance by the actors in a spoken drama can add a new dimension to the definition of the character in a spoken play. When making the transfer to an operatic scenario, the words obviously are still of the first importance, but now the way that the words are set to music (if at all) and the level at which the words can be understood by the audience are now particularly relevant.

  • DVD Press Release
    DVD press release The Devils 2-Disc Special Edition A film by Ken Russell Vanessa Redgrave, Oliver Reed Forty years ago, The Devils caused outrage amongst audiences and critics after one of the longest-running battles with the BBFC was resolved and the film finally opened in cinemas. Now recognised as a landmark in British film history, The Devils finally gets its DVD premiere on 19 March, released by the BFI in the original UK X certificate version with a wealth of new and exciting extra features and a 44-page illustrated booklet. The death of director Ken Russell, in November last year, sparked an outpouring of tributes from both the film industry and fans. This 2-disc Special Edition release of what many consider to be his greatest work is a justly fitting tribute to one of Britain’s true mavericks. The Devils is based on John Whiting’s stage play and Aldous Huxley’s novel. In 17th century France, a promiscuous and divisive local priest, Urbain Grandier (Oliver Reed), uses his powers to protect the city of Loudun from destruction by the establishment. Soon, he stands accused of the demonic possession of Sister Jeanne (Vanessa Redgrave), whose erotic obsession with him fuels the hysterical fervour that sweeps through the convent. With Ken Russell’s bold and brilliant direction, magnificent performances by Oliver Reed and Vanessa Redgrave, exquisite Derek Jarman sets and a sublimely dissonant score by Sir Peter Maxwell Davies, The Devils stands as a profound and sincere commentary on religious hysteria, political persecution and the corrupt marriage of church and state.

Performances of The Devils of Loudun now generally follow this edition. The Devils of Loudunthe first and most popular of Penderecki's operas, is emblematic of the composer's interest in historical events of traumatic nature. However, rather than a narrative of these The Devils of Loudun events, the opera underscores a more general dichotomy between central and local power, [5] and thus provides a political commentary, denouncing The Devils of Loudun iniquities committed by the totalitarian states of the midth century. The opera received mixed reviews mostly written around the same time and within a decade of the work's completion in European countries and the US. Even in the same city, there were different reactions to the work. The world premiere, which was given at the Hamburg State Opera on 20 Junereceived mixed reviews. However, the general consensus among critics was that the work was not a huge success.

  • Rethinking Jeanne and the Theme of the Supernatural
    RETHINKING JEANNE AND THE THEME OF THE SUPERNATURAL IN DIE TEUFEL VON LOUDUN by JINKYUNG LEE (Under the Direction of David Haas) ABSTRACT Krzysztof Penderecki’s (b. 1933) Die Teufel von Loudun is an adaptation of a play by John Whiting that tells a story of demonic possession and exorcism based on a historical event in Loudun. Previous scholars have neglected the supernatural element, despite the clear evidence that Penderecki changed texts and reordered the plot to make Jeanne’s supernatural experiences more convincing and more significant to the plot. Through strange shifts in vocal range and timbre, evocative orchestration, and unusual uses of the chorus, Penderecki revealed the coexistence of two realms: one natural and one supernatural. At times, he blurred the border between the realms through ambiguous musical effects involving oddly mismatched timbres. Elsewhere he made structural links between scenes in order to reveal previously hidden supernatural elements. Penderecki’s multiple evocations of the supernatural through music add an important dimension to the opera and make the character Jeanne central to understanding it.

  • A Cultural History of Witchcraft John Callow Siv
    130 Embracing the Darkness: A Cultural History of Witchcraft John Callow Siv Jansson, Birkbeck College, University of London London: IB Tauris, 2018. ISBN: 978-1-84511-469-5, 288pp, £20. This is a wide-ranging, well-researched and highly persuasive study of witches and witchcraft in Western culture. Illustrated with a number of photographs, John Callow challenges stereotypes, assumptions and literal ‘old wives’ tales’ to offer a re-reading of the treatment of, and attitudes to, witches. He does this through a range of examples, from the brief discussion of Mother Redcap that opens the first chapter, through the notorious ‘Devils of Loudun’, to the intriguing figure of artist Robert Lenkiewicz, who created the extraordinary mural on Plymouth’s Barbican and kept the bones of the witch Ursula Kemp in his collection of occult artefacts. Rather than taking a purely chronological approach, Callow organises his material around a range of interesting ‘cases’ or key figures. Each of the ten chapters tells a new tale, or a new version of a well-known tale. Chapter 2, ‘The Witch House of Bamberg’, describes the 17th century witch-hunt in the Bavarian town of Bamberg and illustrates with chilling detail the spread of witch-paranoia and the ease with which anyone could be accused and found guilty. More than 600 so-called witches were executed during a period of about four years, a succession of futile and violent deaths that was only brought to an end by the invasion of the Swedish army in 1631. It is a good starting-point for the book, being a story of the harmless and/or innocent victims of fear, exploitation of power and what seems to have been a kind of neurosis.

Poor workmanship in the making of bills could lead to grave consequences. Style and clarity of content are both important, for one follows from the other. Lack of a precise style could lead to disorganization, which in turn could lead to ambiguity. Ambiguity in the law leads to confusion in its interpretation and application. This part of the book could very well compose a separate volume, and should be of general interest, not only to the average citizen, political scientists, members of the bench and bar, but also to the legislators themselves. For that forms part of their function, and it is only in keeping with thcir position that they should have a clear grasp of the principles and practices of bill-drafting.
