The scholarship has jus- tifiably resorted to restricted explorations of specific texts or poets, or heavily criticized region-specific descriptions with several caveats. The many challenges this multifaceted po- etry presents has also obscured one of its most central features—–the medieval voice. With the little evidence we have often being ambiguous or contradictory, how are we to understand the role of the medieval voice in the German corpus as a whole? This project seeks to shed light on this forgotten aspect by taking advantage of computational methods to demonstrate relative formal and thematic relationships based on sound and voice. In doing so, it presents several new prosodic analytical methods. The first chapter of this project underlines the importance of sound and voice to medieval performance and composition. It additionally justifies the syllable as the foundation ofthe novel formal methods presented in the following chapters. Chapter two presents a new syllabification algorithm that combines two linguistic principles: the Sonority Sequencing Principle and the Legality Principle. This algorithm is then customized and computationally implemented to perform accurately on medieval German across dialects and editing practices. Chapter three employs this syllabification algorithm to characterize different phonological soundscapes in reference to theme and voice using a modest corpus of only medieval German lyric poetry. While chapter three intends to quantify the vocal affect of a soundscape, chapter four aims to account for the sequencing of these soundscapes within the larger text and corpus. Chapter three therefore lays the foundation for a structural model of medieval German form. Finally, chapter five reduces the corpus once again to a very small subsetof medieval German Vierheber (epic poetry with four stresses per line). It presents a supervised machine learning model to predict scansion for these texts according to the theory proposed 2 by Andreas Heusler, and draws conclusions from how different poets took advantage of the freedom this structure allowed. In each chapter, I present the aggregate statistics to confirm and supplement our knowl- edge of the medieval German corpus as a whole. Yet more importantly, I return to individ- ual texts in order to demonstrate how these newly discovered formal soundscapes manifest and function within a smaller narrative. This combination of “distant reading” and “close reading” supports my overarching argument that medieval German form and content were demonstrably and quantifiably highly intertwined. In many cases markedly different formal, phonologically-influenced structures were implemented to trigger connections to related texts and formats. This project thus creates a new understanding of intertextual relations in me- dieval German literature. i For my family ii Contents Contents ii List of Figures iv List of Tables vi 1 Voice and Rhythm

  • The Rite of Spring: Rhythmic Rebirths As Delivered by Messiaen and Boulez
    Te Rite of Spring: Rhythmic Rebirths as Delivered by Messiaen and Boulez* Wai Ling Cheong A century has passed since Te Rite of Spring (Le sacre du printemps) provoked a riot at the Téâtre des Champs-Élysées on 29 May 1913 and harvested a captivating success from the Parisian audience soon after wards.1 Some of the best minds of our times, Messiaen and Boulez foremost among them, attempted to unravel the ‘secrets’ of Te Rite of Spring, with rhythm prioritised as one of their main concerns. Even be- fore the end of World War II, during the difcult years of the Occupa- tion, Messiaen had already shared his pioneering study of Te Rite of Spring with his star students from the Paris Conservatoire at a private analysis class.2 Messiaen’s insightful analysis of Te Rite of Spring is often praised in a vacuum. For a very long time the details of Messiaen’s anal- ysis were known rather exclusively only to his students. In 1953 Boulez, then in his late twenties, published his exegesis of Te Rite of Spring – Stravinsky Remains (Strawinsky demeure) – which soon became one of his best known analyses and has since then left an indelible imprint on the reception history of the masterpiece.3 Te lack of any formal documen- * Tis project (CUHK14613417) is supported by the Hong Kong Research Grants Council. 1 According to Jonathan Cross, Sergey Diaghilev had assumed a critical role in engi- neering the riotous premiere.

  • Project-Isorhythm 2019
    Project 4: Isorhythmic Trio or Quartet after Messiaen What’s due when: 1. Online discussion comments posted by Tuesday October 1 at noon. 2. Preliminary analysis worksheet completed by Wednesday, October 2. 3. Rough draft completed by Wednesday, October 9. We will read them through (on piano, MIDI playback, and/or in ensemble) and discuss them in class. 4. Score and parts completed in neat copy (by hand or computer) by noon on Monday, October 14, to me by email (Sibelius or PDF; scans of neatly handwritten music are fine). Model: Messiaen “Liturgie de cristal” from Quartet for the End of Time. Instrumentation: 3-4 instruments. One and only one must be a “chord” instrument (piano, marimba, vibraphone, or guitar). The other 2-3 can be any available single-line instrument: voice, flute(s), clarinet, t. sax, bass. Duration: circa 2-5 minutes, circa 4-16 pages of score Formal procedure: Your piece will be based on one or more isorhythmic structures. Each isorhythm should employ a talea (rhythmic cycle) and color (pitch cycle) of different lengths. At least one of the isoryhthmic patterns should run through the entire movement. You may choose what elements are governed by isoryhthmic cycles: it could be certain instruments (like the piano and cello in the Messiaen), or it could be certain dimensions (for example, a harmonic progression, or the notes of a certain register) that are not necessarily localized to one particular instrument. Structure: Think about the relationship between isorhythmically determined and free writing in your piece. Remember that the isorhythmic elements are not “beyond your control” just because you follow a strict procedure, as you are determining the content of the talea and color.

  • Jordanes and the Invention of Roman-Gothic History Dissertation
    Empire of Hope and Tragedy: Jordanes and the Invention of Roman-Gothic History Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Brian Swain Graduate Program in History The Ohio State University 2014 Dissertation Committee: Timothy Gregory, Co-advisor Anthony Kaldellis Kristina Sessa, Co-advisor Copyright by Brian Swain 2014 Abstract This dissertation explores the intersection of political and ethnic conflict during the emperor Justinian’s wars of reconquest through the figure and texts of Jordanes, the earliest barbarian voice to survive antiquity. Jordanes was ethnically Gothic - and yet he also claimed a Roman identity. Writing from Constantinople in 551, he penned two Latin histories on the Gothic and Roman pasts respectively. Crucially, Jordanes wrote while Goths and Romans clashed in the imperial war to reclaim the Italian homeland that had been under Gothic rule since 493. That a Roman Goth wrote about Goths while Rome was at war with Goths is significant and has no analogue in the ancient record. I argue that it was precisely this conflict which prompted Jordanes’ historical inquiry. Jordanes, though, has long been considered a mere copyist, and seldom treated as an historian with ideas of his own. And the few scholars who have treated Jordanes as an original author have dampened the significance of his Gothicness by arguing that barbarian ethnicities were evanescent and subsumed by the gravity of a Roman political identity. They hold that Jordanes was simply a Roman who can tell us only about Roman things, and supported the Roman emperor in his war against the Goths.

    WW 1/2004 Gerhardt, Kriemhilds Ende 7 Kriemhilds Ende in der ,NibeIungenlied'-Handschrift b Von Christoph Gerhardt I. In der ehemaligen Hundeshagenschen Berliner ,Nibelungenlied'-Handschrift (b) aus Ostschwaben (Augsburg), um 1436 bis 1442,' finden sich zwei Interpolationen. Die eine von ihnen hat in jüngster Zeit einige Aufmerksamkeit auf sich gezogen im Zusam­ menhang mit der vor kurzem erstmals vollständig veröffentlichten Darmstädter ,Nibe- lungenlied'-Handschrift (n).2 Den Inhalt der 23 Strophen analysiert Göhler ausführlich und zeigt, dass die kurz vor dem endgültigen Burgundenuntergang spielende Szene z.T. bereits Gesagtes variiert, neue Akzente setzt, aber auch ganz neue erzählerische Ele­ mente bringt, also eine eigenständige Erzählsequenz darstellt. Um die andere Erweite­ rung ist es vergleichsweise in letzter Zeit ziemlich still geblieben; sie betrifft Kriemhilds Ende.3 Zunächst sei diese ,Nibelungenlied'-Interpolation besprochen, danach soll sie neben weitere vergleichbare Episoden gestellt werden; abschließend will ich eine These über die Herkunft des Zusatzes aufstellen und aus ihr einige allgemeine Bemerkungen ablei­ ten. 1 S.

  • Goldemar in Der Dietrich-Sage
    DIPL. THEOL. DIRK SONDERMANN König Goldemar in der Dietrichsage (unveröffentlicht, verfasst ca.1999) Der bekannte Märchen- und Sagensammler Ludwig Bechstein (1801-1860) nahm sich der Sagen um den Zwergenkönig Goldemar an. Nachdem „wißbegierige Hausgenossen“ dem Zwergenkönig bzw. „Elben“i (Bechstein) Goldemar Asche und Erbsen streuten, auf denen er ausglitt und fiel, verließ er Burg Hardenstein in (Witten-) Herbede an der Ruhr.ii Weiter heißt es wörtlich: „Da kam der Elbe Goldemar nimmer wieder auf des Hardenbergs Schlösser. Er wandte sich anderswohin und entführte eine Königstochter, die hieß Hertlin. Die Mutter dieser Königstochter starb vor Leid über der Tochter Verlust, letztere aber ward durch den sieghaften Helden Dietrich von Berniii, den alte Lieder feiern, befreit und von geehelicht. Manche sagen, daß dieses Bern, wovon der Held Dietrich den Namen geführt, nicht das Bern in der Schweiz, auch nicht das welsche Bern, Verona, gewesen, sondern das rechte Dietrichs- Bern sei Bonniv gewesen, der älteste Theil dieser Stadt habe auch Verona oder Bern geheißen, und da in dieses rheinische Land und Gefilde so viele Thaten Dietrichs von Bern fallen, von denen in alten Heldenbüchern viel zu lesen, so dürfe wohl etwas Wahres an der Sache und Sage sein. Der Gezwerg Goldemar aber habe, nachdem ihm Dietrich die Beute abgedrungen, die Riesen zu Hülfe gerufen und Berge und Wälder ringsum schrecklich verwüstet. Die Stadt Elberfeld soll ihren Namen von nichts anderm tragen als von den Elbenv, auf deren Felde sie begründet ward.“vi In dieser Sage spricht Bechstein ein weitgehend unbekanntes Thema an: Goldemar und Dietrich von Bern, der Heros der germanischen Heldensage! Goldemar als Romanfigur im Reinfried von Braunschweig Goldemar als Figur der mittelhochdeutschen Heldenepik begegnete den Geistes- wissenschaftlern des 19.
