    . Volume 16, Issue 1 May 2019 A paratextual analysis of Nurturing Opera Audiences: Transmedia practices, interactivity and historical interpretation in the Welsh National Opera’s promotion of the ‘Tudors Trilogy’1 Rachel Grainger and Márta Minier, University of South Wales, UK Abstract: This article examines contemporary opera marketing strategies in the context of paratextuality and transmedia storytelling using the case study of the Welsh National Opera’s (WNO) 2013 ‘Tudor trilogy’ (Anna Bolena, Maria Stuarda, Roberto Devereux by Gaetano Donizetti). The WNO’s marketing, and education & outreach campaigns for their Tudor opera performances build on the contemporary manifold ‘presence of the past in British society’ (Wright 2009: ix) and the widespread use of technologically aided branding in the arts world. We will argue that the WNO’s creative and heritagising recourse to the Tudor period as ‘usable past’ (Jordanova 2006, Smith 1997: 37) and ‘playable past’ (Kapell and Elliott 2013: 362) not only determines the main branding context for the performed opera trilogy as a cultural product but that there is also a lucrative case of one brand supporting another: the Tudor brand as a phenomenon of contemporary retro-culture bolstering the WNO brand as a not exclusively upper class but accessible and chic brand. WNO’s Tudors performance cluster is a project where significant agencies and configurations of the contemporary heritage industry converge: high opera meets Tudormania, digital marketing company Yello brick and the National Trust as

The cope is a form of vestment which has changed very In its ecclesiastical history the earliest use of the little over the centuries.

  • Subducted Carbonates, Metasomatism of Mantle Wedges, and Possible Connections to Diamond Formation: an Example from California
    American Mineralogist, Volume 90, pages xxx–xxx, 2005 Subducted carbonates, metasomatism of mantle wedges, and possible connections to diamond formation: An example from California MIHAI N. DUCEA,1,* JASON SALEEBY,2 JEAN MORRISON,3 AND VICTOR VALENCIA1 1University of Arizona, Department of Geosciences, Tucson, Arizona 85721, U.S.A. 2California Institute of Technology, Division of Geological and Planetary Sciences, Pasadena, California 91125, U.S.A. 3University of Southern California, Department of Earth Sciences, Los Angeles, California 90089, U.S.A. ABSTRACT We investigated calcite globules and veins in two spinel-garnet peridotite xenoliths from the sub- Sierra Nevada mantle. The studied xenoliths were entrained in a Miocene (11 Ma) volcanic plug. These carbonates are associated spatially with silicate glass inclusions, suggesting that they are primary inclusions—inclusions that formed at high temperature in the mantle and not at or close to the Earthʼs surface. The host peridotites represent samples of the lithospheric mantle wedge beneath the Meso- zoic California magmatic arc, as indicated by radiogenic isotopic ratios measured on clinopyroxene 87 86 separates [ Sr/ Sr(11 Ma) = 0.7058–0.7061, εNd (11 Ma) = –1.9 to –0.7]. Mineral chemistry of the peridotite major phases is typical of a mantle section that was depleted of melt. The δ18O values of olivine and orthopyroxene from the two samples are also typical of mantle rocks (δ18O = 6–6.5‰). In contrast, calcite veins have δ18O of 18–20‰ and δ13C of –14‰, arguing for a subducted sedimentary origin for these carbonates. Presumably, the carbonates were expelled from the downgoing slab and fluxed into the overlying mantle wedge as CO2- or CO2-H2O-rich fluids or melts.

The result was both lavish and intimate.” — NY Magazine • “There was the gobsmacking experience of having the performers right there at one’s elbow, inches away – Cleopatra’s gown wafting against your shoulder as she passed, Miss Havisham’s old lace perfuming the air as her doleful countenance met yours in a transfixing intimacy.

  • COCKTAIL MENU at the Turn of the Twentieth Century, America Was Booming and the Future Was Bright
    Drink in the Spirit of Butte. COCKTAIL MENU At the turn of the twentieth century, America was booming and the future was bright. The Industrial Revolution was pushing technology forward, powered by steam and ingenuity. Railroads crossed the continent, connecting people and resources as never before. A network of wires began to weave its way throughout the country, with electric signals and power humming through thousands of miles of copper. In 2010, John and Courtney McKee founded Headframe Spirits in celebration of Butte’s spirit. Standing on the confluence of four lodes of ore, in one of the city’s historic buildings, our company operates with the deepest respect for the history of Butte and the legacy of the mines and the people who worked there. Just as the miners would share an evening together after a hard day’s work, today we share holidays, celebrations and everyday moments with those closest to us. We invite you to share in the joy and appreciate being able to continue our story with you. John & Courtney McKee “The better each of us does, the better we all do together.” To learn more about our story, watch our video from the 'Under The Big Sky Series.’ bit.ly/hfutbs Menu We take our martinis very seriously at Headframe.
