Some Thoughts on the Polish-Lithuanian Graffiti
62 Contents list available at Vilnius University Press Knygotyra ISSN 0204–2061 eISSN 2345-0053 2019, vol. 73, pp. 62–78 DOI: https://doi.org/10.15388/Knygotyra.2019.73.34 ACTS OF VANDALISM OR MEMORY COMMUNICATION? SOME THOUGHTS ON THE POLISH-LITHUANIAN GRAFFITI WRITING TRADITION Kšištof Tolkačevski Vilnius University, Faculty of Communication, Department of Book Science and Publishing 3 Universiteto St., LT-0513, Vilnius, Lithuania Email: [email protected] Summary. As a form of literacy, graffiti has existed throughout the ages. Many researches on epigraphy show that many examples of graffiti were left in- tact from the period of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. However, the purpose of their appearance was merely disputed in the scientific community. The main aim of this research is to ascertain the motives of the habits of inscribing graffiti among Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealths citizens. This study is a qualitative research that seeks an in-depth understanding of the phenomena of writing graffiti. Basic material for the research was gathered from ego-documents that are focused on the personal lives and experiences of the writers. The research is based on a detailed contextual analysis of several cases (case study method). This article examines several cases and gives some light on how and why graffiti were made. However, for more ample and accurate results, more extensive research must be done. Received: 5/10/2019. Accepted: 10/11/2019 Copyright © 2019 Kšištof Tolkačevski.

Behind the Scenes of the Fiery Angel: Prokofiev's Character
CORE Metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk Provided by ASU Digital Repository Behind the Scenes of The Fiery Angel: Prokofiev's Character Reflected in the Opera by Vanja Nikolovski A Research Paper Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Musical Arts Approved March 2018 by the Graduate Supervisory Committee: Brian DeMaris, Chair Jason Caslor James DeMars Dale Dreyfoos ARIZONA STATE UNIVERSITY May 2018 ABSTRACT It wasn’t long after the Chicago Opera Company postponed staging The Love for Three Oranges in December of 1919 that Prokofiev decided to create The Fiery Angel. In November of the same year he was reading Valery Bryusov’s novel, “The Fiery Angel.” At the same time he was establishing a closer relationship with his future wife, Lina Codina. For various reasons the composition of The Fiery Angel endured over many years. In April of 1920 at the Metropolitan Opera, none of his three operas - The Gambler, The Love for Three Oranges, and The Fiery Angel - were accepted for staging. He received no additional support from his colleagues Sergi Diaghilev, Igor Stravinsky, Vladimir Mayakovsky, and Pierre Souvchinsky, who did not care for the subject of Bryusov’s plot. Despite his unsuccessful attempts to have the work premiered, he continued working and moved from the U.S. to Europe, where he continued to compose, finishing the first edition of The Fiery Angel. He married Lina Codina in 1923. Several years later, while posing for portrait artist Anna Ostroumova-Lebedeva, the composer learned about the mysteries of a love triangle between Bryusov, Andrey Bely and Nina Petrovskaya. -

In architecture, they were Frank Lloyd Wright, Antonio Gaudí, Frank Owen Gary, Le Corbusier, Hugo Hering, Alvar Aalto, Hans Sharun, Walter Burley Griffin, and Marion Mahony Griffin. Each of them was given a lot of attention in the media resources and their creativity was researched in different fields of knowledge. However, Rudolf Steiner’s work remains controversial to this day. Although many of the architects mentioned above enthusiastically commented on Steiner’s architectural works, there was always ambiguity in the perception of this mystic architect. Such a careful attitude to the work of the architect is due primarily to his worldview, his extraordinary approach to art and architecture in particular, because it is in architecture that Steiner was able to implement the basic tenets of anthroposophy, which he founded. -

A. Veksler called it "one of the most artistically vibrant and complete works of Russian literature, if not the most vibrant work of A. Bely."1 Viktor Shklovsky, the well known Formalist critic, wrote: "I don't think that he himself [Bely] knows what in the world an 'Epopee' is."2 Critics have also variedwidely in their evaluations of the stylistic innovations of the work. -

The Historical Novel in Europe, 1650-1950 Richard Maxwell Frontmatter More Information
Cambridge University Press 978-0-521-51967-0 - The Historical Novel in Europe, 1650-1950 Richard Maxwell Frontmatter More information THE HISTORICAL NOVEL IN EUROPE, A much older genre than is often thought, the historical novel has played a vital role in the development of the novel overall. It began in seventeenth-century France as a distinctive way of combining his- torical chronologies with fictive narratives. In Romantic Scotland, historical fiction underwent a further transfomation, inspired by both antiquarian scholarship and crisis-oriented journalism. The first comprehensive study of its subject for many years, The Historical Novel in Europe highlights both the French invention and Scottish re-invention of historical fiction, showing how these two events pre- pared the genre’s broad popularity during the nineteenth and twen- tieth centuries. In Europe, as well as in the Americas, the historical novel became as much a way of reading and a set of expectations as a memorable collection of books. The main authors discussed include Madame de Lafayette, the abbé Prévost, Walter Scott, Alexandre Dumas, Victor Hugo, Gustave Flaubert, and Mark Twain. richard maxwell teaches in the Comparative Literature depart- ment at Yale University. His previous publications include The Mysteries of Paris and London (1992) and The Cambridge Companion to Fiction in the Romantic Period (edited with Katie Trumpener, 2008). © Cambridge University Press www.cambridge.org Cambridge University Press 978-0-521-51967-0 - The Historical Novel in Europe, 1650-1950 -
Architectural Theory in Eastern Europe During the Enlightenment
Architectural theory in Eastern Europe during the Enlightenment Review of: Ignacy Potocki, Remarks on Architecture. The Vitruvian Tradition in Enlightenment Poland, Carolyn C. Guile ed. and transl., University Park, PA: The Pennsylvania State University Press, 2015, 155 p. Basile Baudez Early modern Polish architectural thought is largely absent from standard surveys of Western art and architecture. If Richard Butterwick-Pawlikowski has recently studied the history of the Polish-Lithuanian commonwealth1 and if Andrezj Rottermund’s work on neo-classicism has been partly translated2, no general study of eighteenth-century East European or Polish architecture exists in English apart from Stefan Muthesius’ brief account in Art, architecture and Design in Poland, 966- 1990 (Königstein im Taunus: K. R. Langewiesche Nachfolger H. Köster Verlagsbuchhandlung, 1994). Due to a language barrier, limited or restricted access to primary and secondary sources, the situation of East-European studies began to change only in the 1990s and with time, historiography has shifted its concern from the strict research of a East-West borderland as it was defined by Oscar Halecki in 1980 in Borderlands of western civilization: a history of East Central Europe, to the study of multidirectional cultural transfers3. The historic notion of connected centres played an important role in understanding these phenomena, a more useful tool to think the age of Enlightenment than considering the cultural geography of Central Europe only in terms of centres and peripheries4. -
