By studying its dramatic landscapes and probing into their multi-sensory manifestations in line with Symbolist theory and aesthetics , I argue that Pinter’s theatre articulates an ecocritical stance and a micropolitical critique.

Copyright by Laura Kathleen Valeri 2011 The Thesis Committee for Laura Kathleen Valeri Certifies that this is the approved version of the following thesis: Rediscovering Maurice Maeterlinck and His Significance for Modern Art APPROVED BY SUPERVISING COMMITTEE: Supervisor: Linda D. Henderson Richard A. Shiff Rediscovering Maurice Maeterlinck and His Significance for Modern Art by Laura Kathleen Valeri, BA Thesis Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of The University of Texas at Austin in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts The University of Texas at Austin May 2011 Abstract Rediscovering Maurice Maeterlinck and His Significance for Modern Art Laura Kathleen Valeri, MA The University of Texas at Austin, 2011 Supervisor: Linda D. Henderson This thesis examines the impact of Maurice Maeterlinck’s ideas on modern artists. Maeterlinck's poetry, prose, and early plays explore inherently Symbolist issues, but a closer look at his works reveals a departure from the common conception of Symbolism. Most Symbolists adhered to correspondence theory, the idea that the external world within the reach of the senses consisted merely of symbols that reflected a higher, objective reality hidden from humans. Maeterlinck rarely mentioned symbols, instead claiming that quiet contemplation allowed him to gain intuitions of a subjective, truer reality. Maeterlinck’s use of ambiguity and suggestion to evoke personal intuitions appealed not only to nineteenth-century Symbolist artists like Édouard Vuillard, but also to artists in pre-World War I Paris, where a strong Symbolist current continued. Maeterlinck’s ideas also offered a parallel to the theories of Henri Bergson, embraced by the Puteaux Cubists Jean Metzinger and Albert Gleizes.

Average: 5 (1 vote) Henderson, Archibald by Rosamond Putzel, 1988 17 July 1877–6 Dec. 1963 See also: Elizabeth Brownrigg Henderson Cotten [2], sister. Photograph of Archibald Henderson, circa 1912. Image from Archive.org/University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. [3]Archibald Henderson, mathematician, teacher, literary critic, biographer, and historian, was born at Lombardy, his grandfather's home in Salisbury. He was the son of Elizabeth Brownrigg Cain and John Steele Henderson [4], Democratic representative to the United States Congress from 1885 to 1895. His ancestors included Richard Henderson [5], president of the company that sent Daniel Boone [6] to explore the western lands of Tennessee and Kentucky;J ohn Steele [7], George Washington's comptroller of the Treasury; and Archibald Henderson [8], a U.S. congressman and state legislator between 1799 and 1820. Archibald Henderson, third of that name, was a man of astonishingly varied virtuosity and undeniable genius. Towards the end of his career, he himself divided his many interests thus: "Mathematics, and the allied sciences of physics and astronomy, have absorbed . my fullest interest through some fifty years of my life. Concurrently with these scientific studies ran another deep and abiding impulse: the passion for a grasp and mastery of some of the leading thought movements of the time, especially in . literature, drama, history and philosophy." The pure science of his first love was, of course, without boundary; in the "thought movements" of the second, he was consistently both internationalist and regionalist.

Philosophy bids us to see that we are not so pretty as rose-pink, not so repulsive as dirty drab; and that, instead of everlastingly shifting those barren aspects, the sight of ourselves is wholesome, bearable, fructifying, finally a de- light.

Thompson Wesley Cabral www.cuttingball.com FROM THE ARTISTIC DIRECTOR “Everything that needs to be said has already been said. But since no one was listening, everything must be said again.” - André Gide During his lifetime, Maurice Maeterlinck said many things and people did listen. He won the Nobel Prize for literature, was compared to Shakespeare after writing his first play, and influenced theater greats like Chekhov, Strindberg, Ibsen, Beckett and Stanislavski. He was one of the most respected writers of his time. But we, for the most part, have forgotten Maeterlinck and his legacy mainly comes from his influence on the music world, notably the pieces inspired by Pelleas and Melisande composed by Debussy, Fauré, Schoenberg, and Sibelius. Maeterlinck’s dream-like symbolist theater gave way to realism and now with film and television, realism has declared total victory and the mystical world of Maeterlinck has faded into the mist. At the same time, a visit back to Maeterlinck’s world gives great rewards. There is something about his worldview that is truly unique. It is at once modern and medieval. It is the world we imagine when we come across the ruins of a castle.

Donde Deben Estar Las Catedrales: Un Lenguaje De Los Lugares Y Las Cosas
CORE Metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk Provided by Zaloamati DONDE DEBEN ESTAR LAS CATEDRALES: UN LENGUAJE DE LOS LUGARES Y LAS COSAS Tomás Bernal Alanís* Así, cuando parece que nunca va a llegar la hora de despertar de un largo sueño cargado de dolor, de pronto nos desvela un ruido de cadenas que se rompen y sonreímos todos y decimos que volvemos a ser nosotros mismos. Rudyard Kipling RESUMEN Como muchas de las grandes creaciones literarias, la novela del escritor zacatecano Severino Salazar (1947-2005) Donde deben estar las catedra- les, premiada en 1984, es un cosmos donde el territorio interior del autor descubre un mundo fascinante para describirlo y unirlo en un diálogo constante a través del lenguaje con los lugares y las cosas de ese universo literario llamado Tepetongo. Así como Gabriel García Márquez creó su Macondo o Juan Rulfo su Co- mala, Severino Salazar pudo darle vida a un pueblo zacatecano y darle una dimensión universal por medio de la palabra exquisita y mágica que pueblan las páginas de esta novela fundacional del universo salazariano. ABSTRACT As many of the great literary creations, the novel of the zacatecan writer Severino Salazar (1947-2005), Donde deben estar las catedrales, awarded in 1984, it is a cosmos where the hinterland of the author discovers a fas- cinating world to describe it und attach it in a constant dialogue through language with the places and the things of that literary universe named: Tepetongo. * Profesor-investigador del Departamento de Humanidades de la UAM-Az- capotzalco. 53 Temas_44.indb 53 21/10/15 15:05 As Gabriel García Márquez created his Macondo or Juan Rulfo his Co- mala, Severino Salazar could give life to a zacatecan town and gave him universal dimension using the magic and exquisite word that lives in the pages of this basal novel of the Salazarian universe.

George Bernard Shaw on the Polish Stage – a Brief Overview
Anna Suwalska-Kołecka Państwowa Wyższa Szkoła Zawodowa w Płocku GEORGE BERNARD Shaw ON THE POLISH stage – A BRIEF overview George Bernard Shaw na polskich scenach – krótki przegląd Abstract The main aim of this paper is to delineate the most crucial aspects of the reception of George Bernard Shaw’s plays in Poland. Shaw, believed to have set the direction of modern British drama, has been welcomed enthusiastically by Polish audiences since the beginning of the twentieth century. Warsaw was called a “Shavian city” and his popularity reached its peak in the years between the two World Wars. After WWII, Shaw’s plays were frequently staged and his political views were presented as being in line with the ruling par- ty’s policies. The fall of Communism brought about a decline in his presence on Polish stag- es, but he reappeared recently in productions that dismantle his plays in postmodern ways. Keywords: Shaw, reception, drama, the twentieth century. Streszczenie Głównym celem tego artykułu jest przedstawienie głównych aspektów recepcji twórczości George’a Bernarda Shaw w Polsce. Uważany za dramatopisarza, który wy- tyczył kierunek rozwoju współczesnego dramatu brytyjskiego, Shaw był witany entu- zjastycznie przez polską widownię od początku dwudziestego wieku. Warszawa nosiła z tego powodu przydomek miasta shawiańskiego, a jego popularność osiągnęła apogeum w okresie międzywojennym. Po wojnie sztuki Shawa były często wystawiane, a lewicowe poglądy autora utożsamiano z obowiązującą linią polityczną partii. Rok 1989 i transforma- cja ustrojowa spowodowała zmniejszenie zainteresowania jego twórczością. Jego sztuki powracają ostatnio na polskie sceny poddane postmodernistycznemu recyclingowi. Słowa kluczowe: Shaw, recepcja, dramat, wiek dwudziesty 1. Introduction George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950) is an Irish playwright rated as second only to William Shakespeare in the Anglophone tradition, and the only one who can boast both the Nobel Prize for Literature (1925) and an Academy Award for his screenplay of Pygmalion (1938).
