Trinity College Digital Repository, Hartford, CT. https://digitalrepository.trincoll.edu/trinitypapers/64 Mahoney 1 Daffy Duck and Allegorical Violets: Inane Voices Asking Philosophical Questions in the Poetry of Louise Glück and John Ashbery Poetry has always been used to pose questions, ranging from the mundane to the extraordinary, from highly specific personal enquiries to broad existential uncertainties. Where did we come from? Why are we alive, what does being alive mean? Existential questions have attracted the curiosity of intellectuals for millennia. Furthermore, in a global culture inherently tied to religion, these questions have often been posed or dedicated to a divine figure. Although the appearance of these god figures has changed and developed over time and across cultures, their symbolism and importance have remained constant. Drawing from traditions started in early religious texts and classical works of prose and poetry, many writers have appealed to a higher power in their work. From Virgil and Sophocles to Whitman and Dickenson, from Homer and Dante to Plath and Collins, poets have used their lines, stanzas and syllables to grapple with existence and perhaps even reach out to God.

  • July 26, 2013 Bugs Bunny and the NSO Come to Wolf Trap
    July 26, 2013 Bugs Bunny and the NSO come to Wolf Trap By Roger Catlin For a generation of Americans, the earliest love of classical music came not through shared family symphony experiences or early childhood music appreciation classes, but through mayhem-laced TV cartoons, often involving a bunny in drag. Walt Disney may have taken the high road to classical music interpretation through some early Silly Symphony cartoons and “Fantasia” (which in its first run was a flop). But it was Warner Bros. and particularly the animators behind Bugs Bunny who may have been the most successful in drumming key classical passages into the heads of impressionable audiences when the studio’s theatrical cartoons of the 1940s and ’50s were incessantly replayed on TV in the ’60s. Warner Bros. - Still image from the 1950's Merrie Melodies short, “What's Opera, Doc?” Even today, the most serious gray-haired music lover, sitting in the world’s most august concert halls, may be listening to the timeless refrains of Rossini or Wagner only to have the phrase “Kill the Wabbit!” come to mind. Conductor George Daugherty has embraced this meld of classical knowledge and pop-culture conditioning and celebrates it in his “Bugs Bunny at the Symphony.” Its first tour, in 1990, was such a success that it spawned, as most successes in Hollywood do, a sequel. “Bugs Bunny at the Symphony II” comes to Wolf Trap on Thursday and Friday, with Daugherty conducting the National Symphony Orchestra. In its honor, we pause to hail the greatest uses of classical music by Warner Bros.
