A PERFORMER’S GUIDE TO POEMA DE SETE FACES, SONG CYCLE BY JEFFREY PERRY A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate Faculty of the Louisiana State University and Agricultural and Mechanical College in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Musical Arts in The School of Music by Paulo Henrique Silva B.S., Minas Gerais State University, 2002 M.S., Minas Gerais Federal University, 2008 August 2018 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS There are so many people whom I am immensely grateful to for their participation in my life, in many different ways, throughout the course of my doctoral program that it would be impossible to mention all of them. In order to solve this dilemma I will limit my acknowledgements here to a list of people who were directly linked with my doctoral program, the dissertation research, and writing process. I thank my parents, both my father Benedito Alves da Silva and my mother Edelvais Campos Silva who have always been present and participating, giving me the necessary strength to continue evolving in this great challenge. A special thanks to my advisor and Chair, Professor Dennis Jesse from whom I learned about my voice, repertoire, and interpretation & performance. Thank you for your support and advising in the process of writing this dissertation. I would also like to thank my Committee members for their great contributions to my comprehensive exams, and acceptance of the subject of this dissertation. Thank you to my advisor for the minor in vocal pedagogy, Dr. Loraine Sims. From you I gained a deeper understanding of voice science, a subject that I greatly appreciate. Thank you Professor Sandra Moon for your classes on diction that were so important to my learning how to systematize my knowledge of languages in order to help my students in a very direct way. Also, thank you for your motivation and support. An additional special thanks to the composer Dr. Jeffrey Perry for his amazing song cycle composed on the text of such a great poet. Thank you for allowing your composition to be the subject of my dissertation, it was a great pleasure interviewing you and learning more about your life and work. Thank you for always being present and for all of your support. Thanks also to the pianist Eva Shanahan who was a true collaborator crucial to the process of building the interpretation and performance of the song cycle. The rehearsals with you were always a place ii where we could experiment and have very productive discussion about the piece and the composer’s style. I also would like to say thank you to Professor Michael Borowitz who read parts of my dissertation and provided great feedback, in addition to having helped in different moments of my program - that Kammermusic 1958 will never be forgotten. Thank you to Dr. Lori Bade for being the person who made my permanence in the program practically possible. Thank you to Dean Dr. Todd Queen with whom I worked during part of my time at LSU. Your support, along with that of Dr. Bade, allowed me to complete the program. Finally, thank you Jen Scott for all your edits, patience, and motivation. For sure my dissertation would not be close to what it is without you. iii TABLE OF CONTENTS ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS ............................................................................................................ ii LIST OF FIGURES ....................................................................................................................... vi ABSTRACT ................................................................................................................................. viii INTRODUCTION .......................................................................................................................... 1 CHAPTER I.

  • That Affair Next Door
    That Affair Next Door By Anna Katharine Green THAT AFFAIR NEXT DOOR BOOK I MISS BUTTERWORTH'S WINDOW I A DISCOVERY I am not an inquisitive woman, but when, in the middle of a certain warm night in September, I heard a carriage draw up at the adjoining house and stop, I could not resist the temptation of leaving my bed and taking a peep through the curtains of my window. First: because the house was empty, or supposed to be so, the family still being, as I had every reason to believe, in Europe; and secondly: because, not being inquisitive, I often miss in my lonely and single life much that it would be both interesting and profitable for me to know. Luckily I made no such mistake this evening. I rose and looked out, and though I was far from realizing it at the time, took, by so doing, my first step in a course of inquiry which has ended—— But it is too soon to speak of the end. Rather let me tell you what I saw when I parted the curtains of my window in Gramercy Park, on the night of September 17, 1895. Not much at first glance, only a common hack drawn up at the neighboring curb-stone. The lamp which is supposed to light our part of the block is some rods away on the opposite side of the street, so that I obtained but a shadowy glimpse of a young man and woman standing below me on the pavement. I could see, however, that the woman—and not the man—was putting money into the driver's hand.

  • A DESPERATE CHARACTER, and OTHER STORIES by Ivan Turgenev Translated from the Russian by Constance Garnett
    A DESPERATE CHARACTER, AND OTHER STORIES By Ivan Turgenev Translated from the Russian By Constance Garnett 1899 TO JOSEPH CONRAD WHOSE ART IN ESSENCE OFTEN RECALLS THE ART AND ESSENCE OF TURGENEV INTRODUCTION The six tales now translated for the English reader were written by Turgenev at various dates between 1847 and 1881. Their chronological order is:— Pyetushkov, 1847 The Brigadier, 1867 A Strange Story, 1869 Punin and Baburin, 1874 Old Portraits, 1881 A Desperate Character, 1881 Pyetushkov is the work of a young man of twenty-nine, and its lively, unstrained realism is so bold, intimate, and delicate as to contradict the flattering compliment that the French have paid to one another—that Turgenev had need to dress his art by the aid of French mirrors. Although Pyetushkov shows us, by a certain open naïveté of style, that a youthful hand is at work, it is the hand of a young master, carrying out the realism of the ‘forties’—that of Gogol, Balzac, and Dickens— straightway, with finer point, to find a perfect equilibrium free from any bias or caricature. The whole strength and essence of the realistic method has been developed in Pyetushkov to its just limits. The Russians are instinctive realists, and carry the warmth of life into their pages, which warmth the French seem to lose in clarifying their impressions and crystallising them in art. Pyetushkov is not exquisite: it is irresistible. Note how the reader is transported bodily into Pyetushkov’s stuffy room, and how the major fairly boils out of the two pages he lives in! (pp.

  • Humor, Characterization, Plot: the Role of Secondary Characters in Late Eighteenth- and Nineteenth-Century Marriage Novels
    Humor, Characterization, Plot: The Role of Secondary Characters in Late Eighteenth- and Nineteenth-Century Marriage Novels Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Katrina M. Peterson, M.A. Graduate Program in English The Ohio State University 2011 Dissertation Committee: Clare Simmons, Adviser Leslie Tannenbaum Jill Galvan ABSTRACT Many late eighteenth- and nineteenth-century British novels utilize laughter as a social corrective, but this same laughter hides other messages about women‘s roles. As the genre‘s popularity widened, writers used novels to express opinions that would be eschewed in other, more established and serious genres. My dissertation argues that humor contributes to narrative meaning; as readers laugh at ―minor‖ characters, their laughter discourages specific behaviors, yet it also masks characters‘ important functions within narrative structure. Each chapter examines one type of humor—irony, parody, satire, and wit—along with a secondary female archetype: the matriarch, the old maid, the monster, and the mentor. Traditionally, the importance of laughter has been minimized, and the role of minor characters understudied. My project seeks to redress this imbalance through focusing on humor, secondary characterization, and plot. Chapter One, ―Irony and The Role of the Matriarch,‖ explores the humorous characterizations of Lady Maclaughlan and Miss Jenkyns within Susan Ferrier‘s Marriage (1818) and Elizabeth Gaskell‘s Cranford (1853). These novels share the following remarkable similarities: 1) they use characterization to unify unusually- structured novels; 2) they focus on humorous figures whose contributions to plot are masked by irony; 3) their matriarchal characters are absent for large portions of the stories; and 4) despite their absences, these figures‘ matriarchal power carries strong feminist implications.

  • THE ROLES of the VISUAL in PICTUREBOOKS: BEYOND the CONVENTIONS of CURRENT DISCOURSE DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillme
    THE ROLES OF THE VISUAL IN PICTUREBOOKS: BEYOND THE CONVENTIONS OF CURRENT DISCOURSE DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of the Ohio State University By Dominic Catalano, BS, MA, MFA ****** The Ohio State University 2005 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor Sydney Walker, Advisor ___________________________________ Professor Ken Marantz Advisor Professor Janet Hickman Art Education Graduate Program Copyright by Dominic Catalano 2005 ABSTRACT The purpose of this investigation is to examine the meaning making potential of the visual properties of the literary and artistic genre known as the picturebook. In addition, the means in which we come to understand the visual in picturebooks is challenged, particularly in regards to written text and in context within the conventions of the larger picturebook community. Through primarily a poststructural semiotic analysis of three major post-1960s picturebook works (plus an addtional work produced by this author), this study demonstrates the deeper potentials of meaning in the visual elements of illustration and design qualties beyond current discourse. Lastly, this deeper potential meaning is qualified as to its impact on the picturebook field itself, as to the making, interpretation, and criticism of picturebooks, and to the utilization in education, especially the practise of visual art education. ii Dedicated to my wife, Oksana, my calm port in life’s stormy sea iii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I would like to thank Dr. Sydney Walker, for her encouragement and support throughout the writing of this study, and Drs. Kenneth Marantz and Janet Hickman for their expertise in the field.
