  • Narrative Representations of Gender and Genre Through Lyric, Music, Image, and Staging in Carrie Underwood’S Blown Away Tour
    COUNTRY CULTURE AND CROSSOVER: Narrative Representations of Gender and Genre Through Lyric, Music, Image, and Staging in Carrie Underwood’s Blown Away Tour Krisandra Ivings A Thesis Presented In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirement for the Degree Master of Arts in Music with Specialization in Women’s Studies University of Ottawa © Krisandra Ivings, Ottawa, Canada, 2016 Abstract This thesis examines the complex and multi-dimensional narratives presented in the work of mainstream female country artist Carrie Underwood, and how her blending of musical genres (pop, rock, and country) affects the narratives pertaining to gender and sexuality that are told through her musical texts. I interrogate the relationships between and among the domains of music, lyrics, images, and staging in Underwood’s live performances (Blown Away Tour: Live DVD) and related music videos in order to identify how these gendered narratives relate to genre, and more specifically, where these performances and videos adhere to, expand on, or break from country music tropes and traditions. Adopting an interlocking theoretical approach grounded in genre theory, gender theory, narrative theory in the context of popular music, and happiness theory, I examine how, as a female artist in the country music industry, Underwood uses genre-blending to construct complex gendered narratives in her musical texts. Ultimately, I find that in her Blown Away Tour: Live DVD, Underwood uses diverse narrative strategies, sometimes drawing on country tropes, to engage techniques and stylistic influences of several pop and rock styles, and in doing so explores the gender norms of those genres. ii Acknowledgements A great number of people have supported this thesis behind the scenes, whether financially, academically, or emotionally.

  • Major Themes and Imagery in Sarogini Naidu's Poetry
    MAJOR THEMES AND IMAGERY IN SAROGINI NAIDU'S POETRY ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS SUBMITTED FOR THE AWARD OF THE DEGREE OF JBottor of $I)iIos(opIip IN ENGLISH BY SYED AMIN ASHRAF DEPARTMENT OF ENGLISH ALIGARH MUSLIM UNIVERSITY ALIGARH (INDIA) 1993 ABSTRACT Sarojini Naidu, 'The Nightingle of India', has occupied a unique position in Indian English poetry. Her poetic talent flourished in Western surroundings but she Was never an imitator. Endowed with keen poetic sensibility and extra-ordinary perception, she felt the phenomenon of human life around her, sir Aurbindo remarks, "She springs from the very soil of India, her spirit, although it employs the English Language in its vehicle, has not other tie with the west", Sarojini Naidu was blessed with 'bird like quality* but her songs are not only lyrical but also evocative. She contemplated life in its varied condi­ tions and situations. She observed folk life and the fascinating natural phenomenon. She thought of man's longing for love, and his everlasting ignorance about - 2 - the mystery of life and death. These aspects were viewed in the Eastern light but their expression has an ever­ lasting beauty of its ovm, Glasgow Harold observedx- "The pictures are of the East, it is true, but there is something fundamentally human in them that seems to prove that best songs know nothing of East or West." Sarojini Naidu in her songs tried to express her emotional tensions, but the imagery which she employed was striking and thus paved a new path in Indian English tradition of poetry. She skilfully adopted specific imagery suited to her theme, purpose, mood and situation, Sarojini Naidu*s compass as a poetess is very wide and no specific theme can be traced out in her poems.

  • Er Hat Geschmack’: Shifting Connotations of Taste in the Discourse Surrounding W
    ‘ER HAT GESCHMACK’: SHIFTING CONNOTATIONS OF TASTE IN THE DISCOURSE SURROUNDING W. A. MOZART A Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Katherine H. Walker May 2014 © 2014 Katherine H. Walker ‘ER HAT GESCHMACK’: SHIFTING CONNOTATIONS OF TASTE IN THE DISCOURSE SURROUNDING W. A. MOZART Katherine H. Walker Cornell University 2014 On 14 February 1785 Leopold Mozart wrote to his daughter in Vienna: “On Saturday evening Herr Joseph Haydn and the two Barons Tindi Came to see us and the new quartets were performed. … Haydn said to me: ‘Before God and as an honest man, I tell you that your son is the greatest Composer known to me either in person or by name. He has taste and, beyond that, the most profound knowledge of Composition’.” Despite many interpretations of Haydn’s remark, no one has heretofore considered that it supports multiple, concurrent readings. There were three primary agents involved in the transmission of Haydn’s statement—Leopold Mozart, the addressee; Wolfgang Mozart, the subject; and Haydn, the speaker—and each adhered to a distinct set of ideas associated with the concept of taste. Viewed from the perspeCtives of its three respective agents, this single remark may be seen to ripple aCross many deCades of the eighteenth century, highlighting the ideologies and tensions that characterized the ConCept of musical taste in this period.
