Abstract:
For 13 years, from 1851 to 1864, Ibsen worked full time at the Norwegian theatres in Bergen and Christiania (Oslo) as a stage director and theatre manager. Ibsen’s period in the theatre and the repertory he staged have seldom enjoyed much attention in schol­arly research. The reason for this has been that the repertory Ibsen staged has been seen as vulgar and lowbrow, and Ibsen’s period in the theatre has almost unani­mously been seen as a waste of time. The general understanding has been that Ibsen’s development as an artist had been much faster if he had been working with a highbrow repertory of serious drama.Contrary to this established opinion I will contribute to the discussion of popular theatre as highbrow or lowbrow by presenting the production A Caprice (En Kaprice) by Erik Bøgh, staged by Henrik Ibsen at the Norwegian Theatre in Christiania (Oslo). It premi­ered 7 September 1859 and then ran for another thirty-five performances during the 1859-60 season. The total number of attendances was more than 30.000. In relation to the population of the town of 42.000, it was about 2/3 or 67%. This is the by far largest box-office success in Norwegian theatre history. No wonder that Ibsen scholars gener­ally have understood A Caprice as the ultimate example of the unholy trade Ibsen was forced into as a theatre manager. According to Michael Meyer Ibsen for the only time in his life “rebuked for truckling to the box-office” (Meyer 1971, 166). The contemporary criticism in Morgenbladet (Nr. 278, 9.10.1859) claimed that Ibsen was declining the Norwe­gian Theatre in Christiania into a kind of amusement ground for the lower classes.I will, however, present A Caprice as the summit of Ibsen’s theatrical career and under­line that both this and other dance productions staged by Ibsen in this period, were not at all amusement for the lower classes but on the contrary important expressions of his artistic creativity and development – and actually a highbrow performance presented for an upper class audience.

Abstract:
I apply Pierre Bourdieu’s conception of relationally-defined social spaces of capitals and classes that delimit highbrow and lowbrow cultural forms to Canadian society. I use categorical principal components analysis techniques and a nationally representative survey dataset from 1998 containing measures of economic capital, cultural capital and a wide range of cultural practices to construct a visual representation of Canadian social space which is directly inspired by the social space for 1960s France crafted by Bourdieu in Distinction: A Social Critique of the Judgement of Taste (Bourdieu 1984). After identifying nascent class groupings and potentially highbrow and lowbrow cultural practices in my depiction of social space, I speculate on precisely how such cultural practices might factor into class dynamics in Canada, in particular examining the role played by “cultural omnivorism” in identifying and reinforcing class distinctions.

Abstract:
<p> Using data from the 1982, 1985, 1992, and 1997 Survey of Public Participation in the Arts (SPPA), this thesis tests the effects of class, age, gender and race on the breadth of musical preferences that respondents report to liking. Specifically, the omnivore/univore framework developed by Peterson (1992) is examined. </p><p> It is hypothesized that age and social class are positively related to musical omnivorousness (liking a wide variety of music). That is, older people and people higher in social economic standing will be more omnivorousness in musical preferences. The underlying theory here is that in today's society, being omnivorous is a form of cultural capital. Cultural exclusivity is no longer valued as it may have been in the past and is more often a sign of ignorance rather than status. Hence, the hypothesis is that people today will use a wide knowledge of musical forms to help them network and "get ahead." This should be more important for people as they age because the need to network as a way of moving higher in the social economic hierarchy should be more important.</p><p> Additionally, it is hypothesized that women and whites will be more omnivorousness because they may feel less alienated in general from mainstream society, especially at younger ages. Hence, blacks and men will gravitate towards fewer genres of musical as a symbolic rejection of the values of mainstream society. This should also be more salient when people are younger. </p><p> Overall, the findings presented support the contention the omnivorousness is replacing exclusiveness as a sign of status. Indeed, the findings show that class is positively related to omnivorousness, age is positively related to omnivorousness, being female is positively related to omnivorousness, and that whites are more omnivorous than blacks. </p><p> Perhaps most interesting, however, is that the relationship between age and omnivorousness was determined to be a curvilinear relationship. No other analysts have reported this. Moreover, the findings present evidence that age may indeed be a more important determinant of musical omnivorousness than social class. Hence, it is concluded that no longer should musical preferences be examined simply as varying by social class but also as changing across the life cycle. </p><br>Master of Science
