Abstract:

The Pilgrim’s Progress (1678; 1684) has been illustrated in many different forms and media, from its early days on the book market up until today. For over the last three centuries, John Bunyan’s allegory has inspired illustrators in numerous and varied ways, the images born of the text having materialized on book pages as well as on individual sheets, but also on canvas, photographic film, glass panes, and walls. Two-dimensional creations have also led the way to three-dimensional images, exhibited or performed in a variety of places and for a whole range of publics. This chapter contends tha

Abstract:

This chapter examines some of the ways in which artists have maintained cultural space for the representation of female power through Beskalan Putri as they have adapted, taught, remembered, learned, performed, and talked about this dance. It focuses on representations of female power through Beskalan Putri because, building on the senses of history explored in the previous chapter, this dance and the femaleness performers associated with it were critical to their senses of Malangan tradition. This analysis thus further illustrates the selection of tradition and the construction of gender as m

Abstract:

This chapter focuses on the Boston Ideal Opera Company, a comic opera troupe. Its founder, Effie Hinckley Ober, was not a performer, but a businesswoman who owned one of the first musical management firms in the country. Her success in a male-dominated business provides valuable insight into how an ambitious and enterprising woman could navigate a distinctly competitive, virile world in the post-Civil War American social landscape. This chapter covers the Boston Ideals only during the Ober period (1879–1885) and illustrates techniques of management, a hitherto unknown relationship between oper

This chapter illustrates how theater helps imprisoned men explore new modes of self-actualization. Recognizing that “bad masculinity” drives much of the violence in the American prison culture, it argues that imprisoned performers can draw upon Jungian archetypes, Buddhist meditation techniques, and collaborative theater to help craft new selves free from the habitual violence that lingers within typical male roles. The chapter also examines the Theater of Empowerment, a performance-based course emphasizing personal and social development. The perspective offered in the course incorporates bot

Abstract:

Scarcely any operas from the period between Cavalli and Alessandro Scarlatti have been published in modern editions. Antonio Sartorio's Giulio Cesare in Egitto, first performed in Venice in 1676, reduces this gap. The present edition reconstructs the versions from both the Venetian premiere and the Naples revival of 1680. The opera illustrates the flexible intermingling, characteristic of this period, of dramatic recitative and the incipient da capo aria, and also serves as an interesting foil for Handel's popular Giulio Cesare, which was based on the same libretto and, possibly, even some of

With a case study of the Slovak punk band Hudba z Marsu, Chapter 6 illustrates discrepancies that became sources of creative energy in the 1990s and 2000s. It details how Hudba z Marsu incorporated popular motifs from the mid-twentieth-century space race, old Slovak folk recordings, and live folkloric singing. The chapter describes how Hudba z Marsu established connections with local Romani (Gypsy) musicians; the West European world-music industry highlights such collaborations, but this chapter argues that Hudba z Marsu and Romani performers treated their interactions as an everyday matter.

This chapter illustrates how the narratives of hip-hop dance films have historically used white female dancers to introduce mainstream white audiences to hip-hop dance forms. In Step Up 2: The Streets, however, the white female protagonist is not an outsider introduced to hip-hop dance forms, instead she is from the very streets where hip-hop originates. Yet her success as a white female hip-hop dancer weighs on her ability to perform “black” corporeality equal to or better than her black counterparts. Using choreographic analysis and critical race and gender theories, the chapter argues that

Abstract:

With the emergence of high-resolution computed tomography angiography, the number of transcatheter pulmonary arteriograms being performed has steeply declined. For this reason, many interventional departments no longer stock dedicated pulmonary artery catheters such as the pre-shaped 7 Fr Grollman catheter for a femoral vein approach. Interventionalists are therefore required to improvise with catheters that are available on hand. Transcatheter pulmonary arteriography may be indicated when dedicated pulmonary artery catheters are not available for use. In this chapter, a step-by-step approach

It illustrates a differential framework based on formulas drawn from Chapter 2, before discussing cotangent spaces and differential forms.

Abstract:

The brilliant style, described loosely by Leonard Ratner as rapid passages for virtuoso display, has been a mainstay of modern topic theory, often invoked in conjunction with the singing style to account for the basic contrastive mechanism of the classical style. This chapter explores some contextual bases for the topic, suggesting that eighteenth-century linguistic usage can offer useful nuance and proposing a topical home in the genre of the concerto. Illustrations relate to the concerto, aria, symphony, and quartet, and examine both keyboard and string virtuosity. At the heart of the brilli

Abstract:

This chapter shifts perspective from the history of architectural acoustics (as a branch of physics) to the history of architecture and practices of listening from around 1780 to 1830. In this period, operas, concerts, and spoken theater pieces, traditionally performed in the same venue, were increasingly regarded as separate genres, each related to a specific sonic reverberation time. As this chapter illustrates using acoustic data from major venues, this separation corresponded with ever-diverging concepts of acoustic design and the acoustic properties of new buildings.

The evaluation of interdisciplinary research is complicated by ambiguity about what interdisciplinarity is and what it should be. The question is topical, as evaluation plays an important role in how science is being shaped and changed today. The chapter performs a meta-analysis of the concept of interdisciplinarity in research evaluation, and gives an epistemic account of what would be involved in such evaluations. First, it discusses the various ways interdisciplinarity can add value to the disciplinary organization of academia and their respective implications for research evaluation. Secon
