Full textAbstract:
Several available free software audio solutions were analyzed, and Jackdmp—a C++ reimplementation of the renowned JACK Audio Connection Kit—was selected as the most appropriate solution for a real-time audio architecture on DROPS. The JACK sound architecture provides the lowest processing latency possible on a desktop computer for a given set of sound card parameters. It reduces the latency jitter caused by software to zero and synchronizes streams at sample accuracy. A real-time admission scheme for JACK clients is proposed. The execution time of different typical JACK clients was analyzed with measurements to validate the assumptions the proposal is based on, but also to gain further knowledge about their timing behavior. The measurements showed that the condition set by Paul Davis—the time to process a client must be a linear function of the buffer size—holds for all tested clients. Jackdmp was ported to DROPS. The developed design of the port and its implementation is documented here. Measurements showed that—although the real-time performance of the Linux kernel is continuously being improved in the mainline and on special external branches—DROPS can provide a signaling latency that is two times lower on average than the values that can be achieved on the same machine running with a low latency patched Linux kernel. Thus, it can be stated that DROPS is well-suited for real-time audio processing and that the pursued path to use it as the foundation of a truly real-time capable audio workstation should be followedWenn man heute digitale Audiotechnik zum Aufnehmen oder Abmischen von Musik oder anderen Audiodaten verwenden möchte, steht man vor der Wahl, entweder auf eine sehr spezialisierte Hardwarelösung zurückzugreifen oder aber sich eines gewöhnlichen Desktopsystems mit entsprechender Audiosoftware zu bedienen. Der Vorteil eines Desktopsystems ist neben seinem deutlich niedrigeren Preis vor allem die Flexibilität. Bezüglich seines Echtzeitverhaltens bietet ein Computer mit einem Standard-Desktop-Betriebssystem aber bei weitem nicht dieselbe Verlässlichkeit einer spezialisierten Hardwarelösung oder analoger Technik. Die Architektur von DROPS --- mit dem echtzeitfähigen Fiasco- Mikrokern auf der einen Seite sowie der Unterstützung von Legacy-Anwendungen durch L4Linux auf der anderen Seite --- birgt die Hoffnung, die Vorteile von den beiden eben beschriebenen Welten auf einem System mit DROPS kombinieren zu können. Die Motivation meiner Arbeit war es, für dieses langfristige Ziel einen ersten Grundstein zu legen. Dazu war es meine Aufgabe, verschiedene Open-Source- Lösungen hinsichtlich ihrer Eignung als Echtzeit-Audioarchitektur für DROPS zu analysieren und die am besten geeignete auf L4Env zu portieren. Meine Wahl fiel dabei auf das in der Linux-Audio-Szene wohlbekannte Jack Audio Connection Kit (JACK). Desweiteren konnte ich in der Arbeit untersuchen, wie sich die JACK Audioarchitektur in ein globales Echtzeit-Scheduling --- z.B. eines von DROPS --- einbetten ließe, und schlage eine generische Methode dafür vor

Full textAbstract:
The present work argues for the invaluable contribution of boy actors to the evolution of Tudor drama. Since most young scholars later went up to university or the'Inns of Court, I have also considered the course of drama in those institutions. This drama in education was given its prime impetus by visiting professional troupes, whose itineraries included schools, universities and the Inns. The education in drama they set before their audiences helped shape the schools drama, which was able to develop and expand in a way denied the professionals by the consequences of the Reformation. Not till Leicester's men established themselves at the Theater were the professionals enabled once again to strive towards their eventual pre-eminence. The argument in those'sections dealing with the colleges of Winchester, Eton and Westminster is supported by original archival material hitherto unavailable in print. The Introduction states the situation at the moment of the foundation of the Theater and of the first Blackfriars. That significant moment marked the beginnings of the decline in the fortunes of the forces of drama in education. The prehistory is rooted in the broad educational changes of the late fifteenth and early sixteenth centuries (Chapter I) and in the seminal effect upon the drama of the sermons of the mendicant preachers of the later Middle Ages (Chapter I). These twin influences forged the drama of pre-Reformation England, defined the roles of professionals and boys alike (Chapter II).

Full textAbstract:
L'auteur est décédé le 15 novembre 1991 avant d'avoir sa thèse de doctorat. Mais elle a laissé suffisamment de matériaux écrits et de références bibliographiques pour que l'on puisse la mener à soutenance. Ceci a été fait par son frère. Docteur en médecine qui avait l'habitude de collaborer avec elle comme conseiller scientifique. La thèse commence avec le serment d'Hippocrate considéré comme un reflet de l'idéologie des médecins et chirurgiens de l'époque élisabéthaine. Il est suivi d'une description du corps des chirurgiens et de l'enseignement qu'ils reçoivent du collège royal de chirurgie, avec l'émergence des nouvelles idées. L'œuvre de Paracelse et l'intrusion de l'occultisme rosicrucien dans la médecine sont analysés, leurs influences précisées sur la pratique anglaise et plus spécifiquement sur des médecins comme Thomas Moffret et Robert Fludo, tous ces praticiens occupant une place proéminente. En arrière scène, le rêve d'alchimie et la quête d'immortalité par des moyens "scientifiques" sont développés et analysés comme des procédures préscientifiques qui ont donné naissance à l'éthique et aux sciences médicales modernes. La conclusion insiste sur le particularisme élisabéthain de la renaissance qui inclut une évolution particulière de la société anglaise et un courant d'idées largement répandues venant d’Europe et principalement de Padoue. La bibliographie compte plus de 325 références incluant quatre communications de l'auteur à la société d'études sur la Renaissance sur des sujets aussi variés que : arum potabile, medicina catholica, Francis Anthony, un charlatan William BulleinThe author died november 15th 1991 before she had the time to put an end to her doctoral thesis. But she left enough written material and bibliographical references to allow us to carry it to completion. This has been done by her brother, doctor in medicine who used to work with he as her scientific counselor. This thesis begins with the Hippocratic Oath, which is considered as a reflection of the ideology of Elizabethans physicians and surgeons. It is followed by a description of the surgeon's corpus and the surgeon's tuition by the royal college of surgery. As new ideas emerged Paracelsus’s work and Rosicrucian occultism are both analyzed so far as medicine is concerned and their influence upon English praxis pointed out even more accurately at physicians such as Thomas Moffet and Robert Fludo and a surgeon as john Woodall. All these practitioners playing a prominent part on the medical scene of the Elizabethan era. As a background, the alchemists’ dream and the quest for immortality, through so called "scientific" means are developed and analyzed as pre-scientific procedures which gave birth to our modern medical sciences and ethics. The conclusion emphasizes the specific characters of Elizabethan renaissance, which included a peculiar evolution of the English society and a widespread tend of opinions and ideas coming four Europe and monthly fourn padoue. The bibliography is rich of more than 325 references including four papers that the author gave to the society for the study of renaissance concerning such various subjects as aurum potabile, medicina catholica, Francis Anthony a quach, William Bullein

Nelson, Katie M. "Thomas Whythorne and Tudor musicians." Thesis, University of Warwick, 2010. http://wrap.warwick.ac.uk/36853/.
Full textAbstract:
The autobiography of Tudor musician Thomas Whythorne (1528-1596) is rich with self-exploration, social commentary and intimate storytelling. His story begins at childhood, then progresses chronologically as he gains an education, becomes a music master, and rubs shoulders with some of the most prominent people in England. This rich historical source has been strangely neglected, particularly by social historians, since its discovery in 1955. No one in any discipline has so far attempted an overall assessment of Whythorne the man, his work, and his significance. This is my aim. Working outwards from a close examination of his unique manuscript (Bodleian MS. Misc.c.330), this study hopes to shed new light on the music profession in early modern England. Whythorne adds considerable clarity of focus to the professionalization of music in the sixteenth century, as seen through the eyes of one of its advocates. Chapter 1 reviews Whythorne’s own life story and compares it with available external evidence. Chapter 2 proceeds to mine the manuscript itself for further evidence of Whythorne’s motives and methodology, offering a number of new hypotheses regarding the dating, content, and structure of the manuscript. Chapters 3 and 4 explore the nature of the Tudor musical profession, proposing and exploring a ‘spherical’ model of the music profession (in place of a hierarchical model). These chapters examine the various ‘spheres’ or types of musicians in turn, comparing Whythorne’s descriptions to external evidence. Chapter 5 then examines private music tutors in greater depth, as this group have previously remained very shadowy figures. Finally, Chapter 6 examines the world of early music printing in England, and Whythorne’s pioneering place in it. It also explores the nature and function of his self-fashioning, arguing that Whythorne constructed an identity well outside the realm of the generic. By viewing early modern society through Whythorne’s lens and comparing it to contemporary sources, we can shed new light on early modern musicians in England, and on the society in which they lived.

Singh, Amritesh. "Tudor women writers fashioning masculinity." Thesis, University of York, 2011. http://etheses.whiterose.ac.uk/1522/.
Full textAbstract:
This thesis contributes to the growing interest in early modern masculinity and its literary representations by introducing texts by women writers into dialogue with their male-authored counterparts. It argues for a more nuanced approach that recognises that the concepts of masculinity and femininity can only be fully understood when studied in relation with each other. The first chapter explores how, notwithstanding the wisdom of conduct books and marriage guides, the demands of the state may not always be commensurate with those of the domestic realm and shows that this conflict necessitates a rethinking of existing definitions of masculinity by focusing on selected writings of the Tudor sisters Mary and Elizabeth and Jane Fitzalan’s *Tragedie of Iphigeneia*. The second chapter identifies how Elizabeth’s unique discursive strategies were designed to elicit support from her male subjects and subdue the belligerence that simmered under polemic like John Stubbs’ *Gaping Gulf*. In her letters to Anjou, the chapter examines how Elizabeth manoeuvred around her position as a beloved and as a monarch to fashion a husband who would not only be sympathetic but also subordinate to her political authority. This chapter also shows how the fabulous world of John Lyly’s *Galatea* consummates the Queen’s desire for the ideal male subject. The final chapter investigates the construction of martial manhood. It juxtaposes Mary Sidney’s *The Tragedy of Antonie* with William Shakespeare’s *Antony and Cleopatra* to determine how the figure of Cleopatra, common to both plays, challenges and revises the martial code of masculinity as embodied by Antony. By examining the authorial position appropriated by Cleopatra in the plays and its impact on the narrative, this chapter also extends this thesis’ interest in the extent to which female characters within texts compete for diegetic control with male protagonists.

Esta dissertação trata do item lexical tudo, na função de quantificador (Q), sendo norteada pelos seguintes objetivos: (a) analisar a multifuncionalidadede de tudo na língua falada de Florianópolis; e (b) investigar em que medida o item lexical tudo pode conter traços de definitude. A orientação teórica adotada é basicamente a do funcionalismo lingüístico givoniano, considerando-se ainda a noção de processos de referenciação e de instabilidade e estabilidade constitutivos da linguagem humana, além da noção semântica de especificidade. A análise é realizada a partir da relação estabelecida entre tudo e a entidade à qual está ligado no contexto discursivo. A multifuncionalidade desse item é mapeada hierarquicamente em termos de função > subfunções, identificadas a partir da relação fórica (direta e indireta) instaurada entre tudo e a entidade por ele quantificada. As subfunções identificadas para o quantificador são: (Q) super genérico, (Q) dêitico; (Q) imediato; (Q) anafórico; (Q) catafórico; e (Q) anafórico e catafórico - podendo agregar ainda certos tipos como: ampliador, resumitivo, enfatizador de atributos. A definitude, tratada como uma propriedade semântico-discursiva escalar, diz respeito às características da entidade quantificada por tudo, cujos traços constituintes envolvem as noções de referencialidade, determinação/delimitação e especificidade do que foi referido - além do papel do falante face à entidade quantificada. Propomos uma escala de definitude com seis graus, mostrando que o grau mais alto aproxima-se do conceito tradicional de pronome indefinido, com poucos dados de tudo nessa categoria; a maioria das ocorrências analisadas situa-se nos graus intermediários, evidenciando-se que tudo apresenta fortes traços de definitude.

Full textAbstract:
In the sixteenth century, Martin Luther s Protestant Reformation generated multiple reform movements and political transformations in Europe. Within this general period of reform, political and cultural changes from the Tudor era (1485-1603) created a separate English Reformation. The English Reformation evolved from the different agendas of the early Tudor monarchs and occurred in two distinct waves: an initial, more moderate Henrician Reformation and a later, more complete Edwardian Reformation. Henry VIII and Edward VI s attempts to redefine monarchy through a new State and Church identity drove English church reform during this period, giving these religious shifts distinct political roots. Cultural artifacts were prominent indicators of these differing political goals, and Henry VIII and Edward VI adjusted and removed images and texts according to their propaganda methods. These royal manipulations of culture are well-documented, but historians have overlooked important components in the communication process. Lay responses to imagery changes ranging from compliance to rebellion demonstrate the complex relationship of images, monarchy, and reform. Examining images function as propaganda with questions of intent, reception, and comprehension in royal communication is imperative for assessing the impact of royal messages on Tudor culture. Analyzing Tudor art as a form of political communication that disseminated idealized political representation reveals a strong visual discourse between the King and the English people. Images held key powers within royal discourse to create and disseminate propaganda of a kingship.M.A.

Full textAbstract:
Elizabeth Tudor succeeded to England's throne during a time when misogynist societal ideology questioned the authority of a female monarch. Religious opposition to a woman ruler was based on biblical precedent, which reflected the general attitude that women were inferior to men. Elizabeth's dilemma was reconciling her femininity with her sovereignty, most notably concerning her justification for power, the issue of marriage and succession, and the conflict over the execution of Mary, Queen of Scots. The speeches Elizabeth presented to Parliament illuminate her successful solidification of her authority from a feminine gendered position. She established and reinforced her status through figurative language that presented her femininity as favorable to ruling England, ultimately transcending her womanhood to become an incarnation of the state. Elizabeth's speeches reflect her brilliance at fashioning herself through divine and reciprocal imagery, which subsequently redefined English society, elevating her to the head of a male-dominated hierarchy. By establishing her position as second to God, Elizabeth relegated all men to a status beneath hers. Elizabeth's solution to the perceived liability of her gender was to recreate herself through divine imagery that appropriated God's authority as her own. She reinforced her power through a reciprocal relationship with Parliament, evoking the imagery of motherhood to redefine the monarchy as an exchange rather than an absolute rule.M.A.

Full textAbstract:
This study aims to analyze the application of twentieth century sociologist George Mead's role theory to Henry VIII and Mary I, of Britain's Tudor Dynasty, regarding their treatment of their families during the early to mid-sixteenth century. Contemporary role theory can offer a useful lens to study sixteenth century royal family functionality through an analysis of Henry VIII and Mary I's lives as monarchs of England. Role theory can illuminate the role conflict that led to a separation between Henry and Mary as people and as sovereigns. Their roles, derived from traditional authority, set them apart as people and led them to behave in a way that would not have been true to their characters if they were not monarchs. The roles will therefore be given particular attention pertaining to family issues within a sixteenth century social, religious and political context. The findings of this study include an explanation of conflict with identity as well as a conflict with roles using transformation as the catalyst in the case of both of these monarchs. This study includes a qualitative content analysis, while also employing methods from the humanities to create a unique blend of methodology from both the social sciences and the field of history. This blend of methodology aids in creating a model to ensure further understanding of conflict analysis from a historical perspective.

Full textAbstract:
This dissertation studies the representation of calendars and the idea of custom in Tudor English literature. Social historians have demonstrated that the early modern English calendar was anything but stable, and that the nature of days and their observances was often hotly disputed. This is a study of how authors of literature reflected and produced calendar consciousness in the face of changing systems of time reckoning. I focus upon texts which explore alternative models of social time: Thomas More's Utopia, Edmund Spenser's Shepheardes Calender and Faerie Queene, William Shakespeare's Julius Caesar, and a cluster of texts published in 1603. These works share the recognition that calendars are at least as much the product of custom as they are of nature, and are therefore potentially open to social adaptation and political appropriation. The idea of custom as "second nature" is both an object of study in the dissertation and provides its general methodology and theoretical orientation. In early modern usage, "custom" could refer to much of what we might call both "ideology" and "culture." In its most general sense, however, custom simply referred to individual habit and social praxis, and was one means by which particular activities could be politically legitimated. My goal is to demonstrate what many early modern authors recognized: that a calendar is both a product of custom and a framework within which social behaviour is produced. When confronted with other systems of temporal organization, authors were encouraged to reflect upon their own, and to consider the possibilities in alternative social orders.

Full textAbstract:
This thesis analyses the means by which items of Italian material culture came into the possession of the Tudor monarchs. The different modes of acquisition provide the structure for an investigation into Anglo-Italian relations during the sixteenth century. Although the items that came to England took many forms a synthesising approach is made possible by the fact that the 'biographies' of the objects which have been selected all share a common element - they reached England and were owned by the Tudor monarchs as a result of direct contact with Italian individuals. As a result, disparate items such as glass, armour, books, textiles and horses can be discussed as part of a broader whole in which elements of one culture travelled to another. This is not a discussion of the developing dominance of Italian culture over Western Europe during the sixteenth century, for, although the adjective 'Italian' carried clear connotations in late sixteenth-century England it appears to have been rarely used in relation to material culture. Instead it is a study of the appreciation of technical skill and the attempts that were made to appropriate it, which in turn provides a point of access to the life histories of the Italians who came to England in the sixteenth century and the way in which their interaction with the highest levels of the court played a role in shaping the idea of Italy and the Italian in England.

Daunt, Catherine. "Portrait sets in Tudor and Jacobean England." Thesis, University of Sussex, 2015. http://sro.sussex.ac.uk/id/eprint/54260/.
Full textAbstract:
This thesis examines the taste for sets of easel portraits in England during the reigns of Elizabeth I and James VI and I. Looking primarily at sets of historical figures, particularly English kings and queens, the thesis aims to assess the extent of the fashion and identify the audience for such sets. The material qualities of the paintings are discussed and the methods of production, as well as the function and meaning of specific sets. The first chapter examines the evidence for the earliest portrait sets of this type in England and suggests that innovations in art and architecture at Court had a significant influence on the development of the genre. The earliest evidence for portrait sets in aristocratic collections is examined and specific examples of early known sets are discussed. The second and third chapters look at the intellectual context in which the fashion for portrait sets emerged. It is suggested that humanist ideas about the display of portraiture and related artistic trends on the continent contributed to the emerging demand for this type of painting in England. It is argued that the widespread interest in history, genealogy and antiquarianism at this time led to a demand for images of historical figures. In addition, it is suggested that portrait sets were often used to communicate messages of legitimacy and authority by implying that a family or institution had an illustrious and lengthy lineage. The final two chapters discuss known portrait sets in detail and include case studies of specific sets. The fourth chapter focuses on sets of English kings and queens and the fifth chapter on sets of illustrious figures drawn from various categories of famous men and women. The latter includes case studies of a set formerly at Weston, Warwickshire and a set at Knole, Kent.

Full textAbstract:
Les homelies sont trente-trois sermons du type homiletique, publiees en 1547 et 1563 et lues en chaire chaque dimanche par ordre royal. Leur but : etablir fortement la reforme sous la forme de l'anglicanisme, faire cesser l'emprise de rome sur l'angleterre et prevenir les revoltes religieuses. Les ecoliers repetaient ces homelies a leurs maitres, shakespeare, enfant, les a apprises et ses oeuvres en contiennent maints echos. Leurs auteurs principaux sont : cranmer, jewel, latimer, parker, grindal. Ce travail situe les homelies dans leur contexte historique, religieux et dans la tradition homiletique anglaise. Les diverses editions sont etudiees suivies de l'analyse des textes eux-memes : homelies liturgiques, chretiennes, pastorales; les eglises. Puis les homelies sont montrees comme le reflet d'une situation sociale donnee : droit de propriete, de peche, travail, chomage, aumone, rapports avec l'ordre politique, respect de la hierarchie sociale meme de la parure. Enfin les homelies sont vues comme le miroir de la foi anglicane : importance de l'ecriture, la foi salvatrice sans les oeuvres. Les cinq rites sacramentaires et les deux sacrements : bapteme et eucharistie, sont etudies a travers les homelies concernees ainsi que les liens avec le livre de la priere commune. Un releve scripturaire et de breves biographies des auteurs forment la conclusionThe homilies are thirty-three sermons of homiletic type published in 1547 and 1563 to be read from the pulpit every sunday according to royal injunction. Their aim : establish the reformation under its particular type of anglicanism, put an end to roman domination and prevent religious strife. Children were required to repeat the homilies to their teachers; shakespeare learnt them as a child and there are many echoes in his work. Their main authors are : cranmer, latimer, jewel, parker, grindal. This thesis sets the homilies in their historical context and in the english homiletic tradition. The various editions are studied as well as the homilies themselves : liturgical, christian life and pastoral, and also the places of worship. They are then shown as describing a given social situation such as right of ownership, of fishing, idleness, almsdeeds. Then comes a study of the links between the homilies and the social and political order to be respected even in your apparel. Lastly the homelies reflect the anglican faith : knowledge of the bible, salvation through faith only without works. The two sacraments : baptism and eucharist and the five sacramentary rites are studied in the homilies and their link with the book of common prayer stressed.

Cox, Patricia J. "Reformation responses in Tudor Cheshire c.1500-1577." Thesis, University of Warwick, 2013. http://wrap.warwick.ac.uk/59641/.
Full textAbstract:
The focus of this dissertation is the county of Cheshire during the momentous religious changes of the sixteenth century. It aims to show that it is unrealistic to expect a monolithic reaction to such change: as in any county a combination of factors came together resulting in a variety of responses. It also seeks to discredit a number of myths which continue to proliferate about local people and events of this time. The prominence given by both contemporaries and subsequent scholars to Catholic survivalism in the neighbouring county of Lancashire has tended to overshadow the position in Cheshire; indeed some studies have conflated the two. A central aim of this dissertation has been to demonstrate that the two counties responded differently, and to seek to explain why this might have been. A chronological approach has been adopted because it was felt that this would afford a cohesive structure. Within each time period certain continuities and recurring themes will become apparent, however. This is, in part, a function of the sources used, since many of these records derive from institutions or practices which continued fundamentally unaffected throughout the period. This was markedly also a time of radical change, and the abolition of some existing institutions and the introduction of new procedures produced new types of records which demonstrate the local impact of some of those changes. The focus of much Reformation scholarship has now moved away from regional studies towards a more thematic approach, representing one strand of post revisionism. One outcome of the local study in this dissertation has been to demonstrate how new regional studies can contribute to a variety of debates by offering fresh insights and conclusions from a re-consideration of familiar evidence and an examination of evidence which may not be widely known.

Full textAbstract:
Because it signified the violent transition from the Plantagenet to Tudor dynasty, the death of King Richard III at the Battle of Bosworth’s Field was a monumental event. After five centuries, his skeleton was rediscovered by an archaeological team at a site, formerly the location of the Greyfriars Priory Church. The presentation uses the forensic evidence to examine the extent to which the perceived image of Richard III is the result of Tudor propaganda.

Full textAbstract:
This thesis addresses a significant, though largely unexplored, part of the Marian Counter-Reformation. Queen Mary and her ministers expected the University of Oxford's contribution to the success of their plans for the English Church to be decisive. From her letter to the University in August 1553, only weeks after her accession, in which she announced her intention of laying the foundations of her ecclesiastical policy in Oxford, the academy underwent a transformation. After decades of trauma which had left the University poor, empty and (literally, in some parts) crumbling, Mary's reign gave the University a purpose, something which had been difficult to discern since the Dissolution of the Monasteries had deprived it of a large proportion of its students and lecturers. Mary and, after November 1554, Reginald Cardinal Pole undertook an extensive programme designed to reform and restore the University, a programme which was willingly and tirelessly taken up by those sympathetic to it in the University. This had its theological, ecclesiastical, liturgical and architectural elements, each of which will be considered in this thesis. Its central claim is not just that the existing picture of Mary Tudor's Church is incomplete without the inclusion within it of the restoration of Catholicism in Oxford, but that it is in Oxford, and perhaps only there, that all the different elements of her religious policy can be seen for what they are: a consistent whole, conceived and executed with one purpose: the reintegration of the English Church into the universal Catholic body.

Full textAbstract:
This thesis deals with a sub-department within the early-Tudor royal household, a group of clerics and layclerks collectively known as the Chapel Royal. It fills a major lacuna in the recent historiography of the Tudor domus which, while drawing attention to the central importance of the establishment in the political and administrative life of the nation, has largely disregarded the members of its chapel. This study shows that far from being a marginal institution, the chapel played a prominent role in early-Tudor representations of kingship and in the cultural life of the court and nation at large, and its senior officers were active participants in national government, politics and diplomacy. Beginning with a description of the royal household and a survey of the documentary sources used to reconstruct the operations of the chapel, it proceeds with an analysis of the chapel's membership and institutional structure. The important role of the chapel in the ceremonial, religious and cultural life of the court is then described. This is followed by a chapter on the household of the Lady Margaret Beaufort, matriarch of the Tudor dynasty, who, owing to the ceremonial needs arising from her wealth, political prominence and constitutional position, maintained an independent chapel of 'royal' dimensions and musical standard.A fresh interpretation of the chapel's constitutional development, based on new evidence concerning the interdependence of its ceremonial role and the royal itinerary is presented in the final chapters. The chapel's main centres of activity at Westminster and Greenwich are identified, and the private and professional activities of its members, particularly its musicians, within these societies are explored in detail. Biographical data discovered using this new historiographical framework reveals a hitherto unsuspected degree of assimilation of its personnel to the religious, economic and cultural life of these surrounding communities.

Fay, Isla Helen Hood. "Health and disease in Medieval and Tudor Norwich." Thesis, University of East Anglia, 2007. http://ethos.bl.uk/OrderDetails.do?uin=uk.bl.ethos.443187.
Full textAbstract:
This thesis comprises a thematic survey of health and disease in an English community: the city of Norwich c. 1200-c. 1600. It brings a new approach to an understudied subject, because it gives equal weight to evidence from archaeology, history, palaeopathology and art history. A survey of published work on health and the urban environment to date highlights some anachronistic approaches that are frequently encountered when interpreting the medical paradigms of the past. We then consider how Norwich's ruling elite used the symbolism of the healthy human body in its civic ceremonies and demonstrated an active interest in protecting the health of the residents. Ancient Galenic and Hippocratic ideas formed the basis of contemporary theories concerning the potential risks to health inherent in the urban environment. As the impact of these ideas has not been adequately explored before in a civic context, a summary is presented of the assumptions about human physiology current during our period. An explanation is given of how these ideas reached Norwich's citizens. The heart of the thesis analyses a famous prospect of the city by William Cuningham, published in 1559. This map or plan is placed into the context of the Classical Greek ideas described above. The medical significance of this illustration is fully investigated for the first time The remaining portion of the thesis looks in detail at how Norwich's residents implemented schemes that, they believed, would safeguard their health. Balancing the picture from the perspective of ill-health, a chapter is dedicated to the examination of those diseases observable in archaeologically excavated human remains. It is argued that funerary arrangements reflected attitudes towards individuals suffering from crippling or disfiguring diseases, as well as to the concepts described in previous chapters. Finally, the evidence from Norwich (and in particular the activities of an elite group of Norwich aldermen) is placed in the wider context of civic humanist literature.

Full textAbstract:
Le but de cette étude sur John Bale (1495-1563) est de rendre compte à la fois de l'importance du rôle de ce réformateur, un des propagandistes les plus marquants de la Réforme anglaise, au sein du mouvement protestataire, et de la spécificité de sa contribution au développement de la littérature anglaise de la période. Bale consacra sa vie à dénoncer les erreurs des catholiques romains dans ses divers ouvrages de polémique religieuse donnant à la Réforme un répertoire d'arguments d'une très grande richesse et le soutien d'une recherche historique que peu d'auteurs à l'époque auraient pu mener à bien. L'originalité de cet auteur prolifique réside principalement dans la diversité des modes de transmission de son message à travers l'adaptation à des fins partisanes des pièces littéraires existantes, sans s'attacher à un genre particulier. S'il utilise ses vastes connaissances bibliques et historiques comme armes dans la polémique autant que pour étayer son argumentation dans la controverse, son prosélytisme le pousse à utiliser un vocabulaire grossier bien qu'adapté au contexte politico-religieux de l'époque, ce qui lui vaut le surnom de Bale "le bilieux". Après avoir mis en relief la façon dont le vécu personnel de Bale et les circonstances extérieures ont pu influer sur sa littérature, la thèse présente une analyse des principes auxquels Bale adhérait et des schémas historiques qu'il avait adoptés mettant l'accent sur le concept de suprématie royale et la tradition apocalyptique. Enfin, une dernière partie se propose d'étudier les différents genres et procédés littéraires -outils de rhétorique, de controverse et de polémique- que Bale sut mettre au service de la Réforme

A dissertação que aqui se apresenta consta da análise de comentários feitos por Ana Cristina Cesar às bordas de seu exemplar do livro Reunião, de Carlos Drummond de Andrade. A intenção foi trabalhar as marginálias a partir de uma lógica do suplemento derridiano em um esforço de determinação que pretendeu voltar sempre para a poesia, especialmente de Ana C.. O procedimento se justifica como método escolhido para possibilitar uma abertura das escrituras pelo atrito e em direção oposta àquilo que se identificaria como influência do cânone. Alguns pressupostos teóricos foram estabelecidos para que se pudesse minimamente (e no que concerne a uma dissertação de mestrado) "dar conta" do trabalho, sem pretensões de esvaziar o objeto; esta pesquisa continua (e permanecerá) aberta a novas significações.
La dissertation ici présentée comprend une analyse des commentaires faits par Ana Cristina Cesar à propos de son exemplaire du livre Reunião, de Carlos Drummond de Andrade. La démarche a été de travailler les aspects marginaux à partir d'une logique du supplément derridien dans un effort de détermination qui a toujours prétendu revenir à la poésie, surtout celle de Ana C. La procédure se justifie comme méthode choisie car celle-là permet une ouverture des écritures par la confrontation et en direction opposée à ce qui pourrait être identifié comme une influence du canon. Certains concepts théoriques préalables ont été établis pour rendre minimalement possible (en ce qui concerne une dissertation de master) "une procédure complète"; sans prétention de vider l'objet ; cette recherche continue (et perdurera) ouverte à des nouvelles significations.

Full textAbstract:
Having as a parameter some concepts related to cinematography narratives and the inclusion of digital technology in film production, the text analizes four Denmark movies made under the rules of the Movement Dogma95: The Celebration, by Thomas Vinterberg (1998); The Idiots, by Lars Von Trier (1998); Mifune, by Soren Kragh-Jacobsen (1999); The King is Alive, by Kristian Levring (2000). We try to situate this movement as being a representation of the comtemporary cinema in relation to its singularity. Its difference is for being considered the last vanguard in the cinematography at the end of the twentieth century with a narrative built under rebelious tendencies called Classic Cinema, Hollywood Cinema, and Entertaining Cinema like Vertovs Kinos Filmes, The Italian Neo-Realism and The French Nouvelle Vague. These tendencies have strong influences over the movement. Another fact analized here are the themes chosen for each film, which raise questions related to a comtermporary subjectivity.Tendo como parâmetro alguns conceitos relativos à narrativa cinematográfica e à inserção da tecnologia digital na produção de filmes, o texto analisa os quatro primeiros filmes dinamarqueses realizados sobre os preceitos do movimento Dogma95: Festa de Família, de Thomas Vinterberg (1998); Os idiotas, de Lars von Trier (1998); Mifune, de Soren Kragh-Jacobsen (1999); e O Rei está vivo, de Kristian Levring (2000). Procura-se enquadrar esse movimento como representante do cinema contemporâneo diante de suas singularidades. O diferencial desse movimento foi o de ser considerado a última vanguarda a aparecer na área cinematográfica no final do século XX, com a construção narrativa pautada em tendências rebeldes ao chamado cinema clássico, cinema hollywoodiano e cinema de entretenimento, como os Kinos filmes de Vertov, o Neo-realismo italiano e a Nouvelle Vague francesa -tendências que exercem forte influência no movimento. Outro fator analisado são as temáticas escolhidas para cada filme, que manifestam questões relativas à subjetividade contemporânea.

Matthews, Julia. "Characterization and structure in the development of Tudor comedy." Thesis, University of Warwick, 1991. http://wrap.warwick.ac.uk/57031/.
Full textAbstract:
The role of characterization in dramatic structure is assessed by theoretical criteria. Characters who perform actions necessary for the completion of the narrative sequence are said to be "bound" to the narrative; those without such obligations are "free". Characters who maintain a single, constant meaning during the course of a play are said to be "static"; characters who change or develop into new roles are "dynamic". Horatian decorum demanded that comic characters be static, and the characters of Plautine and Terentian tradition were almost always bound to narrative intrigue. However, evaluations of six Tudor comedies show an increasing use of non-classical characterization within the comic form. In the early comedies lohan lohan and Roister Doister all characters are bound and static, yet the impetus to enlarge the role of characterization is evident. The characters of lohan lohan are expanded from their French source, and Roister Doister includes extraneous episodes in which Udall displays his braggart hero. Free characters abound in Misogonus; as well the play brings dynamic characterization into the scope of comedy with the conversion of its prodigal son. Free characters offer new possibilities of non-narrative plotting. In comedies of the 1580s favourite traditional characters appear as diversions outside the action, and thematic arrangements of characters inform the increasingly complex plots. Lyly stresses the symbolic potential of characters in Endimion, whereas Greene uses dynamic characterization to heighten the illusion of independent figures in Friar Bacon and Friar Bungay. Love's Labour's Lost exposes the limitations of comic artifice by pulling the characters between convention and individualization. By the end of the sixteenth century free and dynamic characters had become common, and characterization had established a sizable claim on the design of English comedy. These developments set the English form apart from its neoclassical counterparts.
