Mark Kingwell
Opening Gambits: Essays on Art and Philosophy

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: What is the role of art in modern society? To entertain us? To teach us? Both? And what of philosophy? What relevance does it have to how we think and live? In Opening Gambits, Mark Kingwell argues that art and philosophy are forms of play, working at the margins of meaning and sense. Written in Kingwell’s typical witty and eloquent style, the book begins with general assessments of the art world and the relationship between art and architecture. Including lively critical engagements with artists like Edward Burtynsky, David Bierk, James Lahey, and Blue Republic, these pieces tease out the philosophical issues embedded in the aesthetic experience of art. In part two, Kingwell reverses the polarity, investigating philosophy as a kind of art form that is constantly questioning its own possibility. The two parts of the book are simultaneously separated and joined by a collection of images that feature the works discussed in part one. [detailed...]

Description: This book addresses the related problems of regulating and pricing access in network industries. Interconnection between network suppliers raises questions of how to sustain competition and realize economic efficiency.

The large fixed and sunk costs of constructing networks and the difficulty in acquiring the expertise and competencies embodied in the managerial and organizational structure of incumbents in the network industry make it difficult to enter this marketplace. As a result, new entrants, realizing that they may not be able to provide customers with service comparable to that of the incumbents, often look tonegotiate an interconnection agreement. This book is divided into two parts. Part I assesses regulation and pricing access in network industries from an analytical and policy perspective.

Opening Spaces

2003 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionThe art of designing both unites and divides landscape architecture and architecture. Despite having a long tradition, landscape architecture has lacked a concise presentation of the fundamental principles underlying its design and planning concepts. This much sought-after book has evolved out of more than twenty years of teaching experience. The authors distinguish between the variable factors such as climate, growth of vegetation etc., and the more abstract element of design. They describe the ideal design components and demonstrate the extent to which natural features such as surfaces, spaces, paths, borders, hard and soft materials shape the designs. This book reveals how concepts such as order and chaos, way and goal, intention and reaction form the basis for landscape design, just as they do in architecture. Hans Loidl has been Professor for Landscape Architecture in Berlin since 1982 and has headed his own atelier since 1984. Stefan Bernard works as a landscape… [detailed...]

Description: Opera Coaching is the first practical guide for pianists, singers, and opera producers to this important--and often neglected--career. The opera coach is a teacher who helps singers not only meet the physical and vocal demands of a score, but--like the dramatic coach--shapes their entire performance. The opera coach must have a wide knowledge, from a full understanding of human physiognomy and the human voice, to the many languages used in Western vocal music, to the entire expanse of the opera repertoire, from its roots in 17th century sung drama through today`s most modern compositions. Opera Coaching covers all of these topics and more, making it the ideal resource for anyone interested in this fascinating career. [detailed...]

Michael Ewans
Opera From the Greek

2007 y.
Publisher: Ashgate Publishing
Description: Michael Ewans explores how classical Greek tragedy and epic poetry have been appropriated in opera, through eight selected case studies. These range from Monteverdi`s `Il ritorno d`Ulisse in patria`, drawn from Homer`s `Odyssey`, to Mark-Antony Turnage`s `Greek`, based on Sophocles` `Oedipus the King`. Choices have been based on an understanding that the relationship between each of the operas and their Greek source texts raise significant issues, involving an examination of the process by which the librettist creates a new text for the opera, and the crucial insights into the nature of the drama that are bestowed by the composer`s musical setting. Ewans examines the issues through a comparative analysis of significant divergences of plot, character and dramatic strategy between source text, libretto and opera. [detailed...]

Martha Feldman
Opera and Sovereignty: Transforming Myths in Eighteenth-Century Italy

2007 y.
Publisher: University of Chicago Press
Description: Performed throughout Europe during the 1700s, Italian heroic opera, or opera seria, was the century`s most significant musical art form, profoundly engaging such figures as Handel, Haydn, and Mozart. `Opera and Sovereignty: Transforming Myths in Eighteenth-Century Italy` is the first book to address this genre as cultural history, arguing that eighteenth-century opera seria must be understood in light of the period`s social and political upheavals. Taking an anthropological approach to European music that`s as bold as it is unusual, Martha Feldman traces Italian opera`s shift from a mythical assertion of sovereignty, with its festive forms and rituals, to a dramatic vehicle that increasingly questioned absolute ideals. She situates these transformations against the backdrop of eighteenth-century Italian culture to show how opera seria both reflected and affected the struggles of rulers to maintain sovereignty in the face of a growing public sphere. In so doing, Feldman explains… [detailed...]

Description: Book Description The History of Italian Opera marks the first time a team of scholars has worked together to investigate the entire Italian operatic tradition, rather than limiting its focus to major composers and their masterworks. Including both musicologists and historians of other arts, the contributors approach opera not only as a distinctive musical genre but also as a form of extravagant theater and a complex social phenomenon. This sixth volume in the series centers on the sociological and critical aspects of opera in Italy, considering the art in the context of an Italian literary and cultural canon rarely revealed in English and American studies. In its six chapters, contributors survey critics` changing attitudes toward operaover several centuries, trace the evolution of formal conventions among librettists, explore the historical relationships between opera and Italian literature, and examine opera`s place in Italian popular and national culture.
