No full textA Profile of Anna Bon, 18th Century Venetian Composer
Full text linkDuring the 1700\u27s, music was flourishing in Italy, and Italy was regarded as the country of true musicians. Italian musicians and composers were frequently imported by courts in other countries. One Venetian composer of the time, who was composing for royalty, was Anna Bon. There is very little known about her life beyond that which appears on the title pages of her published works. A modest amount of information on Bon appears in Eitner\u27s Quellenlexikon (1898). Abromeit examines this scarce amount of information and prepares an analysis and realization of two of Bon\u27s sonatas for flute and continuo, Opus 1, nos 1 & 5. This honors thesis was presented as a lecture recital
Zwischen Aufklärung und barocker Prachtentfaltung : Anna Bon di Venezia und ihre Familie von „Operisten“
Full text linkWer sich mit einer Musikerin wie Anna Bon di Venezia befassen will, muss mit dem "vielbeschworenen Mut zum Fragment agieren". So schreibt die Musikwissenschaftlerin Michaela Krucsay im Vorwort zu ihrer Dissertation, die der vorliegenden Publikation zu Grunde liegt. Nicht nur diesen Mut zum Fragment hat die engagierte Forscherin überzeugend bewiesen: Aus den in der Tat nur sehr spärlich vorliegenden Informationen zu Leben und Werk von Anna Bon di Venezia, zu ihrer Familie und ihrem Umfeld, ist es Michaela Krucsay hervorragend gelungen, eine erste faszinierende Biographie dieser Musikerin des 18. Jahrhunderts zu konzipieren

Richardson, Barbauld, and the construction of an early modern fan club
No full textMPhilMuch has been written about the life and long works of the eighteenth century epistolary novelist, Samuel Richardson, but the prospect of his position as the first celebrity novelist – responsible for courting his own fame as well as initiating his own fan club – has largely been ignored. The body of manuscripts housed at the National Art Library in the Victoria and Albert Museum in London provides the modern scholar with evidence of the skeletal beginnings of an early fan club. This thesis aims to show how these manuscripts were turned into a saleable commodity by the publisher and entrepreneur Richard Phillips, while under the guiding hand of another, slightly later, literary celebrity, Anna Laetitia Barbauld. In order to restore Richardson’s reputation amongst a new nineteenth century audience, Barbauld was required to construct her own idea of him as an eighteenth century celebrity author, and in doing so the insecurities of a self-professed, apparently diffident man, are revealed. Barbauld’s capacious, but heavily edited selection of letters is analyzed in this thesis, providing ample evidence that Richardson’s correspondents were more than just eager letter writers. By using Barbauld’s biography of Richardson this thesis aims to show how she manipulates the genre of life writing in her construction of him.
This thesis offers an alternative reading of how the Richardson manuscripts are viewed, redefining them as not simply a collection of letters, but as a collective entity, deliberately selected and archived as evidence of an early modern fan club, and its celebrity managing director
