Le musiche di scena di Louis Pister per La Tosca di Sardou: edizione critica della partitura
No full textThe PhD dissertation of Erin M. Brooks, now Assistant Professor of Music History at the Crane School of Music (State University of New York at Potsdam), investigates the relationship between Sarah Bernhardt, the first performer of Floria in La Tosca, and the music of her time, including incidental music. Within this text, a relevant discovery of the author is mentioned, namely a manuscript of the stage music composed by a certain Louis Pister for Sardou’s pièce, preserved today at the National Library of Australia. The aim of this contribution is to propose a critical edition of the music composed by Pister, an essential document for the analysis of Sardou’s play. Moreover, we will try to reconstruct, through the inspection of contemporary periodicals, the reception of La Tosca and the biographical profile of the forgotten composer of incidental music.La tesi di dottorato di Erin M.

La violenza di genere nel melodramma: il caso del libretto dello Stiffelio e del successivo Aroldo
No full textVerdi’s opera Stiffelio premiered in 1850. Due to the censorship pressure, Verdi rewrote his work and created Aroldo. The plot of both operas is built on a conflict between the protestant pastor Stiffelio (then Aroldo) and his wife Lina (then Mina). The discovery of the affair between Lina and Raffaele (then Godvino), which is antecedent to the narration, marks the beginning of the conflict in the couple. Lina’s adultery with Raffaele leads the narration to a strong dualism, opposing the male characters – who blame the sinner – to Lina, the only female figure, who constantly tries to explain her position trying to get her husband’s forgiveness. The aim of this paper is to look into gender-based violence in the libretto, in order to understand Piave’s position towards a plot that concerns gender oppression. Moreover, this paper might also suggest a different interpretation of the forgiveness motif, which marks both operas’ finales, by a different understanding of Lina’s adultery

Starchitecture: Scenes, Actors and Spectacles in Contemporary Cities
No full textHow and why do spectacular buildings get commissioned and procured? What are their visible urban effects? What can urban planners, architects, and policymakers learn in order to engage in more successful citymaking?
In recent years, media and critical attention has been lavished on famous architects, and the contributions of their designs to the branding of cities. The post-“Bilbao effect” global landscape is one where cities compete for the highest-profile skyscrapers, cultural projects, and high-profile developments designed by star architects whom even casual readers know by first name: Frank Gehry, Bjarke Ingels, Jean Nouvel, Zaha Hadid, Norman Foster, Rem Koolhaas. Far less is known about the decision-making processes behind these projects and their subsequent urban effects.
A unique combination of urban studies and photography, Starchitecture investigates projects designed by star architects in cities including Paris, New York, Abu Dhabi, Bilbao, and the architectural microcosm of the Vitra campus in Weil am Rhein, Germany. Author Davide Ponzini and photographer Michele Nastasi seek to explain and critique a growing global condition by revealing how starchitecture has been and continues to be deployed in cities around the world. The arguments they raise are vital to understanding the urban landscapes of today, and tomorrow
