Finding the Way; it fit him to a "T": Steve Lacy and Thelonious Monk's "Pannonica"
In this thesis I provide a biography of soprano saxophonist Steve Lacy, a discussion of the impact that the music and the man Thelonious Monk had on Steve Lacy and how it influenced Lacy’s performance style. I provide historical and analytical commentary about the song, “Pannonica,” and the woman, the Baroness Kathleen Annie Pannonica Rothschild de Koenigswarter, who inspired its composition by Thelonious Monk. I follow with a transcription and analysis of Lacy’s performance of “Pannonica” from his 1965 record, Disposability. The transcription of the performance, including the bass line as played by Kent Carter appears in the appendix along with a comparison of Lacy’s and Monk’s performances of the head and out-chorus of the song and a chorus-by-chorus comparison of Lacy’s performance.
The appendices also include interviews with several performers who have had a significant relationship with Lacy or the music of Thelonious Monk. These interviews help to provide further insights into the significant contribution Lacy made to creative music during his career. A bibliography of articles about Lacy sourced from the Jazzinsitut Darmstadt about Lacy as well as a complete discography are also included.
Lacy was a multi-faceted artist, a polymath with a keen interest in music, art and literature. He had many collaborations with writers, artists and dancers. While not the focus of this thesis, the breadth of Lacy’s knowledge and passions are obvious in a number of the sources I have consulted and quoted and form an important subtext of this work.M.A.Includes bibliographical reference

John Lacy,Sauny the Scot
Sauny the Scot (1667) was written for production by the King's Company to which the author,John Lacy,himself belonged as a shareholder,actor and dramatist. Lacy made the Restoration new comedy as a mixed adaptation from Shakespeare's The Taming of the Shrew (1594),the anonymous play The Taming of a Shrew (1594),and John Fletcher's The Woman's Prize,or The Tamer Tamed (1611). By doing so,he was able to give focus to his own part Sauny,Petruahio's Scottish footman. As Katherine West Sheil (1997:72-73) points out,the most important sources for making Sauny an 'outsider' was John Tatham's so-called Scots plays: The Distracted State (1641),The Scots Figgaries; or A Knot of Knaves(1652),and The Rump,or The Mirror of the Late Times (1660). Lacy thus enlarged Sauny's role,making use of the conventional images seen in these comtemporary plays: Petruahio's Italian footman Grumio in Shakespeare tums into a Scots one Sauny in Lacy,who often interludes the conversations between the gay couple,Petruchio and Margaret,or other characters,causing laughter mainly with his Scottishness. Whreas both the basic plot development and a great number of words and phrases in Sauny the Scot are from Shakespeare's The Taming of the Shrew,there are some differences: the induction of Christopher Sly was lost; the locations became England (London); some names were Anglicized such as Lord Beaufoy,Woodall,and Sir Lionel Winlove; all the characters speak in prose; song and dance was increased; and more violent elements can be seen in Sauny the Scot,which offer more opportunities for the repressed characters to lay bare their hearts on stage. It is at this time when they express themselves that the new comic atmosphere in Sauny the Scot is created,for example,in the conversations between Petruahio and his footman, Sauny,Margaret and her younger sister,Bianca, and Petruahio and his wife,Margaret. For the closing,Lacy creates a very impressive scene in Act 5, making good use of the material from Fletcher's The Woman's Prize. Sauny the Scot was performed more than 30 times as recorded,from its first performance in Drury Lane Theatre,Bridges Street,on April 9th, 1667, until the next new adaptation,Catherine and Petruchio,by David Garrick in 1756. From the viewpoint of theatrical history,we can safely say that Lacy played an important role in supplying a Shakespearean adaptation to the Restoration stage,which became part of the repertory until the middle of the 18th century
Constraint Universality and Prosodic Phrasing in Māori
This paper explores the notion that all constraints are present in all grammars (‘Universality’). For any pair of constraints, Universality is shown to produce four types of system, differing in terms of the constraints’ activity (i.e. visible effect). Conditions on the typological predictions are identified, building on Samek-Lodovici (1996, 1998a,b). The empirical focus is the Polynesian language Maori, for which it is argued that both left and right edges of lexical syntactic phrases align with the left and right edges of Phonological Phrases respectively.The definitive version of this paper was published in Carpenter, A., Coetzee, A., and de Lacy, P. (Eds.). University of Massachusetts Occasional Papers 26, Papers in Optimality Theory II (2003), pp. 59-79
Edge Asymmetries in Phonology and Morphology
Many phonological and morphological phenomena affect only the left edge of a constituent, but never the right. We argue that such edge bias is due to a formal limitation on constraints: reference to the right edge is not possible. Cases of apparent right-edge reference are due to other factors that happen to approximate right-edgeness. We discuss edge asymmetries in morphological concatenation (prefixing), footing, larger prosodic inventories at the right edge, apparent right-edge preservation, and opacity.The definitive version of this paper was published in Proceedings of the North East Linguistic Society 30 (NELS 30) and is available at glsa.hypermart.netBye, P., & de Lacy, P.

Circumscriptive morphemes
The aim of this paper is to present evidence for a hitherto unrecognised type of morpheme: a haplologizing reduplicant, dubbed a 'circumscriptive morpheme' here. Unlike standard reduplicants, these morphemes coalesce with phonological material instead of copying it. Circumscriptive morphemes are shown to be essential in accounting for morphologically-induced lengthening and reduplicative infixation in the Polynesian language Maori. Other potential applications - as in parsing-out circumscription, truncation, and subtractive morphology - are also discussed.The definitive version was published in Proceedings of AFLA (Austronesian Formal Linguistics Association) VI (1999) and is available at http://twpl.library.utoronto.ca/index.php/twplde Lacy, P.
