Тенденции при рецепцията на жанра мюзикъл в България през шейсетте години на XX век

Author(s): Miglena Tzenova-Nushevа / Language(s): English,Bulgarian Issue: 4/2018

The Musical has been developing and spreading throughout Bulgaria for more than half a century (from 1963 until now). This period is significantly shorter in comparison with the development and dissemination of opera, operetta, and ballet in Bulgaria. The reception of the musical in Bulgaria from 1963 to 2013 has been discussed by the author of the present text in the conference ‘Bulgarian Musicology – Retrospectives and Perspectives.’ Considering the provided amount of publications, however, the present text is focused only on the trends in the reception of the musical in Bulgaria in the 1960s. If another suitable opportunity for publication occurs, the reception trends of the musical in Bulgaria from the beginning of the 1970s to 2013 (and even until 2018) will be presented in additional publications. The text of the present article is based on the historical, comparative, and typological research methods.

Quelques notes sur l'iconographie du cycle de la Vita de Saint Gérasime du Jourdain dans la peinture roumaine

Author(s): Constantin I. Ciobanu / Language(s): French Issue: 1/2019

St. Gerasimus of the Jordan – founder of the monasteries in Palestine – died on March 5, 475 AD. The Latin and Syrian calendars honor his memory on March 5. In most Greek calendars the saint is mentioned on March 4, but there are certain calendars – related to the status of Studios Monastery – where his commemoration takes place on March 20. This article presents a brief overview of the evolution of St. Gerasimus iconography over the centuries, from the first known image, preserved in the mural painting of St. Anthony's monastery in Novgorod, to the examples of some of the seventeenth-century icons or some illustrated manuscripts from the eighteenth century. A special role is given to the description of the scenes contains The Story of St. Gerasimus' lion preserved in the Moldavian mural paintings of the 16th century. This story is inspired by one of the chapters of John Moschus' The Spiritual Meadow and has many similarities with The Story of St. Jerome and the Lion. The frescoes of the Humor and Voroneţ monasteries have preserved the Slavonic inscriptions, thanks to which we can today reconstruct the contents of the mural cycles dedicated to this story.

Facing the Foreign: The Aftermath of World War II and Estonian as Otherness in Two Films by Ingmar Bergman

Author(s): Christo Burman / Language(s): English Issue: 6/2018

Drawing on a few concepts of postcolonialism, including Edward Said’s idea of Orientalism and Stuart Hall’s theory on representation, this article explores the representations of Estonian culture and language in two films by Ingmar Bergman, This Can’t Happen Here (Sånt händer inte här, Sweden, 1950; also known as High Tension) and The Silence (Tystnaden, Sweden, 1963). Through a descriptive textual analysis of the Estonian representational elements in these films, the article suggests that Bergman uses Estonian language and culture to establish a certain kind of Otherness, marking a cultural hegemony and exotifying a new foreign element in post-war Sweden. An additional aim of the article is to present and contextualise the exiled Estonian actors that starred in This Can’t Happen Here, as this has not been done in a scholarly context, and since the film ended up being their only cinematic appearance in their new adopted country.

TAKING THE ACTORS SERIOUSLY: MICHIEL VANDEVELDE’S “PARADISE NOW (1968–2018)”

Author(s): Joe Kelleher / Language(s): English Issue: 1/2019

The article departs from a phrase in Paul Ricoeur’s “Memory, History, Forgetting” (2003), and attempts to take Ricoeur at his word, by taking seriously the troupe of Flemish teenage actors performing Michiel Vandevelde’s “Paradise Now (1968–2018)”, a re-working of the iconic performance by The Living Theatre, which when it was presented fifty years ago at the Avignon Festival offered itself as a preparation for its audience to take action, individually and collectively, personally and politically, beyond the space of the theatrical representation. Vandevelde and the teenagers’ re-do functions rather differently. Drawing as much on film history and news and popular media as on theatre history, it offers a compilation of iconic images winding back to 1968, an occasion for these young 21st century performercitizens – at once theatrical actors and “actors” of their own history – to voice their ambivalence about the potentials for common action in the present moment and the times ahead.

MICHAEL CHEKHOV, SPIRITUALITY AND SOVIET THEATRE

Author(s): Liisa Byckling / Language(s): English Issue: 1/2019

The present article discusses the work of Michael Chekhov, director of the Second Moscow Art Theatre from 1922 to 1928. After the October revolution Chekhov sought to withstand the threat from those ideological tendencies which led away from the ideals and spiritual values of his teacher Konstantin Stanislavsky. The reasons for Chekhov’s emigration were connected both with his opposition to Soviet cultural policy and the repression of religious groups in Russia. Chekhov was the most famous follower in the Russian theatre of the anthroposophist, Rudolf Steiner. In his production of “Hamlet” Chekhov also followed the spiritual ideas of the Russian symbolists while applying new methods of acting.

Metafora ir mise-en-scéne

Author(s): Edgaras Klivis / Language(s): Lithuanian Issue: 36/2004

Humanistic studies of the 20th century have expanded the theory of metaphor into different fields like historiography, narratology, culture studies, etc. What are the possibilities for applying the theory to studies of the visual and performing arts, and theatre in particular? The article deals with the issue, introducing R. Jakobson’s theory, the idea of cognitive value of metaphor, and P. Ricoeur’s hermeneutic principles as different theoretical attitudes towards metaphor. Different perspectives expose different ways of perceiving the metaphorical structures of mise-en-scéne and distinct qualities of what can be called the “stage metaphor”. Thus, the means of integrating different stage systems, the forms of representation and the relation of performance text to cultural context can be investigated, invoking the key concept of metaphor. The theory of metaphor is also an effective way to locate and to interpret particular historical theatrical processes, such as for example the productions of the representatives of Lithuanian metaphorical theatre: J. Jurašas, E. Nekrošius, J. Vaitkus.

Simbol sau indice? Despre polisemia culorii în imaginea de tradiție bizantină

Author(s): Vlad Bedros / Language(s): Romanian Issue: 65/2019

In the Byzantine tradition the symbolic value of the colour is difficult to approach within the terms of cultural anthropology in the absence of a discourse produced by the cultural elites of the Empire regarding the significance of colours, an absence caused by their different way of theorizing the colour (relevant for them being not the chromatic tone, but the luminosity and the saturation). On the other hand, a more cautious approach of the colours’ iconography might have as a reference point the index value which sometimes is attributed to the colour regarding the articulation of the images’ sense through the denotation of some materialities; however their identification is strictly dependent on the wider context of the pictorial representation.

Ce culoare are Moartea? Răspunsuri ale iconografiei religioase românești (sec. XVIII-XIX)

Author(s): Cristina Beatrix Bogdan / Language(s): Romanian Issue: 65/2019

The present study has as central subject Death as a character transposed into an image. The concept and the way of representation of this symbol built around an irrepresentable figure bring into discussion numerous unknown aspects, as the reasons which determined the artists to include these images in their works but especially the way in which they transposed into image the death spectre (the appearance, the gender or the colour of Death) depending on the area and the historical context they lived and created in. The answers were sought within the Romanian religious iconography of the 18th-19th centuries, especially in various areas from the North-West and the centre of the country. Iconographical patterns were identified following a fascinating periplus through the eschatological iconography; these were perpetuated between 1750 and 1830 creating a sort of coherence and visual identity regarding the macabre characters, and the itinerant nature of the painters’ work contributed to the translation of certain images from one religious monument to another and to the creation of patterns. The details’ analysis regarding the colours in which Death was imagined could prove useful for understanding the context in which it made felt its presence and the way in which the painters from different areas proposed versions to certify their vision and to relate the routes that were travelled and the influences they felt.

Maskovité korálky na Moravě

Author(s): Hana Čižmářová / Language(s): Czech Issue: SUPPL./2019

Age glass decoration represents so called “mask“ beads. This topic was developed by M. Karwowski, who divided the beads into the two types – the “mask-beads“ (type 904 after Venclová), and the “bobbin-beads“ (type 904 after Venclová). In Central Europe both types were known already in LT C1 and they continued to occur until the late La Tène Period. They are still rare in Moravia: in addition to few old finds, a few other finds have been reported from other places. However, most of these new artefacts unfortunately did not originate from closed find complexes, but they were found by surface survey. The distribution map shows these artefacts barely occur to the north and west of Moravia.

Amerikan Şiirinde Avangart Geleneğin Elektronik Yansıması: Dijital Şiir

Author(s): Memet Metin Barlık / Language(s): Turkish Issue: 99/2019

The avant-garde movements of American poetry after the 1950s, criticizing the traditional norms of the former periods, were eager to form an alternative renewing and developing culture, and tended to consider the demands of the populace of the readers. Black Mountain College (1950—56), Greenwich Village (1950—63), the Black Arts Movement (1962—70), the Language poets of New York and San Francisco (1979—89) were among the major avant-garde movements. The avant-garde approach was not only affective in literature but also in other genres of art, such as music and painting. The expressionist painting and Jazz music brought a new function to these genres of art. Avant-gardism also created a warm communication among different genres of arts, and changed the traditional norms of the presentation of the new forms. Powerful computer technologies and the new innovations of telecommunication created sites such as e-identity, e-education, digital art and digital criticism.
