Abstract

Die Parodiemesse der frühen Neuzeit: Erste umfassende Darstellung der Kompositionstechniken dieser weit verbreiteten Messenart. Parodiemessen des 15. und 16. Jahrhunderts wurden über mehrstimmige Vorlagen (geistlich und weltlich) der Zeit geschrieben. Wie aber genau gestaltet sich die Übernahme des Vorlagenmaterials? Darauf versucht dieses Buch Antworten zu geben. Weniger die ästhetische Würdigung des Phänomens steht im Mittelpunkt, sondern vielmehr die technisch unglaublich vielfältige, akribische und spannende Arbeit mit vielen, meist auf den zweiten Blick erst sichtbaren Finessen. Detaillierte Untersuchungen von über 60 Parodiemessen der bekanntesten Komponisten der Zeit, zeigen das breite Spektrum kompositionstechnischer Möglichkeiten der Renaissance auf.

Abstract

Opera and Parody in Paris, 1860-1900 interrogates press caricatures and cartoons, popular song, staged revue and opera parodies to discover the role they play within the theatrical, social, and wider cultural context and economy they inhabit. These intertextual and intermedial ‘texts’ are analysed as reception documents, as ‘autonomous’ artistic products, as cultural phenomena to discover the ways in which their parody works, and for whom. This study interrogates press caricatures and cartoons, staged revue and opera parodies to reveal the role they play within the Parisian theatrical, social and cultural sphere. From the beginnings of Wagner reception in Paris, through the heyday of opra-bouffe in the hands of that comic genius Herv, to the international operatic repertoire played on Parisian stages in the 1890s especially works by Verdi and Wagner performed during an increasingly tense nationalist climate alongside those by Massenet, Reyer and Saint-Sans this book examines the workings of parody which draws on opera for its subject material, its appeal, and for whom. Parodys repetition of dramatic and musical conventions is compounded by the abundance of revue shows on Parisian stages, by prolific authors such as Clairville, which deftly used well-known opera and operetta repertoire alongside the scie that popular tune given new words countless times over to create new yet familiar theatrical experiences. Indeed, by the 1890s, the words and musics of Faust, Carmen and Guillaume Tell in particular, held resonant value to signify the operatic. Aside from political caricature in which the figure of Wagner became embroiled, the ways in which parody brings together the high and the low to mock cultural norms, to neutralise alterity or innovation and refocus commentary onto internal, local, conventional and legitimised cultural products and debates becomes apparent. Opera and Parody in Paris, 18601900 thus uncovers a huge amount of primary and hitherto unpublished sources in an analysis of highly appealing intermedial materials that dominated Parisian print and stage culture in the late-nineteenth century.

Abstract

Long before the satirical comedy of The Daily Show and The Colbert Report, the comic operas of W. S. Gilbert and Arthur Sullivan were the hottest send-ups of the day's political and cultural obsessions. Gilbert and Sullivan's productions always rose to the level of social commentary, despite being impertinent, absurd, or inane. Some viewers may take them straight, but what looks like sexism or stereotype was actually a clever strategy of critique. Parody was a powerful weapon in the culture wars of late-nineteenth-century England, and with defiantly in-your-face sophistication, Gilbert and Sullivan proved that popular culture can be intellectually as well as politically challenging.Carolyn Williams underscores Gilbert and Sullivan's creative and acute understanding of cultural formations. Her unique perspective shows how anxiety drives the troubled mind in the Lord Chancellor's "Nightmare Song" in Iolanthe and is vividly realized in the sexual and economic phrasing of the song's patter lyrics. The modern body appears automated and performative in the "Junction Song" in Thespis, anticipating Charlie Chaplin's factory worker in Modern Times. Williams also illuminates the use of magic in The Sorcerer, the parody of nautical melodrama in H.M.S. Pinafore, the ridicule of Victorian aesthetic and idyllic poetry in Patience, the autoethnography of The Mikado, the role of gender in Trial by Jury, and the theme of illegitimacy in The Pirates of Penzance. With her provocative reinterpretation of these artists and their work, Williams recasts our understanding of creativity in the late nineteenth century.

Abstract

"Drawing on interviews with mashup producers, close readings of the mashup music and videos, and a historically and aesthetically informed cultural studies approach, Brøvig demonstrates how mashup music embraces the essence of parody through its mashing and repurposing of sources, associations, and connotations"--
