Johann Mattheson’s Pièces de clavecin and Das neu-eröffnete Orchestre Mattheson’s Universal Style in Theory and Practice

Johann Mattheson’s Pièces de clavecin and Das neu-eröffnete Orchestre Mattheson’s Universal Style in Theory and Practice

A prolific music theorist and critic as well as an established composer Johannes Mattheson remains surprisingly understudied. In this important study Margaret Seares places Mattheson’s Pièces de clavecin (1714) in the context of his work as a public intellectual who encouraged German musicians and their musical public to eschew what he saw as the hidebound traditions of the past and instead embrace a universalism of style and expression derived from contemporary currents in music of the leading European nations. Beginning with the early non-musical writings by Mattheson Seares places them in the context of the cosmopolitan city-state of Hamburg before moving to a detailed study of his first major musical treatise Das neu-er¶ffnete Orchestre of 1713 in which he espoused his views about the musics of the past and present and in particular the characteristics of the musics of Germany Italy France and England. This latter section of the treatise Part III is edited and translated into English in the book's appendix - the first such translation available. Seares then moves on to an evaluation of the Pièces de clavecin as a work in which Mattheson reflects in musical terms the themes of modernism (in the sense of la mode) and universalism that are such a strong part of his writings of the period and a work that represents an important precursor for the keyboard suites of Johann Sebastian Bach and Georg Frideric Handel. | Johann Mattheson’s Pièces de clavecin and Das neu-eröffnete Orchestre Mattheson’s Universal Style in Theory and Practice

Dirt in Victorian Literature and Culture Writing Materiality

Dirt in Victorian Literature and Culture Writing Materiality

Addressing the Victorian obsession with the sordid materiality of modern life this book studies dirt in nineteenth-century English literature and the Victorian cultural imagination. Dirt litters Victorian writing – industrial novels literature about the city slum fiction bluebooks and the reports of sanitary reformers. It seems to be matter out of place challenging traditional concepts of art and disregarding the concern with hygiene deodorization and purification at the center of the civilizing process. Drawing upon Material Cultural Studies for an analysis of the complex relationships between dirt and textuality the study adds a new perspective to scholarship on both the Victorian sanitation movement and Victorian fiction. The chapters focus on Victorian commodity culture as a backdrop to narratives about refuse and rubbish; on the impact of waste and ordure on life stories; on the production and circulation of affective responses to filth in realist novels and slum travelogues; and on the function of dirt for both colonial discourse and its deconstruction in postcolonial writing. They address questions as to how texts about dirt create the effect of materiality how dirt constructs or deconstructs meaning and how the project of writing dirt attempts to contain its excessive materiality. Schülting discusses representations of dirt in a variety of texts by Charles Dickens E. M. Forster Elizabeth Gaskell George Gissing James Greenwood Henry James Charles Kingsley Henry Mayhew George Moore Arthur Morrison and others. In addition she offers a sustained analysis of the impact of dirt on writing strategies and genre conventions and pays particular attention to those moments when dirt is recycled and becomes the source of literary creation. | Dirt in Victorian Literature and Culture Writing Materiality
