The Original Portrayal of Mozart’s Don Giovanni

The Original Portrayal of Mozart’s Don Giovanni offers an original reading of Mozart’s and Da Ponte’s opera Don Giovanni using as a lens the portrayal of the title role by its creator the baritone Luigi Bassi (1766–1825). Although Bassi was coached in the role by the composer himself his portrayal has never been studied in depth before and this book presents a large number of new sources (first- and second-hand accounts) which allows us to reconstruct his performance scene by scene. The book confronts Bassi’s portrayal with a study of the opera’s early German reception and performance history demonstrating how Don Giovanni as we know it today was not only created by Mozart Da Ponte and Luigi Bassi but also by the early German adapters translators critics and performers who turned the title character into the arrogant and violent villain we still encounter in most of today’s stage productions. Incorporating discussion of dramaturgical thinking of the late Enlightenment and the difficult moral problems that the opera raises this is an important study for scholars and researchers from opera studies theatre and performance studies music history as well as conductors directors and singers.

Gendered Modernity and Indian Cinema The Women in Satyajit Ray’s Films

This book analyses the role of women in the films of one of the leading filmmakers of the ‘Third World’ in the 1950s Satyajit Ray a national icon in filmmaking in India. The book explores the portrayal of women in the context of the creation of national culture after India became independent. Gender issues were very important to India under Jawaharlal Nehru in the 1950s – with the enactment of inheritance and divorce laws. Ray’s portrayal of women and his films anticipate much of the theorizing of later-day feminism. This book analyses cinematic texts with special reference to the women characters using feminist film theory and representation along with a study of the socio-political and economic conditions pertinent to the times – both relevant to the film’s making and its setting. The primary texts studied are films spanning over four decades from Pather Panchali (1955) to his last trilogy and are based on a categorization of the broad feminine ‘types’ represented in the films – based on the socio-political situations in which they are placed – and their relationships with the other characters present. Ray’s portrayal of women has an enormous bearing on our understanding of how modern India evolved in the Nehru era and after and this book explore just that: the place of the woman as it is and should be in a young nation encumbered by patriarchy. Gendered Modernity and Indian Cinema will be of interest to academics in the field of World cinema Indian and Bengali cinema Film Studies as well as Gender Studies and South Asian culture and society. | Gendered Modernity and Indian Cinema The Women in Satyajit Ray’s Films

Mobility and Identity in US Genre Painting Painting at the Threshold

This book examines the portrayal of themes of boundary crossing itinerancy relocation and displacement in US genre paintings during the second half of the long nineteenth century (c. 1860–1910). Through four diachronic case studies the book reveals how the high-stakes politics of mobility and identity during this period informed the production and reception of works of art by Eastman Johnson (1824–1906) Enoch Wood Perry Jr. (1831–1915) Thomas Hovenden (1840–95) and John Sloan (1871–1951). It also complicates art history’s canonical understandings of genre painting as a category that seeks to reinforce social hierarchies and emphasize more rooted connections to place by instead privileging portrayals of social flux and geographic instability. The book will be of interest to scholars working in art history literature American studies and cultural geography. | Mobility and Identity in US Genre Painting Painting at the Threshold

Margaret Drabble

Margaret Drabble is a writer who plays a lively role in both popular and literary culture. Widely read and studied throughout the world her novels attract both the general reader and the literary critic. Originally published in 1985 Joanne Creighton examines this phenomenon and places particular emphasis on her Englishness her role as a woman writing credibly about modern women and her ability to mediate between the traditional and the modern. She argues that the resonances of Drabble’s work grow put of her strong sense of the powers and resources of existing literary traditions coupled with her intelligent portrayal of the familiar problems of people in modern society and that is precisely this mediating position which makes Drabble an important voice in contemporary fiction and links her with other writers of her generation. Challenging those critics who see Drabble as a fiction traditionalist. Creighton finds her work open-ended inquiring equivocal and unquestionably contemporary in spirit.

Luke and the Jewish Other Politics of Identity in the Third Gospel

Luke and the Jewish Other takes up the debated question of the orientation of Luke toward the Jewish people. Building on recent studies in the social history of early Jewish-Christian relations it offers an analysis of Luke’s portrayal of Jewish and Christian identities that challenges the common assumption that the construction of religious identity in antiquity necessarily depended upon antagonistic relations with others. Taking account of the deep and often divisive difference that belief in Jesus made in Luke’s community the author argues that Luke hoped to bring about both a rapprochement with and the conversion of contemporary Jews. Through this account of identity and alterity in the Gospel of Luke the book cuts across boundaries of biblical studies history theology and social theory proposing a way forward for the study of Luke’s relation to Judaism and of the parting of the ways between Jews and Christians in the early Common Era. | Luke and the Jewish Other Politics of Identity in the Third Gospel
