Courtney Pine Courtney Pine Jamaica päritolu Briti saksofoniäss Courtney Pine vallutas 1998. aastal Jazzkaare kuulajad tormijooksuga, mängides tenor- ja sopranssaksofoniga korraga energiast pulbitsevat moekat jazzi, 2005 aastal võis seda uuesti kuulda jõulujazzil . Courtney Pine on Briti jazzmuusika superstaar, helilooja-interpreet, kes oskab valmistada hõrke segusid maailmamuusikast, tänastest rütmidest ja kõladest.

1. The Jacobean masque Elizabethan one nation culture, now cultural polarisation between the new courtly culture and the rest of the country. Court in cultural isolation. Ben Jonson. King and courtiers were close to universally recognised ideal types (conflict with the reality). Mysticism. Emergence of perspective view, stage machinery, artificial light, revolution. The stage cast the monarch in the focal point (the lines of perspective of the stage met there. Inigo Jones. Masque an educative vehicle, towards classical antiquity and architecture. Tide towards absolute monarchy. Masque – linked poetry and moral philosophy into art. Music, dance, poetry, lavish illusionistic scenic display to express the doctrines of divine kingship. Great impact. Like gods come down to earth. 2. The Caroline masque Charles decided on subject matter, and acted and danced in masques. Now the regal divinity even more obvious. Ben Jonson. Divine m...
THE CITY OF LONDON History The City of London occupies one square mile in the middle of the capital. It once made up entire town of London, surrounded by the wall first built by Romans. The Romans also built a bridge over the Thames and there has been one in the same area ever since. The Roman Londinium grew up on the northern side of the bridge. In AD 61 the native Celtic tribe, led by Queen Boudicca, rose up against the Romans. They burnt down Londinium to the ground and killed most of its inhabitants. Roman armies eventually defeated Boudicca and Londinium was rebuilt. At the end of the fourth century AD the Roman Empire began to crumble and the Roman armies were recalled from Britain to defend Rome itself. Once they had left, tribes such as Angles, Saxons and Jutes invaded and settled in from Holland, Germany and Denmark. Together they are known as Anglo-Saxons. They were farming people who pr...
Barokk Renessansikirjandusest arenes 17.sajandil välja 2 mitmeti vastandlikku kunstisuunda: barokk ja klassitsism. Barokk muutus valdvaks katoliku suunitlusega maades (Hispaania, Itaalia) Barokk põhineb nii sisult kui ka vormilt teravatele kontrastidele, eelistab dramaatilisi situatsioone ja erakordseid kangelasi, kaldub äärmuslikkusesse nii vooruste ja tunnete kui ka julmuste ja õuduste kujutamisel, stiil sageli raskepärane. Luule: Luis de Góngora (1561-1627) poeemid (“Üksindused”) – kujundirikas ja keeruline väljenduslaad (gongorism) Francisco de Quevedo (1580-1645) proosasatiirid “Unenäod” (1627) “Kelm Pablose elukäik” kaasajasündmuste kujutamine, mure kodumaa allakäigu pärast; surmateemalised sonetid (eksistentsialism) Draama: Pedro Calderón de La Barca (1600-1681) viljakas kirjanik, kirjutas teatris esitamise jaoks, kirjutanud u 200 draamateost, neist u 120 ilmalikku ja u 80 vaimulikku näidendit, lisaks koo...
The City of London History The City of London occupies one square mile in the middle of the capital. It once made up the entire town of London, surrounded by the wall first built by the Romans. The Roman Londinium grew up on the northern side of the "London Bridge" in the past. Products such as olive oil, wines and fruit were brought by ships from different parts of the Roman Empire and unloaded onto wooden quays along the river. In AD 61 the native Celtic Iceni tribe, led by Queen Boudicca, rose up against The Romans. They burnt Londinium to the ground but Roman armies eventually defeated Boudicca. The city was rebuilt and was gradually surrounded with a wall of stone and brick which lasted for many centuries. During the archeological excavations in 1954 the Roman Temple of Mithras was revealed. It was a pagan temple dedicated to the Persian Sun-god. The Temple was later reconstructed only a short way...
Maailmakirjandus III. Valgustus. Romantism. Realism - 15/16 sügis Üldine sissejuhatus: Valgustust ja romantismi vaadeldakse tihti koos, sest nad nö „jooksevad üksteisele sisse“. Valgustus tähistab maailma ümber mõtlemist. Maailm muutub radikaalselt ka muudes valdkondades (industrialiseerumine). 18. sajand on maailmakorra muutumise tähis. Valgusutus paneb rõhku inimeste teadmistele ja haridusele. Inimesi kutsutakse üles mõtlema oma peaga (usuvastasus?). Hariduse arenemise ja tähtsuse eelduseks oli tehnika, ja eriti trükitehnika, areng. Tekkis ka trükikontrolli küsimus, sest kõike, mida trükiti, ei jõutud lihtsalt kontrollida ja reguleerida (see oli ka Prantsusmaal revolutsiooni ja poliitika vastase liikumise edasiviiv jõud). Keskendume nüüd põhiliselt inglise valgustusele. 1711 „The Tatler“ – esimene ajaleht. Loetakse ajalehtede avaldamise alguseks. 18. sajandil hakkas ilukirjanduse hulk suure...
Maailmakirjandus III. Valgustus. Romantism. Realism 7.sept. Esimene osa valgustus. Valgustust ja romantismi vaadeldakse ühise kompleksina. Alates valgustusest võime vaadelda maailma enamvähem sarnasena sellega, mis ta on praegu. Sellel ajal pandi paika, millele rajaneb tänapäeva maailm. Midagi pole enam radikaalselt muutunud. Kirjanduse- ja loomingu mõttes on need alustalad. Valgustus tähistab maailma ümbermõtlemist. Sellepärast, et maailm läbi valgustuse muutub radikaalselt. Sel ajal jookseb maailmast läbi piir, mille taha jääb mingi varasem maailmakord ja mille järel tuleb uus maailmakord. Vanad asjad lähevad edasi, uued asjad on tekkinud juba enne kujutuslikku piiri. Pärast seda tuleb industriaalühiskond. 18.saj on piir, mis märgib nende muutuste tulekut. Kõige selle kõrval tekib ka uus ühiskondlik pilt. Vana aristokraatlik kord oli lagunenud ja vajas lõplikku ümberlükkamist. Selleks sündmuseks oli 1789 Prantsuse revolutsioon k...
