The Secret Wisdom of Emblems

Symbolorum

Ashgate Contemporary Thinkers on Critical Musicology Series

This collection of studies represents the range of Rosand's contribution to the history and criticism of music of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. Varied in focus and scope, each of these studies is directed toward developing an understanding of the ways in which music works. Taken together, the articles demonstrate how Rosand has opened entirely new prospects on seventeenth-century music and offered new insight into the more canonical repertoire of the eighteenth century.

Traum – Wissen – Erzählen

Für Lyrikerinnen der Barockepoche hat der poetische Traum eine geschlechtsspezifische Bedeutung: Das Dichten über Träume kann schreibenden Frauen im 17. Jahrhundert gewisse Lizenzen bieten. Inszeniert als Verbindungsmedium zu Gott oder als Ort der (Wieder-)Begegnung mit geliebten Menschen erfüllt der Traum die Funktion eines erweiterten, aber abgesicherten Spielraums, der die dichterische Entfaltung trotz sozialer sowie regelpoetischer Begrenzungen ermöglicht. 

Die vorliegende Studie untersucht dieses Potenzial des poetischen Traums anhand exemplarischer Gedichte deutschsprachiger Barocklyrikerinnen wie Margaretha Susanna von Kuntsch und Maria Katharina Stockfleth unter besonderer Berücksichtigung des Geschlechter- und Traumdiskurses der Zeit. Ein kontrastiver Vergleich mit ausgewählten Traumdichtungen von Aemilia Lanyer, Mary Wroth und weiteren englischsprachigen Zeitgenossinnen erlaubt hierbei eine neue Akzentuierung des Blicks auf die Vertreterinnen des deutschen Sprachraums.

The Baroque Composers

The field of Monteverdi studies has seen many ground-breaking contributions from musicologists in recent years. This collection of articles exemplifies the best of this scholarship in English and includes papers on a wide range of issues including some of the 'big' questions in the historiography and hermeneutics of early Baroque music: musical rep

This book presents a social history of the violin in Australia from 1788 to 1914, exploring its pivotal role in colonial society and influence on local music-making and culture. It provides scholars with new insights into how musical instruments like the violin were used to navigate and express social boundaries within a colonial framework. Initially introduced by British settlers, the violin emerged as a powerful cultural symbol across social classes, genders, and ethnic backgrounds. Through a historical lens, this narrative examines the violin's integration into Australian society, reflecting the complexities of identity, colonial values, and Indigenous resilience. Featuring an in-depth analysis of diverse historical sources, such as newspapers, letters, and musical programmes, readers are offered a comprehensive view of Australia's musical past. Each chapter highlights notable violinists, illustrating how the violin either reinforced or challenged existing social hierarchies. This exploration extends into broader themes of colonisation, empire, and cultural survival. By uncovering an overlooked facet of Australia's cultural landscape, this study significantly contributes to the fields of music history, colonial studies, and Australian history.Aimed at an academic audience, this book will appeal to those interested in colonial history, Australian music, and cultural studies. Through its detailed analysis, it offers an essential resource for understanding the ways that music served as a medium for both cultural continuity and transformation in Australia's complex colonial context.

The Baroque

Illuminating Women Artists

The first monograph on the artist to be published in English, this book provides a long-overdue introduction to the life and work of Portuguese painter Josefa de Ayala, known as Josefa de Óbidos (1630-1684). One of the best known and most celebrated artists of the Portuguese baroque, she is the only early modern female artist to be credited with representing the art of a whole period and a geographical area. Her paintings encompass a diversity of religious and secular subjects in a variety of formats, from portraits to still lifes; small oils on copper to large church altarpieces; seemingly 'feminine' themes revolving around the Virgin Mary and female saints to gruesome portrayals of the Passion of Christ. Her oeuvre also includes engravings. Josefa de Óbidos enjoyed a level of artistic and personal autonomy that was extraordinary for a woman of her day. She never married, and kept her own workshop after attaining the legal title of 'donzela emancipada' (emancipated maiden), which allowed for her independence. In addition to working as an artist, she was a successful businesswoman and landowner. Documentation at the time of her death indicates that she owned, in addition to her personal residence, a remarkable number of country houses, vineyards, and orchards, as well as yields from wheat and barley. This timely study situates the artist within the context of the Iberian and broader European artistic milieux of her time, the careers and experiences of other early modern women artists, and the material culture of Portugal's global territories, bringing Josefa de Óbidos' artistic achievement and transnational character to light.

When this volume was originally published in 1954 it was the first complete history of the Bach family from the 16th Century miller Veit to Wilhelm Friedrich Ernst (1759-1845), Johann Sebastian's grandson.

In 1679, the commentator Joachim von Sandrart described Maria Sibylla Merian (1647-1717) as a painter who had perfected the art of the miniature and of flower painting, a high and deserved honour. Posthumously, however, it is Merian's status as an entomologist or naturalist that has garnered the most attention; she has not received her due as an artist. This book remedies this situation and assists the reader in understanding Merian's life as a woman and as an artist in the early modern Dutch Republic. Using Merian's hundreds of extant watercolours and book illustrations as sources, in combination with her surviving correspondence and with contemporary art treatises, Catherine Powell-Warren recognizes the artistic contributions of Maria Sibylla Merian, and situates them in their socio-cultural and creative context. This book is the first to consider Merian's art and art-historical significance: her artistic range; her techniques; the rich visual rhetoric she deployed in her works; and her innovations. Merian may not have been a guild member, but she was for all intents and purposes the head of a for-profit business (a 'master'), seeing to the training of her daughters and managing a successful workshop, publishing her works, and networking to secure patrons and resources. Considering the impediments she faced as a woman, her achievements as an artist, as well as in other realms, can be considered noteworthy and perhaps even extraordinary.

The life and career of George Frideric Handel, one of the most frequently performed Baroque composers, are thoroughly documented in a wide variety of contemporary sources. This multi-volume publication, the most up-to-date, fully annotated collection of these documents, presents them chronologically, providing an essential resource for anyone interested in Handel and his music. The collection also gives insights into broader topics such as court life, theatre history, public concerts, and music publishing. Volume 5 begins with the composition of Handel's last original scores for his London oratorio seasons - The Choice of Hercules and Jephtha. The death of the Prince of Wales curtailed his 1751 season and deteriorating eyesight delayed the completion of Jephtha. Nevertheless, his annual Lenten oratorios and Messiah performances at the Foundling Hospital continued. At the same time, his music was increasingly heard in the provinces and referred to in the new literary genre of the novel.

Authorship is a pertinent issue for historical musicology and musicians more widely.The discovery of new sources and methodologies has also opened up opportunities for reassessing specific authorship problems. This book aims to build on what has already been achieved by focusing on keyboard music.
