Book Description
Italian comedians attracted audiences to performances at every level, from the magnificent Italian, German and French court festival appearances of Orlando di Lasso or Isabella Andreini, to the humble street trestle lazzi of anonymous quacks. The characters they inspired continue to exercise a profound cultural influence, and an understanding of the commedia dell'arte and its visual record is fundamental for scholars of post-1550 European drama, literature, art and music. The 340 plates presented here are considered in the light of the rise and spread of commedia stock types, and especially Harlequin, Zanni and the actresses. Intensively researched in public and private collections in Oxford, Munich, Florence, Venice, Paris and elsewhere, they complement the familiar images of Jacques Callot and the Stockholm Recueil Fossard within a framework of hundreds of significant pictures still virtually unknown in this context. These range from anonymous popular prints to pictures by artists such as Ambrogio Brambilla, Sebastian Vrancx, Jan Bruegel, Louis de Caulery, Marten de Vos, and members of the Valckenborch and Francken clans. This volume, essential for commedia dell'arte specialists, represents an invaluable reference resource for scholars, students, theatre practitioners and artists concerned with commedia-related aspects of visual, dramatic and festival culture, in and beyond Italy.

Book Description
First published in 1912, this was the first work to inquire into the many musical references in Dickens's works and the interesting light those references shed on ordinary musical life in the English household, the various instruments to be found there, certain songs and singers, and the place of church music in the home. Includes six valuable lists of musical references in Dickens and his times. This examination of the various musical references in Dickens' works is of the utmost importance from the historical point of view, for they reflect the general condition of ordinary musical life in England during the middle of the 19th century. This title is cited and recommended by the Cambridge Bibliography of English Literature.

Book Description
After years of neglect, composer Charles Ives (1874-1954) has been proclaimed as "the father of nearly everything American in American music." The lack of recognition that Ives suffered in his own lifetime - for example, he never heard most of his major pieces played - has been obliterated by all-Ives concerts, radio broadcast series, documentary films, books, and the establishment of Ives societies here and abroad. All these things attest to Ives's increasing stature since the fifties and give certain evidence that he has finally "arrived." Public acclaim for Ives's talents reached its zenith in the Charles Ives Centennial Festival-Conference, the first international congress ever dedicated to an American composer. This book is the record of the non-performance part of the festival-conference. It contains essays on Ives and American culture, chapters on conducting, performing, and editing Ives, comments from foreign scholars and composers, and a long section on Ives and present day musical thought. The papers and panels examine minute details of Ives's music and life in an attempt to explain the current "Ives phenomenon." The contributors are among the most important names in their respective fields.
