Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2002 im Fachbereich Musikwissenschaft, Note: 1,0, Ludwig-Maximilians-Universit t M nchen (Institut f r Musikwissenschaft an der LMU), Veranstaltung: Kurt Weill-Seminar, 4 Quellen im Literaturverzeichnis, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Die Seminararbeit befasst sich auf musikwissenschaftlicher Ebene mit der Analyse der Popularit t der Kavatine "What good would the moon be" aus der einzigen Oper Kurt Weills "Street Scene." Ein Werk, welches in der Musiktheaterszene der Zeit eine unerh rte Neuheit darstellte, denn es ist von Weill ausdr cklich als Oper f r den Broadway verfasst worden. Die New York Times u erte sich am 26. Januar 1947 zur Premiere folgenderma en: "Oper am Broadway, Kurt Weil gelingt ein Schritt zur Vertonung eines idiomatischen Amerikanisch Wir hegten schon seit langem den Verdacht, dass die amerikanische Oper - im lebendigen, zeitgem en Sinne des Wortes - eher aus unserem popul ren Theater erwachsen w rde, als aus den erhabenen Tempeln der Opernkunst. Nachdem wir Street Scene im Adelphi Theatre sehen und h ren konnten, erscheint unsere Vermutung vollkommen gerechtfertigt gewesen zu sein. In seiner Herangehensweise an die musikdramaturgischen Probleme ist das St ck so idiomatisch, amerikanisch, direkt und unakademisch, wie es k nstliche und unverwurzelte Oper (The Warrior von Bernard Rogers), ebenfalls eine einheimische Produktion, die letzte Woche an der Met gegeben wurde, eben nicht war. In der Tat, Street Scene, das Drama von Elmer Rice, die Musik von Kurt Weill, mit Gesangstexten von Langston Hughes ist der wichtigste Schritt in Richtung einer bedeutenden amerikanischen Oper, den dieser Rezensent im Musiktheater bislang beobachten konnte."
The Shirreff sisters, Emily (1814–97) and Maria Georgina (later Grey; 1816–1906) were pioneers in the field of education for girls in the wider context of women's rights. They jointly wrote the influential two-volume Thoughts on Self-Culture, Addressed to Women (1850), and Emily (whose books are also reissued in this series) was briefly the principal of the college at Hitchin which became Girton College, Cambridge. The sisters founded the Girls' Public Day School Company in 1872; by 1905 it had opened 37 girls' schools across Britain. Grey also set up the first training college for women in London in 1878: it was renamed in her honour in 1892. In this 1889 work, she looks back, offering to the young 'the results of her life's thought and experience', and endeavouring to help late-Victorian school-leavers answer the questions 'Where are we going? What is the use and object of all this school work?'

Showalter's thoughtful, detailed introductory essay is a comprehensive analysis between Rosetti's novella and Craik's essays...the biographical portrait of Christina Rossetti's conflicts makes her a vivid example of the psychological and social barriers to the development of the female poets...her description of Dinah Mulock Craik stressed this woman's common-sense approach to ameliorating the position of the working-class woman in society...useful to students of feminist theory and of Victorian literature. --Academic Library Book Review Cristina Rossetti was nineteen years old when she wrote Maude: Prose and Verse in 1850. Clearly autobiographical, the novel examines the heroine's endeavor to resist the notion that modesty, virtue and domesticity constitute the sole duties of womanhood. For the precocious young poet, the work was only one of several projects of her teens. Growing up in London as the youngest child in a gifted and unusual family of artists and writers, Rossetti had early developed a poetic vocation.But by the time she wrote Maude, the lively, passionate, and adventurous little girl who had hated needlework, delighted in fiercely competitive games of chess, and explored the country with her brothers became a painfully constrained, sickly, and over-scrupulous teenager. Maude makes clear that at least some of Rossetti's affliction came from anxieties about poetic achievement, her wishes both to be admired for her genius and to renounce it as unfeminine. Often overshadowed by her brother Dante Gabriel Rossetti, Christina struggled to express her own independent authorial voice, and to resist a life bound by the constraints and demands of the traditional female role. Other late Victorian attitudes towards Anglican women's communities are brought out in On Sisterhoods by Dinah Mulock Craik which appeared in Longman's magazine in 1883. Craik herself worked on the literary border between feminine gentility and feminist rebellion. In 1850, when Christina Rossetti was writing Maude within the confines of her family, Dinah Mulock was supporting herself and her two younger brothers by her pen. On Sisterhoods confronts head-on 'the woman question.'Asserting that women's role is to find beauty in their lives through altruism and good works--to be more or less 'good women'--Craik provides a radical solution to the 'woman question' by advocating the encouragement of Anglican sisterhoods, effectively women's co-operatives. For her, the strongest argument for such a sisterhood is the alternative life it offers to single women, with no outlets for their maternal emotions. The third text presented here, Craik's A Woman's Thoughts About Women, was a widely circulated manual of advice on female self-sufficiency for unmarried women, based on her own experience in a family left destitute by an eccentric father when she was nineteen. It addressed a pressing contemporary problem: the large number of urban single women who were well educated and qualified but for whom traditional employment offered no place. Craik understood that independence would come hard to middle-class women, yet she was optimistic about the ways women might re-educate themselves, abandoning false pride and learning to manage small businesses or conduct trades.Throughout her career, Craik masked her private feminist views with disdain for women's rights and criticism of women's public activism. Unmarried and self-supporting until the age of forty, she wrote about the problems of single and working women in over fifty popular novels, children's stories and collections of essays.
