Moritz Hauptmann in München. Hochschuldidaktik im 19. Jahrhundert
2014
Dass Moritz Hauptmanns Buch Die Natur der Harmonik und der Metrik zur Basis institutionalisierter musiktheoretischer Unterweisung wurde, wie an der Koniglich bayerischen Musikschule in Munchen nachweisbar, mag angesichts des hohen Abstraktionsgrads dieser Schrift verwundern. Besonders der Unterricht in der ersten Dekade an der Musikschule kann als einzigartiges Exempel der systematischen Anwendung Hauptmanns in der Lehre verstanden werden. Der Beitrag erortert die Bedeutung der Schrift Hauptmanns fur die Lehre der wichtigsten Fachvertreter nach Grundung der Musikschule (Peter Cornelius und Josef Gabriel Rheinberger), sowie – als Verfallsgeschichte – in der Zeit nach Cornelius’ fruhem Tod un…
Designing Dialogs Around Picture Book Apps
2019
In Norwegian kindergartens there is a strong emphasis on communication and language stimulation. In this educational context the reading of picture book apps offers an opportunity for extended dialogs, which have great didactic potential in that they integrate language knowledge with cultural knowledge. In this chapter we discuss what dimensions of the picture book text (words and pictures), medium (app on digital tablet) and situation (adult-child relations) that the teacher needs to take into consideration when designing dialogs to encourage early language and literacy development in kindergarten. This work represents the first phase of a major innovation project that will develop a resea…
Illustrating a Family. The Printing Press and Political Issues in the "Ritratti della Prosapia et Heroi Moncadi nella Sicilia"
2021
In an early printed book, the presence of a large iconographic apparatus normally reveals a strong effort both in designing its shape and in the financial coverage needed to make it possible. Such effort can be fully explained by paying attention to the scope and target behind its conception. The two volumes of “Ritratti della Prosapia et heroi Moncadi nella Sicilia”, published in 1657 in Valencia, offer a notable example of the political exposure sought after by a noble family, that of Moncada, through the printing press technique and its power of circulation, combined with the attractiveness of family portraits. In particular, the 1657 book, written by Giovanni Agostino Della Lengueglia, …
La imagen de la Concha de Oro en los impresos de la Edad Moderna
2020
For centuries, an image commonly associated with Santiago de Compostela (the shell) has accompanied the city of Palermo as well. Since the classical tradition and medieval literature, and then during the Renaissance and Baroque age, this symbol has been connected with other urban symbols (the rivers, the eagle and trhe Genius of Palermo), thus contributing to its historical identity, although in a rather idealistic form. Therefore, the expression «Golden Shell» has been used repeatedly in a large number of books printed during the Modern Age, with multiple meanings. The main purpose was to show those attributes linked with the city's landscape (wealth and beauty) within a specific political…

Crítica musical y pensamiento estético en la España de la Restauración: José María Esperanza y Sola (1834-1905)
2015
One of the most outstanding figures of music criticism in the Spanish Restoration was José María Esperanza y Sola (1834-1905), active for thirty years, from the late 1860s until the end of the century. During this period, Esperanza collaborated in different periodical publications and, particularly, “La Ilustración Española y Americana”, from whose pages he informed about the most important musical events celebrated in Madrid, judged according to a conservative aesthetic criterion, opposed to any novelty that infringe the traditional music system. On the basis of Esperanza´s thought, our study analyzes the different subjects that constitute his journalistic production.La crítica musical en …
Lignes et points : Illustration, impressionnisme littéraire et procédés
2020
International audience; Cette conférence a porté de manière générale sur les rapports entre illustration et procédés de reproduction. Elle est plus précisément consacrée à l’utilisation de la photogravure dans le livre illustré britannique de la fin du 19ème siècle. L’exemple choisi est le recueil d’essais London Impressions (Constable, 1898) d’Alice Meynell, illustré par l’artiste britannique William Hyde. Peintre et aquafortiste, Hyde collaborait avec l’inventeur écossais Donald Cameron-Swan (1863-1951) de la Swan Electric Engraving Company, spécialisée dans le cliché trait comme dans le cliché simili. À la croisée de pratiques autographiques et d’opérations mécaniques, la photogravure al…

History teaching: real problems and interessed polemics
2006
En diversos países se ha tratado de poner límites a las innovaciones educativas, de diverso calado, que se estaban produciendo en la enseñanza de la historia, con la intención de retornar a un modelo de enseñanza más próximo a sus características tradicionales, a pesar de las muy razonadas críticas que este modelo tradicional había recibido. Las razones aducidas para tal reversión han variado de un país a otro, pero el objetivo compartido ha sido el de establecer unos programas más dirigistas y cerrados, de tipo marcadamente enciclopédico, en los que las posibilidades de actuación innovadora del profesorado, por una parte, y las de un aprendizaje más razonado del alumnado, por la otra, qued…

This article focuses on Leopoldo Cicognara's role as an advisor of the Italian publisher Giachetti (Prato).
