Eleonora Duse's Library: The Disclosure of Aesthetic Value in Real Acting
2010
Even though Eleonora Duse (1858-1924) referred to her books as her own artistic wardrobe, her most highly valued possessions, scholars and biographers have insisted on neglecting her library and furthermore, have for many years considered it lost forever. This article explains the value of the founding and reconstructing of the Murray Edwards Eleonora Duse Collection in Cambridge. She specifically refers to a selection of books which have been renamed 'Cleopatra's Books'. They are remarkable examples which are representative of Duse's library as a whole and lay bare the roots of Duse's intellectual evolution. Many have believed the romantic notion that Duse acted out her own personal life o…
Improvising on Emotion Terms: Students’ Strategies, Emotional Communication, and Aesthetic Value
2021
Studies in musical improvisation show that musicians and even children are able to communicate intended emotions to listeners at will. To understand emotional expressivity in music as an art form, communicative success needs to be related to improvisers’ thought processes and listeners’ aesthetic judgments. In the present study, we used retrospective verbal protocols to address college music students’ strategies in improvisations based on emotion terms. We also subjected their improvisations to expert ratings in terms of heard emotional content and aesthetic value. A qualitative analysis showed that improvisers used both generative strategies (expressible in intramusical terms) and imagina…
Expresivitatea limbajului popular în romanul haiducesc „Iancu Jianu, zapciu de plasă” și „Iancu Jianu, căpitan de haiduci” de Nicolae D. Popescu
2021
This paper analyzes the expressivity of popular language from the novels ”Iancu Jianu, Head of Administration” and ”Iancu Jianu, Captain of the Hajduks” by N.D. Popescu. The popular language is a language specific aspect, a language version and a main component of the oral version of the national language. In literary works, the popular language has a stylistic purpose. The aesthetic value of the text is the result of the process by which the expressiveness of the writer`s language is converted into an individual literary rule. The stylistic processes and brands encountered in popular language are national specific and they reflect the history, the way of thinking and the feelings of Romani…

Quel prix les habitants d'une région périurbaine payent-ils pour voir des paysages "verts" depuis chez eux ?
2009
National audience; L'objectif de cet article est d'estimer le prix d'attributs paysagers dans la région de Dijon. À partir d'images satellites et d'un modèle numérique de terrain, une méthode de géographie quantitative développée à partir de systèmes d'information géographique (SIG) permet de " mesurer " les paysages vus depuis le sol à travers une batterie d'indices. Sur la base de 2 667 transactions immobilières, un modèle économétrique utilisant la méthode des prix hédonistes permet d'estimer les prix des attributs paysagers ainsi quantifiés. Les résultats montrent, tout d'abord, que dans cette région les ménages sont " myopes ": le prix de paysages vus au-delà d'une ou deux centaines de…

Poziom akceptacji wartości witalnych i estetycznych a stereotypowe myślenie o starszych pracownikach studentów kierunków Ekonomia i Zarządzanie
2019
A growing number of old employees should be employed in future organisations, particularly in highly developed countries, and because of at least two reasons. First, the populations of many countries are aging. Second, the time of remaining active on the labour market is prolonging. The barriers for older workers on this market include age stereotypes regarding such workers. Therefore, it is important to know individual characteristics that are associated with stereotyped thinking about older workers. This paper presents the results of the research related to the relations between such thinking and two personal values. The results of the statistical analysis indicate that persons with low a…
