Britain and the British in World Culture

 

31 octobre-1er novembre 2013, Saint-Pétersbourg (Russie). Call for Papers, date limite 15 juin 2013.

Celebrating Benjamin Britten's Centenary

Conference web site URL

Conference venue (institution and city) - Rimsky-Korsakov St.Petersburg State Conservatoire, St Petersburg, Russia.

The two-day international conference "Britain and the British in 20th Century Culture" will take place in St. Petersburg at the Rimsky-Korsakov Conservatoire from 31st October to 1st November 2013.

The conference is designed as a dialogue between musicology, art history and cultural history. A central theme will be how Britain and her people have been portrayed over the last century in various trends, spiritual movements and artistic styles, covering all kinds of arts, including music, literature, theatre, architecture, sculpture and cinematography. The symbolism of the homonyms – Britten and Britain – allows us to put the British Britten at the heart of the conference. Intercultural and intertextual connections will be made by reflecting the multifaceted phenomenon of "Britishness" in British culture.

The Conference forms part of the Thirteenth International Festival"The International Conservatory Week Festival", opening with a performance of one of Benjamin Britten's masterpieces, "Spring Symphony", on the 1st of November.

The Conference Organisers: The Center for New Technology in the Arts"Art-parkING", Liudmila Kovnatskaya, Mikhail Gantvarg, Lidia Volchek, Lidia Ader, Nataly Kolesova.

Proposals for academic papers and posters are invited (requirements – A3 format, should be sent by October 1st). The working languages of the conference will be Russian and English. The time-limit for papers is 20 minutes plus a discussion time of 10 minutes. Please submit abstracts for papers of no less than 200 and no more than 300 words, together with a short CV of 100 words; both should be sent by e-mail to Lidia Ader (lidia.ader at artparking.org).

The deadline for abstracts is 15 June 2013. Selected conference papers and materials will be published in the journal "Opera Musicologica".

For some participants organizers will be able to provide a free accommodation.

Parent Jean-Marie, Philojazz : Petites ritournelles entre souffle et pensée. L'Harmattan, Paris 2012 [223 p. ; ISBN 978-2-336-00635-2 ; 23,00  €]

 

Par Alain Lambert ——

« Philojazz », un titre intrigant quand on est soi même passionné par ces deux univers, a priori bien différents. Mais c'est la mode cette idée de faire de la philo à partir de tout sujet branché, le cinéma, les séries télé, le rock...  Pourquoi pas le jazz ?

Alors on lit, parfois intéressé, parfois agacé, cette étrange compilation de standards plus ou moins connus, un par chapitre, plus d'une vingtaine en tout, brossés en une page. Cette description musicale se prolonge, par association d'idées ou de mots, vers un des grands problèmes de l'histoire de la philosophie, traité lui en quelques pages, parfois quelques paragraphes, en convoquant les grands philosophes, mais aussi des peintres, poètes ou cinéastes...  Et le chapitre se referme en revenant au musicien choisi, sa biographie, son aura, ou encore l'instrument soliste, l'harmonica, le saxophone, la contrebasse ou le vibraphone ...
