Pablo De Sarasate And His Magic Flute Fantasy: A Performer's Analysis And Performance Guide, Long Long Kang Nov 2015

Pablo De Sarasate And His Magic Flute Fantasy: A Performer's Analysis And Performance Guide, Long Long Kang

Electronic Theses and Dissertations Archive

Pablo de Sarasate (1844-1908) was one of the most important violinists of the nineteenth century, elevating the technical standards of violin playing to a new level. He also composed some of today’s most popular virtuoso violin pieces, including Zigeunerweisen and the Carmen Fantasy, which display a unique musical personality. However, besides these few extremely popular pieces, the rest of his music has been largely forgotten over the years. In particular, Sarasate composed several operatic fantasies, which deserve to be heard by modern audiences. This project focuses on Sarasate’s Magic Flute Fantasy, culminating in a performance guide drawing on Sarasate’s artistry, …

The Mechanisms Of Moral Disengagement In George W. Bush’S “War On Terror” Rhetoric, Stefan Cartledge, Lorraine Bowman-Grieve, Marek Palasinski Nov 2015

The Mechanisms Of Moral Disengagement In George W. Bush’S “War On Terror” Rhetoric, Stefan Cartledge, Lorraine Bowman-Grieve, Marek Palasinski

The Qualitative Report

Despite considerable literature on the Bush administration’s war on terrorism rhetoric, little attention has been paid to its discourse of moral disengagement, leaving an important and still relevant gap that this paper aims to address. Rather than approaching this gap in terms of an archival historical analysis that is disconnected from the present, it proposes an exploratory revisit of the rhetoric that the benefits of hindsight might enrich and, we argue, aid in understanding connections to the current post-invasion turmoil and the gradual ISIS takeover. Having subjected nineteen presidential speeches to qualitative content analysis, we identified a number of moral …
