| ARTICLES RELATED TO dramatic | | | | |  dramatic: Encyclopedia II - Franz Grillparzer - AssessmentAlthough Grillparzer was essentially a dramatist, his lyric poetry is in the intensity of its personal note hardly inferior to Lenau's; and the bitterness of his later years found vent in biting and stinging epigrams that spared few of his greater contemporaries. As a prose writer, he has left one powerful short story, Der arme Spielmann (1848), and a volume of critical studies on the Spanish drama, which shows how completely he had succeeded in ide ...

| | | | | dramatic: Encyclopedia II - Aesthetics - Aesthetics in the Arts
Aesthetics - Visual arts.
The field of aesthetics has enjoyed a rebirth in recent years. Modern art, particularly post-WWII up through the 1980s, in fact strongly reacted against notions of beauty. Some theorists (Hal Foster) have described this as an "anti-aesthetic." As media such as painting were deconstructed and explored to their very foundational or essential elements, creating an aesthetically beautiful work was no longer the key. Instead, artists focused on conceptual questions such as 'what is art?' or ' ...

| | | | | dramatic: Encyclopedia II - Comic strip - Social and political influence The comics have long held a distorted mirror to contemporary society, and almost from the beginning have been used for political or social commentary. This ranged from the staunch conservative values of Little Orphan Annie to the unabashed liberalism of Doonesbury. The aforementioned Pogo used animals to particularly devastating effect, caricaturing many prominent politicians of the day as animal denizens of Pogo's Okeefenokee Swamp. In a fearless move, Pogo's creator Walt Kelly took on Joseph McCarthy in the 1950s, cari ...

Opera - Origins.
The word opera means simply "work" in Italian, coming from the Latin, the plural of opus suggesting that it combines the arts of solo & choral singing declamation, and dancing in a staged spectacle. The earliest work considered an opera in the currently used sense of the word dates from around 1597. It is Dafne, (now lost) written by Jacopo Peri largely under the inspiration of an elite circle of literate Florentine humanists who gathered as the "Camerata". Significantl ...

| | | | | dramatic: Encyclopedia II - Baghdad - History The city of Baghdad is often said to have been founded on the west bank of the Tigris on 30 July 762 by the Abbasid dynasty, led by caliph al-Mansur; however, the city of Baghdad is mentioned in pre-Islamic texts, including the Talmud. Thus Baghdad was probably built on the site of this earlier Persian city. The word "bagh" in Persian means "garden" and the word "dad" in Persian means "given"; so it most likely represented a very beautiful and pleasant city hence the word garden given by God. This city replaced Ctesiphon, the capital of the ...
