Why does music stir our desires and enliven our emotions? Beyond hearing, how does it relate to our other senses? What does the existence of music suggest about human nature? And what does music even mean? Wayne Koestenbaum hints at answers to some of these questions in relation to the experience of hearing – and seeing – opera: “A singer’s voice sets up vibrations and resonances in the human body” (2001, 42). Indeed, the idea of music as a physical system of waves and vibrational sensations has inspired thinkers for millennia, from Pythagoras to the composer Jean-Philippe Rameau and beyond. So, too, of course, has the notion that music links directly to human passions and perhaps even our morality. Koestenbaum continues:
为什么音乐能激发我们的欲望,活跃我们的情绪?除了听觉,它与我们的其他感官有什么关系?音乐的存在对人性意味着什么?音乐到底意味着什么?Wayne Koestenbaum暗示了其中一些与听歌剧和看歌剧体验有关的问题的答案:“歌手的声音在人体中产生振动和共振”(2001,42)。事实上,从毕达哥拉斯到作曲家让-菲利普·拉莫,几千年来,音乐作为波浪和振动感觉的物理系统的想法一直激励着思想家。当然,音乐也与人类的激情,甚至可能与我们的道德直接相关。Koestenbaum继续说道:

“Had Sargent taken to music instead of painting he would have been as great a musician as he was a painter,” the violinist Joseph Joachim is claimed to have said of his friend, John Singer Sargent (1856-1925; as quoted in Charteris 1927, 137). If he had done so, many museums would be emptier for it. Sargent’s portraits of actors, writers, musicians, friends, and patrons fill many Western museums, such as the infamous Portrait of Madame X (1883-1884) in the Metropolitan Museum of Art or the vibrant Carmencita (1890) in the Musée d’Orsay. Yet the near-continual focus on portraiture in public exhibitions and most scholarship obscures Sargent’s multifaceted talents; he was equally proficient in watercolor, landscape, murals, drawings, and even prints like lithographs and monotypes. Of all his inspirations, his interest in music remains thoroughly under-researched, especially considering not only his active communication and friendship with prominent musicians and composers, but also his patronage of the composer Gabriel Fauré, his own musical abilities on the piano, and his frequent visits to café-concerts, music halls, and orchestral performances (Langley 2018). Music was part of Sargent’s identity as a painter throughout his life and career. In this essay I will focus on a number of Sargent’s depictions of orchestras and stage performances to determine what place these musical works held in his oeuvre. For Sargent’s emotional and sensuous connection with music instigated musical engagement at the visual level that resulted in imagery so evocative, imposing, and enigmatic that it warrants further investigation. It is with this in mind that I want to return to Sargent’s earlier years as a student in Paris, when he was only just developing his own style. Between 1874 and 1879, he was a pupil in the atelier of Charles Auguste Émile Durand, popularly known as Carolus-Duran, who provided a different approach to more conservative and neoclassical styles such as those popularized by Jean-Léon Gérôme. It was during this formative time that Sargent painted the orchestral rehearsals of the famous conductor Jules Pasdeloup (1819-1887) as they were held at the Cirque d’Hiver, or Winter Circus, in Paris (Bernard 1971). His impressions of Pasdeloup’s Concerts Populaires resulted in two nearly identical oil paintings, both entitled Rehearsal of the Pasdeloup Orchestra at the Cirque d’Hiver (both dated c. 1879). Sargent made both a monochromatic and a color version, held in the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, and the Art Institute of Chicago, respectively. In the
据称,小提琴家约瑟夫·约阿希姆(Joseph Joachim)曾这样评价他的朋友约翰·辛格·萨金特(John Singer Sargent, 1856-1925;引用自《宪章》1927年第137页)。如果他这样做了,许多博物馆将因此变得更空了。萨金特的演员、作家、音乐家、朋友和赞助人的肖像充斥着许多西方博物馆,比如大都会艺术博物馆臭名昭著的《X夫人的肖像》(1883-1884),或者奥赛穆斯海姆的《卡门西塔》(1890)。然而,在公共展览和大多数学术研究中,几乎持续不断地关注肖像画,掩盖了萨金特多方面的才能;他同样精通水彩画、风景画、壁画、素描,甚至是平版版画和单字版画。在他所有的灵感中,他对音乐的兴趣仍然没有得到充分的研究,特别是考虑到他不仅与著名音乐家和作曲家的积极交流和友谊,而且考虑到他对作曲家加布里埃尔·福尔的赞助,他自己的钢琴音乐能力,以及他经常参观卡姆萨伊姆音乐会,音乐厅和管弦乐演出(兰利2018)。音乐是萨金特一生和职业生涯中作为画家身份的一部分。在这篇文章中,我将集中讨论一些萨金特对管弦乐队和舞台表演的描述,以确定这些音乐作品在他的全部作品中所处的位置。因为萨金特与音乐的情感和感官联系在视觉层面上激发了音乐的参与,从而产生了如此令人回味的、令人印象深刻的和神秘的图像,值得进一步研究。带着这样的想法,我想回到萨金特早年在巴黎的学生时代,那时他才刚刚形成自己的风格。1874年至1879年间,他是查尔斯·奥古斯特·Émile杜兰德(Charles Auguste Durand)工作室的学生,杜兰德通常被称为卡罗尔-杜兰(Carolus-Duran),他为更保守和新古典主义风格提供了一种不同的方法,比如让-莱姆森Gérôme推广的那些风格。正是在这个形成时期,萨金特画了著名指挥家朱尔斯·帕斯德卢普(Jules Pasdeloup, 1819-1887)在巴黎冬季马戏团(Cirque d’hiver)举行的管弦乐队排练(Bernard 1971)。他对帕斯德鲁的《人民音乐会》的印象使他创作了两幅几乎一模一样的油画,都命名为《帕斯德鲁管弦乐队在希弗马戏团的排练》(都创作于1879年左右)。萨金特制作了单色版和彩色版,分别在波士顿美术博物馆和芝加哥艺术学院展出。在

mated status prized and precarious. In other words, immunocapital was much like other forms of capital in the nineteenth century, inherently suspect and unstable. Similarly, Necropolis and the nineteenth-century residents of New Orleans side-stepped the oft-discussed contagionist debates of the era by simply ignoring any attempt to stop the ailment. Not only did New Orleans refuse quarantine (the contagionist approach) and sanitation (the anticontagionists’ favorite) but ridiculed those who tried to avoid the presumably inevitable disease. Those with proven immunity could leave during the epidemics but those like newly-arrived Sylvester Larned in 1819 faced harsh criticism for attempting to avoid the disease by leaving and refusing to face acclimation (Olivarius 2022, 71–73). No white newcomer could truly become part of the city without accepting the rules of immunocapitalism: acclamation, resistance to structural improvement, and support of race-based slavery. Throughout the book Olivarius implicitly and explicitly tells her audience that yellow fever mattered deeply in New Orleans, shaped notions of belonging, and created racial categories. The threat of sickness or death, survival, and racialized experiences around the virus shaped the city and its society. Understanding the power of immunocapital in New Orleans matters not only to historians of medicine or public health, but to anyone who considers the role of the city, cotton, or slavery in American history. Moreover, her inclusion of individual stories, clear narration, and general lack of jargon makes it an excellent example of a book that can successfully be read across subfields.
配偶身份珍贵而不稳定。换言之,免疫资本与19世纪的其他形式的资本非常相似,本质上是可疑和不稳定的。同样,Necropolis和19世纪新奥尔良的居民无视任何阻止疾病的尝试,避开了那个时代经常讨论的传染病辩论。新奥尔良不仅拒绝隔离(传染主义方法)和卫生(反传染主义者的最爱),还嘲笑那些试图避免这种可能不可避免的疾病的人。那些被证明具有免疫力的人可以在疫情期间离开,但像1819年新来的西尔维斯特·拉内德这样的人,因为试图通过离开并拒绝适应环境来避免疾病而受到严厉批评(Olivarius 2022,71–73)。如果不接受免疫资本主义的规则:鼓掌、抵制结构改善和支持基于种族的奴隶制,任何白人新人都不可能真正成为这座城市的一部分。在整本书中,Olivarius含蓄而明确地告诉她的观众,黄热病在新奥尔良非常重要,塑造了归属观念,并创造了种族类别。疾病或死亡的威胁、生存以及围绕病毒的种族化经历塑造了这座城市及其社会。了解新奥尔良免疫资本的力量不仅对医学或公共卫生历史学家很重要,对任何考虑城市、棉花或奴隶制在美国历史上的作用的人也很重要。此外,她包含了个人故事、清晰的叙述和普遍缺乏行话,这使她成为一本可以跨子领域成功阅读的书的优秀例子。

Jesse Shepard’s sensational musical séances: psychical waves, hypnotic timbres, and the Spiritualist sensorium 杰西·谢泼德的轰动音乐:精神波,催眠音色,和唯灵论的感觉

One of the newly emerging areas of study in nineteenth-century Spiritualism centers on music and the sensory experiences generated by spirit-played instruments and attendee singing during séances (Ostrowski 2019; Raz 2021; Spinner 2021). Undoubtedly, the most remarkable of all musical Spiritualists was the enigmatic and sensational pianist/ vocalist christened Benjamin Henry Jesse Francis Shepard (1848–1927), known most famously as either Jesse Shepard or Francis Grierson, the latter bearing his mother’s maiden name which he assumed when undertaking a literary career in 1897. Shepard performed widely throughout Europe, America, and Australia in a period running from the late 1860s to his final return to the United States in 1913. The most thorough account of Shepard’s worldly excursions, the mansion built for him by Spiritualists in San Diego, and the favors he received from European royalty can be found in various works of the late Harold P. Simonson (1926–2011), the foremost Shepardian scholar (Simonson 1958, 1960, 1966). Though relatively forgotten today, Shepard was well known in his time as an astonishing pianist who allegedly played and sang through the psychical inspiration of deceased composers and operatic singers. Whether in Europe or America, Shepard stunned the small audiences that he preferred to perform before with musicales (i.e. musical performances generally held at private residences) never before witnessed, producing through a vocal range of high soprano to deep bass an eerie room-filling choral assemblage generating intensely vivid sensory impressions while his handsome features, curly locks, and long slender hands caused much comment and cross-gender admiration. David Howes and Constance Classen, among a number of scholars engaged in sensory studies, have explored the nature of sensation and the ways it relates to individual lives, social groups, and the wider culture through a probing analysis centered on the sensorium (Howes and Classen 2014). The sensorium can be understood as an assemblage of humans, non-humans, things, and atmospheres – a series of interconnected interior/ exterior, subjective/objective, intersensory stimuli affecting embodied humans either in solitary or collective settings. Viewed in this sense as a holistic system of synaesthetic perception, David Howes considers the sensorium to be a conceivably larger formulation than the mere sum of the five senses while others further indicate that spiritual and intuitive senses must be considered when exploring cultures of Spiritualist artistic sensoriums (Howes 2017, 165; 2019, 20; Fisher and 2006; McDaniel 2011; Fritz 2012).

十九世纪唯灵论的一个新出现的研究领域集中在音乐和由灵魂演奏的乐器和观众在音乐会上唱歌产生的感官体验上(Ostrowski 2019;Raz 2021;Spinner 2021)。毫无疑问,所有音乐精神主义者中最杰出的是神秘而轰动的钢琴家/声乐家,名叫本杰明·亨利·杰西·弗朗西斯·谢泼德(1848-1927),最著名的名字是杰西·谢泼德或弗朗西斯·格里森,后者的娘家姓是他1897年从事文学事业时取的。从19世纪60年代末到1913年最后一次返回美国,谢泼德在欧洲、美国和澳大利亚进行了广泛的表演。关于谢泼德的世界之旅、精神主义者在圣地亚哥为他建造的豪宅,以及他从欧洲皇室那里得到的好处,最全面的描述可以在已故谢泼德最重要的学者哈罗德·P·西蒙森(1926–2011)的各种作品中找到(西蒙森1958、1960、1966)。尽管今天相对被遗忘,但谢泼德在他那个时代是一位令人惊叹的钢琴家,据称他是通过已故作曲家和歌剧歌手的精神灵感来演奏和演唱的。无论是在欧洲还是美国,谢泼德都用从未见过的音乐剧(即通常在私人住宅举行的音乐表演)震惊了他以前喜欢表演的小观众,通过高音到低音的声乐范围,产生了一个充满怪诞房间的合唱组合,产生了极其生动的感官印象,修长的双手引起了许多评论和跨性别的钦佩。在众多从事感官研究的学者中,David Howes和Constance Classen通过以感官为中心的探索性分析,探索了感觉的本质及其与个人生活、社会群体和更广泛文化的关系(Howes和Classen,2014)。感官可以被理解为人类、非人类、事物和氛围的集合——一系列相互关联的内部/外部、主观/客观、感官间刺激,在孤独或集体的环境中影响具体的人类。从这个意义上看,它是一个整体的通感系统,David Howes认为感官是一个比五种感官的总和更大的公式,而其他人则进一步指出,在探索精神主义艺术感官的文化时,必须考虑精神和直觉(Howes 2017165;2019,20;Fisher和2006;McDaniel 2011;Fritz 2012)。使用

Ladies’ orchestras and music-as-performance in fin-de-siècle Britain 女子管弦乐队和音乐在英国的演出

ABSTRACT This article traces the emergence of a curious musical phenomenon in fin-de-siècle Britain: the ladies’ orchestra. As British music conservatories began to open to women in the 1870s and 1880s, and the violin gradually became a more “acceptable” instrument for women to play, ladies’ orchestras offered female musicians – still excluded from the country’s major symphony orchestras – opportunities to perform in public and sometimes even earn a living. Analyzing responses to ladies’ orchestras in the British periodical press, this article shows that ladies’ orchestras invited Victorian audiences to think about classical music in new ways.

摘要:本文追溯了一个奇怪的音乐现象——英国女子管弦乐队的出现。随着英国音乐学院在19世纪70年代和80年代开始向女性开放,小提琴逐渐成为一种更被女性“接受”的乐器,女子乐团为女性音乐家提供了在公共场合表演的机会,有时甚至可以谋生,而这些女性音乐家仍然被排除在国家主要交响乐团之外。本文分析了英国期刊媒体对女子乐团的反应,表明女子乐团让维多利亚时代的观众以新的方式思考古典音乐。女子乐团,虽然小众,但从根本上改变了乐团音乐会的感官体验,将其从一个以“音乐本身”为中心的古板,庄严的事件转变为一个多感官的奇观,完成了五颜六色的服装,令人眼花缭乱的舞台设置,以及音乐活力和激情的动态展示。女子乐团采用了音乐学家现在所说的“以表演为基础”的方法,这种方法与古典音乐的空间、时间、感官、动觉和情感维度相协调。

As British music conservatories began to open to women in the 1870s and 1880s, and the violin gradually became a more “acceptable” instrument for women to play, ladies’ orchestras offered female musicians – still excluded from the country’s major symphony orchestras – opportunities to perform in public and sometimes even earn a living. Analyzing responses to ladies’ orchestras in the British periodical press, this article shows that ladies’ orchestras invited Victorian audiences to think about classical music in new ways. Ladies’ orchestras, though niche, fundamentally shifted the sensual experience of the orchestra concert, transforming it from a staid, solemn event centered on “the music itself” to a multisensorial spectacle, complete with colorful costumes, dazzling stage settings, and dynamic displays of musical vigor and passion.

for example, a psychology article or literary analysis. The claim that, for ToM, mental states are propositional is most obviously mistaken in those cases where our understanding of other people’s minds is spontaneous and simulative rather than effortful and inferential. This in turn brings us to perhaps the central problem with Walser’s treatment of ToM. She fails to distinguish its components and varieties. The most fundamental of these divisions is between ToM inference and ToM simulation. A number of Walser’s criticisms apply solely to the former, if they apply at all. Walser also repeatedly refers to heuristics that we employ in ToM. Though she is not entirely clear about her understanding of heuristics, it is undoubtedly the case that we do use heuristics. But they are important primarily in spontaneous ToM responses. Effortful inference can be a straightforward matter of logical entailment. Other distinctions concern whether the ToM addresses information processing or emotion; personality/disposition, affective state (e.g., mood), or situation (and so on) – all of which bear in some way on Walser’s claims. Of course, readers ofWalser’s book are likely to be particularly interested in her treatment of the literaryworks. Here, too, there are recurring problems, related to her concernwith debunking ToM. For one thing, she often fails to consider alternatives that are prima facie more plausible. For example, she discusses a recurring motif in Charles Brockden Brown, where characters expect to find crucial information inside of some container, but open the container and find nothing of value. I suppose this could be a criticism of the container metaphor of mind, but – based on Walser’s evidence – it could equally be a comment on materialism (one doesn’t find motives as such when one looks in a brain), or free will, or something else. But of course there is more to Walser’s book than I have suggested. I began by saying that most literary readers will react very differently than I have. Literary critics are particularly likely to find her literary analyses rewarding. Indeed, even partisans of ToM will – rightly – find many of her literary observations genuinely illuminating, particularly in her discussion of Harriet Beecher Stowe.
例如心理学文章或文学分析。对于ToM来说,心理状态是命题的说法在我们对他人心理的理解是自发和模拟的,而不是努力和推理的情况下是最明显的错误。这反过来又把我们带到了沃尔瑟对待ToM的核心问题上。她无法区分其成分和品种。这些划分中最基本的是ToM推理和ToM模拟。沃尔瑟的一些批评只适用于前者,如果它们适用的话。Walser还反复提到我们在ToM中使用的启发式方法。尽管她并不完全清楚自己对启发式的理解,但毫无疑问,我们确实使用了启发式。但它们主要在自发的ToM反应中很重要。费力的推理可以是一个直接的逻辑蕴涵问题。其他区别涉及ToM是否涉及信息处理或情感;性格/性格、情感状态(如情绪)或情境(等等)——所有这些都在某种程度上与沃尔瑟的主张有关。当然,沃尔瑟这本书的读者可能会对她处理文学作品的方式特别感兴趣。在这里,也有一些反复出现的问题,与她对揭露ToM的担忧有关。首先,她经常不考虑表面上看起来更合理的替代方案。例如,她讨论了查尔斯·布罗克登·布朗中反复出现的一个主题,在这个主题中,角色希望在某个容器中找到关键信息,但打开容器却一无所获。我想这可能是对心理容器隐喻的批评,但基于沃尔瑟的证据,它同样可能是对物质主义(当你在大脑中观察时,你不会发现动机)、自由意志或其他东西的评论。当然,沃尔瑟的书比我所说的要多得多。我首先说,大多数文学读者的反应与我截然不同。文学评论家尤其可能发现她的文学分析是有收获的。事实上,即使是托姆的党派人士也会——理所当然地——发现她的许多文学观察真的很有启发性,尤其是在她对哈里特·比彻·斯托的讨论中。
