In spite of being viewed as a young writer until the ’90s, Stanley Péan is now known as one of the most distinctive and established voices in the Haitian-Canadian literary scene. The pivotal moment in his career happened in 1996, when Zombi Blues was published. This novel displays a cultural space in which Haitian traditions and Canadian modernity converge and allow intercultural exchange to take place. Drawing from this perspective, the following article aims to analyse how Péan creates a fictional universe through the blending of cultural elements. Using the collection of myths and beliefs that permeate the Haitian and African cultural panorama as a reference point, we will investigate the ways in which Péan adapted and transposed these traditions to the Haitian diasporic context. Particular attention will be given to the use of jazz and African American music, as well as to the reinterpretation of mythological creatures such as the zombie and the marasa twins. Hence, the article tries to show how Péan’s cultural crossroad contributes to the foundation of a new literary interpretation of Haitianity.

The central aim of this paper is to show the similarities of some stylistic features of A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man with musical code. A second purpose is to verify how these musical features are echoed in “Sirens”. In order to initially describe the common properties of language and music and to define how their acoustic and rhythmic similarities are relevant in written texts, the paper will draw on the theories of the Science of Rhythm – a non-academic discipline that has influenced many modernist writings, and also studied the common rhythmic features of music and language. After detailing a musical method for the analysis of the linguistic texture of written prose, I focus on the first chapter of A Portrait. Hence, I identify the musical characteristics of the novel’s style through a comparison between some Joycean scholars’ theories on music in A Portrait and the principles of the Science of Rhythm. Finally, a few examples of the musical language in “Sirens” will provide a benchmark for a comparison with A Portrait.

The Teatrino del Mondo of Aldo Rossi, a performance space set on a barge that could be reached by boat (1979-80), became an iconic metaphor for the first Venetian Biennale of Architecture. At the Venetian Biennale of Architecture 2018, this metaphorical representation was engaged by Caribbean contemporary poets Lasana M. Sekou and Charles Matz II and visual artists Cozbi Sanchez Cabrera and Jean-Ulrick Désert. In exploring ties that link the vessels of Caribbean contemporary literature and art to Venice, witness is the audacity of their opera, created while confronting intensifying natural disasters such as earthquakes and hurricanes, and recalling horrifying unnatural conditions of Slavery and war. The artists participated in collateral events in which poetry or visual art intersected marvellously with Venetian idioms.
阿尔多·罗西(Aldo Rossi)的蒙多剧院(Teatrino del Mondo)是一个位于驳船上的表演空间,可以乘船到达(1979-80),成为第一届威尼斯建筑双年展的标志性隐喻。在2018年威尼斯建筑双年展上,加勒比当代诗人Lasana M. Sekou和Charles Matz II以及视觉艺术家Cozbi Sanchez Cabrera和Jean-Ulrick d塞特(Jean-Ulrick d塞特)参与了这种隐喻性的表现。在探索加勒比当代文学和艺术的船只与威尼斯之间的联系时,见证了他们的歌剧的大胆,他们在面对地震和飓风等日益严重的自然灾害时创作,并回顾了奴隶制和战争的恐怖自然条件。艺术家们参加了诗歌或视觉艺术与威尼斯习语奇妙地交织在一起的附带活动。

The music for The Crown of India was written by Edward Elgar in 1912 to accompany an ‘Imperial Masque’ with a libretto by Henry Hamilton. The impresario Sir Oswald Stoll had commissioned Elgar to compose the Masque music for the lavish celebration of the coronation of King George V as Emperor of India as part of a larger entertainment in the Coliseum Theatre in St. Martin’s Lane. The Masque was part of an ample music-hall programme, involving shows as different as mime, pantomime and music. Elgar’s ‘Imperial Masque’ was meant to be an assertion of the British Empire, bringing to the London stage the crucial political happenings behind all the pageantry of the Delhi Durbar for the crowning of George V as Emperor of India in December 1911. This event had marked the climax of the only royal tour of India undertaken by a reigning King-Emperor and had caused much public excitement in England. The Durbar ceremony itself was an adaptation of a court ritual of the Mogul Empire, an event where the ruling princes used to meet to discuss politics and legislative changes. To listen to works such as Elgar’s The Crown of India (Opus 66), it is necessary to acknowledge that at the beginning of the 20th century the British nation believed in the Empire and in its concept.
《印度王冠》的音乐是爱德华·埃尔加在1912年为亨利·汉密尔顿的歌剧《帝国假面舞会》创作的。乐队经理奥斯瓦尔德·斯托尔爵士委托埃尔加为乔治五世加冕为印度皇帝的盛大庆祝活动创作《假面》音乐,这是圣马丁巷Coliseum剧院大型娱乐活动的一部分。假面舞会是一个丰富的音乐厅节目的一部分,包括哑剧、哑剧和音乐等不同的表演。埃尔加的《帝国假面》意在彰显大英帝国的地位,将1911年12月乔治五世加冕为印度皇帝的德里杜巴(Delhi Durbar)盛况背后的重大政治事件搬上伦敦舞台。这一事件标志着唯一一次由在位皇帝对印度进行的王室访问达到了高潮,并在英国引起了公众的极大兴奋。杜巴仪式本身是改编自莫卧儿帝国的宫廷仪式,这是一个统治王子聚会讨论政治和立法变化的事件。听埃尔加的《印度王冠》(The Crown of India, 66号作品)这样的作品,有必要承认,在20世纪初,大英民族相信帝国及其概念。
