Lyrica Society Bi-Annual Scholarly Papers Competition

Studying the interaction of words and music is central to understanding the relationship between art, the self, and society. Scholarly investigation of the myriad possible interrelations remains an indispensable tool in this pursuit.

The Lyrica Society for Word-Music Relations is pleased to announce its first bi-annual Scholarly Papers Competition, 2006, for outstanding scholarly papers on a theme related to any interrelationship between words and music.

Prizes

Two prizes of $500 will be awarded. They honor two revered scholars:
The Louis Auld Prize honors Lyrica's founder, an eminent scholar of French literature; The Isabelle Cazeaux Prize honors the Grande Dame of American musicology.

Conference on Musical Aesthetics

UNIVERSIT� MARC-BLOCH (STRASBOURG)

Call for Papers

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE

Methods and Perspectives of Musical Aesthetics: Theory and History

Strasbourg, Palais Universitaire, 18-19 Novembre 2005

Organized by the Music Department, Universit� Marc-Bloch (Strasbourg, France, http://umb.u-strasbg.fr/musique), and the Arts Faculty Research Centre "Approches contemporaines de la cr�ation et de la r�flexion artistiques" (EA 3402), in collaboration with the Music Department of the University of Pavia in Cremona (Italy)

Conference Organizer: Alessandro Arbo (UMB, Strasbourg)

Today the term "musical aesthetics" refers to a range of studies with different goals and orientations: from the examination of the way in which the music is perceived and evaluated as an objet sensible, to the interpretation of the connections of a political or social nature that such a musical work possesses, as much during the act of composition as at its reception, to the design of a philosophy of music. The aim of this conference is to explore the different ways to conceive the aesthetical argument drawing on the contribution of disciplines as psychology, semiotics, phenomenology, hermeneutics, philosophy of language, theory and history of ideas. Some questions to debate:
1) Musical aesthetics as general knowledge or as aesthetics of a particular repertoire
2) To what extent does musical analysis belong to aesthetics research?
3) Can musical aesthetics be considered as hermeneutics?
4) Description or evaluation of the musical work?
5) What are the problems raised by the conception of aesthetics as the history of ideas pertaining to music?
6) What are the criteria for the scientific legitimization of a musical aesthetics discourse?
7) Up to what point should aesthetics take emotion into consideration?

The official languages of the Conference are French, English, German and Italian. We welcome proposals for individual papers in the form of an abstract of 500-700 words accompanied by a short CV. Papers will be limited to a duration of 30�. There will be a publication of the proceedings of the Conference.
Postmark deadline: 15 June 2005

Proposals for papers should be sent to the following address:

Alessandro Arbo

The competition is open to Italian or foreign scholars.

The competition is intended for research projects to be completed between September 2006 and the Spring of 2008; the prize consists of Euro 10.330,00 to be paid after the work is completed (interim payments up to a maximum of 50% of the total prize may be granted). The scholar must consign the completed work no later than 31 May 2008 for approval by the Advisory Board of the Institute. Once the text has Board approval for publication, the remaining part of the prize will be paid by 31 December 2008. In no way should the prize be understood as an all-inclusive scholarship.

Entry to the competition will be through the presentation of a detailed proposal (accompanied by a curriculum vitae), specifying the subject matter and the research materials the scholar intends to use.

The panel which will evaluate the research projects will consist of the Acting President (or an authorized representative) of the Rotary Club of Parma, the Director of the cultural activities of the Istituto nazionale di studi verdiani Foundation, and another person chosen by agreement between these two.

In evaluating the projects, the panel will take into account, in order of importance:

- the originality of the research project;

- the feasibility of completing the project within the time limits stated above;

- the academic qualifications of the proposer.

All other matters being equal, the panel will give preference to a project which involves research into documentary material which is unpublished or, at least, not presently available at the Istituto nazionale di studi verdiani Foundation.
