This collection of new interviews with twenty-five accomplished female composers substantially advances our knowledge of the work, experiences, compositional approaches, and musical intentions of a diverse group of creative individuals. With personal anecdotes and sometimes surprising intimacy and humor, these wide-ranging conversations represent the diversity of women composing music in the United States from the mid-twentieth century into the twenty-first. The composers work in a variety of genres including classical, jazz, multimedia, or collaborative forms for the stage, film, and video games. Their interviews illuminate questions about the status of women composers in America, the role of women in musical performance and education, the creative process and inspiration, the experiences and qualities that contemporary composers bring to their craft, and balancing creative and personal lives. Candidly sharing their experiences, advice, and views, these vibrant, thoughtful, and creative women open new perspectives on the prospects and possibilities of making music in a changing world.

Vitruvius survives 1 to this day not only as the author of a Magno treatise on architecture, one of the few scientific and historical documents referring to the art of construction that has survived the shipwreck of classical treatises, but also as an outstanding representative of the art of build during the Roman Empire in the time of Augustus. We could rightly add that his legacy transcends the boundaries of time and enshrines him as the teacher of generations, a tradition that has persisted through the centuries. His work not only provides a valuable compendium of architectural knowledge and design principles, but also serves as a lasting testament to the aesthetic and functional ideals that have influenced architecture throughout history. The applicability of his 1 Marcus Vitruvius Pollio (Latin Marcus Vitruvius Pollio; c. 80 BC-70 BC-15 BC) was a Roman architect, writer, engineer, and treatise writer of the 1st century BC. c. Página 1 de 791 Life and work of Marcus Vitruvius principles throughout the ages underscores the universality and temporality of his teachings. “The work itself also provides the only clues to its dating: based on information about individual Roman buildings, the beginning of the composition can be dated to 33 BC. BC. Thus, Vitruvius stands not only as an exponent of classical antiquity, but also as an enduring guide in the art of construction, whose teachings continue to inspire architects and builders throughout the ages. His legacy encompasses not only architectural technique, but also the very essence of the art of building, transcending temporal barriers and enriching our understanding of creativity and engineering in construction. The era of Vitruvius and the transition from the Roman Republic to the Empire. The birth name of the man who would later be known as Augustus was Gaius Octavius (Gaius Octavius). According to Suetonius, he initially bore the nickname Turinus, although there is no additional documentation of this. Cassius Dion mentions the name Caipias as another nickname for Augustus, although it has been little noticed. After being adopted Página 2 de 791 Life and work of Marcus Vitruvius testamentarily by Caesar in 44 BC, he officially adopted the name C. Iulius Caesar, or in its full form with filiation, Gaius Iulius C. f. Caesar, 44 BC The young Octavian became Julius Caesar's heir after his assassination in 44 BC. C. A year later, in 43 BC. c. A year later, in 43 BC, Octavian, along with Mark Antony and Lepidus, established a military dictatorship known as the Second Triumvirate. In his role as triumvir, Octavian exercised control over Rome and most of its provinces, adopting an autocratic approach. He secured consular power after the deaths of the consuls Aulus Hirtius and Gaius Vibius Pansa, in addition to being re-elected each year. Over time, the triumvirate began to fall apart due to the individual ambitions of its members: Lepidus was forced into exile, and Mark Antony ended up committing suicide after his defeat at the naval battle of Actium by Octavian's fleet, commanded by Agrippa, in 31 BC Vitruvius lived in a time characterized by constant political turmoil. After long decades of internal conflict, Rome was undergoing the transformation from a republic to what we now recognize as the Roman Empire. In this period of Página 3 de 791 Life and work of Marcus Vitruvius change, new social strata emerged, accessing positions of power to which they previously did not have access. With the dissolution of the Second Triumvirate, Octavian undertook the restoration of republican principles, reestablishing governmental power in the Senate. However, in practice, he retained significant autocratic power. It took several years to determine the precise structure by which a republican entity could be led by a single ruler, and the end result was known as the Principality. Unlike the Roman dictatorship of the Republic, which figures such as Caesar and Sulla had held in the past, the imperial title was not considered an office of the same nature. Augustus formally rejected this title after Roman society "begged him to assume the dictatorship."

This extract from Ovid's 'Theban History' recounts the confrontation of Pentheus, king of Thebes, with his divine cousin, Bacchus, the god of wine. Notwithstanding the warnings of the seer Tiresias and the cautionary tale of a character Acoetes (perhaps Bacchus in disguise), who tells of how the god once transformed a group of blasphemous sailors into dolphins, Pentheus refuses to acknowledge the divinity of Bacchus or allow his worship at Thebes. Enraged, yet curious to witness the orgiastic rites of the nascent cult, Pentheus conceals himself in a grove on Mt. Cithaeron near the locus of the ceremonies. But in the course of the rites he is spotted by the female participants who rush upon him in a delusional frenzy, his mother and sisters in the vanguard, and tear him limb from limb.The episode abounds in themes of abiding interest, not least the clash between the authoritarian personality of Pentheus, who embodies 'law and order', masculine prowess, and the martial ethos of his city, and Bacchus, a somewhat effeminate god of orgiastic excess, who revels in the delusional and the deceptive, the transgression of boundaries, and the blurring of gender distinctions.This course book offers a wide-ranging introduction, the original Latin text, study aids with vocabulary, and an extensive commentary. Designed to stretch and stimulate readers, Gildenhard and Zissos's incisive commentary will be of particular interest to students of Latin at AS and undergraduate level. It extends beyond detailed linguistic analysis to encourage critical engagement with Ovid's poetry and discussion of the most recent scholarly thought.
