Guillaume de Machaut: Scribe, Poet, Composer

该项目的重点_纪尧姆德Machaut：抄写员，诗人，作曲家_是一个非常重要的中世纪晚期的人物，其艺术作品从根本上是跨学科的。他的作品包括叙事诗、歌词、歌曲、经文歌和普通大众的音乐背景，所有这些都记录在华丽的插图手稿中，手稿的汇编和排版可能也是作者艺术视野的结果。因此，纪尧姆·马肖（Guillaume Machaut，约1300 -1377年）是一个特殊的试验场，它发展了一种多维的解释方法，汇集了几个现代学术学科。这样一个项目的利润从以前优秀的专业奖学金，但它汇集了不同的学科照亮Machaut的工作在一个独特的跨学科的光。由此产生的专着将兴趣音乐学家，文学学者（在中世纪的法语和英语特别），历史学家的书，社会和文化历史学家的中世纪后期。该项目提供了深入了解Machaut对书籍制作的关注是如何症状化的，并进一步影响了中世纪后期越来越多的文本。它结合了文学，语言学，音乐理论，音乐分析，材料和书目的角度来创建一个更完整的图片这十四世纪的文化生活的中心人物。它将Machaut的工作与宫廷文化的其他方面联系起来，包括伦理学，作为理解其意义和功能的一种方式。它提供了一种新的阅读中世纪歌曲的模式，更充分地考虑到它们的音乐和诗歌结构，并适当注意它们在更广泛的文学和音乐文化中的背景，这些文化既是书面/文本的，也是口头/表演的。它还提出了一个批评的现代重新发现Machaut的工作，以提高我们的理解他的中世纪的重要性，剥离了混淆后来的接受历史。该专着将是第一个完整的长度研究，考虑在他适当的跨学科背景下Machaut。

The focus of the project _Guillaume de Machaut: Scribe, Poet, Composer_ is an extremely important late-medieval figure whose artistic output is fundamentally interdisciplinary. His works include narrative poetry, lyrics, songs, motets, and a musical setting of the mass ordinary, all recorded in sumptuously illustrated manuscripts whose compilation and mise-en-page were probably also the result of the author's artistic vision. In this way, Guillaume Machaut (c.1300-1377) functions as an exceptional test site for the development of a multi-dimensional interpretative method that brings together several modern scholarly disciplines. Such a project profits from previous excellent specialist scholarship, but its bringing together of different disciplines illuminates Machaut's work in a distinctively interdisciplinary light. The resulting monograph will interest musicologists, literary scholars (in medieval French and English particularly), historians of the book, and social and cultural historians of the later Middle Ages. The project offers insights into the way in which Machaut's attention to book-making was symptomatic of, and further influential on, the increasing textuality of the later Middle Ages. It combines literary, linguistic, music-theoretical, music-analytical, material, and bibliographic perspectives to create a more complete picture of this central figure of fourteenth-century cultural life. It relates Machaut's work to other aspects of court culture, including ethics, as a way of understanding its meanings and function for his contemporaries. It offers a new mode of reading medieval songs that takes a fuller account of their musical and poetic structures, as well as paying due attention to their context within broader literary and musical cultures that are both written/textual and oral/performative. It also presents a critique of the modern rediscovery of Machaut's work in order to improve our understanding of his medieval importance, stripped of the obfuscations of later reception history. The monograph will be the first full-length study to consider Machaut in his proper interdisciplinary context.
