The “doctrine of affections” is a legendary creature created by early-20th-century German musicologists: its head is made of prescriptive treatises and its body of descriptive compositions. The term has however entered scholarly parlance and is commonly used to refer to a cluster of theorizations and compositional strategies that shared a common aim: emphasizing the affective dimension of music in order to move the listener. The “doctrine of affections” derives its name from the German term Affektenlehre and it lived its golden age in the Baroque era (see the Oxford Bibliographies article on Baroque Music and its section “Music-Theoretical Issues”). It merges a renewed humanistic interest in the ars rhetorica, ensued to the rediscovery of texts such as Quintilian’s Institutio Oratoria during the 15th century, with an interest in the mechanics of the passions, fostered by Descartes’ Passions de l’âme (1649). The power of music to raise or soothe the passions had already been discussed by philosophers such as Plato and Aristotle (the latter’s theory of catharsis proving especially successful during the Renaissance), and in some sense “doctrines of affections” have often accompanied the history of thinking about music and its effects. However the “doctrine of affections” stricto sensu is tied to the revival of doctrines of musical ethos by the humanists, in combination with medical elements derived from galenic temperament theory and with the idea of musica humana derived from Boethius (Ficino’s theories being a notable example of this combination). Baroque doctrines of affections, while deriving some themes—such as the link between modes and affects—from these former traditions, modified their gravity center. From a Renaissance medical model interested in the bodily transformations induced by music, the focus shifts to a rhetorical model interested in producing determinate effects on the listeners in the orator’s mode. During the 16th and 17th centuries, from the philosophical upsurge of interest in passions themselves and in their communicability and from the coeval transformations in musical compositional techniques, a renovated rhetorical discourse on affective music and its relation to the poetical texts was drafted. Drawing on the speculations of authors like Descartes, Mersenne, and Kircher, 18th-century theorists tried to single out the affective power of modes and figures, albeit without creating universal theories. These musico-rhetorical theories dawned when a new way of addressing the world of the passions and affections was devised later in the 18th century.

Problem statement. Contemporary art space creates special conditions for the functioning of the classical musical heritage. The principle of the classics, which results in the formation of certain ideas about the criteria of the “reference” work and the ways of interaction with it undergoes a radical transformation. The turn of the XX and XXI centuries became a time of experiments, including experimental dialogues of the contemporary artists with the classical artistic artifacts. The relevance of the study is due to the growing scientific interest in the specifics of the implementation of contemporary art projects. The scientific novelty of the article is connected with the attempt to analytically comprehend the process of actualization of classical musical works in the conditions of the modern artistic environment. Theoretical Background. In the context of our study, the views of P. Sloterdijk (1986) on the autonomy impossibility of the classical text and the study of U. Eco (1986), focused on the dynamism of the artistic universe of the postmodern era and the multiplicity of its possible interpretations, are recognized as the most essential. Objectives. The purpose of this study is to reveal the specifics of the actualization of classical heritage in contemporary art projects (based on “Quando ci risvegliamo” by S. Sciarrino, presented at the Beethoven Festival in Bonn, 2015). Results and Discussion. The specifics of creative rethinking of L. van Beethoven’s works, done by contemporary European composers (S. Sciarrino, H. Dufourt, V. Tarnopolsky, B. Lang, E. Poppe) during the European cycle of the Beethoven Festival (2015–2019) are analyzed. The content of the multi-layered work “Quando ci risvegliamo” by S. Sciarrino’s is revealed as it is caused by the allusions to Fantasia for piano, soloists, choir and orchestra Op. 80 by L. van Beethoven and the symbolic drama “Når vi døde vågner” (“When We Dead Awaken”) by H. Ibsen. The interaction between the texts takes place on a structural, symbolic and semantic levels. The space of silence on the imaginary border of sleep and awakening, modeled by S. Sciarrino in “Quando ci risvegliamo”, builds cross-cultural connotations, appealing at the same time to the work of the German composer and the Norwegian playwright. Conclusions. The conclusion on the actualization of the classical text in the conditions of the modern art environment at the expense of employment of other classical texts is made. It is noted that the appropriate level of cultural training and experience in perception of artistic texts, expected from the hypothetical recipients, should allow them to perceive the cultural and artistic connotations of the new work, which are included in the hypertext of postmodernism.

e contemporary Bulgarian composer Nikolay Stoykov is extremely attached to the image world of the Bulgarian musical folklore. Colorful as an author, he reconsiders and liberates authentic folk material with modern compositional language and thus breaks the traditional boundaries of musical structures. The subject of my monograph1 was the questions related to the artistic imagery in the choir work of Nikolay Stoykov and the original composer techniques usedby the author. While I was researching and writing about the rich heritage of the composer – about 100 opuses, I encountered various unique and turning points of his life. Stoykov was taught composition by the unsurpassed Pancho Vladigerov. I thought this was the most important fact that largely influenced and shaped his compositional style. In one of the chapters of themonographic survey „Vocal Landscapes“ (Кroteva 2017, pp. 20 – 27), I point to a little-known fact – the meeting of Nikolay Stoykov with the Japanese lyrical art. Back in 1966 he wrote four exquisite pieces of „Tanka“ for a male voice and piano on poems by Ishikawa Takuboku. Nikolay Stoykov has various creative appearances. In addition to musical works, he has published three books with haiku poetry and poetic messages in which he has expressed himself „without notation“. The question of the influence of the short Japanese poetic forms on the composer’s creative invention was not in the focus of my work, and remained unexplored in depth. The theme of the International Science Forum „The East – So Far, So Close“ provoked me to trace the creative predisposition of Nikolay Stoykov to the Eastern cultures and to add extra touches to the portrait of this extremely interesting composer.

The anthropic turn of philosophy appears as a theoretical justification of the transition in the twentieth century from the state-totalitarian regimes to the globalization-information society, demo-liberal regimes and human rights. Since the middle of the twentieth century through so-called new science arises a new process-creative-centric image of the world in what the development of the anthroponomospherical tendency became the so-called socio-cultural paradigm, what is an increase in the conscious-spiritual factors of development. In the justifications of the anthropic principle of Carter, world-formation is concentrated in man as a personified creation of all cosmic, biological and social-spiritual forces, a continuation and continuater of world creation. The idea of a man as a cosmic being, but capable of his reconstruction, is further developed in a wide anthropocosmism. In the special anthropophilosophy of the first half of the twentieth century. The subject of reflection is the explanation and disclosure of the phenomenological meaning and the essence of human existence, the essence of which is that man is an animal, but is able to transcend himself, due to the spirit.
