''Azara,'' a drama set in Provence in the Middle Ages, "confronts daughter with guardian, son with father, and pursuer with fugitive." ''List of Cambridge Companions to Music, The Cambridge Companion to Grand Opera'' said the plot "is a classic conflict between Christianity, Christians and Islam, Muslims, with the requisite opposing choruses, and a private story is set against the political background although the two spheres are never truly integrated." The work premiered in 1903 in a concert version at Chickering Hall (Boston, 1901), Chickering Hall in Boston. ''Azara'' has never been fully staged. Paine's biographer called ''Azara'' "the supreme effort of his life and caused him the greatest disappointment ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

El Azara
The Berber calendar () is the agricultural calendar traditionally used by Berbers (''Amazigh'', plural ''Imazighen''). The calendar is utilized to regulate the seasonal agricultural works. The current Berber calendar is a legacy of the Roman province of Mauretania Caesariensis and the Roman province of Africa, as it is a surviving form of the Julian calendar. The latter calendar was used in Europe before the adoption of the Gregorian calendar, with month names derived from Latin. Berber populations previously used various indigenous calendars, such as that of the indigenous Guanches of the Canary Islands. However, relatively little is known of these ancient calendrical systems. Differences between calendars The agricultural Berber calendar still in use is almost certainly derived from the Julian calendar, introduced in the Roman province of Africa at the time of Roman domination.
