Guido Goroll
Guido is a given name. It has been a male first name in Italy, Austria, Germany, Switzerland, Argentina, the Low Countries, Scandinavia, Spain, Portugal and Latin America, as well as other places with migration from those. Regarding origins, there are most likely homonymous forms of it, that is, from several etymological predecessors but now seeming to be the same name. One of the likely homonyms is Germanic ''Guido'' representing the Latinisation from the Old High German name ''Wido'', which meant "wood" (that is, "forest"). Another likely homonym is the Italian ''Guido'' from a latinate root for "guide". The third likely homonym is the Italian ''Guido'' with phonetic correspondence to Latin '' Vitus'', whereas the Latin ''v'' (/w/), the Latin ''i'' (/iː/), and the terminal syllable ''-tus'' have predictable homology with the Italian /u/, /iː/, and ''-do''. Thus, for example, Saint Vitus has also been known in Italian as Guido. The slang term ''Guido'' is used in American cultu ...

Manon Damann
''Manon'' () is an ''opéra comique'' in five acts by Jules Massenet to a French libretto by Henri Meilhac and Philippe Gille, based on the 1731 novel '' L'histoire du chevalier des Grieux et de Manon Lescaut'' by the Abbé Prévost. It was first performed at the Opéra-Comique in Paris on 19 January 1884, with sets designed by Eugène Carpezat (act 1), Auguste Alfred Rubé and Philippe Chaperon (acts 2 and 3), and Jean-Baptiste Lavastre (act 4). Prior to Massenet's work, Halévy (''Manon Lescaut'', ballet, 1830) and Auber (''Manon Lescaut'', opéra comique, 1856) had used the subject for musical stage works. Massenet also wrote a one-act sequel to ''Manon'', ''Le portrait de Manon'' (1894), involving the Chevalier des Grieux as an older man. ''Manon'' is Massenet's most popular and enduring opera and, having "quickly conquered the world's stages", it has maintained an important place in the repertory since its creation. It is the quintessential example of the charm and vital ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
