Operatic Geographies - The Place of Opera and the Opera HousePaperback
Since its origin, opera has been identified with the performance and negotiation of power. Yet the importance of the opera house's physical situation, and the ways in which opera and the opera house have shaped each other, have seldom been treated as topics worthy of examination.Operatic Geographies invites us to reconsider the opera house's spatial production. Once theaters specifically for opera were established, that connection was expressed in the design and situation of the buildings themselves, as much as through the content of operatic works.
The essays in this anthology consider moments across the history of the genre, and across a range of geographical contexts--from the urban to the suburban Looking at opera through the lens of cultural geography, this anthology rethinks the opera house's landscape, not as a static backdrop, but as an expression of territoriality.
