Opera instigated a range of discourses, most notably among Rome's Academy of Arcadians, whose apprehension towards opera refracted larger aesthetic and cultural debates, and socio-political tensions. Tcharos presents a unique perspective, engaging opera as a historical force that established a sphere of influence across several genres and matrices of culture. The juxtaposition of opera against the prominent forms of the oratorio, serenata and cantata illustrates opera's constitutive role in a trans-genre cultural matrix, where the dialogical connections between musico-dramatic forms vividly capture the historicism, nostalgia, contradiction and cultural reform that opera inspired. By illuminating other genres as reactionary sites of music and drama, Opera's Orbit boldly reconstructs opera's eighteenth-century critical turn"-- $c Provided by publisher. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references and index. 505 0 $a Enclosures, crises, polemics : opera production in 1690s Arcadian Rome -- Disrupting the oratorio -- The serenata's discourses of duality -- The cantata, the pastoral, and the ideology of nostalgia -- Epilogue. 650 0 $a Opera $z Rome $z Rome $y 17th century. 650 0 $a Opera $z Rome $z Rome $y 18th century. 650 0 $a Music, Influence of $z Italy $x History. 610 20 $a Accademia degli Arcadi. 856 42 $z Additional Information at Google Books $u http://books.google.com/books?isbn=9780521116657 941 $a 2 952 $l USUX851 $d 20160825083036.0 952 $l SOAX911 $d 20120928010948.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=0EA50EE2093211E28379C6BD6AFF544E 994 $a C0 $b IOKInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
