Unlike American authors who portrayed Mormons as malevolent "others," however, French dramatists used Mormonism to point out hypocrisy in their own culture. Aren't Mormon women, because of their numbers in a household, more liberated than French women who can't divorce? What is polygamy but another name for multiple mistresses? This new critical edition presents translations of four musical comedies staged or published in France in the late 1800s: Mormons in Paris (1874), Berthelier Meets the Mormons (1875), Japheth's Twelve Wives (1890), and Stephana's Jewel (1892). Each is accompanied by a short contextualizing introduction with details about the music, playwrights, and staging. Humorous and largely unknown, these plays use Mormonism to explore and mock changing French mentalities during the Third Republic, lampooning shifting attitudes and evolving laws about marriage, divorce, and gender roles"-- $c Provided by publisher. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references and index. 505 0 $a Mormons in Paris / Louis Leroy and Alfred Delacour -- Berthelier Meets the Mormons -- Japheth's Twelve Wives / Antony Mars and Maurice DesvallieÌres -- Stephana's Jewel / Arthur BerneÌde and Albert Dubarry. 648 7 $a 1800-1899 $2 fast 650 0 $a French drama (Comedy) $v Translations into English. 650 0 $a French drama $y 19th century $v Translations into English. 650 0 $a Mormons in literature. 650 0 $a Polygamy in literature. 650 7 $a French drama. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00934265 650 7 $a French drama (Comedy) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00934283 650 7 $a Mormons in literature. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01026355 650 7 $a Polygamy in literature. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01904308 655 7 $a Drama. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423879 655 7 $a Translations. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423791 655 7 $a Drama. $2 lcgft 730 02 $a Berthelier chez les mormonnes. $l English. 776 08 $i Online version: $t Mormons in Paris. $b First edition. $d Lewisberg, Pennsylvania : Bucknell University Press, [2020] $z 9781684482382 $w (DLC) 2019059073 700 1 $a Cropper, Corry, $e translator. $e translator. 700 1 $a Flood, Christopher M., $d 1975- $e translator. $e translator. 700 12 $a Leroy, Louis, $d 1812-1885. $t Mormons aÌ Paris. $l English. 700 12 $a Mars, Antony, $d 1862-1915. $t Douze femmes de Japhet. $l English. 700 12 $a BerneÌde, Arthur, $d 1871-1937. $t Bijou de SteÌphana. $l English. 830 0 $a SceÌnes francophones. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231219012522.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=0E58D12A71B711EB8A4F4B2E3BECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
