Opera in Transnational Contexts: Circulating Identities and Cultures sheds important light onto the travels of operatic works and the types of cultural exchanges that occurred as a result of the music, composers, singers, impresarios, and others moving from one locale to another between the late eighteenth and twentieth centuries.
Contributors reveal how complex constructions of identity and cultural value have been forged through the circulation, production, translation, adaptation and reception of different operatic and non-operatic genres. Engaging with decolonial agendas in North Africa, postcolonial and imperial history in Latin America, cultural dissonances and hegemonic aspirations in Japan, localities and peripheries from the old world to Australia, and the centrality of Europe in historiographies of opera, chapters examine the dynamics and multifaceted effects of transnational mobility.
The book will not only be important for opera studies, musicology, and music and voice studies, but also for researchers in history, art history, literary studies, translation, and cultural studies.
