A thorough examination of social and cultural contexts helps to explain the success of operas such as Paisiello's Nina as well as the extreme emotional reactions of their audiences. Like their counterparts in drama, literature and painting, these works brought to the fore serious contemporary problems including the widespread execution of deserters, the treatment of the insane, and anxieties relative to social and familial roles. They also developed a specifically operatic version of the dominant language of sensibility. This wide-ranging study involves such major cultural figures as Goldoni, Diderot and Mozart, while refining our understanding of the theatrical genre system of their time.Cambridge studies in opera.Opera18th centuryDomestic dramaHistory and criticismOperaDomestic dramaHistory and criticism.782.109/033Castelvecchi Stefano1960-625189UkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK9910810374603321Sentimental opera3965235UNINA
