Many of these controversies manifested themselves in the representation of the historical and mythological women whose voices were heard on the Venetian operatic stage. Drawing upon a complex web of early modern sources and ancient texts, this engaging study is the first comprehensive treatment of women, gender, and sexuality in seventeenth-century opera. Wendy Heller explores the operatic manifestations of female chastity, power, transvestism, androgyny, and desire, showing how the emerging genre was shaped by and infused with the Republic's taste for the erotic and its ambivalent attitudes toward women and sexuality. Heller begins by examining contemporary Venetian writings about gender and sexuality that influenced the development of female vocality in opera. The Venetian reception and transformation of ancient texts-by Ovid, Virgil, Tacitus, and Diodorus Siculus-form the background for her penetrating analyses of the musical and dramatic representation of five extraordinary women as presented in operas by Claudio Monteverdi, Francesco Cavalli, and their successors in Venice: Dido, queen of Carthage (Cavalli); Octavia, wife of Nero (Monteverdi); the nymph Callisto (Cavalli); Queen Semiramis of Assyria (Pietro Andrea Ziani); and Messalina, wife of Claudius (Carlo Pallavicino). 410 0$aACLS Fellows? publications. 606 $aOpera$zItaly$zVenice$y17th century 606 $aWomen in opera 610 $a17th century. 610 $aandrogyny. 610 $aantiquity. 610 $acallisto. 610 $acarthage. 610 $acavalli. 610 $achastity. 610 $aclassical. 610 $aclassicism. 610 $adesire. 610 $adido. 610 $adiodorus siculus. 610 $adrama. 610 $aempress. 610 $aerotic. 610 $afemale characters. 610 $afemale power. 610 $afemale vocality. 610 $afeminism. 610 $agender studies. 610 $agender. 610 $amessalina. 610 $amonteverdi. 610 $amusic. 610 $amusicology. 610 $amythological women. 610 $amythology. 610 $anonfiction. 610 $anymph. 610 $aoctavia. 610 $aopera women. 610 $aopera. 610 $aovid. 610 $apallavicino. 610 $aperforming arts. 610 $apurity. 610 $asemiramis. 610 $asexuality. 610 $atacitus. 610 $atheater. 610 $atransvestism. 610 $avenetian opera. 610 $avirgil. 610 $awomen. 610 $awomens rights. 610 $aziani. 615 0$aOpera 615 0$aWomen in opera. 676 $a782.1/082/094531 700 $aHeller$b Wendy Beth$01005726 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910777355003321 996 $aEmblems of eloquence$92312895 997 $aUNINA 999 $p$140.25$u09/08/2017$5Music
