Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Beginning of Grand Opera in Chicago: 1850 1859 To those who like to draw up an easy chair under the lamp - ii near an open fire, with a gentle rain outside, so much the better - light apipe, and quietly muse over the things that were, this little record is modestly offered in the hope that it may afford an agreeable half hour.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Beginning of Grand Opera in Chicago: 1850 1859 'Opera' has always been a word with which to appeal to the children of men; moreover it has been my experience that whatever interested me - I being an average man - would prove interesting to my fellows. Therefore, when I discovered that the first attempt to produce opera in Chicago was brought to a close by the burning of the theatre, it occurred to me that it ought to be entertaining to learn something of the facts in the case, if they were to be unearthed at this late day. In digging about among the soot-begrimed files of the newspapers of the time there was brought to the surface a wealth of material so amusing in itself, with so many sidelights as to how people felt in the fifties, that I ventured the conclusion that it would be amusing to others.

Download or read book Backstage at the Revolution written by Victoria Johnson and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2008 with total page 307 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On July 14, 1789, a crowd of angry French citizens en route to the Bastille broke into the Paris Opera and helped themselves to any sturdy weapon they could find. Yet despite its long association with the royal court, its special privileges, and the splendor of its performances, the Opera itself was spared, even protected, by Revolutionary officials. Victoria Johnson’s Backstage at the Revolution tells the story of how this legendary opera house, despite being a lightning rod for charges of tyranny and waste, weathered the most dramatic political upheaval in European history. Sifting through royal edicts, private letters, and Revolutionary records of all kinds, Johnson uncovers the roots of the Opera’s survival in its identity as a uniquely privileged icon of French culture—an identity established by the conditions of its founding one hundred years earlier under Louis XIV. Johnson’s rich cultural history moves between both epochs, taking readers backstage to see how a motley crew of singers, dancers, royal ministers, poet entrepreneurs, shady managers, and the king of France all played a part in the creation and preservation of one of the world’s most fabled cultural institutions.
