Mills Ouachita Baptist University Follow this and additional works at: https://scholarlycommons.obu.edu/honors_theses Part of the French and Francophone Literature Commons, Other Theatre and Performance Studies Commons, and the Translation Studies Commons Recommended Citation Mills, Joy A., "Allusions and Historical Models in Gaston Leroux's The Phantom of the Opera" (2004). Honors Theses. 83. https://scholarlycommons.obu.edu/honors_theses/83 This Thesis is brought to you for free and open access by the Carl Goodson Honors Program at Scholarly Commons @ Ouachita. It has been accepted for inclusion in Honors Theses by an authorized administrator of Scholarly Commons @ Ouachita. For more information, please contact [email protected]. Gaston Leroux's 1911 novel, The Phantom of the Opera, has a considerable number of allusions, some of which are accessible to modern American audiences, like references to Romeo and Juilet. Many of the references, however, are very specific to the operatic world or to other somewhat obscure fields. Knowledge of these allusions would greatly enhance the experience of readers of the novel, and would also contribute to their ability to interpret it. Thus my thesis aims to be helpful to those who read The Phantom of the Opera by providing a set of notes, as it were, to explain the allusions, with an emphasis on the extended allusion of the Palais Garnier and the historical models for the heroine, Christine Daae. Notes on Translations At the time of this writing, three English translations are commercially available of The Phantom of the Opera.

  • Christina Nilsson Was in Kyrkhult
    Christina Nilsson. A Swedish Story A 70-years anniversary memory – among other things Olof Jönsson article in Vår Hembygd (Our Local History) Kyrkhults Hembygdsförening (Local Historical Society) Årsskrift 1984 (Annual publication 1984) “Christina Nilsson. A Swedish story” – This is written on the cover of the book written by radio announcer Olof Franzen’s book about Christina Nilsson. In this book he tells about the great singer’s strange and exciting life’s events. She was the youngest of seven brothers and sisters, who grew up being extremely poor. Already at nine years old she was known in Värend as “Stina on the slope” the bare foot girl who sang and played violin and was admired for her talent, her beautiful eyes, and her persona. The stories and anecdotes about her childhood together builds a unique portrait of a common, but yet so uncommon, poor child in 1850’s Sweden. Christina Nilsson was born 20th of August 1843 at the homestead Sjöabol, “Snugge” in Vederlöv’s parish. Her parents were, Jonas Nilsson born 1798, and Stina-Kajsa Mansdotter, who inherited the homestead from her parents. After being told by her sisters and brothers Christina herself has told the story about how she came to this world. “In this little cottage, little Stina was born, however I could have been born on a wagon, or in a hay stack, or somewhere else, because my parents was doing a delivery to Växsjö from Huseby, where my father was working that day. It took speedy driving to come home that evening before I could see my first daylight.

  • Adelina Patti and Clara Louise Kellogg in the Chicago Tribune, 1860-1876
    DOCUMENTING DIVAS: ADELINA PATTI AND CLARA LOUISE KELLOGG IN THE CHICAGO TRIBUNE, 1860-1876 Kathryn Jancaus A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF MUSIC December 2020 Committee: Eftychia Papanikolaou, Advisor Ryan Ebright © 2020 Kathryn Jancaus All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Eftychia Papanikolaou, Advisor When Swedish soprano Jenny Lind (1820-1887) came to the United States in 1850, the ecstatic craze surrounding her arrival belied a larger trend which was taking root among the American press and public: a fascination with the lives of celebrity opera singers. One of the Lind enthusiasts was a college student named George P. Upton (1834-1919), who later became the music critic for the Chicago Tribune. In his work over the following decades, Upton continued to take a vivid interest in the lives, careers, and personalities of prima donnas, writing about them with an intensely personal style that was common in newspapers of his time. As journalists for the Tribune provided news about opera stars to their readers in Chicago, they not only shaped the public images of these singers but also promoted the appreciation of classical music as a cause for civic pride in their relatively young city. In this study I examine how George P. Upton and other journalists published in the Chicago Tribune wrote about two star sopranos of the mid to late nineteenth century: Adelina Patti (1843-1919) and Clara Louise Kellogg (1842-1916). I bring together newspaper articles from the years 1860 through 1876 and use secondary literature to place the critics’ approach in context.

  • For the First Time, AIDA at the Royal Swedish Opera Broadcasted Worldwide
    Stockholm 2018-03-16 For the first time, AIDA at the Royal Swedish Opera Broadcasted Worldwide On the 17th of March at 3 pm (CET), Giuseppe Verdi’s Aida from the Royal Swedish Opera will be broadcasted live in Europe via OperaVision, a new open platform for live streaming. Following the premiere on the 24th of February, the performance with a young and aspiring cast was completely sold out. The title role, Aida, is portrayed by the 27-year-old Swedish soprano Christina Nilsson who has made a sensational debut at the Royal Swedish Opera. Media has particularly praised the credibility of the young love couple. Aida’s beloved Radamès is portrayed by the 30- year-old Italian tenor Ivan Defabiani. Canadian Director Michael Cavanagh has staged a love triangle where Aida, a prisoner of war; commander Radamès and princess Amneris are torn between unyielding private emotions and public obligations. The internationally celebrated Royal Court Singer Katarina Dalayman has received great reviews for her part as Amneris. ”Aida never ceases to fascinate us. It is an impossible love story really, and through the music we are thrown between hope and despair,” says Birgitta Svendén, CEO and Artistic Director of the Royal Swedish Opera. The EU funded open platform OperaVision, was launched in 2017 by 30 opera companies from 18 countries. The platform is part of Opera Europa, a European association for opera companies and festivals. The Royal Swedish Opera has been part of the association since it started up in 2003 with Birgitta Svendén, as the Board Chairperson.

On the centenary of legendary Swedish soprano’s birth, the Göteborg Opera will host the starriest gala to pay homage to soprano Birgit Nilsson - “a voice of heroic proportions” (Guardian) and the greatest Wagnerian soprano of her day - by lining up eight leading Swedish Wagnerian sopranos including Nina Stemme.

The Ring will commence with Das Rheingold in the autumn of 2018 continuing for 4 years culminating in the 400th anniversary of the City of Gothenburg.
