Caterina Corner in Venetian History and Iconography Holly Hurlburt
Early Modern Women: An Interdisciplinary Journal 2009, vol. 4 Body of Empire: Caterina Corner in Venetian History and Iconography Holly Hurlburt n 1578, a committee of government officials and monk and historian IGirolamo Bardi planned a program of redecoration for the Sala del Maggior Consiglio (Great Council Hall) and the adjoining Scrutinio, among the largest and most important rooms in the Venetian Doge’s Palace. Completed, the schema would recount Venetian history in terms of its international stature, its victories, and particularly its conquests; by the sixteenth century Venice had created a sizable maritime empire that stretched across the eastern Mediterranean, to which it added considerable holdings on the Italian mainland.1 Yet what many Venetians regarded as the jewel of its empire, the island of Cyprus, was calamitously lost to the Ottoman Turks in 1571, three years before the first of two fires that would necessitate the redecoration of these civic spaces.2 Anxiety about such a loss, fear of future threats, concern for Venice’s place in evolving geopolitics, and nostalgia for the past prompted the creation of this triumphant pro- gram, which featured thirty-five historical scenes on the walls surmounted by a chronological series of ducal portraits. Complementing these were twenty-one large narratives on the ceiling, flanked by smaller depictions of the city’s feats spanning the previous seven hundred years. The program culminated in the Maggior Consiglio, with Tintoretto’s massive Paradise on one wall and, on the ceiling, three depictions of allegorical Venice in triumph by Tintoretto, Veronese, and Palma il Giovane. These rooms, a center of republican authority, became a showcase for the skills of these and other artists, whose history paintings in particular underscore the deeds of men: clothed, in armor, partially nude, frontal and foreshortened, 61 62 EMWJ 2009, vol. -

Reading at the Opera: Music and Literary Culture in Early Nineteenth-Century Italy By Edward Lee Jacobson A dissertation submitted in partial satisfacation of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Music in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Mary Ann Smart, Chair Professor James Q. Davies Professor Ian Duncan Professor Nicholas Mathew Summer 2020 Abstract Reading at the Opera: Music and Literary Culture in Early Nineteenth-Century Italy by Edward Lee Jacobson Doctor of Philosophy in Music University of California, Berkeley Professor Mary Ann Smart, Chair This dissertation emerged out of an archival study of Italian opera libretti published between 1800 and 1835. Many of these libretti, in contrast to their eighteenth- century counterparts, contain lengthy historical introductions, extended scenic descriptions, anthropological footnotes, and even bibliographies, all of which suggest that many operas depended on the absorption of a printed text to inflect or supplement the spectacle onstage. This dissertation thus explores how literature— and, specifically, the act of reading—shaped the composition and early reception of works by Gioachino Rossini, Vincenzo Bellini, Gaetano Donizetti, and their contemporaries. Rather than offering a straightforward comparative study between literary and musical texts, the various chapters track the often elusive ways that literature and music commingle in the consumption of opera by exploring a series of modes through which Italians engaged with their national past. In doing so, the dissertation follows recent, anthropologically inspired studies that have focused on spectatorship, embodiment, and attention. But while these chapters attempt to reconstruct the perceptive filters that educated classes would have brought to the opera, they also reject the historicist fantasy that spectator experience can ever be recovered, arguing instead that great rewards can be found in a sympathetic hearing of music as it appears to us today. -

La Dernière Reine De Gaetano Donizetti Caterina Cornaro
La dernière Reine de Gaetano Donizetti Caterina Cornaro « Une fois que j’aurai vu Caterina Cornaro sur scène, alors je puis mourir. », déclarait un Suisse passionné de Donizetti au point d’acheter un appartement à Bergame !... C'est dire combien pouvait intriguer un opéra tellement beau, mais peu repris depuis sa redécouverte en 1972. Dernier ouvrage créé du vivant de Donizetti, mais composé curieusement en chassé-croisé avec Don Pasquale et Maria di Rohan, Caterina Cornaro offre néanmoins une remarquable unité de couleur, étonnante de poésie donizettienne au plus haut degré de son inspiration. L'occasion de son entrée au Royal Concertgebouw d'Amsterdam est également celle de confirmer une certitude : il s'agit bien de l'un des derniers chefs-d'oeuvre du Maestro Bergamasco. Un dossier de Yonel Buldrini Avril 2010 « Quand le sujet plaît, le coeur parle, la tête vole, la main écrit.... » Gaetano Donizetti, à l’époque où il composait simultanément Don Pasquale et Caterina Cornaro La Regina di Cipro entre Don Pasquale et Maria di Rohan Dans notre précédente étude, consacrée à Dom Sébastien, dernier opéra de Gaetano Donizetti, nous dessinions l’étonnante situation du compositeur en ces années 1842-44, fébrilement engagé entre Vienne, en tant que Compositeur de la Cour impériale et directeur des saisons musicales, et Paris, où il réussissait, au gran dam de Berlioz, à donner simultanément quatre opéras dans quatre théâtres différents ! Pour connaître la naissance de l’opéra qui nous occupe pour l’heure, la belle Caterina Cornaro, il nous faut le rattraper à l’un de ses retours à Paris, durant le mois de septembre 1842.
