    Melinda and Her Sisters: Reconsidering a Suffrage Operetta As Pageantry

    Melinda and Her Sisters: Reconsidering a Suffrage Operetta as Pageantry A thesis submitted by Kendall H. Winter in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Music Tufts University February 2017 Advisor: Stephan Pennington ii Abstract This thesis claims that the sui generis classification of Belmont and Maxwell’s Melinda and Her Sisters as a suffrage operetta is to blame for the lack of extant scholarship on the work. In its place, I offer the analytical framework of pageantry. Relying on contemporaneous press and practical guides and recent histories of each genre, I reconstruct the commercial and critical atmosphere in the year the work was created, 1916. I also draw on suffrage propaganda, government documents, and court cases to convey the sociopolitical tension of the historical moment. By placing the two genres in dialogue, I reveal a chiasmus of gender and class coding attendant to each. I conclude that it was the relatively high cultural capital of “suffrage operetta,” and not its aptness of description, that ultimately led the creators to market their work as such. As a genre case study, this thesis comments on the impact that ontology has on reception. iii Table of Contents Introduction ............................................................................................................. 1 Chapter One: Reassessing the Operetta Classification ......................................... 15 Chapter Two: A Case for Pageantry ....................................................................
