  • Dove L'uomo È Fascina E La Donna È L'alare
    Dove l’uomo è fascina e la donna è l’alare: the Quiet Defiance of Puccini’s La Bohème Parkorn Wangpaiboonkit Oberlin College In stark contrast to the remainder of the standard operatic repertoire, instead of babies thrown into fires, sons in love with their mother-in-law, mystical rings of fire, head-cutting, suicide, self-sacrifice, or spontaneous expiration through excess of emotion, Puccini’s La Bohème presents us with an opera where a sick girl gets sicker and dies. “No one is evil; it is the opera of innocence… - as if there were no responsibility, as if nothing happened other than this great cold, freezing them all, which one of them, a woman, cannot withstand” (Clément 83). More simply put, Bohème ’s plot is “boy meets girl, girl dies” (Berger 109). While this lack of momentous action might make Bohème seem an unlikely candidate for an operatic innovation, I argue that the opera’s quiet insurrection against its genre and tradition becomes apparent when its heroine, Mimi, is closely examined. In constructing Mimi, Puccini has deviated from the expectations of genre, gender, and disease narrative typically found in nineteenth century Italian operas, creating an operatic heroine that escapes the typical dramatic formulations of her predecessors: “She does not do anything. She waters her flowers at the window, she embroiders silk and satin for other people, that is all” (Clément 84). By highlighting these subtle but radical uniqueness in the way Mimi as a heroine is treated by other characters in the opera and by us as an audience, I offer a new reading of Bohème that recognizes the work as an innovative text, “the first Italian opera in which the artificialities of the medium is so little felt” (Budden 180).
