Beschreibung:
Rachel Cowgill is Professor in the School of Music at Cardiff University. She is co-editor (with Julian Rushton) of Europe, Empire, and Spectacle in Nineteenth-Century British Music (Ashgate, 2006) and co-editor (with Peter Holman) of the series Music in Britain, 1600-1900 (Boydell and Brewer). Hilary Poriss is Associate Professor of Music at Northeastern University and author of Changing the Score: Arias, Prima Donnas, and the Authority of Performance (OUP, 2009).
The Arts of the Prima Donna assembles a star-studded yet well-balanced cast of contributors, whose essays combine theoretical approaches to text and narrative, and current theory on gender, performativity, and the commodification of the female body, with the growing understanding of the lives, careers, and performances of the female opera singer.
