Art, Theatre, and Opera in Paris, 1750-1850: Exchanges and Tensions
maps some of the many complex and vivid connections between art,
theatre, and opera in a period of dramatic and challenging
historical change, thereby deepening an understanding of familiar
(and less familiar) artworks, practices, and critical strategies in
the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. Throughout this period,
new types of subject matter were shared, fostering both creative
connections and reflection on matters of decorum, legibility,
pictorial, and dramatic structure. Correspondances were at work on
several levels: conception, design, and critical judgement. In a
time of vigorous social, political, and cultural contestation, the
status and role of the arts and their interrelation came to be a
matter of passionate public scrutiny. Scholars from art history,
French theatre studies, and musicology trace some of those
connections and clashes, making visible the intimately interwoven
and entangled world of the arts. Protagonists include Diderot,
Sedaine, Jacques-Louis David, Ignace-Eugene-Marie Degotti, Marie
Malibran, Paul Delaroche, Casimir Delavigne, Marie Dorval, the
'Bleeding Nun' from Lewis's The Monk, the Comedie-Francaise and
Etienne-Jean Delecluze.
