Summary:
"Operatic Subjects argues that opera is more than just a conservative
and belated reflection of social, intellectual, and artistic trends;
opera in its own way actively has contributed to the creation of the
conceptual vocabulary of modernism. Particularly, this work maintains
that opera has helped form our notions of what it means to be a self
in twentieth-century western culture."--BOOK JACKET.
