Book of Requiems, 1550-1560
From the Earliest Ages to the Present Period

Barbara Titus Recognizing music as an art form

(Dis)embodying myths in Ancien Régime opera
multidisciplinary perspectives
The role of mythology in Ancien Régime opera. Throughout the Ancien Régime, mythology played a vital role in opera, defining such epoch-making works as Claudio Monteverdi's La favola d'Orfeo (1607) and Christoph Gluck's Iphigénie en Tauride (1779). The operatic presence of the Greco-Roman gods and heroes was anything but unambiguous or unproblematic, however.
