The Song of the Soul : Understanding Poppea Hardback
by Iain Fenlon, Peter N. Miller
Part of the Royal Musical Association Monographs series
Hardback
Description
L'incoronazione di Poppea is the most compelling of all early Italian operas and this has, in part, been responsible for the way in which it has become separated from its social and historical context.
In this book, Iain Fenlon and Peter Miller show how an understanding of contemporary Venetian intellectual currents and preoccupations provides a key to the structure of the opera's libretto, the progress of the action and the points of emphasis in both the music and the text.
