THDS 300AC - Representation and Spectacle: Women in Opera
This course investigates the representation of women through several seminal operas of the 19th and 20th century. Situated between studio and studies, students will consider the question of how women (Brünnhilde/Götterdämmerung, Hermia and Helena/The Enchanted Island, Elvira/Ernani) are idealized and demeaned in staged representation. The class will be conducted through readings and discussion, creative projects and in a critical research paper. Students will also be expected to attend three Live from the Met Broadcasts (Cineplex Galaxy or the Cineplex Odeon).
