DESCRIPTION
While predominantly considered an elitist art form today, opera has often been transgressive in its confrontation of divisive polemical issues. Its treatment of religion, race and above all gender is often versatile and complex. This course will explore and study how opera challenges moral and political expectations towards women using both musicological and sociological perspectives.
