Contents Prelude : The Spains of Paris, Merimee, and Bizet's Carmen -- Part I : Carmen's early escapades (1874-90) -- Part II : Spain discovers Carmen (1887-91) -- Part III : Authenticating Carmen in the age of Verismo (1889-1908) -- Part IV : Carmen as popular entertainment (1900-15).
Summary Georges Bizet's Carmen and its staging of an exoticized Spain was progressively reimagined between its 1875 Paris premiere and 1915. This book explores Carmen's dynamic interaction with Spanishness in this cosmopolitan age of spectacle, across operatic productions, parodies, and theatrical adaptations from Spain to Paris, London, and New York.
