RISM G2816. <br /> <br /> "Iphigénie en Tauride was given on May 18 1778 with excellent singers; Rosalie Lavasseur sang Iphigénie Larrivée Oreste Legros Pylade and Moreau Thoas . The opera had a great success immediately and even Grimm wrote of it - I do not know whether this is melody but perhaps it is something better. When I hear Iphigénie I forget I am at the opera; I seem to be listening to a Greek tragedy with music by Lekain and Mlle Clarion. It was the crowning point of Gluck's career. Guillard had provided an excellent libretto more classical than Goethe's poem less Christian and more ruthless; and Gluck had seized on the contrast between Scythians and Greeks upon the perfectly dramatic figures of Iphigenia and Orestes and had produced a work which both re-created a part of Greek tragedy and at the same time foretold a new world." Cooper: Gluck p. 258. <br /> <br /> While Marie-Antoinette is not actually mentioned on the title she was the queen to whom the work is dedicated. Des Lauriers [without PN] unknown

"Investigates the disappointments unfinished quests and unanswered questions that compose arrange and ruin a life. Wise densely crafted meditations" Publishers Weekly. Just as C. P. Cavafy the greatest Greek poet of the 20th century found a way to fuse the mythical with the personal so has Louise Gluck. As such her greatest achievement is that she has found a permanent way out of the confessional mode - otherwise so irresistible - that most not just some contemporary American poets continue to wallow in especially the "identity politics" kind feminist "patriotic"/uber-masculine LGBTQ etcetera. The point is not to reject identity but to transcend it in all of its narcissistic forms as all great art does. "Solstice" Poem Broadside: Limited Edition of 25 signed copies. Size is 9 X 12 inches.
