Sinossi
Carolyn Williams underscores Gilbert and Sullivan's creative and acute understanding of cultural formations.
Her unique perspective shows how anxiety drives the troubled mind in the Lord Chancellor's "nightmare Song" in Iolanthe and is vividly realized in the sexual and economic phrasing of the song's patter lyrics. The modern body appears automated and performative in the "Junction Song" in Thespis, anticipating Charlie Chaplin's factory worker in Modern Times. Williams also illuminates the use of magic in the Sorcerer, the parody of nautical melodrama in H.M.S. Pinafore, the ridicule of Victorian aesthetic and idyllic poetry in Patience, the authoethnography of The Mikado, the role of gender in trial by Jury, and the theme of illegitimacy in The Pirates of Penzance. With her provocative reinterpretation of these artists and their work, Williams recasts our understanding of creativity in the late nineteenth century.

Gilbert e Sullivan produzioni di sempre è salito al livello di critica sociale, pur essendo impertinente, assurdo, o inane. Alcuni spettatori possono portarli dritti, ma quello che appare come il sessismo o stereotipo era in realtà una strategia intelligente della critica. Parodia era una potente arma nelle guerre culturali della fine del diciannovesimo secolo in Inghilterra, e con aria di sfida in-your-face sofisticazione, Gilbert e Sullivan ha dimostrato che la cultura popolare può essere intellettualmente e politicamente challenging.Carolyn Williams sottolinea Gilbert e Sullivan creativa e la comprensione acuta delle formazioni culturali. La sua prospettiva unica mostra come l'ansia spinge la mente turbata nel Lord Cancelliere del "Nightmare Song" in Iolanthe ed è vividamente realizzato nel fraseggio sessuale ed economica della canzone di ...
