Description

The idea of exploring the “Circulation of Opera and Operatic Companies around the Mediterranean Theaters” was born during the meeting of our IMS Study Group at the Med-Ren conference in Lisbon 2021, where the participants approved the proposal to organize a panel on this topic at the 21st IMS Quinquennial Congress in Athens 2022. Two years later the same group had a second meeting in Valletta, Malta, discussing the same topic as a sequel to Athens. The great interest aroused by these two meetings, where for the first time this topic was explored collaboratively by scholars from so many Mediterranean countries, convinced us to propose a third meeting for IMS Valencia 2025 in which the same group of scholars (with a few variations from the previous two, but with the entry of younger scholars) will be able to present the results of the work carried out over the last three years, which will lead to the publication of a collective book in preparation. The invited scholars are specialists in the history of opera houses in their respective countries (Italy, Croatia, Greece, Turkey, Egypt, Tunisia). It will thus be possible to draw a first reliable diachronic map of the circulation of theatre troupes in the Mediterranean.

IMPORTANT YES, I confirm I have read it.
