Description

The Operatic State examines how cultural, financial, and political investments have sustained opera and opera houses across Europe, the USA, and Australia. This scholarly work analyses opera's remarkable resilience through wars, revolutions, and profound social transformations worldwide. Bereson argues that opera maintains privileged status by legitimising state power through universally recognised ceremonial ritual, often at the expense of popular and indigenous art forms. Published by Routledge as part of the Harwood Studies in Cultural Policy series, this book offers critical insight into the political economy of high culture and the relationship between state institutions and artistic tradition. Ideal for students, academics, and cultural policy professionals seeking to understand how opera's institutional position has endured and shaped cultural hierarchies across multiple continents.
