2010: Isabelle de Charrière and Music
The Dutch Isabelle de Charrière Association (Genootschap Belle van Zuylen) and the editorial committee of Cahiers Isabelle de Charrière invite proposals for articles about :
Isabelle de Charrière and Music
for which also a panel will be proposed at the Annual ASECS meeting (American Society for Eighteenth-Century Studies) in Vancouver, March 2011.
Over the past few years, there has been a growing awareness that Isabelle de Charrière was not only a talended novelist and an epistolary writer involved in an extended network of correspondents, but that she was also active in other areas – music in particular. The important role that she played, in relation with other women, was demonstrated by Jacqueline Letzter and Robert Adelson in Women Writing Opera. Creativity and Controversy in the Age of the French Revolution (UC Berkeley Press, 2001). In light of the interest that contemporary musicians show for her compositions, we think worthwhile to have a discussion about this issue.
Questions such as the following might be discussed:
- Charrière as composer
- Musical genres and relationships with both female and male composers
- Social role of music in eighteenth-century Europe
And also:
- The place of music in Charrière’s works and in her correspondence
- The musicality of her style – in her correspondence and in her fiction
.
To submit proposals, please contact:
- Madeleine van Strien-Chardonneau,
- Valérie Cossy, or
- Suzan van Dijk – by September 1st 2010.
Those who are interested will be able to benefit from the pending digitalization of Isabelle de Charrière’s correspondence by the Institut Huygens in The Hague (Netherlands) and its accessibility on line.
