Dialogue of epochs in opera (on the issue of an artist preparation for presentation of the artistic image of an opera character).

Диалог эпох в опере (к вопросу подготовки артиста при воплощении художественного образа оперного персонажа)

Abstract

The paper describes a plan of analysis of the artistic image of an opera character and analysis of possible cases of correlation between various epochs of opera scenes, creation of the primary source (if available), the book of the opera and the opera proper. If the historical periods of the above circumstances do not coincide, a dialogue of epochs arises which reveals itself to a various degree and in various spheres. At that it is certainly required to account for the national aspect: locality of the opera, the country where the initial source was created and the nationality of the opera creators.
Keywords: opera, character, artistic image, artist.
