DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from Madame Butterfly: Purple Eyes; A Gentleman of Japan and a Lady; Kito; Glory Pinkerton arrested him with a savage snort. "You are usually merely frivolous, Sayre; but to-day you are silly." Without manifest offense, Sayre went on: "When I was out here in 1890 -"" "The story of the Pink Geisha?" "Well - yes," admitted Sayre, patiently. "Excuse me, then, till you are through." He turned to go below. "Heard it, have you?" "A thousand times - from you and others." Sayre laughed good-naturedly at the gallant exaggeration, and passed Pinkerton his cigarette-case. "Ah - ever heard who the man was?" "No." He lighted his cigarette. "That has been your own little mystery - apparently." "Apparently?" "Yes; we all knew it was yourself." "It wasn't," said Sayre, steadily. "It was my brother." He looked away. "Oh!" "He's dead." "Beg pardon. You never told us that." "He went back; couldn't find her." About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKPuccini's famous but controversial Madama Butterfly reflects a practice of 'temporary marriage' between Western men and Japanese women in nineteenth-century treaty ports. Groos' book identifies the plot's origin in an eye-witness account and traces its transmission via John Luther Long's short story and David Belasco's play. Archival sources, many unpublished, reveal how Puccini and his librettists imbued the opera with differing constructions of the action and its heroine. Groos's analysis suggests how they constructed a 'contemporary' music-drama with multiple possibilities for interpreting the misalliance between a callous American naval officer and an impoverished fifteen-year-old geisha, providing a more complex understanding of the heroine's presumed 'marriage'. As an orientalizing tragedy with a racially inflected representation of Cio-Cio-San, the opera became a lightning rod for identity politics in Japan, while also stimulating decolonizing transpositions into indigenous theatre traditions such as Bunraku puppet theatre and Takarazuka musicals.

Usually dismissed by critics because of their stereotypical treatment of Asian women, they have been paired here to show how they defined and redefined contemporary misconceptions of the Orient.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKIn this fascinating and wide-ranging book, Yoko Kawaguchi explores the Western portrayal of Japanese women—and geishas in particular—from the mid-nineteenth century to the present day. She argues that in the West, Japanese women have come to embody certain ideas about feminine sexuality, and she analyzes how these ideas have been expressed in diverse art forms, ranging from fiction and opera to the visual arts and music videos. Among the many works Kawaguchi discusses are the art criticism of Baudelaire and Huysmans, the opera Madama Butterfly, the sculptures of Rodin, the Broadway play Teahouse of the August Moon, and the international best seller Memoirs of a Geisha. Butterfly’s Sisters also examines the impact on early twentieth-century theatre, drama, and dance theory of the performance styles of the actresses Madame Hanako and Sadayakko, both formerly geishas.
