"The ongoing proliferation of new versions of Carmen presents an ideal opportunity to study both the cultural power and renewability of certain literary texts and the relationship between literature and the performing arts. Since its introduction in Prosper Mérimée's 1845 novella, the Carmen character has been the subject of countless portrayals, from Bizet's 1874 opera, to various dramatic, dance and musical renditions, to films by such directors as Peter Brook, Jean-Luc Godard, Francesco Rosi, and Carlos Saura. In [this book], [the author] studies competing representations of Carmen as either dangerous femme fatale, liberated woman, or vanguard warrior in the battle between the sexes. [The author] locates the impetus for the continual renewal of this modern myth in the cultural ideal of Bohemia, tracing the history of this ideal from nineteenth-century Paris to the European Union of today"--Back cover.

Bizet's Carmen is probably the best known opera of the standard repertoire, yet its very familiarity often prevents us from approaching it with the seriousness it deserves. This handbook explores the opera in a number of contexts, bringing to the surface the controversies over gender, race, class and musical propriety that greeted its premiere and that have been rekindled by the recent spate of film versions. Beginning with a study of the Mérimée story by Peter Robinson and an examination of the social tensions in nineteenth-century France that inform both that story and the opera, the book traces the latter through its genesis and reception. The central core of the book presents a close reading of the opera that offers new interpretive possibilities. The handbook concludes with discussions of four films based on the opera: Carmen Jones and the versions of Carmen by Carlos Saura, Peter Brook, and Francesco Rosi. The volume contains a bibliography, music examples, and a synopsis.

In Bizet's opera, Carmen, the romanticised Gypsy girl is being murdered in the rage of an unrequited love. She is murdered by a man who loves her above all else. The scientific background apparently had not been developed at Bizet's time that would have prevented this type of tragedy. But what about us, in our time? We are in the boundary zone to the next Ice Age that promises once again to render the Earth essentially uninhabitable. In the modern rage for profit, power, greed, terror, hate, deprivation, slavery, inhumanity, perpetual war, and nuclear threats, who will build the foundation for humanity to continue to live, by building a New World with technological infrastructures for agriculture that the Ice Age glaciation cannot touch? Will humanity suffer the fate of Carmen? Or will we yet raise ourselves onto a higher stage with universal love for our common humanity? Winning Without Victory projects the Westphalian Principle of an active peace, the win/win principle that leaves no one vanquished but uplifts the world, where the advantage of the other is the keystone for an enriched civilization. This humanist foundation is a fit platform for meeting the Ice Age challenge, the most severe challenge in the entire history of humanity. The book presented here (Book 10) is a part of a series of selected chapters from my novel, Winning Without Victory. The multi-part series is created to highlight that Active Peace, though it is achievable, is not simplistic, but has many facets, with each being profound.

In societies where men control most aspects of life by default, many people see a woman’s control of her sexuality as a threat to the established order. While Prosper Mérimée was a chauvinist who was comfortable with male dominance in 19th century France, he inadvertently created a compelling and complex female character. Carmen controls her environment, goes where she wants with whom she wants. She even chooses, in the end, to die free rather than live under a man’s rule. In trying to create a vamp or femme fatale, Mérimée also wrote about a fascinating proto-feminist heroine who remains fresh more than 150 years later.
