Traditional Beijing Opera and Yangbang xi: Experience of a Comparative analysis
Abstract
The article is devoted to the problem of genre continuity between the Yangbang xi model opera and the traditional Beijing opera. The specifics of the Peking opera genre and the peculiarities of its perception by Europeans are explained; the history of the study of the Beijing opera in general and the Yangbang xi opera in particular is covered. The Yangbang xi genre is traced as a political and artistic phenomenon, the main structural features, the specifics of the libretto and the way of transformation of this genre are described. One of the conclusions of the study is that the significance of the model opera has gone beyond the theater, moving from the artistic and cultural sphere to the sphere of politics.
