Leonora – Through the Looking Glass. A Psychoanalytical Reading of Claus Guth’s Fidelio
Abstract:
In 2015, the German director staged Beethoven’s Fidelio at the Salzburg Festival. Guth’s intertextual interpretation rethinks the meanings of prison and of Hades, of the underworld, for the 21st century. The paper seeks theoretical reference points for a more nuanced reading of this interpretation of Fidelio, and highlights above all the influence of Jean Cocteau’s and Robert Wilson’s work, in addition to various cinematic and theatrical allusions.
