An impassioned guide to opera's political dimension. Viva la Liberta! puts politics back into opera, uncovering the political dimension of an art form all too often considered purely aesthetic. Taking us on a tour of 200 years of great opera, fromThe Marriage of Figaro to Nixon in China, Arblaster reveals opera's full vitality and passion for liberty.
