期刊简介

Containing lively and provocative essays, Cambridge Opera Journal has a well-established reputation for publishing first-rate scholarship from researchers at all career stages. The Journal publishes high-quality articles on all aspects of opera, including music, librettos, staging and scenery, costumes, non-European operatic traditions, the canon and canonicity, reception, touring and travel, as well as the local, trans/national, colonial, and postcolonial contexts for these phenomena. Carefully researched and often illustrated with music examples and pictures, articles adopt a wide spectrum of critical approaches. As well as major articles, each issue generally includes review-essays on recent publications in the field. Cambridge Opera Journal awards a prize for best paper by a junior scholar at the biennial Transnational Opera Studies Conference (TOSC@). Cambridge Opera Journal is a fully open access journal.
