Annette
et Lubin
Justine
Favart and Adolphe
Blaise'sAnnette et
Lubinwas premiered on 15
February 1762 at the
Paris Opera-Comique - the
first new production at
that theater following
its merger with the
Comedie-Italien. It was a
resounding success: by
the time the season came
to an end, on 3 April, it
had been almost
continuously on the
program with no decline
in interest from the
public, and it remained
in the repertoire for
more than thirty years.
Countless new editions,
translations, and
parodies of the play bear
witness to its impact far
beyond the borders of
Paris. Like all of
Favart's works, it deals
with the subject of
natural love,
unencumbered by
considerations of money
or social status
endangering it from the
outside through powerful
aristocratic or wealthy
rivals. The plot is based
on a literary model, the
like-named tale by
Jean-Francois Marmontel,
which is in turn based on
a contemporary
occurrence.
Annette and her
cousin Lubin are sharply
reprimanded for their
love by an estate
administrator (Le Bailli)
who himself has designs
on Annette. He takes
advantage of Annette's
illegitimate pregnancy to
extort her: only by
marrying him can she
escape condemnation by
society and the church.
But Annette and her lover
are able to gain the
protection of the local
squire (Le Seigneur), and
the story ends happily
with a conciliatory
gesture from the lord of
the manor.
The
second volume in our
series OPERA, Annette et
Lubin, consists of a
cloth-bound book and an
Edirom file stored on a
USB card in credit-card
format. The number of
simultaneous users of the
edition's digital
component is
unlimited.

OPERA: Spectrum
of European Music Theatre
in Separate Editions is
dedicated to critical
editions of outstanding
works of European music
theatre from the 17th to
the 20th centuries.
Compositions of
French, Italian, German,
English, Scandinavian and
Slavic origin are being
edited. These include
specific genres which
have seldom been given
attention in editorial
undertakings until now
and which present their
own editorial problems,
such as ballet, theatre
music, melodrama or
operetta.
A new
feature is the form of
the presentation in
so-called hybrid
editions. While the
scores appear in
traditional cloth-bound
volumes, the musical and
textual sources, the
editions of the dramatic
texts, as well as the
critical commentaries are
prepared and presented on
an electronic platform
(Edirom).
Thanks to
this ability to access
the underlying sources,
the editorial decisions
are completely
transparent to the
user.
This
special editorial access
being implemented by
OPERA's editions uses the
software Edirom, which
was developed in a
project of the Deutsche
Forschungsgemeinschaft
(German Research
Foundation) based at the
University of Paderborn.
All components of the
electronic part are
encoded according to the
modern standard of XML.
The text components
follow the standard of
the Text Encoding
Initiative (TEI).
