詼諧劇、悲喜劇和複合遊戲：數世紀以來音樂劇的《吉訶德》

Burlesque Drama, Tragicomedy and Complex Play: Don Quijote in Musical Theater throughout the Centuries

塞萬提斯的《吉軻德》真可謂世界之書，於是乎，我們毫不驚訝本書自十七世紀啟發了許多音樂作品。大量且具代表性的音樂作品－－本論文要處理的是歌劇作品－－展現了在音樂上接收《吉軻德》的沿革趨向。我們可以藉由此路徑，剖析數個世紀以來每個階段如何以歌劇詮釋《吉軻德》。根據本文的討論，我們發現此一詮釋的演變，有著詼諧的、悲劇的和實驗性的差異。

Miguel de Cervantes's Don Quijote (1605/1615) is a truly universal work; many composers have been inspired by it since the 17th Century. Some representative musical works from the great quantity of the repertoire-the lyrical theater in this case-can demonstrate certain tendencies in the musical reception of Don Quijote. A comparison of operatic adaptations of Don Quijote throughout the centuries shows that each epoch has its own interpretation and musical vision, shown in the various forms adopted, such as burlesque, tragicomedy, experimental musical theater, and so forth.
