On his First Sight of Clorinda

Ah! what sorcery is this? Light and shade conspire, In an instant, to dismiss Conceptions held just prior:

Instead of loose unbutton’d plaid, A silken robe dissembles; Snow-curl’d, sunflowered, stocking-clad— Entirely chang’d! One trembles.

Like that Greek hunter in the tale, Entranced at Dian’s spring, Now I go red, and then go pale, Athrill as a pluck’d string.

How marvellous well the change is wrought— Until the curtain falls, Recall in vain the lad you sought To find within these halls.

Alchemy, thy name is gender- Deign thy power to surrender. O, what wonders! o, what splendor! —o, what heady, stunning splendor!

#La Cenerentola #my writing #poetry #let us enshroud this post in a deluge of others #but i worked really hard on these rhymes so I want to share them #the last seven lines were much sadder but then I got some sleep and turned it around

Non-English "Cinderella" adaptations that might have influenced Disney's 2015 live action remake

Rossini's La Cenerentola (Italian opera, 1817). In the opera, the king has died, and the prince's search for a bride is motivated by his pending coronation. (The 2010 German Märchenperlen version also makes this choice.) In the 2015 film, the king is mortally ill, and later dies after the ball. Thus the opera's Cinderella and her 2015 counterpart both ascend straight to the throne in the end. Also, the opera's "fairy godfather" Alidoro disguises himself as a beggar and rewards Cinderella for treating him kindly, just as the 2015 Fairy Godmother does. (Although the Fairy Godmother also does this in Prokofiev's famous ballet.) The opera's Prince Ramiro also has a constant male companion, his valet Dandini, much like 2015's Kit has the Captain of the Guard (although many versions of Cinderella's prince have similar companions). Last but not least, both princes disguise themselves as a servant at some point: Ramiro switches clothes with Dandini for the ball to observe the true characters of the ladies, while Kit disguises himself as a guard to secretly observe the slipper-fitting.

Three Nuts (or Three Wishes) for Cinderella (Czech/German, 1973). In both this version and the 2015 film, Cinderella steals a few moments of freedom by riding her horse into the forest, and there she meets the prince on a hunt and stops him from shooting a deer. (Although in the 1973 film she throws a snowball at him, he chases her, and they taunt each other, while in the 2015 version they share a philosophical discussion about kindness and tell each other a little about their lives.) Both of these versions also hark back to the Grimms' tale early on, with Cinderella's father figure (the manservant Vincek in 1973, her actual father in 2015) going on a journey, and Cinderella asking for the first branch that hits his nose (1973) or brushes his shoulder (2015) as a gift. (In 1973 the branch contains the three magic hazelnuts that take the place of the Fairy Godmother in this version, while in 2015 it doesn't serve the plot, but is poignantly brought to her by the messenger who breaks the news of her father's death.)

Sechs auf einen Strech ("Six at one Blow"): Aschenputtel ("Cinderella") (German, 2011). Cinderella repeats a mantra that she learned from her mother: "You must never lose courage." In the 2015 film, she has a similar mantra, also from her mother: "Have courage and be kind." She also first meets the prince while he's hunting in the woods in this version, and the end sees them about to become king and queen, though in this case the old king is still alive, he just chooses to retire.

Zolushka (Russian, 1947). Cinderella has blonde hair, which she wears in fluffy shoulder-length curls at the ball, while the prince has wavy chestnut brown hair. (These could be coincidences, though.) The Fairy Godmother first appears as a humbly dressed old woman (although not as a beggar in 1947), then reveals her true, magical and glamorous form. The prince is also portrayed with boyish vulnerability as well as with courtly charm, and he even cries in one scene. (The '47 prince in the woods when he thinks he's lost Cinderella forever, 2015's Kit at his father's deathbed.)

When I posted my review of the 2015 film, @ariel-seagull-wings noticed the parallels with the 1947 Russian version. She suggested that Kenneth Branagh might have been influenced by that version, since British viewers are more likely than Americans to see the adaptations from continental Europe. The more I think about it, the more I realize that Branagh and the 2015 screenwriter Chris Weitz might have been influenced by more than one European Cinderella.

ROUND 2A, MATCH 8 OUT OF 8!

Propaganda Under the Cut:

Mia Basile:

Her stepmother murdered her father in front of her and she became mute from the trauma. She has 6 stepsiblings who are all assassins and make her clean up their kills. She lives on a ship with hologram ghosts in futuristic Naples. Beats up the man who ordered her father's death

La Cenerentola:

Maybe she's a pretty basic Cinderella, kind and sweet and forgiving, but I do just love this opera.

I just went to opera today (for something totally different tho) so... here's the whole Rossini's La Cenerentola for you. (For the impatient people, who want to skip the overture, singing starts at about 8 mins and Cinderella's first part at about 9:30 XD)

[vulnerasti-cor-meum]

honestly some of my favorite moments in rossini's la cenerentola are in Act 1 (signor! una parola) (image 1) and in Act 2 (Ah signor, s'è ver che in petto) (images 2-4) where in each isntance Ramiro and Dandini take turns weaving in an out the same phrases which in turn build into a climax. they're very affecting movements and show (even if conventionally) the relationships among the characters (Ramiro and Dandini the heroes are always parallel/singing the same phrases over and against Don Magnifico) and I could listen to them over and over
