Abstract

alsowho is included and excluded from academic conversations. To be clear, I do not wish to place blame onLacombe or anyofmy colleagues for this; I see this instead as a structural concern, albeit one that became visible with particular clarity while considering this book. In privileging archives as a precondition for determining originality and value, we quietly push to the side thosewho cannot access such resources due to disability, funds or distance, and we thus inadvertently create an increasingly homogeneous, wealthy, privileged, abled andwhite norm for scholars in our field. This has likely biased our field, but it can be overcome. It helps, for example, thatmassive digitization projects like Bibliothèque nationale’s Gallica have made an ever-growing number of sources from Paris available remotely. Such projects, however, continue to prioritize better-known materials whose scholarly value is readily apparent rather than materials whose potential may yet be unrecognized. This is especially true of material that remains uncatalogued. Thus – for now, at least – scholars able to consult materials in situ hold an advantage within a discipline that favours such archival work. Projects that embrace the globalization and creolization of archival work will also help: Jann Pasler’s current European Research Council project could prove a crucial litmus test here, just as Claire Rowden and Richard Langham Smith’s Carmen Abroad has already created an excellentmodel for howa project withworldwide aspirations might look. Beyond this, crafting scholarly space for critical rereadings and reconsiderations of pieces, practices and evidence (as happens constantly in the study of literature) could bring critical minds from more diverse backgrounds into the fold without demanding archival access as a precondition for academic value. Thus this collection does more than just highlight and celebrate the exemplary work on nineteenth-century French opera that has been conducted so far. Looking ahead, it also indicates both implicitly and explicitly the innovative work that remains. May it serve as a firm foundation for new scholars whose work will explore horizons we can barely see.

还有,谁被包括在学术对话中,谁被排除在外。需要澄清的是,我不希望将此事归咎于拉科姆或我的任何同事;相反,我认为这是一个结构性问题,尽管在考虑这本书时,这个问题变得特别清晰。在将档案作为决定原创性和价值的先决条件的特权中,我们悄悄地将那些因残疾、资金或距离而无法获得这些资源的人推到一边,因此我们无意中为我们这个领域的学者创造了一种日益同质化、富有、特权、有能力和白人的规范。这可能会对我们的研究领域产生偏见,但这是可以克服的。例如,像法国国家图书馆(biblioth nationale’s Gallica)这样的大规模数字化项目,使得越来越多的巴黎资源可以远程获取。然而,这些项目继续优先考虑那些学术价值显而易见的知名材料,而不是那些潜力尚未被认识到的材料。对于尚未编目的材料尤其如此。因此,至少就目前而言,能够就地查阅资料的学者在一个支持此类档案工作的学科中占有优势。拥抱档案工作全球化和克里奥尔化的项目也会有所帮助:詹恩·帕斯勒目前的欧洲研究委员会项目可能是一个至关重要的试金石,就像克莱尔·罗登和理查德·朗廷·史密斯的《卡门在国外》已经为一个具有全球抱负的项目创造了一个很好的模型一样。除此之外,为批判性重读和重新考虑作品、实践和证据(就像在文学研究中不断发生的那样)创造学术空间,可以将来自更不同背景的批判性思维引入其中,而无需将档案访问作为学术价值的先决条件。因此,这个合集不仅仅是突出和庆祝19世纪法国歌剧的典范作品,迄今为止已经进行了。展望未来,它还含蓄地和明确地指出了仍然存在的创新工作。愿它成为新学者的坚实基础,他们的工作将探索我们几乎看不到的地平线。
