And how is it, that she
can hold the rush of
untarnished joy within
a friction towel of wit?
People will point to
the anesthetic risk in
humor in a season of
acute public crisis,
but when we listen to
the philosophes of the
ancien régime in France,
is it for the satire, or
the music?
Just where did Cherubino
come from?
Pierre-Augustin Caron de Beaumarchais
1732 - 1799
Le mariage de Figaro
ou La folle journée
Paris, 1784
