reading an academic article with a take so bad i don't want to highlight it bc it doesn't deserve it but i have to bc i know i'll need to refer to it later when i tear it to absolute shreds
#what tf do you mean alfonso rapes fenella that literally does not happen#they have sex then he says he can't marry her after all bc of class difference/he has a fiancée of appropriate rank#that's something else. also fenella explicitly asks her brother not to go and try to kill alfonso bc she says she still loves him#also when alfonso and his fiancée arrive at their house and ask for sanctuary fenella asks masaniello to give it to them#do you think these are the actions of a woman who was raped. in a 19th century opera.#sucks so bad that i can't even fit all of my hangups abt this into my chapter bc it isn't abt all that#the good thing however is that the author of this article was american and could probably read french. but not dutch.#which means i can actually invalidate some of the claims she makes. bc i have information from dutch sources that she didnt have#(abt the belgian revolution)#curry rambles
