Endangered Heart : Image Schemas as the Organising Principle of Direction-scenographic Concept for the Brno Production of Händel’s Alcina

Original language description

This paper explores the role of scenography in the meaning-making process in operatic performances, particularly focusing on the 2022 Brno production of Händel’s Alcina directed by Jiří Heřman. The study employs methodology from cognitive science, specifically image schemas and multimodality, to analyse how scenography interacts with other modalities like music and text to create a cohesive theatrical experience. T he paper argues that image schemas are central to organising the perceptual and conceptual structures that convey emotions, particularly in the lamento aria “Ah! mio cor.” The scenography’s spatial elements are shown to enhance the emotional intensity and thematic depth of the opera, highlighting the significance of cross-modal mappings or correspondences in the audience’s perception and interpretation.
