About the Book

English Summary: The author makes an innovative contribution to cultural and gender history at the transition from early modern times to the 19th century. In detailed analyses of the worlds of life in the court and the residential town, the author explains the importance of castrato singers- how they repositioned themselves within courtly employment structures, interacted with the residents of the towns, and what important roles they played to family members. By examining the individual's handling of the supposed physical deficit, the author shows that the assumption that castrati were basically perceived as deficient mutilated bodies in the final phase of their existence must be revised. German Description: Kastratensanger standen bislang vor allem im Mittelpunkt des Forschungsinteresses der Musik- und Theaterwissenschaften. Dabei wurden vor allem ihr Wirken auf den Buhnen des italienischen Musiktheaters des 17. und 18. Jahrhunderts oder die Rezeption der hohen Mannerstimme auf das barocke Publikum beleuchtet. Die vorliegende geschichtswissenschaftliche Studie konzentriert sich hingegen auf die Personen als soziale Akteure in der Spatphase dieses Phanomens im 18. und fruhen 19. Jahrhundert, wobei exemplarisch vier mitteleuropaische Furstenhofe (Wien, Munchen, Dresden, Stuttgart) in den Blick genommen werden. In detaillierten Analysen der Lebenswelten des Hofes und der Residenzstadt fachert die Autorin auf, welchen hohen Stellenwert Kastratensanger innerhalb der hofischen Machtreprasentation bis zum Schluss besassen, wie sie sich innerhalb hofischer Anstellungsstrukturen immer wieder erneut positionierten, mit den Bewohnern der Residenzstadte interagierten und welche wichtigen Rollen sie gegenuber Familienangehorigen einnahmen. Insbesondere durch die Untersuchung des individuellen Umgangs mit dem vermeintlichen korperlichen Defizit kann sie zeigen, dass die Annahme, Kastraten seien in der Endphase ihres Bestehens grundsatzlich als defizitare verstummelte Korper wahrgenommen worden, revidiert werden muss. Auf diese Weise leistet die Autorin einen innovativen Beitrag zur Kultur- und Geschlechtergeschichte am Ubergang von der Fruhen Neuzeit ins 19. Jahrhundert.
