On 14 October 1628 the Medici court witnessed a performance of Marco da Gagliano's opera "La Flora", a work whose ostensible purpose was to celebrate a marriage uniting Florence and parma. This event occured three months after Ferdinando II assumed the title of grand duke of Ruscany, ending a period of regency government that had begun in 1621, during which Ferdinando's mother and grandmother ruled Tuscany. An analysis of "La Flora" reveals that its allegorical themes extend beyond mere celebration of a wedding, and that the opera actually reenacts the transfer of power from female to male rule | |
