| Puccini became the second most influential operatic composer subsequent to Verdi due to his profoundly moving operatic plot as well as the beautifully fresh, structurally careful music. Puccini's works, which expose factually social inequality and injustice, score a success by portraying tragic female characters. The present thesis, taking the tragic females of Puccini's operas as its researching perspective, sorts out thoroughly the modeling approaches from each of his operas so as to gain a deep insight into Puccini's creative purpose and in turn a even deeper and more accurate grasp of his operatic female characters in the future singing, teaching and academic research. |
