| rdfs:comment | - Offenbach était un compositeur immigré allemand de 1819 jusqu'à sa mort à Paris un peu plus tard. Son petit nom était Jacob mais comme c'est ostensiblement Juif et qu'il était probablement visionnaire, il a bien compris qu'il était stratégique en Allemagne de changer de prénom. Comme il disposait d'une imagination débordante et de près de cent ans devant lui (mais peut-être l'ignorait-il) il choisi Jacques, mais s'il avait était un peu plus visionnaire encore il se serait appelé Jack, quoique, durant le second empire il est probable que ça se soit remarqué.
- Offenbach's numerous operettas, such as Orpheus in the Underworld, and La belle Hélène, were extremely popular in both France and the English-speaking world during the 1850s and 1860s. They combined political and cultural satire with witty grand opera parodies. His popularity in France went down during the 1870s after the Second Empire, and he fled France, but during the last years of his life, his popularity rebounded, and several of his operettas are still performed. While his name remains associated most closely with the French operetta and the Second Empire, it is Offenbach's one fully operatic masterpiece, The Tales of Hoffmann (Les Contes d'Hoffmann), composed at the end of his career, that has become the most familiar of Offenbach's works in major opera houses.
