title = "Quelques nouvelles observations sur 'Herminie' de Berlioz (1828)",
abstract = "This essay proceeds via a sequence of considerations: the story of Herminia within Tasso's epic poem, 'Gerusalemme Liberata'; the libretto of the cantata 'Herminie'; Berlioz's orchestral epilogue; Berlioz's compositional concerns in 1828; the later-famous 'id{\'e}e fixe' theme (Symphonie fantastique), which is here associated with Tancr{\`e}de. The conclusion is that 'Herminie' evinces an important development in the imaginative uses of an 'id{\'e}e fixe', one which was to be further fructified by Berlioz's experience of hearing Beethoven's Fifth Symphony.",
