JUDITH AND HOLOFERNES:A CHRONOLOGICAL LIST OF WORKS

FRANK CAPOZZIMilwaukee, Wisconsin

NTRODUCTION

Through many transformations and interpretations of the dramaticelements of the apocryphal story of Judith and Holofernes, the biblical talehas become part of our cultural heritage and has exerted a profound influenceon the creative spirit of writers and artists throughout the centuries.

The Book of Judith is divided into four major sections: Nebuchadnezzar’swars of aggression, with the description of the splendor and the cruelty of theOrient; the siege of Bethulia by the proud Holofernes and the sufferings ofthe people; Judith’s deceitful beguiling of Holofernes and the decapitation ofthe general; the triumphal return of Judith to Bethulia and the defeat of theAssyrian army.

The story of Judith contains all the elements of a mythical event: theheroine is called to perform a dangerous deed; she is swallowed by thedangerous unknown, Holofernes’ tent; she is granted the supernaturalassistance of God; she accomplishes her mission and safely returns toBethulia. Writers have capitalized on one or more of these dramatic momentsin order to express religious, patriotic, or social ideas, while artists haveusually limited their works to the most dramatic event, the beheading ofHolofernes, or to the return of Judith to Bethulia.

Before the middle of the sixteenth century, Judith is usually portrayed as amoral and religious heroine, a prefiguration of Mary and of the Church, andas a political heroine (Sacra rappresentazione di Judith). During the years ofthe Council of Trent and soon afterwards the heroine becomes a vehicle forreligious propaganda – the defender of the Catholic Church againstProtestantism (Stefano Tuccio’s Juditha), or for social comments – an attackagainst some of the problems of sixteenth-century society (Cesare Sacchetti’sRappresentazione di Giudith). In the tragedies written between 1580 and1625 (Giovanni Andrea Ploti’s Giuditta, Giovanni Battista Alberti’sOloferne, and Giovanni Angelo Lottini’s Giudetta) the heroine is portrayedas a mannered character coping with contradictions between impulsivepassion and political commitment. In Federico Della Valle’s tragedy Judith is

the heroine who rises above court intrigues and false passions; and thebiblical story becomes for the author a means to condemn the corruption ofthe courts. Today she has become the female heroine who fights for women’srights.

As in literature, in art there is also an evolution in the interpretation of thefigure of Judith. In medieval paintings and manuscript illustrations Judith isusually portrayed as an allegorical prefiguration of the Church or Mary, whileduring the Renaissance the heroine becomes a symbol, especially in Florence,of republicanism (the woman who single-handedly fought for freedomagainst tyranny – Donatello’s Judith and Holofernes). During the EarlyBaroque period (c. 1580-1625) the biblical story becomes a vehicle for highlydramatic action (Caravaggio, Artemisia Gentileschi) or for dazzling opulence(Fede Galizia, Antiveduto Gramatica). In the 18th and 19th centuries shebecomes a sex symbol, the temptress, the femme fatale, who destroys man(Klimt).

From the seventeenth century to the present the story of Judith has appearedin countless oratorios, among which the most famous are Vivaldi’s JudithaTriumphans (1716), and Metastasio’s Betulia Liberata (1734); it has been asubject for an opera by Cimarosa; for a play (18th century,) written in Siciliandialect; for an epic poem Ivditha Vindex et Vindicata (1628) by BatolomeoTortoletti; for a play by Luigi Douclou, Betulia Liberata (1832), written inJudeo-Italian dialect; for a sacra rappresentazine Bettulia liberata dal valoredi Giuditta (ca. 1775) by Gregorio Mancinelli, with servants speaking inRoman dialect; and for a ballet and various intermedii. According to Croceand D’Ancona the Rappresentazione di Giuditta was still performed in Italyduring the last century. One of the latest adaptations of the story has been theGiuditta (1948), by Carlo Terron, in which Judith is an Italian girl whosehouse is used by a German general (Holofernes) as the headquarters of hisoperations. The two main characters recognize their situation and are awareof their biblical mythical roles. At the end of the tragedy, the general ispoisoned with a glass of wine and Judith is shot with a pistol by her friendand lover, because she has dared to love the enemy. There have been variousfilms and television adaptations of the biblical story. The most unusualdepiction is by the American artist, Judith G. Klausner, who has done a three-dimensional depiction of the decapitation of Holofernes with mantises,fabric, paint, clay, and sand.

The story of Judith and Holofernes is a mythical representation of mankindbeing lost in a world without God, of the destruction of evil through the selfabnegation of a woman and the intercession of God, and of mankind’s searchfor peace, both political and religious.

When in the early 1970s I was writing my dissertation it was a timeconsuming research looking for literary and visual representation of thebiblical story; today, with the use of the Internet, one can easily researchlibraries and museums and galleries all over the world. The following list

does not pretend to be inclusive of all the works extant. Especially withmanuscript illuminations, and woodcuts and prints, when the artists mademany copies and later restrikes were done so the same work can be found invarious museums and art galleries or art dealers. Furthermore, I don’t list anyof the references about Judith in the religious and literary works, from theFather of the Church, to Dante and Shakespeare, Camille and Paglia.

Not all the works which I list have great literary or artistic importance.Therefore, except for the masterpieces by major artists, e.g. Caravaggio,Gentileschi, the oil paintings and the prints are not usually on display in themuseums which own them. The same could be said about the oratorios andthe musical compositions, which are rarely if ever staged or performed asthey were composed by minor musicians. Nevertheless, they are significantfor the knowledge and understanding of the period during which they werecreated. They are mirrors of the conditions intrinsic to a particular moment inhistory; therefore they show how the biblical tale of Judith and Holoferneshas been adopted and interpreted to suit the needs of the times.

I am planning to publish a more complete list in the future. Meanwhile, Iwould recommend the following bibliographical references.
