A ''parade'' is a type of French street entertainment which originated during the Renaissance. It consisted of a group of entertainers, which could include actors, singers, dancers, jugglers, and other types of performers, who took part in parades (in the usual sense of the word) and entertained spectators at those times when the procession stopped moving.〔Bartlet, M. Elizabeth C., "Parade" in Sadie 1992, vol. 3, p. 850.〕 In the 18th century the term was applied to short improvisational buffooneries, typically incorporating vulgarities, which were performed either on an outdoor platform or a balcony in order to entice passersby into show-booths and theatres at the fairs or on the Boulevard du Temple. The characters were often drawn from the ''commedia dell'arte'' tradition. According to M. Elizabeth C. Bartlet "the humour was of the crudest sort, relying on sexual innuendos or even explicit remarks and actions, obscene gestures and references to defecation and other bodily functions."〔〔Londré 1991, p. 58.〕 The ''parades'' strongly influenced the 18th-century genre of ''comédie-parade'', a type of play or ''opéra-comique'', usually in one act, which also used characters from the ''commedia dell'arte''. These pieces were a bit more refined and polite, at least when presented in public theatres.〔 Gabriel Jacques de Saint-Aubin - A Street Show in Paris (La Parade du Boulevard) - WGA20657.jpg | ParadeBoulevardTemple.jpg | A French 'parade' in the 18th century - Pougin 1887 p581.jpg | == Notes == 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Parade (French street entertainment)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
