Qui s'attendrait à voir l'Opéra-Comique s'emparer de la question de l'esclavage ? En 1842, alors que s'avivent les débats autour de la situation des esclaves dans les colonies et de la répression de la traite négrière, Eugène Scribe écrit un opéra-comique dans lequel « un jeune homme élevé en France, loin de ses parents, qu'il ne connaît pas, a lieu de croire qu'il est d'une famille noble. Il revient dans la colonie et par bonheur retrouve sa mère. Mais il est reconnu par un esclave et vendu au profit du gouvernement suivant le code noir. » (Edith E. Lucas) L'opéra-comique aurait-t-il contribué à bouleverser les consciences ?

La Vieille, Opera-comique En 1 Acte...

L'un des auteurs dramatiques les plus jou�s du xixe si�cle, en France comme dans le reste du monde1, Eug�ne Scribe a �t� �lu � l'Acad�mie fran�aise en 1834. La c�l�brit� dont il a joui de son vivant contraste singuli�rement avec l'oubli total dans lequel son oeuvre est tomb�e de nos jours.
