The prototype for "Manon" by Jules Massenet was the novel "Manon Lescaut" by Abbé Prévost, in which the author included many moments from his own life. An opera based on this novel was also written by Giacomo Puccini and Daniel Auber, but Massenet's work is most faithful to the original, only the ending has been changed. The libretto was written by Henri Meilhac and Philippe Gille. The world premiere of "Manon" took place on January 14, 1884 at the Parisian Opéra Comique. The audience received the new opera with mixed feelings. The composer was accused of, inter alia, too much wagnerism in the musical layer, which was perceived badly in France in the 1880s. The work has withstood the test of criticism and began to be successfully performed on the world's largest opera houses.
