Overview
From the historical point of view, Salome is part of the scion of powerful and politically engaged women that characterized the House of Hasmoneus (and the House of Herod), from Queen Salome Alexandra to Alexandra the Hasmonean, Mariamne, Herodias, Berenice, Drusilla, and others.
Josephus introduces Salome as the daughter of Herod II and Herodias. Her paternal grandparents were Herod the Great and Mariamne II, while another son of Herod the Great, Aristobulus IV and his wife Berenice I were her maternal grandparents. She was thus related to both the House of Herod and the House of Hasmoneus.
After her mother's divorce and remarriage, Salome grew up as the step-daughter of her uncle Herod Antipas. Some legendary Christian accounts narrate of her involvement in the death of John the Baptist.
Still an adolescent, Salome was given as wife to her uncle Herod Philip, son of Herod the Great. A young widow, she remarried with Aristobulus of Chalcis, from whom she had three sons named Herod, Agrippa and Aristobulus (see Ant XVIII 136-137).
Nothing else is known about her life and death.
Research on Salome however is limited by the paucity of historical sources and the legendary nature of the Gospel account. Scholars have rather focused on the study of the Salome legend and its ramifications in literature and the arts.
Salome, in fiction
The character of Salome has been subjected in fiction to a dramatic metamorphosis, from innocent child or indifferent teenager to powerful icon of morbid female seductiveness (and anti-Semitism). Salome is one of the most successful and recognizable characters from Second Temple Judaism in modern culture.
In medieval Christian iconography, Salome is portrayed as an innocent child, the passive instrument of her mother's revenge. By the 16th century, the character has matured into a teenager, now more indifferent than innocent to the drama in which she has been involved. The turning point is the second half of the 19th century when Salome is transformed into an Oriental beauty, fully self-conscious of her power of seduction. In the works of Oscar Wilde and Richard Strauss she becomes the epitome of the femme fatale, a sensual, morbid and sadistic character who destroys the men she loves.

Salome, in ancient sources
The character of Salome is mentioned both in Josephus and in the Gospels of Mark and Matthew.
The Gospels of Mark and Matthew (which do not mention her name or any other incidents in her life) suggest her (involuntary) involvement in the death of John the Baptist. They tell us that as a girl she danced before her uncle (and now step-father) Herod Antipas. At the instigation of her mother Herodias, she requested and obtained the head of John the Baptist as her reward from the king.
Josephus (who does not mention Salome in his account of the death of John the Baptist), in a genealogical list of the descendants of Herod the Great, talks briefly of her life as the daughter of Herod II and Herodias, and the step-daughter of Herod Antipas after her mother's divorce and remarriage. Salome was given as wife to her uncle Herod Philip, son of Herod the Great. A young widow, she remarried with Aristobulus of Chalcis, from whom she had three sons named Herod, Agrippa and Aristobulus (see Ant XVIII 136-137).
The story of Salome and her involvement in the death of John the Baptist is repeated also in Islamic traditions.
Salome, in visual arts
The image of Salome in visual arts changes dramatically over the centuries. In the earliest representations she is a pretty, innocent girl. Then gradually she becomes a young woman (now more indifferent than innocent before the events, which are still determined by her mother, Herodias). At the end of the 19th century she takes central stage. She is now an Oriental beauty and the villain of the story, fully self-conscious of her power of seduction.

Salome, in music
Salome first emerged as a "singing" character in the tradition of the oratorios since the end of the 17th century. The first oratorio to be recorded as having Salome among its characters is San Giovanni Battista (St. John the Baptist / 1675 Stradella / Ansaldi), oratorio. As in all "biblical oratorios," the protagonist is John the Baptist and the plot closely follows the biblical narrative.
Among the most celebrated oratorios dealing with the death of John the Baptist is also Il Batista (1727 Caldara / Zeno), oratorio, which premiered in Vienna in 1727. It is the first of which the name of the interpreter of Salome is recorded--"Signora Helvertin."
The season of the "biblical" oratorios ended with St John the Baptist (1873 Macfarren / Monk), oratorio. The transition to the opera came with Hérodiade (1881). In Jules Massenet's opera the character of Salome takes central stage and a life of her own but still preserves her "biblical" innocence. In the 1880s Hérodiade" was performed in Belgium, Italy, France, Germany and in 1892 reached New Orleans.
Everything changed in 1896 with the premiere in Paris of Salomé (Salome / 1893 Wilde), play. Salome lost her innocence and became the embodiment of the femme fatale who seduces and destroys her lovers. The "Salomania" spread in every corner of Europe and America.
Based on Wilde's play, Richard Strauss's Salome premiered in Dresden on 9 December 1905 (starring Marie Wittich in the title role). It was an immediate success. In 1906 the opera was performed in a dozen theaters, including Graz, Cologne, Berlin (starring Emmy Destinn), Turin, and Milan (under the direction of Arturo Toscanini). In spite of the composer's invitation to look at the opera as nothing more than "a scherzo with a fatal conclusion," many regarded it as a gruesome middlebrow entertainment. When the opera opened at the New York Metropolitan Opera on 22 January 1907, accusations of vulgarity and indecency led to the cancellation of the show and the opera would not be performed again at the Met until 1934. In Austria, Russia and other countries the opera was banned even before being performed.
And yet, Strauss's Salome was an unstoppable success. In March 1907 the French version of the opera premiered in Brussels, of which a scaled-down rendition was also given in Paris a few days before the German version opened there at the Théâtre du Châtelet on 8 May 1907 under the direction of the composer. Aino Ackté played Salome in the 1907 Leipzig premiere as well as in the 1910 London premiere. In spite of the Met's boycott, the Salomania hit New York again at the Manhattan Opera House in 1909 with Mary Garden.
Among the early interpreters of Strauss's Salome are Göta Ljungberg, Maria Jeritza, Maria Cebotari, and Christle Goltz, Probably the most famous of all was the Bulgarian soprano Ljuba Welitsch, who sang it in the presence of the composer at a performance given to mark his 80th birthday in Vienna in 1944.
Strauss's Salome is regularly staged in the major opera theaters and is now available also in numerous sound and video recordings, featuring interpreters such as Birgitt Nilsson, Leonie Rysanek, Hildegard Behrens, Montserrat Caballé, Josephine Barstow, Catherine Malfitano, Maria Ewing, Nadja Michael, Karita Mattila and Angela Denoke.
Although overshadowed by Strauss's Salome, Massenet's Hérodiade has not ceased to be performed and recorded, offering the soprano the intriguing possibility to play the same role in two different operas.

Performing Salome (opera & oratorio)
Salome has been a singing character in oratorios since the 17th century. The first recorded interpreter of Salome is "Signora Helvertin," who sang the role at the Vienna premiere of Il Batista (1727 Caldara / Zeno), oratorio.
Thanks to Massenet, Strauss and Mariotte, Salome has become a leading character also in the opera, interpreted by the most celebrated sopranos.
Marthe Duvivier and Emma Calvé was the first interpreter of Massenet's Hérodiade.
In 1905 Marie Wittich created the character of Salome in Strauss's opera. Among the early interpreters of Strauss's Salome are Göta Ljungberg, Maria Jeritza, Maria Cebotari, and Christle Goltz, Probably the most famous of all was the Bulgarian soprano Ljuba Welitsch, who sang it in the presence of the composer at a performance given to mark his 80th birthday in Vienna in 1944.

Salome, in dance
In the Gospel narrative the unnamed daughter of Herodias (Salome) "danced" before her uncle (and now step-father) Herod Antipas. He was so pleased to grant her any wishes, including the head of John the Baptist. Christian iconography represented the scene. Hence, whoever performs Salome is expected to be a dancer (at least, also a dancer), even when she is primarily an actress or a singer.
In 1895 Loie Fuller was the first solo dancer to present a Salome piece and she did it in line with the "biblical" view of Salome as an innocent child. But the great success of Oscar Wilde's play (in Paris [1896] and Berlin [1902]) and Richard Strauss's opera (Berlin [1905]) changed radically the popular view of Salome, from innocent chid to femme fatale.
In Wilde and Strauss the dance of Salome became the epitome of her seductiveness. The "colonial" fashion and prejudice of the time made them to reimagine her dance as a lascivious "Oriental" dance--the Dance of the Seven Veils. Both classical and vaudeville dancers contributed to create the tragic character of a seductive and perverse woman that ultimately destroys herself with the object of her own desires. They offered solo performances, or substituted actresses and singers who were unable or unwilling (for reasons of decency) to perform the Dance of the Seven Veils. And when professional dancers were not involved, actresses and singers turned into dancers, offering some remarkable dancing performances on stage or on the screen.
The Salome craze, or Salomania (as it was renamed by Percival Polland in the New York Time in late August 1908), reached its peak in the years 1907-09, when the Dance of Salome attracted the attention of the most famous ballerinas, becoming for some time a fever that spread in all Europe and the United States. It started in Europe with The Vision of Salome by Canadian-American dancer Maud Allan, which premiered in Vienna in December 1906 and then appeared in some of the major European theaters, in Budapest, Berlin, Marienbad, finally to triumph at the Palace Theatre in London in March 1908. In line with the new identity of femme fatale of the character, in November 1907 Loise Fuller performed in Paris a very different Salome from her first work on the subject, on music specifically composed by Florent Schmitt.
In the meantime, Strauss's Salome had been first performed in New York on 22 January 1907. As was common practice, dancer Bianca Froelich substituted soprano Olive Fremstad during Salome's Dance of the Seven Veils. Her realistic performance contributed to the scandal and the show was cancelled within days. By public demand, Froelich immediately began performing her opera choreography at the Lincoln Square Variety Theater before wildly enthusiastic audiences. Almost overnight, all Oriental dancers in the vaudeville became "Salome dancers". The film If You Had a Wife Like This, released on 23 May 1907, included a "Salome Dance" and so did the Ziegfeld Follies of 1907, performed by Mdlle. Dazie. The show opened on 9 July 1907 at the Jardin de Paris in New York.
The scandal of the New York premiere and the success of these early performances by Bianca Froelich and Mdlle. Dazie inspired Gertrude Hoffman to offer her own interpretation of the Vision of Salome. In April 1908 she traveled to England with her husband with the specific goal of getting Allan's dance, which was enjoying a lasting success in London. On 13 July 1908 Gertude Hodffman's show opened at Hammerstein's Paradise Garden Roof Theater. It was an overnight sensation and every vaudeville theatre staged its own Salome dance. In the Summer 1908 newspapers and journals in the United States denounced an outbreak of "The Salome Epidemic": "There are no many dancers appearing as the daughter of Herodias that it is impossible to make more than a guess at their number. There is hardly a vaudeville house that cannot boast its own Salome, whether it be Hammerstein's Roof Garden, the Casino, the Alhambra, or a third or four class hall" (The Sketch 63 [1908] 345). Among the most celebrated American vaudeville dancers to specialize as "Salome dancers" were Hilde Caroll, La Sylphe, Lotta Faust, Vera Olcott (Theatre Unique), Eva Tanguay, La Belle Zola, La Petite Adelaide, and Aida Overton Walker. The cinema's contribution to "Salomania" included in 1908 lavish performances by Florence Lawrence and Stacia Napierkowska. When in 1909 Strauss's Salome returned at New York at the Manhattan Opera House, it was a triumph. Enthusiastic audiences rushed to see soprano Mary Garden performing herself a much daring version of the Dance of the Seven Veils.
Even when the "epidemic" was over, Salome remained a fashionable presence on stage and on screen. New productions of Schmitt's ballet were performed in Paris in the 1910s and 1920s. In 1912 in a private performance at Palazzo Barberini before the Prince of San Faustino, Mata Hari used the Strauss music and played a topless and laughing Salome. On the screen, some of most popular actresses competed to offer the definitive portrait of Salome, including Vittoria Lepanto (1910), Theda Bara (1918), and Alla Nazimova (1922).
After some pause in the 1930s, the story of Salome once again returned to be an inspiring force for dancers and choreographers in the late 1940s.
Many famous choreographers have recreated Salomé's Dance of the Seven Veils for productions of either the Wilde play or the Strauss opera, including Maurice Bejart, Mark Morris (Seattle Opera, 1986), and Doug Varone (Metropolitan Opera, 2004). Some have created solo performances or ballets, based on the music of Strauss or other musicians who like Florent Schmitt, have composed music specifically for the Salome dance.
Following the example of Mary Garden, some sopranos have distinguished themselves not only for their vocal skill but also as celebrated performers of the Dance of the Seven Veils. Among them are Ljuba Welitsch (in the 1940s), Maria Ewing (in the 1980s), Catherine Malfitano (in the 1990s), Karita Mattila and Nadja Michael (in the 2000s).
Among the most notable actresses to perform Salome as a dancer on screen are Rita Hayworth and Brigid Bazlen. Only in Pasolini's film The Gospel according to Matthew (1964), Salome, played by 12-year-old Paola Tedesco, was allowed to return an innocent child, playing an innocent, joyful dance before her parents, unaware of the consequences of her action.
While the two typologies of Salome, innocent child or perverse seductress, continue to coexist, in more recent decades a third typology has emerged in some productions that have given a homosexual understanding of the story.
In an interview published by Solomon Volkov in 1985, two years after the death of the choreographer, George Balanchine stated that he always believed that Oscar Wilde was "thinking of a pretty boy" when he wrote of Salome. The first production of Salome to play up a transvestite angle was the Italian film director Luchino Visconti's production of Strauss's opera at the Spoleto Festival in 1961, under the baton of Thomas Schippers. There the Dance of the Seven Veils was performed not by the soprano (Margaret Tynes) or a dancer, but by a group of young men. Choreographers Lyndsay Kemp in 1977 and Maurice Bejart in 1983 even more explicitly linked the character of Salome to transvestitism by adapting the role for a male dancer. Russell's film Salome's Last Dance (1987) located the representation of Wilde's work in an all-male brothel, revealing at the climax of the Dance of the Seven Veils that the "female" protagonist (Imogen Millais-Scott) was transgender.

Salome, in cinema
Salome is a marginal character in ancient sources (to the extent of being unnamed in the Gospel narratives). In fiction, however, she took a life of her own, gradually becoming the protagonist of the events related to the Death of John the Baptist. When the new art of cinematography started, the "Salomania" was at its peak after the 1893 play by Oscar Wilde and the 1905 opera by Richard Strauss. Salome entered the movies not as a marginal presence but as the protagonist of a long series of films that offered the most famous actresses (and dancers) a vehicle to show their charm and power of seduction.
Sound cinema has had less to offer. The most ambitious attempt at building an original series of events around Salome was made in 1953 with the epic Salome with Rita Hayworth. Most of the Salome movies are video-recordings of the Wilde or Strauss work.
Salome is conspicuously absent in the major Jesus movies with a few exceptions, notably, King of Kings (1961), Il vangelo secondo Matteo (1964). Salome must not be confused with Mary Salome, one of the Three Marys, a character often billed simply as "Salome" in many Jesus movies.
