La Traviata (original title in Italian, which in Spanish could be translated as La extraviada) is a three-act opera with music by Giuseppe Verdi and libretto in Italian by Francesco Maria Piave, based on the novel by Alexandre Dumas (son) "La dame aux camellias" (1852), although not directly but through a theatrical adaptation. Originally titled "Violetta" - the name of the main character - it appears to be based on the life of a Parisian courtesan, Alphonsine Plessis.
