Herodiade (French: Hérodiade) is an opera in four acts by the French composer Jules Massenet. The French libretto was written by Paul Millier and Henri Gremon based on Gustave Flaubert's novel Herodiade (1877). The premiere took place on December 19, 1881 in Brussels at the Theater of La Monnet. The Directorate of the Paris Opera (Auguste Emmanuel Vaucorbey) rejected Massenet's opera due to the weakness of the libretto. It was revised with the participation of Andre Zanardini, and in 1884 the opera was staged in Paris.
