Описание: Richard Strauss` fifteen operas make up the largest German operatic legacy since Wagner`s operas of the nineteenth century. In the first book to discuss all of Strauss` operas, Bryan Gilliam explores the composer`s response to Wagner in his discussion of Strauss`s stage works and their historical contexts.
Описание: Death-Devoted Heart explodes the established interpretation of Wagner`s Tristan and Isolde, proving the drama to be more than just a sublimation of the composer`s love for Wesendonck or a wistful romantic dream. Scruton boldly attests that Tristan and Isolde has profound religious meaning and remains as relevant today as it was to Wagner`s contemporaries.

Описание: An essential Companion for those both familiar and unfamiliar with Der Ring des Nibelungen. It provides a concise introduction to both the composer and the work. Subsequent chapters focus on musical topics such as `leitmotif` and `structure`, as well as popular culture, Nazism, notable stage productions and critical analysis of the work.
Описание: Explores the relationship between aesthetics and anti-Semitism in two controversial landmarks in German culture. This book argues that Richard Wagner`s opera cycle "Der Ring des Nibelungen" and Fritz Lang`s 1920s film "Die Nibelungen" exploits contrasts between good and bad aesthetics to address the question of what is German and what is not.
Описание: Alexander H. Shapiro provides a fresh look at the influences on Wagner`s Goetterdammerung, and critically re-evaluates the composer`s intellectual worldview as revealed in his own prose works, letters and diary entries. The book challenges conventional views that continue to impede a clear understanding of this work`s meaning.

Описание:
William Kinderman's detailed study of Parsifal, described by the composer as his "last card," explores the evolution of the text and music of this inexhaustible yet highly controversial music drama across Wagner's entire career. This book offers a reassessment of the ideological and political history of Parsifal, shedding new light on the connection of Wagner's legacy to the rise of National Socialism in Germany. The compositional genesis is traced through many unfamiliar manuscript sources, revealing unsuspected models and veiled connections to Wagner's earlier works. Fresh analytic perspectives are revealed, casting the dramatic meaning of Parsifal in a new light. Much debated aspects of the work, such as Kundry's death at the conclusion, are discussed in the context of its stage history. Path-breaking as well is Kinderman's analysis of the religious and ideological context of Parsifal. During the half-century after the composer's death, the Wagner family and the so-called Bayreuth circle sought to exploit Wagner's work for political purposes, thereby promoting racial nationalism and anti-Semitism. Hitherto unnoticed connections between Hitler and Wagner's legacy at Bayreuth are explored here, while differences between the composer's politics as an 1849 revolutionary and the later response of his family to National Socialism are weighed in a nuanced account. Kinderman combines new historical research, sensitive aesthetic criticism, and probing philosophical reflection in this most intensive examination of Wagner's culminating music drama.
