Introducing Wagner

Type Book

Rate 0.0 /5

"Wagner's operatic works rank with the supreme achievements of western culture. But acceptance of Wagner's musical genius is tempered by feelings of misgiving and many believe the composer's underlying ideas to be indefensible. A self-styled social revolutionary, Wagner thought the world could be redeemed through vegetarianism and Aryan philosophy. This graphic guide separates the composer's art from the ideas and the arrogant destructive personal behavior of the man."--Amazon.com.
