This is an extensive collection of essays on German composer Richard Wagner's career, cultural relationships, and psychology. The contributors, most of whom are considered among the world's leading Wagner experts, also discuss such pertinent subjects as the political exploitation of Wagner's work by the Nazis. The superb volume, originally published in German as Wagner Handbuch in 1986, is nearly exhaustive in scope. Each essay was rendered in English by a different translator, and esteemed translation editor Deathridge (music, King's Coll.) is responsible for the compilation's cohesiveness.--James E. Perone "Library Journal "
The "Wagner Handbook" aims to provide a comprehensive guide to understanding Wagner's music, his artistic development, and the impact of his ideas - in his own time and in succeeding generations. From a chronological overview of Wagner's operas, to concise and insightful chapters on each important aspect of his music - this volume offers information that should satisfy Wagner fans and seasoned opera buffs. Central pieces include an account of Wagner's place in music history by Carl Dahlhaus; Werner Breig's treatment of individual musical works; Peter Wapnewski's discussion of Wagner's operatic works as literature; Isolde Vetter's chapter on Wagner in the history of psychology; Jens Malte Fischer and Oswald Bauer on performance questions over the years. Pieces on other topics - the individuals who most powerfully influenced the composer and those he influenced, his impact on music history, and political exploitation of his ideas - are drawn, rounding out this compendium.
