Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'The Truth About Wagner' is a compelling biographical investigation into the life and legacy of the legendary German composer, Richard Wagner. Drawing upon significant primary sources, including the then-newly discovered Burrell Collection of letters and documents, Philip Dutton Hurn offers a revisionist perspective on Wagner's personal history. The work focuses heavily on the composer's relationship with his first wife, Minna Wagner, and seeks to correct the idealized or biased narratives established by earlier biographers and the Bayreuth circle.
