In Search of Wagner by Adorno, Theodor W.
ISBN: 9781844673445 PUBLISHER: Verso Books FORMAT: Paperback PAGES: 160 PUBLICATION DATE: 18.6.2009 DIMENSIONS: 19 x 12 x 1 centimetres 8 ounces
DESCRIPTION: Written in exile from Germany, this potent study of Europe s most controversial composer explodes the frontiers of musical and cultural analysis. Measuring key elements of Wagner s oeuvre with patent musical dexterity, Adorno sheds light on a nineteenth-century bourgeois figure whose operas betray the social gestures and high-culture fantasies that helped plant the seeds of the modern Culture Industry. A foreword by Slavoj i(ek situates Adorno s reflections within present debates over Wagner s anti-Semitism and the moral status of his work, proving why this book remains one of the most important character studies of the twentieth century."
