Book Tristan s Shadow

Download or read book Tristan s Shadow written by Adrian Daub and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2013-11-25 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Das Rheingold, Die Walküre, and Siegfried. Parsifal. Tristan und Isolde. Both revered and reviled, Richard Wagner conceived some of the nineteenth century’s most influential operas—and created some of the most indelible characters ever to grace the stage. But over the course of his polarizing career, Wagner also composed volumes of essays and pamphlets, some on topics seemingly quite distant from the opera house. His influential concept of Gesamtkunstwerk—the “total work of art”—famously and controversially offered a way to unify the different media of an opera into a coherent whole. Less well known, however, are Wagner’s strange theories on sexuality—like his ideas about erotic acoustics and the metaphysics of sexual difference. Drawing on the discourses of psychoanalysis, evolutionary biology, and other emerging fields of study that informed Wagner’s thinking, Adrian Daub traces the dual influence of Gesamtkunstwerk and eroticism from their classic expressions in Tristan und Isolde into the work of the generation of composers that followed, including Zemlinsky, d’Albert, Schreker, and Strauss. For decades after Wagner’s death, Daub writes, these composers continued to grapple with his ideas and with his overwhelming legacy, trying in vain to write their way out from Tristan’s shadow.

Download or read book Parsifal And Tristan Und Isolde written by Richard Wagner and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-08-20 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Parsifal, And, Tristan Und Isolde: The Stories of Richard Wagner's Dramas, Told in English WE have tried to do here what, when we first came under the spell of Wagner, we often wished others had done for us: we have tried to re-tell the stories of two of his greatest dramas in language neither so bald as to be unreadable nor so pedantic as to be incomprehensible. These transcriptions are not to be considered as having a separate existence, nor are they intended to displace the various literal translations. All we modestly hope for is that they may help towards a rudimentary conception of what the plays are about.

Book Studies in Musical Genesis  Structure  and Interpretation

Download or read book Studies in Musical Genesis Structure and Interpretation written by William Kinderman and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2013-08-15 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study explores the evolution of the text and music of this inexhaustible yet highly controversial music drama across Wagner's entire career, and offers a reassessment of the ideological and political history of 'Parsifal' that illuminates the connection of Wagner's legacy to the rise of National Socialism in Germany. The compositional genesis is traced through many unfamiliar sketches and manuscript sources held at Bayreuth, revealing unsuspected models and veiled connections to Wagner's earlier works.

Download or read book Death Devoted Heart written by Roger Scruton and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2012-11-01 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A tale of forbidden love and inevitable death, the medieval legend of Tristan and Isolde recounts the story of two lovers unknowingly drinking a magic potion and ultimately dying in one another's arms. While critics have lauded Wagner's Tristan and Isolde for the originality and subtlety of the music, they have denounced the drama as a "mere trifle"--a rendering of Wagner's forbidden love for Matilde Wesendonck, the wife of a banker who supported him during his exile in Switzerland. Death-Devoted Heart explodes this established interpretation, 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. He also offers keen insight into the nature of erotic love, the sacred qualities of human passion, and the peculiar place of the erotic in our culture. His argument touches on the nature of tragedy, the significance of ritual sacrifice, and the meaning of redemption, providing a fresh interpretation of Wagner's masterpiece. Roger Scruton has written an original and provocative account of Wagner's music drama, which blends philosophy, criticism, and musicology in order to show the work's importance in the twenty-first century.
