Stories and Essays
Author(s): Charles Osborne (Editor)
The ten volumes of Wagner's complete works are often impenetrable. This is a collection of nine short pieces by Wagner, selected for their readability and the light they shed on his development as a composer. They include the short stories about an unsucessful Beethoven-worshipping composer, which Wagner first published in Paris, the essays On Opera Libretti and Composition, The Niebelungen - World History as Told in Saga and What is German?, and the notorious and influential antisemitic essay.
