Aspects of Wagner by Bryan Magee

An analysis of Wagner, his music, stage directions, prose and his influence on the culture of our age, with a discussion of the reasons for the reactions his work has provoked. Magee sheds light on Wagner's anti-semitic ideas and the way these were used by the Nazis for their own ends.
`Original and stimulating..the most lucid attempt I have yet read to explain the reasons for the continuing Wagner's music over friend and foe alike.' Music and Musicians
Writer, critic, broadcaster, author of Men of Ideas (OPB) and The Great Philosophers, Bryan Magee is Honorary Senior Research Fellow in the History of Ideas at King's College, London.
