Bayreuth by Frederic Spotts
This study is a critical analysis of the performances and productions of the operatic festival established by Richard Wagner in 1876. Around this artistic history the book traces the institution's association with nationalism and racism, and its postwar liberation from its anti-semitic past.
Spotts, Frederic: - Frederic Spotts has written numerous books on European political and cultural affairs. His study of Bayreuth is regarded as the standard work on the subject. Hitler and the Power of Aesthetics was written while Spotts was a visiting scholar at the Institute for International Affairs at UC Berkeley.
