(Hardback)

A hermeneutical analysis of Wagner's six single dramas from Hollander to Parsifal.

(Hardback)

This literary and critical approach to Wagner's Ring provides an original interpretation of the Ring tetralogy and challenges the standard political analyses of the work. The Ring is examined in the tradition of romantic drama as a reworking of Greek tragedy, theoretically expressed in the second part of Oper und Drama.

(Hardback)

By contrasting the Ring with the dramas of Schiller, Hebbel, Hofmannsthal, and Brecht, different facets of Wagner's work are highlighted beyond theoretical generalizations or broad overviews.
