Richard Wagner's Prose Works, Vol. 4 (Classic Reprint)

By Richard Wagner and William Ashton Ellis(Tr.) Richard Wagner

Excerpt from Richard Wagner's Prose Works, Vol. 4

Summoned to Munich by the generosity of His Majesty the King of Bavaria in order that, after severe struggles and en deavours, I might reap the fruits of a laborious artist-life in the undisturbed enjoyment of peace and leisure for my work; in the greatest retirement, and heeding nothing but the commands of my exalted patron, I suddenly find myself dragged from my retreat by attacks on my person, by a storm of public accusations such as make their way into the papers only in the case of legal proceedings, and even then with a certain traditional reserve.
