Was Deutsch Und Echt...: Richard Wagner and the Articulation of a German Opera, 1798-1876

By Kasper Bastiaan van Kooten

This book shows nineteenth-century German opera's entanglement with national identity formation, adding a significant perspective to discussions about Wagner's relation to German nationalism by interpreting his esthetic endeavors as a continuation of previous campaigns for the genre's emancipation.
