National Traditions in Nineteenth-Century Opera, Volume II de Michael C. Tusa

National Traditions in Nineteenth-Century Opera, Volume II: Central and Eastern Europe: The Ashgate Library of Essays in Opera Studies

Michael C. Tusa

This volume offers a cross-section of English-language scholarship on German and Slavonic operatic repertories of the "long nineteenth century," giving particular emphasis to four areas: German opera in the first half of the nineteenth century; the works of Richard Wagner after 1848; Russian opera between Glinka and Rimsky-Korsakov; and the operas of Richard Strauss and JanÃ¡cek. The essays reflect diverse methods, ranging from stylistic, philological, and historical approaches to those rooted in hermeneutics, critical theory, and post-modernist inquiry.
