Description

Explore how German opera composers of the early nineteenth century used medievalism to forge a unified national identity. This Routledge research monograph examines the pivotal role that medieval aesthetics played in establishing a distinctive Germanic operatic tradition, drawing on detailed case studies of works by Weber, Schubert, Marschner, Wagner, and Schumann. Richardson investigates the historical sources available to these composers and how they interpreted medieval music in their operatic compositions, revealing the complex relationship between artistic recreation and nationalist ambition during a formative period in European cultural history. Essential reading for scholars of opera history, German Romanticism, and the intersection of aesthetics and national identity.
