by JeremyTambling (Author)
This study looks at 19th and early 20th century opera as part of a culture which produced fascism as a crisis-state, and threatened to extinguish the genre as an influential form of art altogether. The author highlights the themes of the cultural crisis through a discussion of a dozen operas.
