  Drawing on the discourses of psychoanalysis, evolutionary biology, and other fields of study that informed Richards Wagner's world, the author traces the influence of Gesamtkunstwerk and eroticism from their classic expressions in Tristan und Isolde into the work of the generation of composers that followed, including Zemlinsky, and Strauss.
