very good dust-jacket with a few small tears, very good black cloth, a few minor light marks in margins neatly erased. CORSE, SANDRA. Wagner and the new consciousness: language and love in the Ring. Rutherford, [N.J.] : London: Fairleigh Dickinson University Press ; Associated University Presses, 1990, 209pp., . Wagner saw the music drama as the instrument by which to develop the new social and political ideas that were a subject of lively discussion in the Germany of his time. Influenced especially by Hegel and Feuerbach, he attempted to create in the Ring an allegory that would explore, through what he felt were the unique expressive capabilities of music and drama together, a new, modem concept of the self and of history. Feuerbach, for Wagner, led the way in removing the concept of self from the metaphysics of Hegel to a realm of sensuous material reality. Feuerbach celebrated the diversity of physical reality and social relations, especially in love. Although Wagner took the importance of sensuous reality quite seriously, he looked through Feuerbach to his source in Hegel for many of the details of the notion of self-realization in two individuals mutual recognition (reflected most clearly in the mutual recognition of the twins Siegmund and Sieglinde), as well as for the idea of Necessity as the moving force of history. Necessity, however, for Wagner was the Need for Love. Hegel s emphasis on being as a state of continuous becoming - as a historical process - was important to Wagner. In the Ring, the new consciousness is reflected in the heroic individual who gradually achieves, through a combination of sensuality and rationality in love, a new awareness of the self and its role in society. Brünnhilde could not have come to her loving self-sacrifice - presented as the highest act of humanity in the Ring -- without the experiences of Wotan, Siegmund, Sieglinde, and Siegfried, all of whom reflect Wagner s Hegelian notion of the self as becoming, as object of history as well as subject. Yet Brünnhilde reflects another side of the theory of self that Wagner presents here. For Wagner is caught in the very ideology of domination he attempts to criticize; Hegelian mutual recognition for Wagner finally means giving up the self rather than realizing it, and the Ring cycle becomes, in spite of itself, a document of the failure of love in patriarchal society. The problem of the relationship between the individual and the world that forms the basis for the Ring's plot is also important in the music. Wagner imagines a subject-object relationship between music and poetry, seeing the text as man, music as woman; like Siegmund and Sieglinde, they find themselves in each other. Thus he afflrms the musicality of language and the linguistic nature of music. Wagner s music is a dialogue between traditional, linguistically controlled meanings in music and his own efforts to transcend or violate these meanings; his music not only speaks to his audience s conventional expectations but also goes beyond these expectations to create new conventions. Making explicit and exploring the linguistic origin of musical meaning, he created a new musical language that became enormously influential. 9780838633786 ISBN 0838633781.
