Title: Nietzsche and Wagner
Description: "An absorbing account of the bizarre and fluctuating relationship between the philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche, the composer Richard Wagner and his wife Cosima ... The book sheds new light on Nietzsche's early writings, showing how they were subverted by Wagner to parade his own ideas ... The source of Nietzsche's Superman and Will to power are traced to the pre-fascist ideology of Richard and Cosima Wagner."--Jacket.
