Editorial Reviews

Review
"Steinberg is intent on probing just what the festival's founders saw themselves as celebrating and how their original vision can be understood against the background of forces and demands within fin-de-siecle Austria.... [He] shares his methods with many cultural historians and utilizes these methods with an impressive command, making his book an excellent example of what such an approach can accomplish". -- Opera Quarterly --This text refers to the Paperback edition.
