"The Perfect Wagnerite" is a philosophical commentary on Richard Wagner's "Der Ring des Nibelungen".

According to Shaw: "I write this pamphlet for the assistance of those who wish to be introduced to the work on equal terms with that inner circle of adepts... The reason is that its dramatic moments lie quite outside the consciousness of people whose joys and sorrows are all domestic and personal, and whose religions and political ideas are purely conventional and superstitious. To them it is a struggle between half a dozen fairytale personages for a ring, involving hours of scolding and cheating, and one long scene in a dark gruesome mine, with gloomy, ugly music... Only those of wider consciousness can follow it breathlessly, seeing in it the whole tragedy of human history and the whole horror of the dilemmas from which the world is shrinking today."

Shaw interprets the "Ring" in Marxian terms as an allegory of the collapse of capitalism from its internal contradictions. George Bernard Shaw (1856-1950) was an Anglo-Irish playwright, critic and polemicist. In 1925, he was awarded the Nobel Prize of literature.©2017 Audioliterature (P)2017 Audioliterature Arte

Wonderfully well read and intellectually brilliant work. I learned a lot, not just about the Ring, but about history and music more generally.

Brilliant

I was prepared for weaker opinions, but Shaw had it thought out, and he presents his observations eloquently. I'm not sure how much of the thinking was original and how much was standard for his time, but either way it was engaging. My 'accuracy' is based on more recent and more in-depth accounts and analysis.

I Thought It Accurate Enough

A wonderful book that I found to be developmental and maturative for a young man coming of age such as myself. I found this book to be really relatable and that I was so relatable to the protagonist and I further highly recommend this book.

A great book
