The Wagner Story Book is a collection of stories and essays about the German composer Richard Wagner, written by Henry Frost. The book is divided into two parts: the first part covers Wagner's life and works, while the second part focuses on his influence on music and culture. Frost provides a detailed account of Wagner's childhood, education, and early career, as well as his controversial personal life and political views. He also delves into Wagner's musical style, analyzing his operas and their themes, motifs, and orchestration. In the second part of the book, Frost explores Wagner's impact on later composers, such as Debussy and Strauss, and on other art forms, including literature, painting, and film. The Wagner Story Book is a comprehensive and engaging introduction to one of the most important figures in Western music history.You remember something about the Grail's knights. The Knight of the Swan was one of them. They live here in the temple, except when they are sent away on some journey, to help some one who is in trouble, to do some act of justice, to fight for the right, or to punish the wrong. And whether they stay here or go as far away as they can, they never need any food except what the Grail gives them. The Grail chooses them at first, feeds them afterwards, and gives them their commands, for sometimes, in that halo that shines around it, there appear letters and words to tell the knights what they should know.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
