1898. With illustrations and diagrams. From the Preface: In writing
the thousand and first book on Richard Wagner and his work, I do
not pretend to accomplish anything better than has yet been done.
My aim has been something quite different, -a real practical guide
to Bayreuth for the French which will answer the needs and satisfy
the curiosity of those of our nation who have not yet taken that
little journey, which is so easy and attractive. I have also
desired to indicate what state of mind it should be undertaken and
what seductive preliminary studies are necessary to the complete
enjoyment of the trip; finally, it has been my desire to present
the Wagnerian style in its own proper light, by dissipating the
clouds with which it has been enveloped by certain of its
commentators, who, far from smoothing the way, have made it bristle
with difficulties. This is the sole criticism I will allow myself:
they write for Wagnerians, not for neophytes.
