For two centuries, Gesamtkunstwerk-the ideal of the "total work of
art"-has exerted a powerful influence over artistic discourse and
practice, spurring new forms of collaboration and provoking debates
over the political instrumentalization of art. Despite its popular
conflation with the work of Richard Wagner, Gesamtkunstwerk's
lineage and legacies extend well beyond German Romanticism, as this
wide-ranging collection demonstrates. In eleven compact chapters,
scholars from a variety of disciplines trace the idea's evolution
in German-speaking Europe, from its foundations in the early
nineteenth century to its manifold articulations and reimaginings
in the twentieth century and beyond, providing an uncommonly broad
perspective on a distinctly modern cultural form.
