The unique collaboration of Hofmannsthal and Strauss is examined and the classical myths that served as a basis for the libretto are investigated. The detailed analysis and interpretation of both the text and the music demonstrate that this work is epochal in the history of early [twentieth]-century opera and commands central importance in the overall production of its authors"--Publisher's website, viewed December 8, 2022 Bibliography Includes bibliographical references ("Hugo von Hofmannsthal: a select bibliography," pages 254-264; "Richard Strauss: a select bibliography," pages 265-269) Notes Master and use copy.
