This volume is a study of the influence of Richard Wagner on the work of Aubrey Beardsley (1872-1898). It considers Beardsley's pictorial and literary versions - or perversions - of Wagner's operas and explores the role of Wagnerism within British culture of the 1890s, in particular the relations between Wagnerism and the decadent movement.
