Drawing on an exceptionally broad range of sources, in this book Kreuzer explores how Italian opera, epitomised by Giuseppe Verdi, influenced ideas of German musical and national identity from the mid nineteenth century onwards. The book discusses the changing image of Verdi and the transnational dissemination, reception and political appropriation of his works.
