Wagner's Ring cycle, argues Foster, follows an evolutionary model of Greek poetry and politics adapted from Hegel. Providing a thorough analysis of three of the most important poetic genres – epic, lyric, and drama – this book interrogates the ways in which Wagner uses Greek aesthetics to further his own ideological goals.
