Nietzsche on Dithyrambic Music: A Reiteration of "Richard Wagner in Bayreuth" - Paperback

by James Chester (Author)

"Nietzsche on Dithyrambic Music" presents the theory that Nietzsche's "Thus Spoke Zarathustra" is a dithyrambic tragedy, that it is composed in the dithyramb, and that it represents the world's only existing composition of dithyrambic music. This book attempts to teach the reader how to read dithyrambic music by first explaining a concept of "dithyrambic music."
