"The Indigenous World 2005 gives an overview of crucial developments in 2004 that have impacted on the indigenous peoples of the world."--BOOK JACKET.

A readable and erudite study of the cultural history of Spain and its people.

Carl Dahlhaus here treats Nietzsche's youthful analysis of the contradictions in Wagner's doctrine (and, more generally, in romantic musical aesthetics); the question of periodicization in romantic and neo-romantic music; the underlying kinship between Brahms's and Wagner's responses to the central musical problems of their time; and the true significance of musical nationalism. Included in this volume is Walter Kauffman's translation of the previously unpublished fragment, "On Music and Words," by the young Nietzsche.
