Composer, author, revolutionary: Richard Wagner experienced the 19th century in very different positions. He was not only a witness to political upheavals and currents, but also registered, took up and (re)shaped the social and emotional sensitivities of his time - as an artist as well as an entrepreneur.
In the process, Richard Wagner shows himself to be an emotional technician who, in an increasingly commercialised world, redefined the social status of art - and of the artist. To this end, he developed strategies in which emotions play a leading role.
