Describe the major influences that Verdi, Wagner, or Puccini exerted upon opera in terms of making it more innovative, realistic, and even controversial. Next, consider Wagner and this dilemma: Wagner's brilliance is clear because his works remain some of the most popular and admired productions in our own time. Yet, he was a blatantly antisemitic and held notions of racial purity, traits that have stained his artistic legacy. (This was compounded by the later celebration of Wagner's music by Hitler and the Nazis). New York Times writer Anthony Tommasini wrote of Wagner in 2005: "How did such sublime music come from such a warped man? Maybe art really does have the power to ferret out the best in us."

Or whether we should reject both the person and his or her art. Identify one (1) modern musician or artist where this dilemma arises.Explore:American Dilemma--Slavery – The Art & Literature of ProtestChapter 29 (pp. 962-976); slavery, literature, and artHaven's article on Goodman's scholarship on art protesting slavery before the Civil War at http://news.stanford.edu/news/2009/february18/arti...Art and Slavery article at http://www.realhistories.org.uk/articles/archive/t...
