| Abstract: | Hosted at the University of Malta's Aula Magna in Valletta, the Malta University Historical Society's 2007 Andrew Vella Memorial Lecture lecture was delivered on 1st December by Dr. Gottfried Wagner. The theme, as agreed, was: Cultural History and Politics with the title “From Richard Wagner to Adolf Hitler". In this very well attended event, Dr. Wagner, an anti-Nazi musicologist and historian who is a direct descendent of Richard Wagner, spoke on the connection between the operas composed by Richard Wagner and the political developments in Germany after its unification and more markedly with the rise of the National Socialist regime. |
