Mest - This Time

Wagner singles out the main enemy of real art - the golden calf, the power of money and industrial capital; often he generalizes all these concepts in the term "industry". “You, my suffering brothers of all walks of life, feeling deaf in yourself, if you strive to free yourself from money slavery in order to become free people, understand our task well and help us raise art to a decent height so that we can show you how to raise a craft to the height of art, how to raise an industry slave to the level of a wonderful, conscious person who, with a smile of an initiate in the secrets of nature, can tell nature itself, the sun, stars, death and eternity: you also belong to me, and I your overlord. " Wagner understands freedom in the spirit of the ancient Greeks. And these ideals developed in his early youth.In this case, Wagner is not controversial, but unusually consistent.
