Through a detailed analysis of the twenty-four poems by Wilhelm Müller that make up the work, Bostridge unravels its enigmas and meanings, exploring the composer's biographical circumstances and the historical conditions that influenced its creation. The author guides us on a captivating journey to the heart of German Romanticism, where diverse knowledge, images, and readings converge, from Rousseau and Kant to Goethe, Shelley, Brontë, Beckett, and Žižek.
