  Arthur de Gobineau - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In Gobineau's view, the development of empires ultimately was destructive to the "superior races" that created them, since they led to the mixing of distinct races.
There he influenced the development of the anti-Semitic "Bayreuth circle".
To Bahá'ís, Gobineau is known as the person who obtained the only complete manuscript of the early history of the Bábí religious movement of Persia, written by Hâjji Mirza Jân of Kashan, who was put to death by the Persian authorities in c.

Bayreuth was also preferable to Nuremberg, because apart from Jean Paul and its baroque architecture, there was nothing that could compete with the fruits of Wagnerism.
If the Wagner theatre were established in Bayreuth, it would stand at the geographical heart of Germany, and people from all over Germany could make pilgrimages to the fountain of their spiritual rebirth.

 The Wagners
The symbol of the circle is present everywhere in Wagner's Bayreuth: roundness is found as much in the topography of the festival landscape as in the spiritual dimension.
The circle was also an important image for the followers of Wagner: the 'Bayreuth Circle', active in Wagner's lifetime as propagandists of his work, developed an ideology of cultish, nationalistic philistinism after the composer's death—their very name reveals their intellectual isolation.
Beginning in the 'New Bayreuth' of her father, Wieland, whose post-war spirit and imagery moulded her childhood and youth, an educational journey through the world—taking in musical and intellectual-Jewish America, philosophical circles in France and finally literary Austria—gave rise to new and di3erent views on Wagner.

Wagner's Bayreuth was constructed from the combination of various elements of Wagner's work with physical characteristics of the Fest spielhaus itself: the acoustic consequences of its architecture and its remote, elitist location.

 Wagner, Rehearsing the Ring
He requested Heinrich Porges, a member of his circle and an able writer as well as an accomplished musician, to 'follow all my rehearsals very closely and note down everything I say, even the smallest details, about the interpretation and performance, so that a tradition goes down in writing'.
The Bühnenproben was originally published in the monthly Bayreuther Blätter in instalments that were not completed until 1896, when the Ring was first given again at Bayreuth; its publication in book form was equally protracted.
The fact that it was in 1896 that the Ring was first performed again at Bayreuth has an obvious bearing on why the Bayreuther Blätter brought out the section on Götterdämmerung and why the publication of the book was completed in that year.

 Biographical Notes
As technical director of the theatre in Darmstadt, Brandt had a high reputation for his abilities, which Wagner drew on in the construction of the machinery for the Ring and of the Festspielhaus itself.
Public opinion in Munich was scandalised by revelations about the composer's relationship with Cosima, at that time still married to the conductor Hans von Bülow, and by Wagner's supposed exploitation of the King's munificence; as a result of which, in December 1865, the King was forced to ask the composer to leave Munich.
Cosima supported Wagner both emotionally and practically in the Bayreuth enterprise; on his death, she took immediate and effective control of the festival.

 H-Net Review: Pamela M. Potter on Bayreuth: A History of the Wagner Festival
In the postwar period, Wagner and Bayreuth have attracted the attention of a wider circle of scholars for their symbolic representation of the corruption of German intellectual life.
The other book under review, Frederic Spotts's Bayreuth: A History of the Wagner Festival, should not be designated as a Wagner study but rather as one more tribute to the Wagner mystique by a dedicated audience member.
The broader implications of Wagner and Bayreuth are drawn from a limited assortment of secondary writings, a laxity in scholarship that is aggravated by a paucity of footnotes.

 Sleeve Notes - Magnard: Symphonies Nos 3 & 4
The close bond which developed between Magnard and Ropartz led the latter to introduce Magnard to the circle of César Franck, which included the crucial figure of Vincent d'Indy, whom Magnard met at the salon of the poet Robert de Bonnières and with whom he completed his musical studies between 1888 and 1892.
Fatherly loyalty had been evident in his willingness to support the Franckian musical circle with newspaper publicity, sometimes at his own expense, and he had been a generous parent earlier, even if a weight of professional expectation had merely been emphasized thereby.
By nature he was upright, proud and unsociable, with something dour in him manifest in his accent and his abrupt form of speech.' Thus Magnard was recalled by Pierre Lalo, music critic and son of the composer Édouard.
