Jókai's Saffi.<br/><br/>"Certainly Strauss was no judge of librettos and throughout his life he found it both cumbersome and restricting to compose to prescribed texts though with Der Zigeunerbaron 1885 he showed himself uncharacteristically adept in this. Over the next quarter of a century a further 14 operettas and even a grand opera Ritter Pásmán 1892 cemented Strauss's position as the leading light in 'Silver Age' Viennese operetta though even in the composer's lifetime only three of these found international success: Die Fledermaus 1874 Eine Nacht in Venedig 1883 and Der Zigeunerbaron."

183565419Jesus Without the Myths STRAUSS David Friedrich. Das Leben Jesu kritisch bearbeitet. Tubingen: Osiander 1835-36. First edition of this important work. Two octavo volumes 7 5/8 x 4 7/8 inches; 195 x 124 mm. xvi 731 1 2 publisherÃs ads; xii 750 2 errata pp. PublisherÃs blind-ruled and beveled black cloth spines with central gilt arabesques surrounding the gilt lettering pastepaper endpapers edges stained red. Some underlining in blue on a few pages. Some scattered foxing. Overall a very good copy. "The publication of 'The Life of Jesus Critically Considered' aroused a storm of controversy; its revolutionary thesis and content were violently attacked and wrenched out of context. Strauss's principal objective was to explode not only the traditional orthodox view of the Gospel accounts of the life of Jesus but also earlier rationalistic views." PMM p. 182. Strauss's first and greatest work a crucial text in the history of biblical studies and of religious scholarship generally. The first consistent systematic application of the then quasi-Hegelian notion of myth to the New Testament and early Christianity offering an epoch-making interpretation of the Christ of the Gospels as the unintentional product of a "mythos" of Messianic expectation already present in ancient Hebrew culture. The book was a scandal which adversely affected Strauss's entire career offending rationalist and orthodox biblical literalists alike Printing and the Mind of Man 300.
