520    "In this innovative book, Gundula Kreuzer argues for the 
       foundational role of technologies in the conception, 
       production, and study of nineteenth-century opera. She 
       shows how composers increasingly incorporated novel 
       audiovisual effects in their works and how the uses and 
       meanings of the required machineries consistently changed,
       sometimes still resonating in contemporary stagings, 
       performance art, and popular culture. Focusing on devices 
       (which she dubs 'Wagnerian technologies') intended to 
       amalgamate opera's various media while veiling their 
       mechanics, Kreuzer offers a practical counternarrative to 
       Wagner's idealist theories of total illusionism. Curtain, 
       Gong, Steam's multifaceted exploration of the three 
       titular technologies repositions Wagner as catalyst more 
       than inventor in the history of operatic production. With 
       its broad chronological and geographical scope, the book 
       deepens our understanding of the material and mechanical 
       conditions of historical operatic practice as well as of 
       individual works, both well known and obscure"--Provided
