About this title: This study sets Mozart, especially his four most celebrated operas ("Il Seraglio", "Cosi Fan Tutte", "Don Giovanni" and "The Magic Flute") in the context of Enlightenment literature and thought. For this new edition, the author has revised a number of passages and has focused on "Idomeneo" and "La Clemenza di Tito". Brigid Brophy's most recent book, "Baroque-'n'-Roll", contains three essays on Mozart.
