In the article the author is depicting Bayreuth Circle as a social group of radical right-wing German intellectuals, who were trying not only to propagate and disseminate nationalist and anti-Semite ideas of controversial composer and thinker Richard Wagner, but also to produce substantial changes into the social reality of Second German Reich and Weimar Republic as well. Author's intention is to stress the straight of the mixture of art (mainly music) and ideology, which enabled the members of Bayreuth Circle to be extremely successful in their efforts to "regenerate" the "deceased" German nation and, prospectively, the whole world
