Sumario: | This volume explores Salome's appropriation and reincarnation across the arts - not just Wilde's heroine, nor Richard Strauss's - but Salome as a cultural icon in fin-de-siècle society, whose appeal for ever new interpretations of the biblical story still endures today.

Rowden develops case studies dealing with censorship, reception, authorial reputation, appropria. |
