520    "Blending insights from linguistic and social theories of 
       speech, ritual, and narrative with music-analytic and 
       historical criticism, Britten's Musical Language offers 
       fresh perspectives on the composer's fusion of verbal and 
       musical utterance in opera and song. It provides close 
       interpretative studies of the major scores (including 
       Peter Grimes, Billy Budd, The Turn of the Screw, War 
       Requiem, Curlew River, and Death in Venice) and explores 
       Britten's ability to fashion complex and mysterious 
       symbolic dramas from the interplay of texted song and a 
       wordless discourse of motives and themes. Focusing on the 
       performative and social basis of language, rather than on 
       traditional notions of textual 'expression' in vocal music,
       Philip Rupprecht pursues topics such as the role of naming
       and hate speech in Peter Grimes; the disturbance of ritual
       certainty in the War Requiem; and the codes by which 
       childish 'innocence' is enacted in The Turn of the Screw."
