Summary/Abstract: The study analyzes the views on the opera, musical drama and problematics of art fusion issues given by the aesthetics Eduard Hanslick, Otakar Hostinský and Josef Durdík. Views on Richard Wagner‘s incentives to the theory of opera, musical drama and collected artwork show that it is not always the material of art works which is crucial, but also the way they are composed and presented. This position on the aesthetics and art theory was attained by structuralism and based, among other things, on the criticism of the form aesthetics.
