Explanation:

Question 8

The term for a melody in a Wagner opera that represents a person, event, or emotion is "leitmotif" (note: the option has a typo as "lietmotif" but it's the intended term). Liebestod is a specific piece, Lohengrin is an opera, lied is a German song, libretto is the text of an opera. So the correct option is the one with leitmotif (lietmotif as per the option).

Richard Wagner wrote "The Art - Work of the Future" and "Opera and Drama" to explain his concept of "music drama". Puccini, Liszt, Brahms, and Schumann are not associated with these works for this concept.

Answer:

lietmotif (the option with "lietmotif")
