German Essays on Music: Theodor W. Adorno, Ernst Bloch, Thomas Mann, and others

MANN,et al

Up to the end of the nineteenth century, Germany largely perceived itself as the nation of poets and philosophers. But with the enormous popularity of Schubert and Wagner, this began to change. Suddenly, composers also began to play a greater role in theories of national identity, and music theory became and important element of German thought. The essays in this volume reflect this, and are by a range of writers: Adorno, Bloch, Thomas Mann, Wachenroder, Herder, E. T. A. Hoffmann, Hegel, Bettina von Arnim, Nietzsche, Max Weber, Brecht, and others.
