This provocative volume of essays challenges the ideology that insists music occupies an autonomous sphere. By examining the ways in which music and society interact with and mediate one another within and across socio-cultural boundaries, these authors--musicologists, sociologists, cultural theorists--provide a sound argument.

Three tropes are central: the tensions and traumascultural, social, and personalassociated with modernity; changes in human subjectivity and its engagement and representation in music and film; and the more general...

The Sight of Sound: Music, Representation, and the History of the Body
ISBN: 9780520203426 / Angielski / Miękka / 1995 / 345 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Richard Leppert boldly examines the social meanings of music as these have been shaped not only by hearing but also by seeing music in performance. His purview is the northern European bourgeoisie, principally in England and the Low Countries, from 1600 to 1900. And his particular interest is the relation of music to the human body. He argues that musical practices, invariably linked to the body, are inseparable from the prevailing discourses of power, knowledge, identity, desire, and sexuality.
With the support of 100 illustrations, Leppert addresses music and the production of racism,... Richard Leppert boldly examines the social meanings of music as these have been shaped not only by hearing but also by seeing music in performance. Hi...

Essays on Music
ISBN: 9780520231597 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 760 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Theodor W.

This long-awaited collection of twenty-seven essays represents the full range of Adorno's music writing. Nearly half of the essays...
