Music and Sentimentalism in the Nineteenth and Twentieth Centuries

By Stephen Downes

Book Overview

The book challenges hierarchies of artistic value and the associated denigration of sentimental feeling in gendered discourses. Fresh insights are thereby developed into sentimentalism's place in musical constructions of emotion, taste, genre, gender, desire and authenticity.
