Music, Masculinity and the Claims of History: The Austro-German Tradition from Hegel to Freud

By Ian Biddle

Book Overview

What does it mean to think of Western Art music - and the Austro-German contribution to that repertory - as a tradition? How are men and masculinities implicated in the shaping of that tradition? And how is the writing of the history (or histories) of that tradition shaped by men and masculinities? This book seeks to answer these and other questions.
