It thematizes Romantic interest in oral speech, its poetical usage in music and musical discourse, and its political usage in the national-communitarian cult of the vernacular community. Subtly and with great erudition, Neubauer traces in different genres and fields the many transnational cross-currents around Romantic cultural criticism and writings on music and language, offering not only fresh analytical insights but also a rich account of the interaction between Romantic aesthetics and cultural nationalism.National Cultivation of Culture14.Music19th centuryHistory and criticismMusic and languageHistory19th centuryMusical criticismHistory19th centuryMusicHistory and criticism.Music and languageHistoryMusical criticismHistory780.9/034Neubauer John1933-2015.192451NL-LeKBNL-LeKBBOOK9910821397503321The persistence of voice3914532UNINA
