Rethinking fundamental questions of meaning and expression, he demonstrates how European music of the nineteenth century collaborates on equal terms with textual and sociocultural practices in the constitution of self and society.In Kramer's analysis, compositional processes usually understood in formal or emotive terms reappear as active forces in the work of cultural formation. Thus Beethoven's last piano sonata, Op. 111, forms both a realization and a critique of Romantic utopianism; Liszt's Faust Symphony takes bourgeois gender ideology into a troubled embrace; Wagner's Tristan und Isolde articulates a basic change in the cultural construction of sexuality. Through such readings, Kramer works toward the larger conclusion that nineteenth-century European music is concerned as much to challenge as to exemplify an ideology of organic unity and subjective wholeness. Anyone interested in music, literary criticism, or nineteenth-century culture will find this book pertinent and provocative. 410 0$aCalifornia studies in 19th century music ;$v8. 606 $aMusic$y19th century$xPhilosophy and aesthetics 606 $aMusic$xPhilosophy and aesthetics$y19th century 606 $aMusic Philosophy$2HILCC 606 $aMusic$2HILCC 606 $aMusic, Dance, Drama & Film$2HILCC 615 0$aMusic$xPhilosophy and aesthetics. 615 0$aMusic$xPhilosophy and aesthetics 615 7$aMusic Philosophy 615 7$aMusic 615 7$aMusic, Dance, Drama & Film 676 $a780/.9/034 700 $aKramer$b Lawrence$f1946-$0758984 712 02$aAmerican Council of Learned Societies. 801 0$bNyNyACL 801 1$bNyNyACL 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996248172203316 996 $aMusic as cultural practice, 1800-1900$92357062 997 $aUNISA
