{"product_id":"schumanns-music-and-e-t-john-macauslan-9781316506509","title":"Schumann's Music and E. T. A. Hoffmann's Fiction","description":"Four of Schumann's great masterpieces of the 1830s - Carnaval, Fantasiest cke, Kreisleriana and Nachtst cke - are connected to the fiction of E. T. A. Hoffmann. In this book, John MacAuslan traces Schumann's stylistic shifts during this period to offer insights into the expressive musical patterns that give shape, energy and individuality to each work. MacAuslan also relates the works to Schumann's reception of Bach, Beethoven, Novalis and Jean Paul, and focuses on primary sources in his wide-ranging discussion of the broader intellectual and aesthetic contexts. Uncovering lines of influence from Schumann's reading to his writings, and reflecting on how the aesthetic concepts involved might be used today, this book transforms the way Schumann's music and its literary connections can be understood and will be essential reading for musicologists, performers and listeners with an interest in Schumann, early nineteenth-century music and German Romantic culture.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e John Macauslan\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1316506509\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781316506509\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/24\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 296\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.18lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.69h x 7.44w x 0.62d","brand":"John Macauslan","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44064123846911,"sku":"9781316506509","price":41.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_7e6b16f5-1536-4a1b-bbfa-59d6cf80dbea.jpg?v=1685393663","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/schumanns-music-and-e-t-john-macauslan-9781316506509","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
