Description: Philosophy of New Music by Theodor W. Adorno, Robert Hullot-Kentor Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description An indispensable key to Adornos influential oeuvre-now in paperbackIn 1949, Theodor W. Adornos Philosophy of New Music was published, coinciding with the prominent philosophers return to a devastated Europe after his exile in the United States. Intensely polemical from its first publication, every aspect of this work was met with extreme reactions, from stark dismissal to outrage. Even Arnold Schoenberg reviled it.Despite the controversy, Philosophy of New Music became highly regarded and widely read among musicians, scholars, and social philosophers. Marking a major turning point in his musicological philosophy, Adorno located a critique of musical reproduction as internal to composition, rather than a matter of musical performance. Consisting of two distinct essays, "Schoenberg and Progress" and "Stravinsky and Reaction," Philosophy of New Music poses the musical extremes in which Adorno perceived the struggle for the cultural future of Europe: between human emancipation and barbarism, between the compositional techniques and achievements of Schoenberg and Stravinsky.In this translation, which is accompanied by an extensive introduction by distinguished translator Robert Hullot-Kentor, Philosophy of New Music emerges as an essential guide to the whole of Adornos oeuvre. Author Biography Theodor W. Adorno (1903-1969) was the leading figure of the Frankfurt school of critical theory and a significant postwar European philosopher. He authored more than twenty volumes, including Negative Dialectics (1982), Kierkegaard (Minnesota, 1989), Dialectic of Enlightenment (1975) with Max Horkheimer, and Aesthetic Theory (Minnesota, 1998). Robert Hullot-Kentor has taught at Harvard and Stanford universities and written widely on Adorno. He has translated various works of Adorno, including Aesthetic Theory, and is the author of Things beyond Resemblance: Collected Essays on Theodor W. Adorno.
