Mahler in Context explores the institutions, artists, thinkers,
cultural movements, socio-political conditions, and personal
relationships that shaped Mahler's creative output. Focusing on the
contexts surrounding the artist, the collection provides a sense of
the complex crosscurrents against which Mahler was reacting as
conductor, composer, and human being. Topics explored include his
youth and training, performing career, creative activity, spiritual
and philosophical influences, and his reception after his death.
Together, this collection of specially commissioned essays offers a
wide-ranging investigation of the ecology surrounding Mahler as a
composer and a fuller appreciation of the topics that occupied his
mind as he conceived his works. Readers will benefit from
engagement with lesser known dimensions of Mahler's life. Through
this broader contextual approach, this book will serve as a
valuable and unique resource for students, scholars, and a general
readership.
