Four of Schumann's great masterpieces of the 1830s - Carnaval,
Fantasiestucke, Kreisleriana and Nachtstucke - 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.
