This book introduces the topics of Enlightenment,
Counter-Enlightenment, and social demography in Western art musics
and demonstrates their historical and sociological importance. The
essays in this book explore the concepts of "existential irony" and
"sanctification," which have been mentioned or discussed by music
scholars, historians, and musicologists only either in connection
with specific composers' works (Shostakovich's, in the case of
"existential irony") or very parenthetically, merely in passing in
the biographies of composers of "classical" musics. This
groundbreaking work illustrates their generality and sociological
sources and correlates in contemporary Western art musics.
