Few works in the nineteenth-century repertoire have aroused such
extremes of hostility and admiration, or have generated so many
scholarly problems, as Anton Bruckner's symphonies. In this 2004
book, Julian Horton seeks fresh ways of understanding the
symphonies and the problems they have accrued by treating them as
the focus for a variety of inter-disciplinary debates and
methodological controversies. He isolates problematic areas in the
works' analysis and reception, and approaches them from a range of
analytical, historical, philosophical, literary, critical and
psychoanalytical viewpoints. The symphonies are thus explored in
the context of a number of crucial and sometimes provocative
themes, including the political circumstances of the works'
production, Bruckner and post-war musical analysis, issues of
musical influence, the problem of editions, Bruckner and
psychobiography, and the composer's controversial relationship to
the Nazis.
