Melopoetics, the study of the multifarious relations between music
and literature, has emerged in recent years as an increasingly
popular field of interdisciplinary inquiry. In this volume, noted
musicologists and literary critics explore diverse topics of shared
concern such as literary theory as a model for musical criticism,
genre theories in literature and music, the criticism and analysis
of texted music and the role of aesthetic, historical and cultural
understanding in concepts of text/music convergence. These fourteen
essays - united here not by a common ideology but by common subject
matter - demonstrate how musical and literary scholarship can
combine forces effectively on the common ground of contemporary
critical theory and interpretive practice. The concluding essay by
interdisciplinary historian Hayden White locates this ambitious
enterprise of contemplating 'music and text' in the larger context
of intellectual history.
