From My Life, the autobiography of the famed music critic Eduard
Hanslick, appeared toward the end of his life, in 1894, when it
went through three printings. It was republished in 1911, and
again, more recently, in 1987, by Bärenreiter, and in 2011, by
Taschenbuch. Born in Prague, Hanslick studied piano with Tomaschek,
and though, like other compatriots and contemporaries, he studied
law and became a government functionary, he went on to become the
most noted and honored music critic in nineteenth-century Vienna,
making his mark with his relatively brief disquisition On the
Musically Beautiful, first issued in 1854. In the Brahms-Wagner
controversy, he was on the side of the former, and was the target
of Wagner’s vicious anti-semitism, even though he had been among
the first to champion Wagner’s work in Vienna. His long and
informative autobiography has never appeared in complete
translation to English or any other language.
