Today, the names Bach and Mozart are mostly associated with Johann
Sebastian Bach and Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. But this volume of Bach
Perspectives offers essays on the lesser-known musical figures who
share those illustrious names alongside new research on the
legendary composers themselves. Topics include the keyboard
transcriptions of J. S. Bach and Johann Gottfried Walther; J. S.
Bach and W. A. Mozart's freelance work; the sonatas of C. P. E.
Bach and Leopold Mozart; the early musical training given J. C.
Bach by his father and half-brother; the surprising musical
similarities between J. C. Bach and W. A. Mozart; and the latest
documentary research on Mozart's 1789 visit to the Thomasschule in
Leipzig. An official publication of the American Bach Society, Bach
Perspectives, Volume 14 draws on a variety of approaches and a
broad range of subject matter in presenting a new wave of
innovative classical musical scholarship. Contributors: Eleanor
Selfridge-Field, Yoel Greenberg, Noelle M. Heber, Michael Maul,
Stephen Roe, and David Schulenberg
The challenges of teaching and learning academic-level writing may
be greater than ever before due to the prevalence of writing
practices in social media and the growing internationalization of
post-secondary education. The authors of Academic Writing* use
discipline-based research papers to discuss preliminary steps such
as research, note-taking, summarizing, and drafting a proposal.
They trace the development of scholarly papers through
introductions, core paragraphs, and conclusions, and they close
with essential chapters on writing in the sciences, and revision
and proofreading. In its third edition, Academic Writing now offers
chapter learning objectives, annotated passages that illustrate
aspects of academic style, and a glossary. Furthermore, every
chapter ends with articles that can be used for stylistic analysis.
These rich pedagogical features accompanied by the authors' clear
step-by-step instructions make this book an ideal guide for all
students who want to improve their academic writing skills.
