It includes entries on topics such as anti-Semitism, sexism, and racism, as well as Romantic musicians who were not primarily composers, and topics such as the Haitian Revolution, spirituals, and ragtime that were more important for music in the long 19th century than is generally acknowledged. \u003c\/blockquote\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hardback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 846 pages\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublication date\u003c\/strong\u003e: 12 March 2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher\u003c\/strong\u003e: Rowman \u0026amp; Littlefield\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch1\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/h1\u003e praises the book as an excellent one-volume ready reference resource for students, researchers, and others interested in music history. \u003ch1\u003eHistorical Dictionary of Romantic Music, Second Edition\u003c\/h1\u003e covers the persons, ideas, practices, and works that made up the worlds of Western music during the long 19th century (ca. 1780–1918). It is the first book to recognize that Romantic music was very nearly a global phenomenon. It includes more women, more Black musicians and other musicians of color, and more exponents of musical Romanticism from Central and South America as well as Central and Eastern Europe than any other single-volume study of Romantic music—thus challenging the conventional hegemony of musical Romanticisms by men and by Western European nations. This book includes entries on topics including anti-Semitism, sexism, and racism that were pervasive and defining to the worlds of musical Romanticism but are rarely addressed in general studies of that subject. It includes Romantic musicians who were not primarily composers, as well as topics such as the Haitian Revolution, spirituals, and ragtime that were more important for music in the long 19th century than is generally acknowledged. The result is an expansive, inclusive, diverse, and more richly textured portrayal of Romantic music than is elsewhere available. \u003ch1\u003eHistorical Dictionary of Romantic Music, Second Edition\u003c\/h1\u003e contains a chronology, an introduction, an extensive bibliography, and a dictionary section with more than 600 cross-referenced entries on traditions, famous pieces, persons, places, technical terms, and institutions of Romantic music. This book is an excellent resource for students, researchers, and anyone wanting to know more about Romantic music.\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1754g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 186 x 263 x 54 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781538157510\u003cbr\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eEdition number\u003c\/strong\u003e: Second Edition\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"John Michael Cooper","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":47131565392122,"sku":"9781538157510","price":244.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/files\/1739550547783_book.jpg?v=1739616979","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/historical-dictionary-of-romantic-music-9781538157510","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
