- 摘要附注:
- The Czech composer Antonin Dvorak has recently received special attention from scholars thanks to the changed political climate in his native land and shifting currents of musical reception. Rethinking Dvorak provides a forum for studies of Dvorak by experts worldwide, including many from the Czech Republic who have never before published in English. The 24 essays offer penetrating insights into Dvorak's personality, his place in history, and the sheer beauty of his music. How this music was received and appreciated is a subject of special focus, offering explanations as to why, despite the composer's popularity, some of his greatest compositions have remained unknown. The book rejects the image of Dvorak as important mainly for Czech nationalism; while not neglecting this subject, it also addresses his ties to the broader family of Slavonic nations, to the overall context of European music, and to the United States.
