Review

This (two-volume) book is not only a model of work in its field, but a stimulating and timely reminder of what we (scholars) should all aspire towards. . . . A monumental monograph that transforms our view of its subject. . . . . A formidable achievement. . . . The publication of this monograph offers yet more evidence that the University of Rochester Press has become a highly significant player in the field. --MUSIC AND LETTERS (James Garratt) This book impresses both by the prodigiousness of its scholarship -- Scott Messing seems to have tracked down every nineteenth-century word, daub, and note inspired by Schubert -- and by the fascination of the materials it collects. Better yet, it puts these materials to excellent use, demonstrating beyond question the extraordinary depth to which Schubert penetrated nineteenth-century consciousness and culture and the extraordinary degree to which Schubert was perceived as feminine. --Lawrence Kramer, professor of English and music, Fordham University, and author of Franz Schubert: Sexuality, Subjectivity, Song Original, engaging, and compellingly written, Scott Messing's Schubert in the European Imagination/ makes an enormous contribution to our understanding of the evolving image of Franz Schubert, one of the most elusive of all composers. The interdisciplinary breadth of Messing's project, drawing on political and cultural history, art, and literature, is a model for musical scholarship. --Christopher H. Gibbs, James H. Ottaway, Jr. Professor of Music at Bard College, and author of The Life of Schubert An unparalleled depth of available material about an indisputably great composer. --NEW YORK SUN (Benjamin Ivry) Important and distinctive. . . .Impressive musical scholarship, rich in insights and covering ground that has not been adequately researched hitherto. --THE SCHUBERTIAN (C. Crawford Howie)
