Arnold Schoenberg's a Survivor from Warsaw in Postwar Europe: Volume 17 Hardcover - 2014
by Joy H. Calico
From the rear cover
"An exemplary exploration in cultural history which shows with great nuance and sophistication how a single seven-minute musical work can open up so many key themes for understanding postwar Europe. This is a fascinating and important book that demonstrates how postwar Europe, including its Cold War division, needs to be understood not solely through politics but through the interpretation of cultural forms."
--Dan Stone, author of Goodbye to All That? The Story of Europe since 1945 (forthcoming 2014)
--Walter Frisch, author of The Early Works of Arnold Schoenberg "Using Schoenberg's charged Holocaust memorial as a guide, Calico traces an innovative, transnational path through postwar European cultural life, challenging, refining, and overturning well-worn assumptions along the way. This highly compelling book will appeal to a wide range of readers interested in history, music, politics, Jewish studies, and the Cold War."
--Peter Schmelz, Associate Professor of Musicology, Washington University in St. Louis
