Description

Explore the deep connection between the natural landscape and artistic expression in Modernism and the Cult of Mountains: Music, Opera, Cinema. This scholarly work from the Ashgate Interdisciplinary Studies in Opera series examines how modernism in German-speaking regions transformed the Romantic fascination with the Alps. It looks at how these mountains became a space for resistance and escape from the alienating forces of modern culture. The book analyzes how the cult of mountains helped define new models of subjectivity through a focus on physical and mental health. It highlights the role of the arts in this cultural project, specifically focusing on music. In Austro-German culture, music held a unique position as something autonomous, pure, and sublime. This text provides a detailed look at how music, opera, and cinema contributed to this specific cultural movement and its relationship with the mountain landscape.
