Description
Adorno on Music offers a comprehensive introduction to Theodor Adorno's influential writings on music from a sociological perspective. Robert Witkin presents Adorno's complex arguments about the relationship between music and morality, and how musical works connect to broader social structures, in clear and accessible language suitable for readers without specialist musicological training. This book recovers Adorno's essential texts for general audiences and demonstrates how his work established the arts as moral and critical forces in modern society. Published by Routledge as part of the International Library of Sociology series, it provides vital insight into one of the twentieth century's most important cultural thinkers and his lasting impact on how we understand music's role in society.
