Description

Explore the connection between Western music and imperial culture in Postcolonial Readings of Music in World Literature: Turning Empire on Its Ear. Published by Routledge, this book examines how representations of Western music in literary texts reveal the lasting impact of colonial artifacts on contemporary world literature. Author Bushnell investigates how the conventions of performance, composition, and listening established during the colonial era continue to influence postcolonial thought. By analyzing music from the Baroque, Classical, and Romantic periods - spanning from Bach to Brahms - the text demonstrates how imperial attitudes and values are embedded within the rules and standards of Western music. This work provides a deep look at how music from the rise of colonialism shapes literary and cultural perspectives.
