Deconstructive Variations: Music and Reason in Western Society

U of Minnesota Press (1996)
  Copy   BIBTEX

Abstract

Balanced between the traditional and the postmodern, Subotnik (music, Brown U.) deftly and articulately manages to use the philosophies of Kant, Adorno, Bakhtin, and Derrida to review the music of Chopin, Mozart, and Stravinksy. Her discussion of the Magic Flute brings new rigor to the more usual romantic studies, and her exposition on Allan Bloom and Spike Lee in the final essay contextualizes the deconstructive critique she employs.
