More about the book
This book shows how Schubert, responding to the great social changes of his era, discovered that songs could project a kaleidoscopic array of human and sexual types--some strange, some familiar, some appealing, some forbidding, but all eligible for a sympathetic response. The book combines close attention to both music and poetry to explain the social context of this process and show it at work in a lively, accessible style free of excessive jargon.
