Description
Summary:"This book considers the significance of intertextuality in nineteenth- and twentieth-century instrumental music. Using Barthes's distinction between work and text, Klein's work offers a reconsideration of applications of Bloom's "anxiety of influence" theory to musical composition, particularly by music scholars Joseph Straus and Kevin Korsyn. Klein draws on the semiotics of Nattiez; the literary and philosophical theories of Barthes, Foucault, Eco, Derrida, and others; Levi-Strauss's theory of myth; and various approaches to musical analysis."--Jacket.
