  • Music, piety, and propaganda : the soundscapes of counter-reformation Bavaria
    Fisher, Alexander J.
    " ... Explores the nature of sound as a powerful yet ambivalent force in the religious struggles that permeated Germany during the Counter-Reformation. Author Alexander J. Fisher goes beyond a ... musicological treatment of composers, styles, and genres to examine how music, and more broadly sound itself, shaped the aural landscape of Bavaria as the duchy emerged as a militant Catholic bulwark. Fisher focuses particularly on the ways in which sound - including bell-ringing, gunfire, and popular song, as well as cultivated polyphony - not only was deployed by Catholic secular and clerical elites to shape the religious identities of Bavarian subjects, but also carried the potential to challenge and undermine confessional boundaries" --> internetna str. založnika
