"These fragments shed valuable light not only on Adorno′s thinking on Beethoven, but also equally importantly on the sources of Adorno′s philosophy of music. Rolf Tiedemann′s sensitive editing has produced a remarkably coherent volume out of the most disparate material, while Edmund Jephcott′s translation rises magnificently to a difficult task." Max Paddison, University of Durham
Adorno identifies three periods in Beethoven′s work, arguing that the thematic unity of the first and second periods begins to break down in the third. Adorno follows this progressive disintegration of organic unity in the classical music of Beethoven and his contemporaries, linking it with the rationality and monopolistic nature of modern society.
Beethoven will be welcomed by students and researchers in a wide range of disciplines – philosophy, sociology, music and history – and by anyone interested in the life of the composer.
