Beethoven A Character Study Together With Wagner's Indebtedness To Beethoven
“Beethoven, A Character Study Together with Wagner's Indebtedness to Beethoven” explores the personality and biography of the well-known German musician Ludwig van Beethoven. Fischer's study, which was published in 1880, attempts to offer readers a better understanding of Beethoven's character, creative disposition, and the influence of his masterpieces on the music industry. The book delves deeply into Beethoven's impact on musicians of all kinds, especially Richard Wagner, in addition to examining his biography. In his analysis of Wagner's debt to Beethoven, Fischer highlights how the composer's inventive and ground-breaking approach to music had a lasting influence on Wagner's compositions and ideas. Fischer probably goes into detail on the composer's hardships, such as his hearing loss, which started in his late 20s, and how he surmounted hardship to write a number of the most famous and cutting-edge pieces in the history of classical music.

Baltische Erzähl- und Lebenswelten
Erzähl- und Lebenswelten bedingen einander. Erzählungen erschaffen Welten, die auf die reale Lebenswelt Bezug nehmen, wie auch diese ihrerseits von den in Erzählungen vermittelten Welten geprägt ist. Das Baltikum – aus historischer Sicht seit der frühen Neuzeit die ehemaligen Ostseeprovinzen Livland, Estland und Kurland bzw. aus heutiger Perspektive die drei Staaten Estland, Lettland und Litauen – bietet für die Erforschung von Erzähl- und Lebenswelten eine besonders reichhaltige Basis. Die gelebte Mehrsprachigkeit, die häufigen Herrschaftswechsel, die historischen Umwälzungen und der Kampf um die politische Geltung, die sich auch in der Kultur manifestierte, geben der Region eine besondere Prägung. Die Beiträge des vorliegenden Bandes stammen von Wissenschaftlerinnen und Wissenschaftlern aus den baltischen Ländern und Deutschland, aber auch aus Italien und Großbritannien. Vertreten sind Beiträge aus der germanistischen Literatur- und Sprachwissenschaft, aber auch der Kunstgeschichte, Translationswissenschaft und Soziolinguistik.

DeNora reconstructs the development of Beethoven's reputation as she recreates Vienna's robust musical scene through contemporary accounts, letters, magazines, and myths—a colorful picture of changing times. She explores the ways Beethoven was seen by his contemporaries and the image crafted by his supporters. Comparing Beethoven to contemporary riva...
