Nationality vs Universality
For the last few decades, historiography, considered as the central discipline of musicology, has explored new directions and sought inspiration for further research, consequently redefining the fundamental premises of historical musicology. This is especially true with regard to the concept of music history as the work of great individuals and the domain of artistic works, resulting from either tradition or new inventions. The validity of global and universal perspectives has been questioned, and researchers have emphasized the need to focus on local realities and day-to-day musical life. Another key topic in this ongoing debate is the (im)possibility of writing an “objective” historica...

Foreign Labor in Nazi Germany
During World War II, Germany recruited over eight million foreign laborers from her allies, the neutral countries, and the occupied territories. This book describes the inception, organization, and administration of the Nazi foreign labor program and its relationship to the over-all economy and government. Originally published in 1967. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.

Central European Folk Music
This is the first annotated bibliography, in German or English, to gather the rich sources for German-language folk-music scholarship.

The book represents the enormous diversi...
Kulturgeschichte Schlesiens in der Frühen Neuzeit
Mit diesem Band findet eine Pommern, Ostpreußen, dem Baltikum, Westpreußen und Schlesien gewidmete Sequenz ihren Abschluss. Schlesien ist von der zweiten Hälfte des 16. bis in die Anfänge des 18. Jahrhunderts die führende kulturelle Landschaft im alten deutschen Sprachraum. Warum - darauf versuchen auch die Beiträge dieses Bandes eine Antwort zu geben. Wie bei den Vorgängerbänden haben sich Buchkundler, Literaturwissenschaftler, Historiker, Theologen, Musik- und Kunstwissenschaftler zumal aus Polen und Deutschland zusammengetan, um dem Geheimnis der schöpferischen und innovativen Potenzen Schlesiens in der Frühen Neuzeit auf die Spur zu kommen. Der Band soll beitragen zur Stiftung von Memoria. Er gilt geistigen Gestaltungen zwischen Späthumanismus und Aufklärung aus einer Brückenlandschaft, die zu bewahren Europa Anlass hat.
