Belonging, Detachment and the Representation of Musical Identities in Visual Culture
Belonging, Detachment and the Representation of Musical Identities in Visual Culture is a volume of 28 essays exploring aspects of identity/ies in the field of music in visual culture.
It is dedicated to the memory of Dorothea Baumann (1946–2022), an energetic champion of music iconographic research. Organised in six sections, the book explores theory and methodology; notation, intertextuality and interarts dialogue; and topics traversing courtly and ecclesiastical life, the fabrication and mechanism of cultural identity, colonialism, subversion and struggle.
