Music in World Literature

摘要

Music in World Literature: From Tolstoy to Manga examines the relationship between music and literary works within various national literatures, from the 19th century to the present day, by presenting an amalgam of contemporary critical approaches to this topic across literatures and genres, from music in Leo Tolstoy and Marcel Proust to its role in Japanese manga. In doing so, the collection investigates each author’s technique of representing music in literature, or how an author’s work has been adapted musically, and includes a broad range of chapters devoted to the analysis of the complex interplay of the two art forms. Essays explore the aesthetic and cultural interactions between music and literature or between audience and performers; the nature of creativity and the role of music in specific texts, as well as the broader topics of integrating a musical performance within a narrative form.
