Proof Through the Night: Music and the Great War Hardcover - 2002
by Glenn Watkins
First line
From the rear cover
"Music and History intersect magnificently in the scholarship of Glenn Watkins. Politics, nationalism, combat, technology, art, literature and, above all, the sounds - beautiful and horrible - that charged wartime life and accompanied mass death. All these, and more, suffuse the vast symphony of war that Professor Watkins presents so clearly and analyzes so convincingly. Proof Through the Night is a master's work of interdisciplinary, yet disciplined, writing about music."--David B.Dennis, author of "Beethoven in German Politics, 1870-1989
"Glenn Watkins's new book is a synthesis of biographical, music-analytical, literary, political, and historical information about European and American music between 1914 and 1918. He combines extremely diverse materials into a single story, by turns fascinating, entertaining, and sad . The book will be a rich source of information and judgments about music and culture in general at a crucial moment of modern history."--John Spitzer, Peabody Conservatory, Johns Hopkins University
