Toward a Materialist Conception of Music History: With Stephan Hammel (Part II of II)
from The Regrettable Century · host Jason, Ben, and Stephan
This week, Jason and Ben continued their conversation with Stephan Hammel of The Measures Taken Podcast about his new book Toward a Materialist Conception of Music History. From the publisher: "This book argues for the relevance, appropriateness, and usefulness of historical materialism to the musicological project. It interrogates the history of encounters between Marxism and music studies — both within and without the Soviet sphere — before staging the missed encounter between classical musicology and Second International Marxism. It concludes with a framework for understanding style history in terms of changes in the forces and relations of musical production." https://www.haymarketbooks.org/books/2684-toward-a-materialist-conception-of-music-history https://www.themeasurestaken.org/ Send us a message (sorry we can't respond on here).
