Kulturelles Handeln | Macht | Mobil

This anthology is the first to consider the three categories of music, gender and mobility together. While historical musicology has so far focused on musicians' journeys, this volume takes a look at social and mental forms of mobility in addition to spatial-geographical mobility. On the basis of numerous original sources, the articles analyse exemplary different forms of mobility of (music-)culturally active persons from the 17th to the 21st century. Complemented by articles on literature and art studies, epistemological questions are also articulated and the transfer of mobility research, originally located in the social and historical sciences, to the subject of musicology is explored.
