Beskrivning
The book examines the perception of the organist as the most influential musical figure in Victorian society through the writings of Thomas Hardy and Robert Browning. This will be the first book in the burgeoning area of research into the relationship of music and literature that examines the societal perceptions of a figure central to civic life in Victorian England. This book is deliberately interdisciplinary and will be of special interest to literature scholars and students of Victorian studies, culture, society, religion, gender studies, and music. However, the nature of the text does not require specialist knowledge of music.

Recensioner i media

“The Organist in Victorian Literature is a short but deeply researched and highly readable foray into the interaction of music, literature, gender studies, aesthetics, religion and culture. Quinn has presented the tip of what appears to be a tantalizing iceberg of musical culture in Victorian England. … HlGHLY RECOMMENDED.” (Erik W. Goldstrom, The Journal of the Association of Anglican Musicians, Vol. 26, (7), September, 2017)
