The Oxford Handbook of Music and Medievalism

Abstract

Medievalism—broadly construed as the retrospective immersion in the images, sounds, narratives, and ideologies of the European Middle Ages—has left a powerful mark in both art music and popular music culture of the past two centuries. The Oxford Handbook of Music and Medievalism provides a snapshot of the growing field of medievalism in music by bringing together international scholars to explore a wide variety of past and present genres in which medievalism is present. The handbook is organized into six sections and takes up musical topics in the nineteenth, twentieth, and twenty-first centuries, in genres as far reaching as opera, orchestral music, film, musicals, heavy metal, folk rock, and video games.
