| Summary: | The only recent attempt at a complete life-and-works study in book form, this biography provides a wide-ranging survey of Bach's music, including much previously unpublished material. Ottenberg takes special care to set the music firmly within its context--social, intellectual, and aesthetic--and offers a wealth of information about Bach's interactions with noteworthy literary and philosophical figures. A final chapter is devoted to Bach's posthumous influence and reputation. |
