Focusing on the home, it shows how domestic music-making was shaped by socio-cultural forces while itself contributing to socio-cultural formation. The evidence examined is extremely broad, but particular attention is given to visual representations of music in paintings, drawings and prints: one hundred illustrations are discussed. The author considers in detail the problematics of imagery itself, analysing both the ideological and the semiotic content of the visual image. Other material analysed includes the music of the period, instruction manuals, tracts on education, courtesy and conduct books, sermons, letters, diaries and memoirs, fictional writing and journalism.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"sb-details\"\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGenre:\u003c\/strong\u003e History, Music\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublished:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1993\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 248\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/strong\u003e CUP Archive\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9780521448543\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"CUP Archive","offers":[{"title":"Poor Condition — £15.05","offer_id":47912022376625,"sku":"SB-0521448549-C4","price":15.05,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0618\/2669\/5345\/files\/0521448549.jpg?v=1789238629","url":"https:\/\/sellbooks.co.uk\/products\/music-and-image-domesticity-ideology-and-socio-cultural-formation-in-eighteenth-century-england","provider":"Sell Books .co.uk","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
