Andreas Dorschel, The Nineteenth Century. In: Tomás McAuley, Nanette Nielsen, Jerrold Levinson (Hrsg.): The Oxford Handbook of Western Music and Philosophy. Oxford University Press, Oxford – New York, NY 2021, S. 207–224, S. 207: "For a long time, accounts of aesthetic concerns during that century have focused on a conflict between authors who were sympathetic to either form or content in music, favouring either ‘absolute’ or ‘programme music’ respectively. That interpretation of the period, however, is worn out." Zugang bei Oxford Handbooks Online
Andreas Dorschel, The Nineteenth Century. In: Tomás McAuley, Nanette Nielsen, Jerrold Levinson (Hrsg.): The Oxford Handbook of Western Music and Philosophy. Oxford University Press, Oxford – New York, NY 2021, S. 207–224, S. 207: "Music seems to touch human beings more immediately than any other form of art; yet it is also an elaborately mediated phenomenon steeped in complex thought. The paradox of this ‘immediate medium’, discovered along with the eighteenth-century invention of ‘aesthetics’, features heavily in philosophy’s encounters with music during the nineteenth century. [...] It seems more fruitful now to unfold the paradox of the immediate medium through a web of alternative notions such as sound and matter, sensation and sense, habituation and innovation, imagination and desire, meaning and interpretation, body and gesture."
