520 a| This book studies the community in which Bach spent the last, longest, and most prestigious part of his life: the Leipzig middle class. These essays by prominent musicologists and scholars of religious history and German culture highlight the dynamic religious, social, and political forces that emerged during the composer's lifetime. Using entertainment venues and all forms of commercially produced and distributed literature--"popular" in that world--as well as "official" documents, they explore Leipzig's distinctive middle-class public culture. Contemporary thought was fragmented, intellectually complex, and unable to assimilate the multiplicity of ideas, beliefs, and values that were simultaneously current. The ambiguities and transitional structures in that early modern world have contributed to the inconsistencies that are part of Bach's legacy. The essays are complemented by statements (never before translated) about Lutheran church music by two of Bach's close contemporaries, Gottfried Ephraim Scheibel and Johann Kuhnau.;
