520    "Beethoven's middle-period quartets, Opp. 59, 74 and 95, 
       are pieces that engage deeply with the aesthetic ideas of 
       their time. In the first full contextual study of these 
       works, Nancy November celebrates their uniqueness, 
       exploring their reception history and early performance. 
       In detailed analyses, she explores ways in which the 
       quartets have both reflected and shaped the very idea of 
       chamber music and offers a new historical understanding of
       the works' physical, visual, social and ideological 
       aspects. In the process, November provides a fresh 
       critique of three key paradigms in current Beethoven 
       studies: the focus on his late period; the emphasis on 
       'heroic' style in discussions of the middle period; and 
       the idea of string quartets as 'pure', 'autonomous' 
       artworks, cut off from social moorings. Importantly, this 
       study shows that the quartets encompass a new lyric and 
       theatrical impetus, which is an essential part of their 
       unique, explorative character"--|cProvided by publisher.
