Abstract

- Markus Rathey's aim in this volume is to emphasize the unity between sacred and secular in Bach’s society, and to ‘reconstruct the “social energy” the cantatas had in their original performance contexts’ (p. 9). He concludes: ‘This energy is not necessarily positive. Most of us will disagree with the concept of divinely ordained government … we cringe at the depiction of misogynistic stereotypes … and yet taking offence with them is part of the creative act of listening today’ (p. 14). The six central chapters consist of three previously published articles and three newly written. Framed by a short contextual ‘Introduction’, and an even shorter ‘Epilogue’, the reader gains a progressive understanding of the social confines within which Bach composed his non-liturgical cantatas.
