| Abstract | This is a new edition of the author's famous study of Mahler's early life and music. On its first appearance in 1958, the book was greeted as a major advance in Mahler studies; over the succeeding years its reputation has steadily increased and there have been constant demands for its re-publication. The author's work set an entirely new standard in Mahler documentation and research, and it has inspired a whole generation of Mahler scholars and researchers. This new edition has been prepared by the author with the help of two distinguished Mahler scholars who have written a very substantial critical appendix. This appendix corrects and amplifies the author's classic text in the light of the latest Mahler scholarship and also contains a great deal of new material. This book will be warmly welcomed by everyone with a serious interest in the great Austrian composer. |
