  Exploring the music by category, and tracing Beethoven's vast development in style from the early to the later works, this text sets Beethoven's problems of patronage, the tragedy of his deafness, and many other aspects of his life and personality against the political and social upheavals of the time: the French Revolution and the Napoleonic wars. This reissue includes an updated bibliography.
