Book excerpt: There is a macabre fascination in the spectacle of one so brilliant, dying so young, in such tragic circumstances. Was Mozart poisoned? Was he irresponsible and childish, dying from debauchery and dissipation? Did his wife contribute to his downfall? Was he driven to destruction by being ostracised as a rebel? Did his genius render him incapable of normal human contact and worldly prudence? Did he die because he had accomplished his mission as an artist and burnt himself out? Was he the victim of a run of bad luck? From 1791 to the present such stories have flourished; this book examines their development and the evidence for them.

Book Echoes of a Distant Crime

Download or read book Echoes of a Distant Crime written by H. S. Brockmeyer and published by . This book was released on 2009-10 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New Evidence of Murder * How Mozart was Murdered * Who Did It? * Where Mozart is Buried * Why Mozart was Murdered When H. S. Brockmeyer first became interested in Mozart and his tragic early death, she wasn't thinking of murder or any kind of foul play. Her curiosity was piqued, however, by all the unanswered questions that were overlooked by the scholars. As her interest grew and she began doing her own research, she was shocked to find more and more holes in the official story. She was hooked-and years later the result is this book. The damning facts about Mozart's tragic death are revealed in Echoes of a Distant Crime. This evidence has been available since his death in 1791; it has just been hidden in darkness-until now. Hint: Mozart was not killed by poison. Hint: Salieri didn't kill Mozart. Hint: Mozart is not buried in a pauper's grave-or any kind of grave-in the St. Marx cemetery in Vienna. An 18th century document holds an important clue to Mozart's life - and death - and is revealed in stunning detail in Brockmeyer's book, weaving a controversial, thoroughly researched tale of the composer's last two fatal years.

Book What About Mozart  What About Murder

Download or read book What About Mozart What About Murder written by Howard S. Becker and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2014-08-22 with total page 215 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1963, Howard S. Becker gave a lecture about deviance, challenging the then-conventional definition that deviance was inherently criminal and abnormal and arguing that instead, deviance was better understood as a function of labeling. At the end of his lecture, a distinguished colleague standing at the back of the room, puffing a cigar, looked at Becker quizzically and asked, “What about murder? Isn’t that really deviant?” It sounded like Becker had been backed into a corner. Becker, however, wasn’t defeated! Reasonable people, he countered, differ over whether certain killings are murder or justified homicide, and these differences vary depending on what kinds of people did the killing. In What About Mozart? What About Murder?, Becker uses this example, along with many others, to demonstrate the different ways to study society, one that uses carefully investigated, specific cases and another that relies on speculation and on what he calls “killer questions,” aimed at taking down an opponent by citing invented cases. Becker draws on a lifetime of sociological research and wisdom to show, in helpful detail, how to use a variety of kinds of cases to build sociological knowledge. With his trademark conversational flair and informal, personal perspective Becker provides a guide that researchers can use to produce general sociological knowledge through case studies. He champions research that has enough data to go beyond guesswork and urges researchers to avoid what he calls “skeleton cases,” which use fictional stories that pose as scientific evidence. Using his long career as a backdrop, Becker delivers a winning book that will surely change the way scholars in many fields approach their research.
