ABSTRACT Jacques Barzun’s landmark biography Berlioz and the Romantic Century, (1950) identified a perceived problem in previous scholarship on Berlioz. Barzun held that authors from Adolphe Boschot to J.-G. Prod’homme had misrepresented (and sometimes even attempted to debunk) the composer, while not succeeding in addressing his music satisfactorily. Barzun’s biography constituted a reassessment not just of the subject himself, but also of the wider concept of Romanticism, which he believed had come to be narrowed to a stereotypical view of the nineteenth century and its associated artists. The book’s publication subsequently gave rise to factions in the musicological communities of the United States and the United Kingdom, and presented serious doubts about the supposedly sad state of musicology in mid-twentieth-century America.

雅克·巴尔赞 (Jacques Barzun) 的柏辽兹与浪漫世纪 (1950)：音乐学上的雷龙？

摘要 雅克·巴尔赞 (Jacques Barzun) 的里程碑式传记柏辽兹与浪漫世纪 (1950) 在先前关于柏辽兹的学术研究中发现了一个明显的问题。Barzun 认为作者从 Adolphe Boschot 到 J.-G. Prod'homme 歪曲了（有时甚至试图揭穿）作曲家，同时未能令人满意地解决他的音乐。巴尔赞的传记不仅是对主题本身的重新评估，也是对更广泛的浪漫主义概念的重新评估，他认为浪漫主义已被缩小为对 19 世纪及其相关艺术家的刻板印象。这本书的出版随后在美国和英国的音乐学界引起了派系，并对 20 世纪中叶美国音乐学所谓的悲惨状态提出了严重怀疑。
