Von der Geheimhaltung zur internationalen und interdisziplinaren Forschung: Die Musikgeschichtliche Abteilung des Deutschen Historischen Instituts in Rom 1960 bis 2010

After its foundation on November 14, 1960, the Musicology Department of the German Historical Institute in Rome very soon developed into a forum for the interaction of experts in "Italian” and "German” musicology and became an important meeting place for researchers, both nationally and internationally. On the occasion of the Department’s 50th anniversary, this volume presents a collection of contributions that deal with its history and activities against the backdrop of academic and cultural-political discourses.
